Study on the Mechanism of the Reversible Color Change of Polyacrylic Acid Modified Gold Nanoparticles Responding to pH

In view of various explanations regarding the pH response of the nanocomposite of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) modified with polyacrylic acid (PAA) molecules in reported literature, in this work, AuNPs with a size of 20 nm saturatedly loaded with PAA molecules (AuNPs-PAAs) were used to investigate the...
