Shape-controlled synthesis of micro-/nanosized Cu particles with spherical and polyhedral shapes using the polyol process.

ABSTRACT: This study reports the synthesis of Cu micro-/nanosized particles through the polyol process. Cu particles were synthesized by reducing copper(ii) chloride in ethylene glycol (EG), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), and potassium bromide (KBr) at low temperatures with or without the use of sodium borohydride (NaBH₄).
