Abstract:Fresh and aged silver-epoxy nanocomposites were dispersed in aprotic solvents having different dielectric constants (ε) like Acetone (Ace), N, N-dimethylformamide (DMF), and dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO). Different colors and hues of the dispersions depending on the dielectric constant of the solvents were observed, suggesting a solvatochromic behavior. Aggregated and isolated triangular silver nanoprisms with sharp corners were predominant for fresh and aged dispersions in Acetone (ε = 21.0), respectively. Wherea… Show more
