For how many days we can store the growth solution prepared using CTAB and gold chloride trihydrate for preparation of gold nanoparticles?
I am attaching herewith the related paper.
The AuNPs prepared by electrolysis may be stored for more than 100 years.
But the stability of AuNPs prepared by chemical reduction in laboratory is usually between 1 to 6 months.
However, several other factors also affect stability factor.
I do not know the answer, but I assume you will test this by aging the solution over time, and I would be very interested in the results if you could please post them to this thread.
Generally in closed conditions gold nanoparticles are stable for 3-4 months. But better you should check by keeping small quantity. Although in cold conditions AuNPs tend to aggregate after a certain time.
