Is synthesising AgNP with polymer Co playing the role of reducing agent?

I need to get any reference paper available or chemistry behind it.

Hi,

Actually, cobalt is routinely found as Co(II) and Co(III) salts, the interesting complexes, as reducing agents, are Co(I) complexes. but in general, when we want to synthesize AgNPs or other metal nanoparticles, the routine reducing agents are used (e.g NaBH4, Sodium citrate and etc...). anyway, please find the attached papers I hope you will find it useful and practical.
