The nanoparticles have to be coated to anode in electrochemical method. How those nanoparticles can be coated on the electrode(anode)? let me know the procedure for it.
For cost-effective nanoparticle coating on electrodes, consider drop-casting, electrophoretic deposition, or spray coating. Surface functionalization of nanoparticles with polymers improves adhesion. Adding a binder like Nafion during drop-casting further enhances stability, but optimization and characterization are crucial for success.
Yes, various coating procedures are available for nanoparticles to enhance stability, biocompatibility, and targeted delivery. Common methods include physical adsorption, where polymers (e.g., PEG, chitosan) or surfactants electrostatically bind to the nanoparticle surface, and covalent functionalization, which involves chemical bonding of ligands, antibodies, or functional groups via click chemistry, EDC/NHS coupling, or thiol-gold interactions. Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly enables sequential deposition of oppositely charged polyelectrolytes, while plasma polymerization and silanization provide surface modifications with controlled thickness. The choice of coating method depends on the nanoparticle composition, intended application, and desired functional properties.
