Description

Polyacrylamide (PAA) and amine-functionalized PAA (AFPAA) nanoparticles with disulfonated 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenantroline ruthenium (Ru(dpp(SO3)2)3) have been prepared. The nanoparticles produced have a hydrodynamic radius of 20-25 nm. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/B6THH-481FTC4-2/1/9db4d2eedbe42cd6c45bf47beaa06810
