Modeling of Formation of Gold Nanoparticles by Citrate Method

TL;DR: In this article, a detailed kinetic model is developed on the basis of these steps and is combined with population balance to predict particle-size distribution, which is able to explain the unusual dependence of the mean particle size on the ratio of citrate to gold salt concentration, while subsequent increases in the ratio hardly have any effect on the size.
