General description

Silver trifluoroacetate is the silver salt of trifluoroacetic acid and appears as a light-yellow crystalline powder. Its excellent solubility in water, acetone, and ethanol makes it easy to handle in solution-based processes. It is often used as a silver source for creating thin films on electronic substrates via techniques like spin-coating, dip-coating, or spray-coating, forming conductive silver layers.

Application

Silver trifluoroacetate is used
  • As a precursor to synthesize ultrasmall icosahedral silver nanoparticles with precise size control and high monodispersed, ideal for advanced applications in plasmonic sensing, nanoelectronics, and biomedical diagnostics.
  • As a co-precursor to promote the formation of silver nanocluster nodes, enabling the controlled self-assembly of coordination polymers designed for advanced applications in optoelectronics and molecular sensing.
  • As a silver source to coat gold ultrathin nanorods with a single atomic silver layer, fine-tuning their optical properties for use in plasmonic sensing and nanophotonic.
  • As a bifunctional reagent and it serves as both a convenient in situ CO source and an oxidant in the reaction.

Features and Benefits

High silver loading (48.7%) increases the availability of active sites for catalysis, leading to more efficient conversion of reactants into products as more Silver atoms are involved in the reaction.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
