Nano Silver Vanadate AgVO3:Synthesis, New Functionalities and Applications

Abstract Silver vanadates have been widely investigated because of their many interesting properties and their potential use in several applications. In addition to this, a large number of groups have investigated silver vanadates in the form of nanostructures. Here, we address first the synthesis and properties of nanosilver vanadate. Different techniques, such as precipitation, thermal decomposition, hydrothermal treatment, and sol‐gel, are among the methods that have been employed for the controlled synthesis of silver vanadate. The use of nanosilver vanadate for the development of novel electronic devices, catalysts, and antibacterial agents for industry and biomedical applications will then be discussed. In this sense, the present review highlights the major advances regarding the synthesis, properties and applications of nanostructured silver vanadates. Silver vanadates are important nanomaterials for novel electronic devices, catalysts and antibacterial agent. In this context, the current personal account describes recent progress in the synthesis, new functionalities and applications.
