Abstract

A series of tannic acid (TA)-modified cellulose hydrogels embedded size-controlled AgCl nanoparticles (AgCl@TA_x-cellulose hydrogels) were fabricated successfully via a one-step method. The size of AgCl nanoparticles in the TA-cellulose hydrogels could be adjusted expediently by varying the TA content. With the increase of TA content, the size of AgCl nanoparticles initially decreased and reached the minimum size of 5.5 nm at 5% TA content and then increased dramatically. The hydrogels with the smallest AgCl nanoparticles exhibited excellent catalytic activity in NaBH₄-mediated reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP); the reaction rate constant was as high as 1.383 min⁻¹. It should be noted that NaBH₄ played a double role in the reduction of 4-NP presented here, i.e., in-situ reduction of AgCl to Ag nanoparticles and successive reduction of 4-NP over the resultant Ag@TA_x-cellulose hydrogels. In such a way, the strategy of “catalysis along with reduction” provided a novel path for catalytic systems involving noble metal catalysts. Also, the above AgCl@TA_x-cellulose hydrogels exhibited good catalytic activity for NaBH₄-mediated reduction of various organic dyes following the procedure of “catalysis along with reduction”.
