title: Preparation and stability of silver/kerosene nanofluids.
abstract: A series of silver nanoparticles surface-coated with di-n-dodecyldithiophosphate, di-n-cetyldithiophosphate, or di-n-octadecyldithiophosphate have been prepared and have good dispersity in alkanes or kerosene. Stable silver nanofluids can be formed in alkanes or kerosene with the surface-coated silver nanoparticles. Thermal stability of the silver nanofluids has been measured at different temperatures. The effects of the silver nanoparticles on the thermal oxidation of kerosene have been investigated at different temperatures. The coatings can be released from the surface of the silver nanoparticles above 150°C, giving oxygen access to the silver core and inhibiting the kerosene oxidized by oxygen.
