abstract = "Hydrogel nanocomposites of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) and crosslinked poly(N-vinyl-2-
pyrrolidone) (PVP) were synthesized in situ by a novel electrochemical method. PVP
hydrogels, crosslinked by gamma-irradiation, were swollen in the solution containing
0.1 M KNO3 and 3.9 mM AgNO3. PVP polymer matrix nanocavities were used as
nanoreactors for AgNPs synthesis. The reduction of silver cations was performed using
two-Pt-electrode electrochemical cell. The polarity of the electrodes was changed on the
half of the implementation time, enabling the Ag+ ions reduction in the bulk. Cyclic
voltammetry (CV) was performed in a three-electrode electrochemical cell, using the
saturated calomel electrode (SCE) as a reference. Ag/PVP nanocomposites were
scanned by CV immediately after the synthesis and after drying followed by reswelling in
0.1 M KNO3. Ag/PVP was compared with CVs of the following systems: Pt electrode in
0.1 M KNO3; Pt/PVP system in 0.1 M KNO3; Ag/Pt system in 0.1 M KNO3 + 3.9 mM
AgNO3 solution.",
