Abstract Silver nanoparticles with different sizes have been prepared by microemulsion and have been surface-modified with C12H25SH. Electron spin resonance results indicate that there exist some kinds of surface local paramagnetic sites in capped Ag nanoparticles, which leads to the relation between electron spin resonance parameters and particle size deviating from Kawabata's description. There is a strong interaction between nanosilver and chloroform. The smaller the particles, the stronger the interaction. Transmission electron microscopy and ultravilolet-visible absorption spectra confirmed that Ag nanoparticles are well dispersed in chloroform, implying that a good dispersity of Ag nanoparticles in polymers could be obtained by means of solution mixing by using chloroform as the solvent.
