Abstract
This approach provides a new technique to synthesize silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using CO(2)-expanded liquids (CXLs) as the processing medium. A soluble form of silver carboxylate, silver isostearate (AgISt), was synthesized and characterized. The XRD and DSC analyses indicated that the methylated branched alky chains in AgISt exhibited a steric hindrance to impede the growth of layered structure of AgISt molecules, which led to the high solubility of AgISt in nonpolar solvents. By using AgISt as silver precursor, AgNPs of 2.64 +/- 0.51 nm in diameter were synthesized in CO(2)-expanded heptane with H(2) as the reducing agent. The ATR-FTIR analysis showed that the produced AgNPs were capped with isostearic acid, which was derived from the reduction of AgISt. Hence, the isostearic acid capped AgNPs were well-dispersed in heptane to form a stable silver organosol.

Abstract
Cobalt and nickel salts of the highly branched trichain anionic surfactant sodium 1,4-bis(neopentyloxy)-3-(neopentyloxycarbonyl)-1,4-dioxobutane-2-sulfonate (TC14) are shown to be soluble in dense CO(2) at concentrations up to 6 wt % at 500 bar pressure. This is a remarkably high solubility for such hydrocarbon transition metal surfactants in CO(2). High-pressure small-angle neutron scattering (HP-SANS) has been used to study the surfactant aggregates in a normal organic solvent, cyclohexane, dense CO(2), and also mixtures of these two pure solvents. The results show that transition metal TC14 derivatives are viable compounds for incorporating reactive and functional metal ions into CO(2).

Abstract
The effect of improving "solvent quality" of pure liquid CO(2) with a heptane cosolvent on the phase behavior and micellization of commercially available surfactants has been explored using high-pressure small-angle neutron scattering (HP-SANS). The nonionic C(12)E(5) was found to be highly soluble in both pure CO(2) and the solvent blends, but no aggregation was detected by HP-SANS for any of the compositions studied, even up to 12 vol % surfactant. On the other hand, improving CO(2) solvent quality by adding heptane above 30 vol % promoted solubility and aggregate formation with normal sodium bis(ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT). The solvent quality index Hildebrand solubility parameter, used to predict surfactant aggregation in pure hydrocarbon solvents (Langmuir, 2008, 24 (21), 12235-12240) has been tested here for CO(2)-heptane mixtures. The results show how solubility and efficiency of AOT, a commercially viable, well-known, and commonly used surfactant, can be boosted in alkane-containing CO(2)-rich fluids compared to pure CO(2) alone.

Abstract
The development of more efficient and environmentally benign methods for the synthesis and manipulation of nanomaterials has been a major focus of research among the scientific community. Supercritical (ScFs) and near-critical fluids (NcFs) offer numerous advantages over conventional solvents for these purposes. Among them, ScFs and NcFs offer dramatic reductions in the volume of organic waste typically generated during advanced material processes with the feasibility of changing a number of physicochemical properties by discrete variations in solvent pressure or temperature. In this work, we study the dispersibility of gold nanocrystals with a 3.7 nm core size stabilized by different ligand shells in NcF ethane and propane over a wide range of densities by fine-tuning the pressure of these fluids. Dispersibility vs density plots are obtained by following the variation in the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption spectra of the nanoparticles. To understand the results obtained in this study, three models are briefly discussed: the total interaction theory, the sedimentation coefficient equation, and the Chrastil method. The dispersibility and behavior of the nanocrystals with variations in fluid density are strongly dependent on the surface chemistry of the nanocrystal and the solvent employed. A correlation between measured dispersibility values and calculated sedimentation coefficients was observed in both compressed solvents. In addition, we successfully applied the Chrastil equation to predict and describe the dispersibility of gold nanocrystals with different shells as a function of density, determining that the reason for the high stabilities of some of the nanocrystal dispersions is the strong solvent-nanocrystal interactions. While NcF propane showed higher nanocrystal dispersibilities, using NcF ethane led to improved tunability of nanoparticle dispersions formed in the pressure range studied. Therefore, with a judicious selection of the fluid, NcFs seem to offer a remarkable advantage over conventional solvents for manipulation of nanomaterials, which could be applied to transport, purification, and separation of nanocrystals.

Abstract
The ability to process and purify engineered nanomaterials using near critical or supercritical fluids (NcFs or ScFs) has enormous potential for the application at various stages of the development of green nanomaterials. The dispersibility of octanethiol-stabilized gold nanocrystals of different core sizes is explored, which were chosen to serve as model nanomaterials of general interest in compressed ethane and propane over a wide range of fluid conditions. Both solvents have enormous potential for the environmentally benign processing and transport of engineered nanomaterials due to their nominal toxicity and high degree of tunability and processability that can essentially eliminate solvent waste. The dispersibility is determined by measuring the absorption spectra of dispersions of various sizes of nanocrystals in NcFs. To better understand the obtained results three models, the total interaction theory, the sedimentation coefficient equation, and the Chrastil method, are discussed. Nanoparticle dispersibility versus density plots are strongly dependent on nanoparticle size and solvent conditions, with the dispersion of larger nanocrystals more dependent on changes of pressure or density at a given temperature. For the range of nanoparticle sizes studied, compressed ethane at 25 degrees C leads to a greater tunability of nanoparticle dispersion when compared with compressed propane at 65 degrees C. For equivalent pressures, compressed propane is found to provide better solubility than ethane due to its higher density. The results quantitatively demonstrate that NcFs can offer pressure-tunable, size-selective control of nanoparticle solvation and transport at easily obtainable temperature and pressure conditions. These capabilities provide clear advantages over conventional solvents and direct application to various nanomaterials processes, such as synthesis, separation, transport, and purification of nanocrystals.

We report the one pot synthesis of a silver-polymer nanocomposite in supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO(2)) whereby an organometallic silver complex is thermally decomposed in the presence of a reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) agent during a polymerisation reaction in which the RAFT agent simultaneously stabilises the growing polymer microparticles and the formation of surface located silver nanoparticles.
