In this report, a continuous stirring tank reactor (CSTR) and batch reactor were used for synthesis of silver (Ag) plates. The influences of agitation speed, molar ratio of AgNO3 to NaCl, and concentration of reagent were investigated. Size analysis demonstrated that the size of Ag plates synthesized by the CSTR was larger than the size of plates synthesized by the batch reactor. The reason might be that low concentration of reagent and continuous supply of monomer in CSTR are more favorable for growth of anisotropic structures. CSTR demonstrates good advantages for mass synthesis of Ag plates of large size.

Keywords:Ag plates;Continuous;flow synthesis;CSTR;Batch reactor
