| Abstract | Nanomaterial (NM) aggregation is a key process determining their environmental, fate behavior and effects. Nanomaterials are typically engineered to remain kinetically stable; however, in environmental and toxicological media, NMs are prone to aggregation. The aggregation kinetics of NM is typically quantified by measuring their attachment efficiency ( ) and critical coagulation concentration (CCC). Several studies measured and CCC for Ag NMs with a major focus on investigating the effects of ionic strength, ion valency and natural organic matter, with few studies investigating other environmental factors such as light and dissolved oxygen and none investigating the effect of particle size, buffer type and concentration, or surface coverage by capping agent. A survey of recent research articles reporting CCC values for Ag NMs reveals substantial variation in experimental conditions and particle stability with CCC values of monovalent and divalent counterions covering a wide range (ca. 25 to infinity for monovalent counterions and 1.6 to infinity for divalent counterions). Here, we rationalize the differences in the CCC values for Ag NMs based on the variability in the experimental conditions, which includes NM and medium physicochemical properties. Capping agents determines NM stability mechanism with citrate, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and alginate stabilizing NM by electrostatic mechanism; whereas polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), casein, dextrin, tween, branched polyethyleneimine (BPEI), and Gum Arabic stabilizing NMs by steric mechanisms. The CCC values for Ag NMs with different capping agents follow the order citrateâ ¼alginateâ ¼SDS |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
