Abstract Homogeneous and uniform-sized silver nanoparticles were obtained by reduction of insoluble silver halides. As the stabilizing reagent, a small cationic thiol, thiocholine bromide, was used. Even from large crystals of silver halides, nanosized particles were obtained. Under the optimum conditions, highly monodispersed nanoparticles with relative standard deviation of less than 7% were obtained.
