經由紫外光及熱誘導法，在聚甲基丙烯酸甲酯(PMMA)的高分子奈米電紡絲纖維中，包裹製備奈米銀粒子。藉由採用這種定位合成奈米粒子的方法，可以穩定奈米粒子，防止進一步凝聚成更大的粒子。製備高分子奈米纖維團，是先調配PMMA和金屬前驅物(AgNO3)在MEK/methanol(1:1)的混合溶解溶劑，再搭配電紡絲的製程。當這些高分子奈米纖維被施以紫外光源的照射或熱處理的方式，銀離子就被還原成銀原子。這些包裹在高分子奈米纖維中的奈米粒子在不同的前驅物濃度、照光時間、加熱時間以及加熱溫度下的形成位置和大小，在紫外可見光譜儀、穿透式和掃瞄式電子顯微鏡等儀器的輔助下，加以分析研究。此外，在本論文中亦探討不同參數對於PMMA高分子電紡絲形態所造成的影響。

Silver nanoparticles were fabricated and encapsulated in electrospun polymer nanofibers via the solid-state synthetic approach. Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanofibers were first prepared by the electrospinning process from a solution containing PMMA and metal precursors (AgNO3). Co-solvent systems were employed in order to optimize the electrospinning processes and fiber diameters. Reduction reactions of metal precursors were then conducted by the UV irradiation or the heat treatment directly to the solidified fiber mats. In this research work, silver nanoparticles encapsulated in electrospun polymer fibers were synthesized and investigated in terms of experimental parameters which influence the transformation of polymer solutions into nanofibers during electrospinning, including PMMA concentrations, applied voltages, flow rates and AgNO3 concentrations. Through heat treatments or UV irradiations, encapsulated silver nanoparticles synthesized from different precursor concentrations, heating times, heating temperatures or exposure time were also investigated in SEM, TEM and UV-visible spectroscopy.
