Definitions
- the present invention relates to a process for preparing anisotropic metal nanoparticles and to anisotropic metal nanoparticles thus obtained.

Mater. 2002, 14, 4736 ; Nano Lett. 2002, 2, 165 ) and it is based in the reduction of AgNO 3 in the presence of Pt seeds and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) as protecting agent to avoid aggregation.
