Gold Nanoparticle Surface Modification
This aminoalkanethiol is employed to introduce amino functionalities onto gold nanoparticle surfaces. The long hydrocarbon chain enhances the stability of the resulting self-assembled monolayer (SAM) through increased van der Waals interactions.
Biomaterial Conjugation
The terminal amino groups on the modified gold surface can readily react with amine-reactive biomolecules, such as proteins, antibodies, or other biological entities, enabling the development of biosensors and diagnostic tools.
Materials Science Research
Utilised in materials science for creating functionalised surfaces and interfaces. Its ability to form stable SAMs on noble metals makes it valuable for advanced research in nanotechnology and surface engineering.

| Application | This aminoalkanethiol can be utilized for the surface modification of gold nanoparticles. The amino groups introduced by the aminoalkanethiols on the gold surface are usually modified with amine reactive materials such as proteins or other biomaterials. The longer alkane chain helps form a more stable self-assembled monolayer (SAM) on a gold surface due to the greater Van-der-Waals forces between alkane chains. |
