A multistage centrifugal atomizer comprises an outer shell that contains an inlet port and an outlet port and that encloses a tundish, a first inclined rotating surface and a second inclined rotating surface. The first inclined rotating surface is opposedly disposed to the second inclined rotating surface. The inlet is used to introduce a molten material into the multistage atomizer and the outlet is used to remove ultrafine particles having a D50 of less than 20 micrometers.

The present invention is directed to a method to produce silver nanoparticles. The method includes the steps of dropwise addition of silver nitrate solution to a carboxymethyl cellulose solution (1%) while stirring. The solution is subjected to ultrasonic irradiation for 30 minutes. The first indication of silver nanoparticles being synthesized can be change in the color of the solution to yellowish-brown after Ultrasonication. The solution can thereafter be subjected to microwave irradiations. After the predetermined duration, the produced silver nanoparticles can be separated from the solution. The nanoparticles can be washed and freeze dried.
