Techniques that decrease the amount of Pt are therefore needed. In this study, Pt nanoparticles instead of Pt plating film were supported on a substrate of acrylonitrile\u2013butadiene\u2013styrene copolymer (ABS). This was achieved by the reduction of Pt ions in an aqueous solution containing the ABS substrate using high-energy electron-beam irradiation. Pt nanoparticles supported on the ABS substrate (Pt-particle\/ABS) had a size of 4\u201310 nm. The amount of Pt required for Pt-particle\/ABS was 250 times less than that required for an ABS substrate covered with Pt plating film (Pt-film\/ABS). The catalytic activity for H2O2 decomposition was estimated by measuring the residual H2O2 concentration after immersing the catalyst for 360 min. The Pt-particle\/ABS catalyst had a considerably higher specific catalytic activity for H2O2 decomposition than the Pt-film\/ABS catalyst. In addition, sterilization performance was estimated from the initial rate of H2O2 decomposition over 60 min. The Pt-particle\/ABS catalyst demonstrated a better sterilization performance than the Pt-film\/ABS catalyst. The difference between Pt-particle\/ABS and Pt-film\/ABS was shown to reflect the size of the O2 bubbles formed during H2O2 decomposition.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/nano7090235","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,23]],"date-time":"2017-08-23T11:32:27Z","timestamp":1503487947000},"page":"235","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Radiolytic Synthesis of Pt-Particle\/ABS Catalysts for H2O2 Decomposition in Contact Lens Cleaning"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Yuji","family":"Ohkubo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tomonori","family":"Aoki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Satoshi","family":"Seino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Osamu","family":"Mori","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Menicon Co., Ltd., Kasugai, Aichi 487-0032, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Issaku","family":"Ito","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Menicon Co., Ltd., Kasugai, Aichi 487-0032, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Katsuyoshi","family":"Endo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuya","family":"Yamamura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Graduate School of Engineering, Osaka University, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,8,23]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"18","article-title":"Strong growth in some segments and a few surprises highlight a year of modest gains overall","volume":"31","author":"Nichols","year":"2016","journal-title":"Contact Lens Spectr."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"91","DOI":"10.1097\/00006324-198802000-00005","article-title":"Ocular response to hydrogen peroxide","volume":"65","author":"Paugh","year":"1988","journal-title":"Am.
