doping my activated carbons with silver nano-particles

    so, i've been thinking about doping my activated carbons with silver nano-particles. Should i pursue a graphite/carbon and acetlycarboxylicacid-silver complex and pyrolize at 300C or should i make a supernatant Ag-colloidal suspension, put in highly porous activated carbon and freeze-dry the material?

    the left over carbon product from either method would be used in battery electrodes/electrochemical cells specifically printed Ni-Fe, Ni-FeMH, and hydrogen generation chemistries . As well as Ni-Al,Carbon-Al, Carbon-Carbon,or Proton batteries

    the carbons i use are a ball milled combination of ZnCl microwave assisted activated carbon mixed with 45 micron conductive graphite powder.

    Mke colloidal silver, in a super natant solution and pour in your active carbon material then freeze-dry to get silver in carbon
