Generation of Size‐Controlled Pd⁰ Nanoclusters inside Nanoporous Domains of Gel‐Type Resins: Diverse and Convergent Evidence That Supports a Strategy of Template‐Controlled Synthesis

Abstract

Resin molds for clusters: The nanoporous domains of a gel-type microporous functional resin are used as templates for the production of size-controlled Pd0 nanoclusters, the size of which is governed by the largest mesh available (see picture). Inverse steric exclusion chromatography provides the quantitative estimate of resin nanoporosity in its swollen state.
