Abstract

Adsorption and catalytic properties of gold nanoparticles of various sizes prepared by two methods of reduction in reverse micellar solutions were studied. Gold nanoparticles are capable of adsorbing molecular hydrogen and exhibiting catalytic activity in reactions of ortho—para conversion of protium and deuterium—hydrogen exchange. The size dependence of the catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in reaction of H2—D2 exchange regardless of the method of preparation was determined.
