Synthesis and catalytic activity of metal nanoclusters inside functional resins: an endeavour lasting 15 years.
Cross-linked functional polymers (functional resins) are versatile, designable and useful supports for metal nanoclusters that are able to provide reasonably thermally and mechanically stable multi-functional metal catalysts characterized by good activity and selectivity. The paper reviews authors' contributions to the field from the early 1990s to the present.
