| Abstract | Aggregation of nanoparticles often prohibits the decrement of particle size. To overcome this problem, nanoparticles are generally dispersed on support materials where polymers are commonly used [Sreedhar et al., 2009]. Recently, there is considerable interest in exploiting natural polymer macrostructures, in particular those of polysaccharides, to create highperformance and environmentally friendly catalysts that are chemically stable but biodegradable. Polysaccharide’s (PSH), such as gelatin [Tseng et al., 2009; Tseng et al., 2012], starch [Mishra et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2011] and Gum arabic [Jitianu and Goia, 2007; Liu et al., 2012] were particularly interesting since their chains contain a large number of functional groups that are able to coordinate with the metal ions leading to a homogeneous dispersion of the cations in the PSH [Preda et al., 2013]. |
