Abstract:
1. A method for producing a continuous metal nanoparticle body, which comprises adsorbing a metal ion-containing compound to a porous support comprising an organic material (step A), reducing the adsorbed metal ion-containing compound to form metal nanoparticles on the support (step B), subjecting the support to a carbonization treatment, the carbonization treatment being carried out after step A so as to produce a carbonaceous solid support adsorbing and carrying the ion-containing compound thereon, or the carbonization treatment being carried out after step B so as to produce a carbonaceous solid support adsorbing and carrying the metal nanoparticles thereon, and removing the support to form a continuous metal nanoparticle body by at least one treatment selected from oxygen plasma treatments, ozone oxidation treatments, and burning treatments (step C).
