High-purity, regularly shaped nanostructured gold-carbon composites with high specific surface area and porosity were obtained via the reduction of hydrogen tetrachloroaurate (III) by highly porous matrices developed with the authors' participation. The effect of gold content and porous structure parameters of matrices on the formation topography, size and shape of filler particles, and parameters of the porous structure of gold-carbon composites was studied. It was revealed that surface the decoration of matrix pores with gold particles takes place as HAuCl 4 is reduced by Kemerit and Carbonizat highly porous carbon matrices.
