We report an original and scalable synthesis pathway to produce encapsulated gold nanoparticles. Precise control of the gold particles is achieved in the range of 1-10 nm through the impregnation of silicalite-1 with a controlled concentration of gold solution, followed by dissolution-recrystallization of the zeolite.
