Platinum nanoparticles were synthesized by radiation chemical reduction in solutions of reverse micelles for the modification of Nafion films. The effect of the degree of solubilization and sizes of water pools of micelles on nanoparticle formation was shown. The platinum nanoparticle size in the polymer matrix does not exceed 10 nm.
