This paper reports obtaining the new silver-containing nanocomposites based on the ion
exchangers with the controlled size of metal nanoparticles and metal content. The redox sorption of
oxygen dissolved in water by silver-containing nanocomposites with metal particles of different sizes and
metal content is considered. The kinetic study showed that the rate of molecular oxygen reduction
increases with the decrease of silver nanoparticles size and silver content in the NC.
