Abstract

Organic cross-linked functional polymers (OCPs) have been exploited since long time for many industrial chemical uses and the annual consumption of ion-exchange resins for water treatment alone is in hundreds and thousand tons world wide [1] and [2]. Their utilization as catalyst carriers in laboratories as well as in a number of industrial processes is also quite important, as they offer potentially much higher capacity for the supported functionality than the conventional inorganic carriers. Acid catalysis is apparently the most important catalytic application of OCPs, but their use will probably grow significantly in the fields of biocatalysis [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9] and [10] and of supported metal catalysis [11], [12], [13], [14] and [15].
