| Abstract Scope |
Considerable progress has been made recently toward the design and synthesis of highly active nanocatalysts with tunable particle shapes and sizes. The larger surface-to-volume ratios of nanoscale catalysts compared to their bulk counterparts makes them attractive candidates for many chemical reactions. Since over 80% of all chemical reactions involve the use of catalysts, state-of-the-art advances in this field is highly desired. Noble metals, platinum and palladium nanoparticles are important in many applications because of their extraordinary physical and chemical properties. Palladium and platinum are some of the most widely used for industrial applications because they have extraordinary physical and chemical properties and withstand harsh environments. This presentation will describe a variety of procedures used to create shape-selective nanocatalysts. Their catalytic applications will be described in detail. |
