1. Metal nanoparticles: synthesis and characterization
Metal nanoparticles (M-NPs) are currently emerging as a new class of catalysts, due to their different properties from the mono- or polynuclear complexes typically encountered in homogeneous catalysis, but also different from metal surfaces.
The term nanocatalysis has recently been introduced to designate the use of these M-NPs as catalysts, mainly applied so far to oxidation catalysis by activation of molecular oxygen O

, but also reduction catalysis in the presence of heteroelement hydrides such as boron, environmental catalysis (transformation of CO and NO

in exhaust gases), or fuel cells and energy storage
