This book combines theoretical description of the metal–oxide interface and its fabrication with the current state of the art in characterization and applications. The book takes a holistic approach that allows the reader to approach this complex field of research from many different angles, to reach new conclusions and develop new methods and materials. Metal oxide supported metal particles are used in multiple environmental and pharmaceutical applications in the areas of materials engineering, physics, and catalysis, but their performance varies depending on the particular synthesis methods, applications, the size and kind of oxides and metal clusters, and surface properties. Metal oxides display various crystalline structures and morphologies (such as nanorods and nanosheets) each of which can result in different properties. While multiple ways of producing and characterizing metal oxide-supported nanomaterials and interfaces have been developed, depending on the application scientists often tend to use familiar methods that are traditionally applicable to their field. This book presents approaches to these materials from a diverse range of perspectives to provide a ready resource for researchers in materials science, engineering, physics, and chemistry to learn about the latest developments in the field. It elaborates how different synthesis techniques from different fields can be applied to metal oxide supported metal nanoparticles, in the belief that presenting knowledge from different perspectives can offer new insights into nanomaterials design. In addition to synthesis and characterization, recent uses of metal oxide supported metal nanoparticles are presented, including applications in the catalysis, photocatalysis, energy, and sensor fields.• Provides a theoretical description of the metal–oxide interface and its atomic phenomena• Describes synthesis methods and the physical background of relevant experimental techniques• Explores advanced characterization of metal oxide supported metal nanoparticles and their use at the forefront of current research• Discusses the main applications of metal oxide supported metal nanoparticles

Catalysis is a central topic in chemical transformation and energy conversion. Thanks to the spectacular achievements of colloidal chemistry and the synthesis of nanomaterials over the last two decades, there have also been significant advances in nanoparticle catalysis. Catalysis on different metal nanostructures with well-defined structures and composition has been extensively studied. Metal nanocrystals synthesized with colloidal chemistry exhibit different catalytic performances in contrast to metal nanoparticles prepared with impregnation or deposition precipitation. Additionally, theoretical approaches in predicting catalysis performance and understanding catalytic mechanism on these metal nanocatalysts have made significant progress. Metal Nanoparticles for Catalysis is a comprehensive text on catalysis on Nanoparticles, looking at both their synthesis and applications. Chapter topics include nanoreactor catalysis; Pd nanoparticles in C-C coupling reactions; metal salt-based gold nanocatalysts; theoretical insights into metal nanocatalysts; and nanoparticle mediated clock reaction. This book bridges the gap between nanomaterials synthesis and characterization, and catalysis. As such, this text will be a valuable resource for postgraduate students and researchers in these exciting fields.

Metal Oxide Nanoparticles in Organic Solvents discusses recent advances in the chemistry involved for the controlled synthesis and assembly of metal oxide nanoparticles, the characterizations required by such nanoobjects, and their size and shape depending properties. In the last few years, a valuable alternative to the well-known aqueous sol-gel processes was developed in the form of nonaqueous solution routes. Metal Oxide Nanoparticles in Organic Solvents reviews and compares surfactant- and solvent-controlled routes, as well as providing an overview of techniques for the characterization of metal oxide nanoparticles, crystallization pathways, the physical properties of metal oxide nanoparticles, their applications in diverse fields of technology, and their assembly into larger nano- and mesostructures. Researchers and postgraduates in the fields of nanomaterials and sol-gel chemistry will appreciate this book’s informative approach to chemical formation mechanisms in relation to metal oxides.

This timely publication bridges and presents the latest trends and updates in three hot topics of current and future society: nanomaterials, energy and environment. It provides the state-of-the-art as well as current challenges and advances in the sustainable preparation of metal nanoparticles and their applications. The book fills a critical gap in a multidisciplinary area of high economic, social and environmental importance. Currently, there are no books published that deal with these ever increasing important topics, as most books in this area focus on a particular topic (eg. nanomaterials or catalysis or energy or environment). This is the first multidisciplinary edited book covering the very basics to the more advanced, trendy developments, containing a unique blend of nano, green, renewable and bio.
