Abstract

Catalysts play a pivotal role in modern industries, such as energy, pharmaceuticals, and petrochemicals, serving as cornerstone of high-tech production. Noble metals, such as gold, silver, and platinum group elements, possess the superb catalytic characteristics of high-temperature oxidation resistance, corrosion resistance, stable electrochemical performance, high catalytic activity, and so on. These characteristics offer excellent prospects for applications in catalysis. In this review, we summarize innovative approaches to regulating the size and morphology of nano-noble metal catalysts with different dimensions. We also showcase typical prominent examples of their applications in exhaust gas purification, battery manufacturing, water splitting, and selective hydrogenation. Finally, perspectives are discussed in terms of future research opportunities in the realm of noble metal nanocatalysts.
