There are several types of nanocatalysts, including:
Metal Nanoparticles: These are commonly used due to their high catalytic activity. Examples include gold, platinum, and palladium nanoparticles. Metal Oxide Nanoparticles: These are used in various catalytic processes, such as oxidation and reduction reactions. Carbon-based Nanocatalysts: Materials like carbon nanotubes and graphene can serve as catalysts or catalyst supports. Bimetallic Nanoparticles: These combine two different metals to enhance catalytic properties through synergistic effects.
