Abstract

In this chapter we present recent advances in synthesis, characterization, optical, catalytic and physico-chemical properties of nanoscale materials with potential applications in fuel cells processes. In particular, this review and original research focuses on the catalytic properties of noble metal nanoparticles (e.g., platinum, gold and silver) as a function of particles morphology and composition (e.g., isotropic and anisotropic, solid, hollow and core-shell structures, and monoand bi- metallic compositions, supported and unsupported).
