MARTIN, Nancy; VINIEGRA, Margarita; VARGAS, Rubicelia  and  GARZA, Jorge. Nanostructured oxides of transition metals with applications in catalysis. Mundo nano [online]. 2021, vol.14, n.26, 00002.  Epub Mar 03, 2021. ISSN 2448-5691.  https://doi.org/10.22201/ceiich.24485691e.2021.26.69632.

A summary of the factor that significantly affect the catalytic properties of transition metal oxides is presented. Among these factors we can mention the particle size, its shape, its chemical composition, the metal-support interaction and the metal-reactive interaction. agglomerates or nanoparticles) and correlate them with your behavior in different reactions. Recent research has shown that it is possible to control some of them by means of a well-controlled synthesis, a deep characterization, and theoretical studies of the catalysts, which allows to know the electronic and geometric structures of the metal catalysts (such as simple atoms, nano agglomerates or nanoparticles) and correlate them with your behavior in different reactions.

Keywords : metal oxides catalysts; nanostructured oxides of transition metals; electronic structure of transition metals; transition metals nanoparticles; band-gap energy.
