| Sumario: | Metal nanoparticles (MNPs) are the main agents in heterogeneous catalysis. Hence, utilizing the effective physico-chemical methods to engage them to achieve the highest catalysts performance with well-controlled size, shape, and surface properties seems to be essential. The encapsulation of metal nanoparticles is a promising approach that enhances the catalytic activity of the materials. Not only the encapsulating structures can adjust the catalytic properties of metal nanoparticles, particularly selectivity, but also prevents them from agglomeration and sintering. In this chapter, the various encapsulating structures consist of yolk/core-shell and mesoporous structures, and encapsulating materials that are divided into three parts, including inorganic materials, metal–organic frameworks, and organic materials are presented. |
