Description

List of Tables

The nanocatalysts market size is expected to reach USD 6.41 billion by 2034, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Nanocatalysts Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report By Material (Metal-Based Nanocatalysts, Metal Oxide Nanocatalysts, Carbon-Based Nanocatalysts, Polymeric Nanocatalysts, Composite Nanocatalysts), By Application, By Region; Market Forecast, 2025-2034" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.

Nanocatalysts are nanoscale materials designed to speed up chemical reactions by providing a large surface area and high reactivity. Nanocatalysts exhibit unique properties such as enhanced catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability compared to bulk catalysts due to their tiny size. These nanomaterials are made from metals, metal oxides, or hybrid structures such as core-shell nanoparticles. The high surface-to-volume ratio of nanocatalysts allows more sites for reactions, improving efficiency while reducing material usage.

Nanocatalysts are widely used in industries such as petroleum refining, pharmaceuticals, and renewable energy. In fuel production, they help in cracking hydrocarbons and reducing emissions. They enable sustainable processes by minimizing waste and energy consumption in green chemistry. In medicine, they are used for targeted drug delivery and as antibacterial agents. Additionally, they help in pollution control by degrading toxic pollutants in the air and water through photocatalytic reactions.
