Metal nanoparticles supported on high surface area oxide materials form the active component of many industrial heterogeneous catalysts. This chapter examines how the structural, electronic and catalytic properties of metal nanoparticles differ from those exhibited by bulk metals. In addition, the influence of the oxide support on the activity and/or selectivity of a catalytic reaction is discussed.
