Nanocatalysts are tiny particles that speed up chemical reactions. This thesis investigates the impact of morphology on nanocatalysts, specifically how it affects their activity and stability to produce green hydrogen and hydrogen peroxide. The unique nanostructures can expose active sites, increase surface area, and enhance mass transfer and electron transport to improve catalytic performance, thereby, reducing energy consumption and cost.
