Abstract

The development of varied methodologies for the synthesis of MNPs (metal nanoparticles) has gained tremendous boast because of the unique properties of the nanoparticles as compared to their bulk counterparts. The quantization of electronic effects results in special optical and magnetic properties. Moreover, a high surface-tovolume ratio promotes exceptional mechanical, thermal, and catalytic properties. Therefore, the synthesis and stabilization of metal nanoparticles are of paramount importance. Herein, we have highlighted the synthesis, stabilization, and applications of transition metallic nanoparticles like Pd, Ag, Au, Pt, Cu, and Co, using different methods, which include the sol-gel method, chemical reduction method, green method (natural resources), and colloidal injection method. Furthermore, we have elaborately discussed the different types of stabilizers used to stabilize the metallic nanoparticle. Moreover, the role of stabilizers and the effect on the size of nanoparticles have also been discussed.
