This paper reviews the advances in the chemical synthesis and application of metal-metalloid amorphous alloy nanoparticles consisting of transition metal(M)and metalloid elements(B,P).After a brief introduction on the history of amorphous alloy catalysts,the paper focuses on the properties and characterization of amorphous alloy catalysts,and recent developments in the solution-phase synthesis of amorphous alloy nanoparticles.This paper further outlines the applica-tions of amorphous alloys,with special emphasis on the problems and strategies for the application of amorphous alloy nanoparticles in catalytic reactions.
