Amorphous alloys structurally deviate from crystalline materials in that they possess unique short-range ordered and long-range disordered atomic arrangement. They are important catalytic materials due to their unique chemical and structural properties including broadly adjustable composition, structural homogeneity, and high concentration of coordinatively unsaturated sites. As chemically reduced metal-metalloid amorphous alloys exhibit excellent catalytic performance in applications such as efficient chemical production, energy conversion, and environmental remediation, there is an intense surge in interest in using them as catalytic materials. This critical review summarizes the progress in the study of the metal-metalloid amorphous alloy catalysts, mainly in recent decades, with special focus on their synthetic strategies and catalytic applications in petrochemical, fine chemical, energy, and environmental relevant reactions. The review is intended to be a valuable resource to researchers interested in these exciting catalytic materials. We concluded the review with some perspectives on the challenges and opportunities about the future developments of metal-metalloid amorphous alloy catalysts.

“…It is also not clear if the two metals form alloys, if surface segregation of one element occurs, or if the two elements are randomly distributed on the surface of the catalyst. Nanoalloy catalysts [9][10][11][12][13][14] have attracted a great deal of attention due to their excellent activity and selectivity in many hydrogenation reactions [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Generally speaking, nanoalloys can be prepared by a rapid quenching technique [23] or by co-sputtering method.…”

“…Ultrafine amorphous alloy particles (UAAP) constitute an overlapping area of amorphous alloys and nanophase materials and hence attract a great deal of attention due to their interesting intrinsic properties, e.g., short-range order, long-range disorder and high dispersion, as well as their potential applications in powder metallurgy, magnetic materials, catalysts and ferrofluids, higher activity, better selectivity and stronger poison resistance in many hydrogenation reactions. 412 Ultrafine amorphous alloy particles have properties that are of interest in catalysis including: (i) the presence of a large number of surface coordinatively unsaturated sites, (ii) the lack of crystal defects, and (iii) the isotropic, single phase nature of the materials. Examples of UAAP include M-B (where M ¼ Fe, Co or Ni), Ni-P, Co-P, Fe-P-B (where M ¼ Cr, Co or Ni), Ni-P-B, Fe-Co-B, Fe-Ni-B, Ni-Co-B as well as ultrafine crystalline particles of Co, Co 2 B or Co(BO 2 ) 2 , and Fe, Fe 2 B, Mg, Al, Ni, Pd and Cu.…”
