Abstract

Nanostructured materials with their small grain size, large number of grain boundaries and surfaces, together with their strong reactivity with gaseous species, are very interesting materials to study and develop for gas-reactive applications. These applications include: gas-sensors and getters and hydrogen storage. In this chapter, the basic characteristics of nanostructured materials, especially those related to gas reactions will be presented. This will be followed by a review of the research activities on nanostructured materials in gas sensors, getters, and hydrogen storage devices. The chapter will conclude by briefly discussing the challenges and the opportunities associated with this very interesting and promising area of research.
