- The transition to green and sustainable catalysts necessitates efficient and safe preparation techniques using abundant and renewable resources. Many metal nanoparticles (NPs) are excellent catalysts but suffer from poor colloidal stability. NP immobilization or fabrication of metal nanostructures on solid supports can avoid issues with NP aggregation and facilitate the reuse of catalysts, but it may result in a decrease in the catalytic performance of the NPs. Here, we show that well-defined colloidal silver, gold, and platinum NPs can be self-assembled in bacterial nanocellulose (BC) membranes, yielding BC-NP nanocomposites that are highly catalytically active using the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) as a model reaction. The large effective surface area of BC enables the assembly of large quantities of NPs, resulting in materials with excellent catalytic performance. To address the mass transport limitations of reactants through the 3D nanofibrillar BC network, the membranes were dissociated using sonication to produce dispersed nanocellulose fibrils. This process dramatically reduced the time required for the adsorption of the NPs from days to minutes. Moreover, the catalytic performance of the nanofibril-supported NPs was drastically improved. A turnover frequency above 21,000 h(-1) was demonstrated, which is more than one order of magnitude higher than that for previously reported soft substrate-supported AuNP-based catalytic materials. The ease of fabrication, abundance, and low environmental footprint of the support material, along with reusability, stability, and unprecedented catalytic performance, make BC-NP nanocomposites a compelling option for green and sustainable catalysis.
