Nanoporous metals have been used to enhance electrocatalysis. The origin of their capability is understood on the basis of enlarged surface area. On the other hand, the nanoconfined space of nanoporous metals can significantly affect the electrochemical efficiency. Moreover, molecular dynamics in nanoconfined spaces is capable of offering much more chances of interaction between a redox molecule and a metal surface. These unique properties come from simply nanoporous structure and suggest new opportunity to innovative electrocatalysts in the future. This review addresses recent advances in the field of nanoporous metals and discusses respective important electrocatalytic applications.
