Quantum effects can become significant [with] nanometer scales. Additionally, physical (mechanical, electrical, optical, etc.) properties change versus macroscopic systems. One example is the increase in surface area to volume ratio altering mechanical, thermal, and catalytic properties of materials.
Also found a concise quote repeating what I say about Zeolite:
Nanostructured materials with small particle size, such as zeolites and asbestos are used as catalysts in a wide range of critical industrial chemical reactions.
