Essential reference for researchers and experts in industry
highlighting the rapidly growing field of hydroxyapatite-based
catalysts and their application in various chemical processes.
Hydroxyapatite (Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2) is the main mineral component of
human and animal bones. It is largely applied in the field of
biomaterials due to its biocompatibility. Recently,
hydroxyapatite-based materials have especially gained a lot of
attention by researchers in catalysis, as they are versatile and
have shown precious properties of a good catalyst and catalyst
support such as excellent ion-exchange capacity, high porosity,
very low water solubility, controlled basicity/acidity, and good
thermal stability at high temperatures. Design and Applications of
Hydroxyapatite-Based Catalysts gives a detailed overview of the
synthesis, characterization, and use of hydroxyapatite-based
materials in catalysis. It covers synthetic hydroxyapatites (from
pure chemicals or waste), natural apatites and materials from
eggshells and animal bones. The application of hydroxyapatite-based
catalysts in selective oxidation, deoxygenation, selective
hydrogenation, dehydrogenation reactions, organic synthesis, as
well as reforming processes and production of energy carriers is
reviewed. Moreover, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis using
hydroxyapatite-based materials are discussed. Kinetic and mechanism
studies of various chemical pro-cesses over hydroxyapatite-based
catalysts are also presented. This is the first book solely
dedicated to hydroxyapatite-based materials and their use in
catalysis. Covers synthesis and characterization, surface and
structure studies, kinetic and mechanism aspects, and various
applications in heterogeneous catalysis, electrocatalysis, and
photocatalysis. Aimed at further stimulating research in the field
Design and Applications of Hydroxyapatite-Based Catalysts is an
indispensable source-of-information for researchers in academia and
industry working in catalysis.
