The development of a commercially successful process for the
catalytic synthesis of ammonia was a scientific as well as a
technical triumph. Its implications were con siderable. It
demonstrated the power of a combination of innovative technology
and engineering together with basic chemical science, and it
introduced ideas and techniques into catalytic science and process
engineering which are still with us today. In a real sense, this
process changed the face of industrial chemistry and process
technology. Of course, the key step in the direct synthesis of
ammonia was the development of an efficient catalyst, and the
historical account given by Dr. S. A. Topham in the first chapter
of this volume shows how this was success fully accomplished, and
how this was combined with the successful solution of other
daunting technical problems to make the overall process possible.
The microstructure of a catalyst is an important feature which
determines its behaviour, and the electron microscope is one of the
most important instrumental methods by means of which structural
and microstruc tural information can be obtained. Nevertheless, the
elec tron-optical processes of image formation are complex, but
need to be properly understood if image interpreta tion is to be
done reliably. In the second chapter of this volume, Dr. J. V.
Sanders addresses the entire field of the application of electron
microscopic methods to the examination of catalysts."
