Using new instrumentation and experimental techniques that allow
scientists to observe chemical reactions and molecular properties
at the nanoscale, the authors of Surface and Nanomolecular
Catalysis reveal new insights into the surface chemistry of
catalysts and the reaction mechanisms that actually occur at a
molecular level during catalysis. While each chapter contains the
necessary background and explanations to stand alone, the diverse
collection of chapters shows how developments from various fields
each contributed to our current understanding of nanomolecular
catalysis as a whole. The book describes how the size and shape of
materials at the nanoscale can change their chemical and physical
properties and promote more efficient reactions with fewer
by-products. First it highlights the preparation, characterization,
and applications of heterogeneous and supported metal catalysts.
Then it covers the engineering of catalytic processes, structure
and reaction control, and texturological properties of catalytic
systems. The authors explain how surface science can elucidate
reaction mechanisms and discuss the growing role of high-throughput
experimentation and combinatorial approaches in catalysis. From
fundamental concepts to future directions, Surface and
Nanomolecular Catalysis offers a well-rounded compilation of
noteworthy developments which will continue to expand and transform
our understanding of catalysis, particularly in the context of
clean energy and environmental applications such as fuel cells.
