New Materials for Catalytic Applications (eBook)

New Materials for Catalytic Applications proposes the use of both new and existing materials for catalytic applications, such as zeolites, metal oxides, microporous and mesoporous materials, and monocrystals. In addition, metal-oxides are discussed from a new perspective, i.e. nano- and photocatalytic applications. The material presents these concepts with a new focus on strategies in synthesis, synthesis based on a rational design, the correlation between basic properties/potential applications, and new catalytic solutions for acid-base, redox, hydrogenation, photocatalytic reactions, etc. - Presents organometallic concepts for the synthesis of nanocatalysts - Provides a synthesis of new materials following the fluorolytic sol-gel concept - Covers electronic and photocatalytic properties via synthesis of nano-oxide materials - Details the nature of sites in MOFs generating catalytic properties immobilization of triflates in solid matrices for organic reactions

Vasile I. Parvulescu is Founder and director of the Catalysts and Catalytic Processes Research Center in Romania and Professor at Bucharest University, he is an internationally well-known expert in catalysts and catalytic processes, particularly for environmental protection and green chemistry. He was an 'Alexander von Humboldt' fellowship in 1997 and a visiting professor at several educational institutions worldwide. He is a member of the SUNERGY/SUNER-C Board and of several Permanent International Conferences and catalysis associations. He made many plenary and keynote lectures worldwide. He authorises several books, over 400 publications, and various patents.
