715 Fundamentals of Supported Catalysis II: Oxygenate Reactions


Description:
This session seeks contributions on understanding the fundamentals of reactivity of supported heterogeneous catalysts based on kinetic, spectroscopic and theoretical studies. Contributions can potentially include kinetic and mechanistic studies of supported metal or bulk oxide structures as well as organic-inorganic catalyst systems.
