Catalysis involves just about every field of scientific study. This means that a multidisciplinary approach is needed in catalytic studies. Catalysis involves breaking and forming new bonds and this requires an under standing of either adsorption by bonding to an extended structures or bonding in a coordination sphere. Any understanding of catalytic action must necessarily involve an understanding of this bonding. Even 200 years ago scientists were aware that a properly treated mate rial, such as charcoal, could adsorb an enormous quantity of gas. In 1812, de Sassasure (English translation, Annal Philosphy, 6, 241 (1815» pro posed that the ability ... Read more

Reviews for Theoretical Aspects of Heterogeneous Catalysis
This is a useful, well written nicely produced book that covers literature published up to two or three years ago. Unfortunately it does not have a good index, but it does much to bridge theoretical developments and the more practical aspects of catalysis. Most practising catalytic scientists will find more than ... Read more
