Materials for catalysis M1

Thermodynamic and kinetic bases to understand the optimal conditions for catalytic reactions and the requirement of activity and accessibility of catalysts.

Methods for the preparation of porous and dispersed catalysts by nucleation-growth, aggregation, and templating mechanisms.

Correlations between structural properties and activity of heterogeneous catalysts.

Examples of applications of heterogeneous catalysts to processes of refining and industrial chemistry.   

Further on, basic concepts of photocatalysis and electrocatalysis are explored.

Hourly volumes:

CM: 5 p.m .

Tutorial: 8 hours

Getting familiar with catalytic reactions of industrial interest, characterization of the textural and surface properties of catalysts, synthetic aspects of catalysts

Basic knowledge of fundamental concepts in Chemistry, Physics, and Solid State Science (Bachelor's degree program)
