Zeolites and Catalysis Microporous, aluminosilicate minerals with regularly structured pores offer access to a wide range of applications in both academia and industry. This indispensable two-volume handbook covery everything on the hot research field of zeolites. With information spread over two volumes: Volume 1 deals with the synthesis, modification, characterization and application of catalytic active zeolites, while Volume 2 focuses on such reaction types as cracking, hydrocracking, isomerization, reforming and other industrially important topics. Edited by a highly experienced and internationally renowned team with chapters written by the ?Who?s Who? of zeolite research, this set is valuable to catalytic, solid state, physical, and industrial chemists, chemical engineers, surface chemists and materials scientists

Einfach alles über Zeolithe und Katalyse erfahren Sie aus diesen beiden topaktuellen Bänden. Der erste Teil konzentriert sich auf Synthese, Modifikation, Charakterisierung und Anwendung katalytisch aktiver Zeolithe; im Mittelpunkt des zweitens Teils stehen Reaktionstypen wie Cracken, Hydrocracken, Isomerisierungen und katalytische Reformierung.Die Beiträge stammen von erfahrenen, international bekannten und fachlich führenden Spezialisten der Zeolithforschung.
