Nanoscale Materials as Catalysts I

Monday, November 9, 2009: 12:30 PM
Lincoln C (Gaylord Opryland Hotel)

Description:
While the nanoscale is not foreign to heterogeneous catalysis, new developments in nanotechnology promise to create a new generation of catalysts with precise control of structures and desired functionalities. Papers are solicited to showcase such developments.
