2013 Annual Meeting

October 28 - November 2, 2012

Microporous and mesoporous materials have been extensively used in heterogeneous catalysis. The session provides expert perspectives and covers new developments in the synthesis of zeolite catalysts, mesoporous metal and metal oxide catalysts with tuned porous structures, active sites and morphologies. The talks will highlight key underlying issues for development of porous materials for heterogeneous catalysis: (1) new synthesis approaches for microporous and mesoporous catalysts; (2) development of single-site heterogeneous catalysts; (3) hierarchical porous catalysts and nanosized porous catalysts; (4) multifunctional porous catalysts.
