High Throughput Screening in Chemical Catalysis: Technologies, Strategies and Applications

This is the first book to cover all of the important aspects of this rapidly developing field. The editors from Symyx Technologies Inc, have assembled a group of distinguished authors who contributed up-to-date results and status in their application of high-throughput methodologies. Each chapter is devoted to a major topic including: high-throughput micro-reactor and synthesis equipment technologies, analytical approaches, experimental design and testing strategies, and fully integrated workflows for materials discovery. Examples in chemical catalysis with an emphasis on heterogeneous catalysis, olefin polymerization using homogeneous catalysts, and electrocatalysis for fuel cells are presented.
