oxygen defects act as active centres
In
the chemical industry, heterogeneous catalysis is vital for the
manufacture of basic or fine chemicals, in catalytic converters of
exhaust gas and for the chemical storage of solar energy. A new infrared
spectroscopy method can study processes at surfaces of oxides used as
catalysts.In the chemical industry, heterogeneous catalysis is vital for the manufacture of basic or fine chemicals, in catalytic converters of exhaust gas and for the chemical storage of solar energy. Scientists from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and Ruhr-Universität Bochum (RUB) in Germany have developed a new infrared spectroscopy method in order to study processes at surfaces of oxides used as catalysts; their results have been published in Angewandte Chemie (doi: 10.1002/ange.201200585).
