Synopsis

Looking at the structure, properties and synthesis of nanocarbons as catalysts, this is the first book to provide a comprehensive view of the subject.

About this title

From the Back Cover

There is great interest in using nanostructured carbon materials in catalysis, either as supports for immobilizing active species or as metal-free catalysts due to their unique structural, thermal, chemical, electronic and mechanical properties, and tailorable surface chemistry.
Nanostructured Carbon Materials for Catalysis looks at the structure and properties of different doped and undoped nanocarbons including graphene; fullerenes; nanodiamonds; carbon nanotubes and nanofibers; their synthesis and modification to produce catalysts. Special attention is paid to adsorption, as it impacts the application of these materials in various industrially relevant catalytic reactions discussed herein, in addition to photocatalysis and electrocatalysis.
Written by leading experts in the area, this is the first book to provide a comprehensive view of the subject for the catalysis community.
