Catalysis oN Advanced Materials

20 Apr 2013

The Sociedad Mexicana de Materiales  (SMM) and the Materials Research Society (MRS) invite you to participate and submit your Abstracts BEFORE APRIL 26thto Symposium 6a held during the XXII International Materials Research Congress (IMRC):

Catalysis oN Advanced Materials

Website: http://www.mrs-mexico.org.mx/imrc2013/symposium.php?id_simp=00021

 

Objective: To highlight recent results in the field of Catalysis; to promote exchange of ideas and stimulate recent developments on new catalytic materials, with emphasis on knowledge exchange and practical experiences from academic and industrial viewpoints.

Main Focus: This Symposium is aimed to gather experimentalists and theoreticians interested to discuss latest research results on catalytic materials with specific focus on molecular catalysis, catalysts, molecular engineering for catalyst design and synthesis, nanoscale control for catalysts preparation and applications.

Symposium topics to be addressed include (but are not limited to):

  • Electronic structure of catalytic materials
  • Controlled synthesis of transition metal carbides and sulfides
  • Advanced characterization techniques
  • Atomistic quantum computational modeling
  • Thermodynamic effects and catalytic properties
  • Hydrogen prodution and selective hydrogenation
  • Fischer-Tropsch process
  • Biomass conversion
  • Hydroporocessing
  • Photocatalysis

Invited speakers (confirmed):
