As a result of the advances in catalyst discovery for aqueous ethylene polymerization, silica-polyethylene nancomposites have been prepared with structures that vary with changing catalyst structure and silica composition." It is likely that many more advances in the area of high-tech composites with potential biological and nanotechnology applications will be made in the next few years through aqueous polymerization processes. In addition to free radical polymerizations and catalytic polymerizations, it should be noted that oxidative polymerizations can also be performed in aqueous media to yield conducting polymers. Recently, this has been used to prepare polypyrrole-coated latex particles that are expected to be interesting synthetic mimics for micrometeorites. 

These results can be easily rationalized if ethane hydrogenolysis requires an ensemble of multiple Ni surface atoms to form an active site. The concentration of active ensembles will decline sharply with composition as the active Ni atoms are diluted with inactive Cu atoms in the surface.. Additional information on how bimetallic catalysts affect chemical reactions can be found in the excellent monograph by Sinfelt (J. H.
