Catalyst Characterization for Gas Phase Processes

Tools for examining molecular and long-range structures, chemistry and bonding are widely applied to both new and existing molecular sieves, catalysts and adsorbents. Properties of materials, including reactivity, thermochemistry, acidity and diffusion, can also be readily measured. As much work as possible work is done using realistic in situ environments to closely mimic actual process conditions and chemistries. 

A suite of tools is necessary to accelerate catalyst and process development. These tools will be used determine key catalyst functions such as
