The Brønsted acidity of proton-exchanged zeolites has historically led to the most impactful
applications of these materials in heterogeneous catalysis, mainly in the fields of …

Syngas chemistry has been under study since Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) was
invented in the 1920s. Despite the successful applications of FTS as the core technology of …

This review addresses the most relevant aspects of vibrational spectroscopies (IR, Raman
and INS) applied to zeolites and zeotype materials. Surface Brønsted and Lewis acidity and …

This study presents a detailed methodology, which combines high-precision
thermogravimetry and FTIR spectroscopy, aiming to establish the most accurate and reliable …

Abstract Syngas conversion by Fischer–Tropsch synthesis (FTS) is characterized by a wide
distribution of hydrocarbon products ranging from one to a few carbon atoms. Reported here …

Surface hydroxyl groups are active centers in many catalytic reactions and can play an
important role during catalyst preparation. In this chapter, the application of infrared …

The species obtained from adsorption of ammonia over zeolite H-ZSM-5 and H-mordenite
were characterized by temperature-programmed desorption (NH3-TPD) and infrared …

The ability of molecular sieves to control the access and egress of certain reactants and
products and to preferentially contain certain transition states while excluding others based …

Methanol carbonylation is currently used to produce acetic acid with Rh and Ir
organometallic complexes and iodide cocatalysts.[1–3] Zeolites [4–9] and Keggin …

The acid-catalyzed formation of carbon− carbon bonds from C1 precursors via CO insertion
into chemisorbed methyl groups occurs selectively within eight-membered ring (8-MR) …
