This open access book presents a thorough look at tortuosity and microstructure effects in
porous materials. The book delivers a comprehensive review of the subject, summarizing all …

The structure and function of solid catalysts are inseparably linked at length scales from nm
to cm and beyond. Hard X‐ray tomography offers unique potential for spatially‐resolved …

A combination of X-ray ptychography and X-ray fluorescence tomography (XRF) has been
used to study the fragmentation behavior of an individual Ziegler–Natta catalyst particle,∼ …

The successful synthesis of hierarchically structured titanium silicalite‐1 (TS‐1) with large
intracrystalline macropores by steam‐assisted crystallisation of mesoporous silica particles …

The synthesis of hierarchically porous materials usually requires complex experimental
procedures, often based around extensive trial and error approaches. One common …

There is considerable motivation in the catalysis community and chemical industry to
envision a future where rational catalyst design and targeted chemical process optimization …

CO2 methanation is often performed on Ni/Al2O3 catalysts, which can suffer from mass
transport limitations and, therefore, decreased efficiency. Here we show the application of a …

Ziegler-type catalysts are the grand old workhorse of the polyolefin industry, yet their
hierarchically complex nature complicates polymerization activity–catalyst structure …

Three-way catalyst material was deposited inside the pores of a ceramic particulate filter and
the pore geometry as well as the distribution of the catalyst in the pores was determined by X …

Pore network is regarded as one of the most important aspects of FCC (Fluid Catalytic
Cracking) catalysts for delivering reactants to active sites and transporting out products, and …
