E-grāmata: Electron Microscopy in Heterogeneous Catalysis

"This book deals with in situ dynamic observation and analysis of heterogeneous catalysis using environmental cells (EC) in transmission (TEM) and scanning electron microscopes (SEM). In general, it is based on outstanding and unique works carried out by the authors themselves over the past three decades, who pioneered this key enabling area of materials science. It provides comprehensive and yet compact introductions to heterogeneous catalysis and electron microscopy and diffraction, followed by detailed descriptions of electron microscopy studies of oxide catalysis, zeolites, molecular sieves, supported small metal particles, and environmental catalysis. For those who are carrying out in situ dynamic studies of catalysis using EC in TEM and/or SEM, this book gives a state-of-the-art review of this field. More importantly, this book encourages those catalysis students and electron microscopists who are planning to perform in situ dynamic studies of catalysis." -Professor Hiroyasu Saka, Nagoya University, Japan

"P.L. Gai and E.D. Boyes have produced an authoritative text [ that is] indispensable if this is your subject." -P. Hawkes, Ultramicroscopy 101 (2004): 73-103
