Download or read book Key Structural Factors of Group 5 Metal Oxide Clusters for Base Catalytic Application written by Shun Hayashi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-08 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides detailed information on the base catalysis of group 5 (Nb, Ta) metal oxide clusters by elucidating how the structural factors such as constituent metals, counter cations, and local structures of base sites affect their catalysis. Uniquely, it reveals the effects of key structural factors at the molecular level by combining experimental and theoretical approaches. The findings presented here provide rational design principles for base catalysis and will foster the development of promising catalysts for solving current and future energy and environmental problems.
