It is largely applied in the field of biomaterials due to its biocompatibility. Recently, hydroxyapatite-based materials have especially gained a lot of attention by researchers in catalysis, as they are versatile and have shown precious properties of a good catalyst and catalyst support such as excellent ion-exchange capacity, high porosity, very low water solubility, controlled basicity\/acidity, and good thermal stability at high temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDesign and Applications of Hydroxyapatite-Based Catalysts\u003c\/i\u003e gives a detailed overview of the synthesis, characterization, and use of hydroxyapatite-based materials in catalysis. It covers synthetic hydroxyapatites (from pure chemicals or waste), natural apatites and materials from eggshells and animal bones. The application of hydroxyapatite-based catalysts in selective oxidation, deoxygenation, selective hydrogenation, dehydrogenation reactions, organic synthesis, as well as reforming processes and production of energy carriers is reviewed. Moreover, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis using hydroxyapatite-based materials are discussed. Kinetic and mechanism studies of various chemical pro-cesses over hydroxyapatite-based catalysts are also presented.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is the first book solely dedicated to hydroxyapatite-based materials and their use in catalysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers synthesis and characterization, surface and structure studies, kinetic and mechanism aspects, and various applications in heterogeneous catalysis, electrocatalysis, and photocatalysis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eAimed at further stimulating research in the field \u003ci\u003eDesign and Applications of Hydroxyapatite-Based Catalysts\u003c\/i\u003e is an indispensable source-of-information for researchers in academia and industry working in catalysis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":54220695470424,"sku":"9783527348497","price":173.6,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/design-and-applications-of-hydroxyapatite-based-catalysts","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
