About this document

Cluster Size Effects on Catalytic Kinetics by Bouzid Mohamed is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses how the size of metal nanoparticles can impact catalytic kinetics and selectivity. Smaller nanoparticles have a higher fraction of surface atoms, which typically leads to higher activity. However, turnover frequency can depend on nanoparticle size in more complex ways. Selectivity in some reactions also varies with size, such as selectivity toward intermediate or final products. The document proposes kinetic equations to quantitatively describe how nanoparticle size can influence rea
