Novel catalytic membranes for selective reactions

Topics in Catalysis Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

A survey is given of the potentials of a new kind of catalytic membranes consisting of a catalyst that is immobilised in a dense polymer matrix. When homogeneous, catalytically active complexes are occluded, these membranes constitute a new way of heterogenation. In the case of solid state catalysts, these composite membranes can improve the activity of the catalyst by changing sorption or by allowing experimental set-ups in which solvents become redundant.
