Faraday Discussion 152: Gold has now been published online.
Take a look at this exciting volume which covers the following themes:
- Gold catalysis at the gas solid interface
- Gold catalysis and materials science
- Theoretical insights on gold catalysis
- Gold catalysis and enhanced selectivity
In the volume you can find all the papers and exciting discussion from the conference held in Cardiff, UK, in July. These are just some of the highlights:
