CHEM 710/7100-01 - Catalysis
Semester: Fall 2025
Professor: M. Schlaf
|
Discipline: Inorganic
|
Campus: Guelph
Catalysis is the most important technique in the chemical industry – almost all basic chemicals ranging from fuels (gasoline, kerosene, Diesel), lubricants and waxes, fertilizers, to all polymers (PE, PP, PETE, PPTE, PBTE, Nylon™, Lycra™, EPDM, poly-butadiene rubber, etc., etc.), to detergents, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals are produced using one or several metal-catalyzed processes. An at least basic knowledge and understanding of hetero- and homogeneously catalyzed reactions ...
CHEM 712/7120 - X-Ray Crystallography
Semester: Fall 2025
Professor: D. Soldatov
|
Discipline: Inorganic
|
Campus: Guelph
Introduction into chemical crystallography and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The course provides basic theoretical background for understanding crystal structures and other XRD data reported in the literature and databases. The course also covers theoretical and practical aspects of the XRD analysis, including interaction of X-rays with matter, theoretical description of diffraction, experimental methods, instrumentation, preparation of samples, and the usage of ...
