The collection contains articles on modern problems of heterogeneous catalysis and solid-state chemistry. It discusses the naturecatalytic action of the main classes of catalysts: metals, semiconductors, insulators. The application of modern physicochemical methods of research (chromatography, EPR, isotopes, etc.) is considered. ), to the study of the mechanism and kinetics of catalytic reactions, theoretical and practical aspects of reactions in solids. The collection is designed for a wide range of chemists and physicists dealing with the problems of kinetics, catalysis and topochemistry - for teachers, graduate students and university students specializing in these areas.
