Dynamic Nanocatalysis (DN) is dedicated to advancing frontier research in catalytic science with a focus on dynamic behaviors and structural evolution. It covers interdisciplinary fields including materials science, chemical engineering, energy, and environment, aiming to establish a high-level academic exchange platform. DN is published quarterly online by Scilight Press.
The specific scope includes:
- Dynamic Catalytic Mechanisms: Encompassing structural reconstruction of catalysts under reaction conditions and dynamic evolution of active sites (e.g., single-atom migration, cluster dissociation/reassembly, etc.).
- In-situ Characterization Techniques: Such as in-situ electron microscopy, synchrotron radiation, and ultrafast spectroscopy, which are applied to the analysis of dynamic catalytic processes.
- Theoretical and Computational Simulations: Integrating approaches like machine learning and synthetic biology to predict dynamic catalytic behaviors and construct structure-performance correlation models.
- Intelligent Responsive Materials: Design of photo/thermal/magnetically responsive nanocatalysts, self-healing catalytic materials, and biomimetic catalytic systems.
- Interdisciplinary Applications:
※ Energy Field: Dynamic catalytic water splitting for hydrogen production, catalysis for metal-air batteries, catalytic conversion of organic molecules, etc.;
※ Environmental Applications: Real-time catalytic degradation of pollutants, recyclable catalytic membranes, environment-responsive nanocatalytic purification, etc.
