A timely review of the current state as well as future trends in high–throughput experimentation and combinatorial chemistry in catalysis and materials science.
Following a brief historical overview, this ready reference introduces important definitions and explains the different stages in high–throughput experimentation along with their practical applications. The design and model phase in high–throughput experimentation are then described, covering data evaluation and visualization, software solutions, workflow development, analytics, and kinetics. The following chapters focus on heterogeneous and homogeneous catalyzed reactions, including an overview of high–throughput screening approaches for the development of advanced materials. A final chapter deals with the impact of high–throughput experimentation on industrial R&D, providing an outlook summarizing the value of combinatorial and high–throughput approaches in academic research. Each chapter highlights didactic aspects and concepts rather than technical details and concludes with a short CV and interview with the corresponding author on the most important developments.
Written by leading experts from academia and industry, this is a valuable source of information not only for professionals and engineers in the chemical, petrochemical, and pharmaceutical industry but also for researchers in catalysis and materials science interested in accelerating their research.
