报告摘要:

In the past century, research on various catalytic systems have been carried out using various kinds of catalysts such as metals, metal oxides, metal sulfides, chalcogenides, zeolites, porous materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), as well as organic polymers. However, to achieve much higher efficiency and highly selective catalytic systems, innovative breakthroughs are still strongly desired.

In this remote lectures (Part 1 and Part 2), I would like to introduce the great achievements of prominent scientists in the catalyst and catalysis fields so that we can learn a lot from their valuable works and words. In the first part of my lectures, I will present a short history of the development in catalytic science and technology including the works of Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry whose work is related to catalysis. Especially, I want to introduce a couple of masterpieces on the NH₃ synthesis from H₂ and N₂ (Part 1) and the automobile three-way catalysts (Part 2). These are special and very instructive researches to understand catalysis from its fundamentals to its present industrial applications.

Fig. 1. Elucidation how to dissociate a strong N-N triple bond of N₂ to form N-atoms on Fe catalysts and the role of promoter of K (or K₂O).  Nobel Prize in Chemistry; Prof. Fritz Haber in 1918, Prof. Carl Bosch in 1931, and Prof. Dr. Gerhard Ertl in 2007.

I would like to introduce the words of great scientists including the late Dr. Toyosaburo Taniguchi who was the president of Toyoboseki Co., now called Toyobo (Part 2). He became the representative of Japanese textile manufacturers and the chief negotiator during the trade conflicts between the US and Japan in the 1950’s and 60’s. And, finally, I want to encourage young scientists and students to have a big dream and many international good friends for their future success.
