1 PhD Fellowship on Combining molecular modelling and experimental kinetics to unravel the role of Boron in Belgium | Ghent University

Aim: Boron has been found to dramatically enhance the stability of Ni and Co catalysts. However, the exact role and location of the boron promotor remains unknown. The aim of this project is to gain an in depth understanding of the role of boron, and to extent its applicability.
