Organometallics & Sustainable Catalysis (Ekambaram Balaraman)
At the present scenario, the chemical industry is a key constituent of the Indian economy, accounting for about 1.38% of the nation’s GDP. Catalytic processes are preliminarily involved in the synthesis of 80% of all industrially produced chemicals. In view of this, design and development of innovative new catalytic systems has clear, direct and long-term… Continue reading Organometallics & Sustainable Catalysis (Ekambaram Balaraman)
