This award supports cooperative research in heterogeneous catalysis to be conducted by Prof. Eduardo E. Wolf of the University of Notre Dame and Mr. Paulo Araya of the Chemical Engineering Department of the University of Chile. The work will be mainly experimental studies using infrared techniques developed at Notre Dame to verify theoretical work now in progress. Heterogeneous catalysts are used to accelerate chemical reactions. Studying these reactions can be crucially important to the petroleum and chemical industries. Infrared spectroscopy has shown that the catalysts' microstructure is important in determining the dynamic response of the catalyst to changes in operating conditions. The theoretical models of catalytic surfaces have been developed by Mr. Araya at Notre Dame in collaboration with Prof. Wolf. Now the experimental work to verify them will be carried out by extending Mr. Araya's stay. This work will be part of his Ph.D. thesis at the University of Chile and will form the basis of beginning a research group in this area in Chile which will develop and continue the collaboration between the two countries. In this way this support will help fulfill the goals of the Science in Developing Countries program.

该奖项支持Notre Dame的Eduardo E. Wolf教授和智利大学化学工程系的Paulo Araya先生进行的异质催化研究。 这项工作将主要是使用在巴黎圣母院开发的红外技术来验证现在正在进行的理论工作的实验研究。 异质催化剂用于加速化学反应。 研究这些反应对于石油和化学工业至关重要。 红外光谱表明，催化剂的微结构对于确定催化剂对工作条件变化的动态响应很重要。 催化表面的理论模型是由巴黎圣母院（Notre Dame）先生与沃尔夫（Wolf）合作开发的。 现在，将通过延长Araya先生的住宿来验证它们的实验工作。 这项工作将成为他博士学位的一部分。智利大学的论文将构成在智利该领域成立研究小组的基础，该研究小组将在两国之间发展并继续合作。 这样，这种支持将有助于实现发展中国家计划的科学目标。
