The effects of confinement on the surfaces of aggregates in 100-1000 size range
is an emerging field in condensed matter physics and chemistry. Much of the
research focuses on how the surfaces of aggregates change when they encounter a
confining surface such as a pore in a catalyst. The field is new and could have
important implications for the design of rational processes. This volume
collects work from a range of scientists who are studying the same general kinds
of molecular behavior and seeks to draw connections between different
approaches.
