-
to encourage and promote the use of standard conventions
and terminology in the field of physical chemistry and in particular
in the fields of colloid and surface chemistry and catalysis,
-
to provide recommendations for experimental procedures
in the fields of colloid and surface chemistry and catalysis,
and
-
to stimulate the use of colloid and surface chemistry
including catalysis in more applied fields of science, such as,
for instance, environmental chemistry.
These objectives are achieved through recommendation reports, technical
reports and workshops on new topics related to Colloids, Surfaces and
Catalysis. The different tasks can be grouped under the headings:
Standardized Nomenclature and Methods,
Advanced Materials,
Environmental Protection.
Projects of the Nomenclature and Methods group often also belong to
the category of Advanced Materials. The intention of projects on Environmental
Protection is to provide an interaction platform where chemists in colloid
and surface chemistry and catalysis can meet specialists in the field
of environmental protection and sustainable development.
Commission I.6 has two sub-committees:
Subcommittee on Advanced Materials: Colloid, Surface
and Catalytic Aspects
Prof. R. A. Schoonheydt,
Chairman
Subcommittee on Environmental Protection: Colloid, Surface
and Catalytic Aspects
Prof. L. K. Koopal,
Chairman
The Commission welcomes comments and suggestions about
its work. In particular in relation to the current
and preliminary projects. Suggestions
that certain areas within the mandate of the Commission are in need
of recommendations, or nomenclature, help us to direct our work.
