Band-Gap Energy as a Descriptor of Catalytic Activity for Propene Oxidation over Mixed Metal Oxide Catalysts
TL;DR: Both the utility of the band-gap energy as a descriptor for catalytic activity and the role of orbital overlap in determining the band gap are likely to be general features in mixed metal oxide oxidation catalysts, enabling the rational design of catalysts with greater activity for oxidation reactions.
