TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - INORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Components: The ceramic, metal or cermet comprising the catalyst is copper oxide, manganese oxide, cerium oxide, cerium(V) oxide, silicon dioxide, nickel oxide, nickel(III) oxide, lanthanum strontium, chromium, manganese, copper, yttrium, zirconium, yttrium stabilized zirconia, calcium-stabilized zirconia, cobalt, titanium, vanadium, zinc and/or molybdenum, and has a size of 1.5-500 nm. The additional ceramics are different than the ceramic-comprising catalyst.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - ORGANIC CHEMISTRY - Preferred Process: The process further comprises: contacting the emulsion in the reactor with a stabilizer including an acid compound of formula (H2C=C(R1)=C(=O)-O-(R2-C(=O)-)n-R3-C(=O)-OH) (I); and sintering the resin catalyst by heating at 400-1600 degrees C to obtain catalyst particles having a volume average diameter of 4-8 mu m, a surface area of 1-1000 m2/g and a mean pore size diameter of 0.1-10 nm. The process comprises adding a ceramic comprising catalyst in the step (a) and adding additional ceramic in the step (c).R1 = H or CH3;R2, R3 = 1-12C alkyl or phenyl; andn = 0-20.Preferred Components: The stabilizer includes beta -carboxyethyl acrylate, poly(2-carboxyethyl)acrylate and/or 2-carboxyethyl methacrylate.    TECHNOLOGY FOCUS - POLYMERS - Preferred Components: The latex resin is styrenes, (meth)acrylates, butadienes, isoprenes, (meth)acrylic acids, acrylonitriles and/or polyesters, and the resin is present in an amount of 50-99 wt.% of the resin catalyst. The resin catalyst comprises particles having a size of 3-10 microns, a mean pore size diameter of 0.1-100 nm and a surface area of 1-1000 m2/g. EXAMPLE - Deionized water (736 g) and 47% aqueous Dowfax 2A1 (RTM: Alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonate) (1.1 g) were added into a jacketed stainless steel reactor (2 l). The materials were deaerated for 30 minutes and then further worked up to give a resin catalyst. A monomer mixture of styrene, n-butyl acrylate, beta -carboxy ethyl acrylate and 1-dodecane thiol was agitated with an aqueous solution of Dowfax 2A1 (RTM: Alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonate) and deionized water at 300 revolutions per minute at 20-25 degrees C to obtain a monomer emulsion, where the primary particle size was 100-300 nm. A nano sized catalyst ceramic (having primary particle size of 1-100 nm) was used as the seed for the styrene butyl acrylate emulsion. The seed ceramic was added to a separate reactor, optionally in a surfactant, where the seed can be cerium oxide, copper oxide, nickel oxide, copper manganese or other ceramic material, or a mixture of ceramic materials. After introduction of the seed, the above emulsion was added into the reactor and stirred for about 8 minutes at 75 degrees C. An optional spacer polymer such as a low-cost wax (immiscible in styrene) was added to the emulsion to ensure porosity of the final product. Polyaluminum chloride was added to the emulsion to initiate the aggregation process. The temperature was adjusted to achieve a target size. Another emulsion was added to create a core/shell structure of active catalysts. Many layers of different catalysts were built to form multifunctional particles. When the target size was achieved, the pH of the emulsion was adjusted to stop further aggregation. An aluminum chelating agent (such as sodium-EDTA) was added to remove aluminum. The pH was adjusted and monitored to achieve particles of targeted shape under increased heating. The emulsion was further worked up to give resin catalyst, which was then sintered to obtain dry powder containing the catalyst.
