Abstract
Changes in thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of catalytic processes under mechanochemical activation of catalysts (mechanochemical catalysis) are considered. It is shown that the activity of catalysts should increase under the mechanochemical activation, while selectivity can vary depending on the relations between the changes in the target reaction and side processes. The considered phenomena are formulated as a new research area which is at the very beginning of its development.
