🔬 Nanocatalyst Bed Kinetics (2D)

Interactive 2D top-down simulation of nanoparticle-catalyzed reaction kinetics — tune reactant count, nanoparticle site density, surface-area factor and catalytic turnover and watch Michaelis-Menten-style binding play out.

This 2D companion drops the 3D nanoparticle-bed view into a flat top-down arena, keeping the exact same binding kinetics: reactant molecules diffuse until they land within range of a free nanoparticle site, bind with a probability set by the surface-area factor, then convert to product after a delay set by the catalytic turnover rate. The live rate readout follows the same Michaelis-Menten-style curve as the 3D original — more sites and higher affinity push the reaction toward its saturation limit faster.

⚙ Under the hood

Reactant molecules bounce inside a 2D arena, bind to free nanoparticle sites within range, and convert to product after a delay — the same rate law as the 3D original, viewed from above.
