Heterogeneous catalysis—in which catalysts and reactants are of different phases, e.g., solid and gas—is important to many ...

A cheap, earth-abundant metal is proving it can do work long reserved for far more expensive catalysts, and the implications ...

The development of catalysts has long depended on the trial-and-error methods which are time-consuming and often yield inconsistent data. To improve the precision and ...

Industrial processes often release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere, posing significant risks to human ...

Researchers at Koç University have developed a light-driven method to produce porous semiconducting polymers under ambient conditions without the need for metal catalysts. The study, led by Prof. Dr.

Sometimes conformity is a good thing. Particularly when it comes to stereochemistry. While stereocenters arise in mirror-image enantiomer pairs when left to their own devices, the enantiomers can have ...

With the goal of achieving a carbon-neutral society and eliminating greenhouse gas emissions by 2050, efforts are accelerating to utilize hydrogen as a key energy source. To achieve this goal, the ...

In their quest for more-efficient catalysts and better battery components, scientists are exploring a new category of materials known as high-entropy oxides. These oxides, made from five or more ...

A chemical reaction can convert two polluting greenhouse gases into valuable building blocks for cleaner fuels and feedstocks, but the high temperature required for the reaction also deactivates the ...

Researchers used sonicated carbon nanotubes to enable a reaction pathway that can pinpoint specific contaminants and break them down to help save our water. (Nanowerk News) Water is one of the most ...
