Transition metals have long been used as catalysts to activate small molecules and turn them into valuable products. However, as these metals can be expensive and less abundant, scientists are ...

Recent research has demonstrated that a rhodium (Rh) cluster of an optimal, intermediate size—neither too small nor too large ...

Two-dimensional topological materials are widely studied because they can be efficient and cost-effective catalysts. Their ...

Plastic is everywhere. From water bottles and food containers to household items and packaging, modern life depends heavily ...

Scientists are finding new ways to replace expensive, scarce platinum catalysts with something far more abundant: tungsten ...

Market valued at $27.64B in 2024, projected 3.94% CAGR growth driven by petroleum refining, green chemistry, biocatalysts, ...

Researchers have developed a new catalyst architecture that dramatically reduces the amount of expensive precious metals ...

Researchers from Skoltech have uncovered physical principles governing the remote "tuning" of nanocatalysts, where the ...

Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions or allow them to occur at lower temperatures or pressures. 1 When catalysts are used to control and enhance reactions, the process is called ...

This new cerium-based catalyst interconverts between two oxidation states with distinct chemical properties, enabling two completely different reactions to occur in the same container. Most of the ...

Traditional catalysts often waste material because only surface atoms participate in reactions, while the bulk material goes untouched. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) overcome this inefficiency by ...
