Important everyday products—from plastics to detergents—are made through chemical reactions that mostly use precious metals ...

Catalysts are the invisible engines of hydrogen energy, governing both hydrogen production and electricity generation.

A new type of catalyst that uses five times less platinum than usual could help make hydrogen production more affordable in ...

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not used up or chemically changed during the reaction. Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living ...

Note: This video is designed to help the teacher better understand the lesson and is NOT intended to be shown to students. It includes observations and conclusions that students are meant to make on ...

Diamond nanoparticles can catalyze a major industrial reaction more effectively and under simpler conditions than the standard commercial transition-metal-based catalyst typically used for that ...

For the first time, chemists have developed a titanium catalyst that makes light usable for selective chemical reactions. It provides a cost-effective and non-toxic alternative to the ruthenium and ...

The discipline of Catalysis and Reaction Engineering (CRE) seeks to control and understand the networks of reactions that occur in ‘reactors’ ranging from cellular compartments up to world-scale ...

Under formaldehyde-acetic acid condensationreaction conditions, the V4+ phase (VO)2P2O7 remains stable, while V5⁺ phases transform due to lattice oxygen loss. They ultimately form a reduced V4⁺ phase ...

BERKELEY, Calif., Oct. 22 (UPI) -- U.S. scientists say they have, for the first time, witnessed nanoscale catalysts as they change during a reaction. The researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's ...
