Higher alcohols (C2+ alcohols), which are important raw materials, have been used as the intermediates of valued products. They are also widely applied in various fields of fuel, food, fine chemicals, pharmaceuticals and ...
Researchers in the Oregon State University College of Science have developed a dual-purpose catalyst that purifies herbicide-tainted water while also producing hydrogen.
Recently, a team led by Prof. Lu Junling collaborating with Prof. Li Weixue's and Prof. Wei Shiqiang's team, revealed the conjugated dual size effect of core-shell bimetallic nanocatalysts for the first time, with the activity ...
A new type of catalyst breaks down polyolefin plastics into new, useful products. This project is part of a new strategy to reduce the amount of plastic waste and its impact on our environment, as well as recover value that ...
Tobias Ritter and his team have developed a methodology that can be used to form anti-Markovnikov products. This might be helpful to tackle synthesis problems. Their work has now been published in Nature Catalysis.
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) made by bridging metal-containing nodes with organic ligands are a type of ordered porous materials. The first case of MOFs reported by Yaghi et al. in 1995 sparked a frenzy in the research ...
The n-paraffin hydroisomerization catalyzed by bifunctional catalysts is one of the most important reactions in the chemical industry.
A team of scientists led by Professor Tanja Gulder at Leipzig University's Institute of Organic Chemistry, together with colleagues from the University of Regensburg, has developed a simplified and efficient method for the ...
Electrocatalysis is an interface-dominated process, in which the activity of the catalyst highly relates to the adsorption/desorption behaviors of the reactants/intermediates/products on the active sites. From the perspective ...
Shi Song, associate professor from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with Prof. Dion Vlachos from the University of Delaware, have developed a new strategy ...
