Single-atom catalysts (SACs) comprise individual metal atoms—such as palladium (Pd), or platinum (Pt)—anchored on a high-surface-area solid support, which both isolates the metal and influences its ...

A research team led by Profs. FU Qiang and MU Rentao from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has uncovered the water-induced dynamic structural evolution of ...

Materials science and engineering continues to advance through research at the intersection of chemistry, physics, biology, and engineering. This ...

Heterogeneous catalysis—in which catalysts and reactants are of different phases, e.g., solid and gas—is important to many industrial processes and often involves solid metal as the catalyst. Ammonia ...

Magnetic nanocatalysts offer efficient chemical reactions and simple catalyst recovery, addressing key challenges in green ...

A major discovery is reshaping how scientists think about catalysts. Researchers have, for the first time, captured oxygen ...

Publishing in Communications Chemistry, researchers from Kyushu University have discovered a simple method of generating ...

A new study reveals an unexpected pathway in catalytic systems, where oxygen does not remain confined to surfaces but can ...

Turning carbon dioxide into useful chemicals is a key strategy for building closed-loop systems, a key step in mitigating climate change. But CO 2 is notoriously hard to activate, often requiring high ...
