A team at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz in Germany has published the first comprehensive ...

In a recent article, researchers from the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, emphasize the importance of multiscale modeling of catalysis in understanding and developing (electro)chemical processes.

Catalysis is a fundamental process in chemical science whereby a catalyst accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being consumed. By providing an alternative reaction pathway with a lower ...

When you hear the word "epoxide," what do you think? If anything, likely "glue." But epoxides are quite common in our ...

Optimization isn’t always about maximization: researchers at Tohoku University found a subtle rule where a bit of restraint ...

Al2O3 catalyst improves exhaust treatment for stoichiometric natural gas vehicles by promoting lower-temperature CH4 and NO ...

Plants and algae make their fuel from sunlight. Perhaps we could do the same using semiconductors. A team of scientists at ...

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 ...

In a recent study published in ACS Catalysis, researchers at Chiba University unveiled a redox-adaptive strategy that allows a single homogeneous cerium catalyst to catalyze two chemically distinct ...
