Fukuoka, Japan—Hydrogen peroxide is a ubiquitous chemical found in most homes and used in everything from dying hair to treating wounds. It is also an invaluable agent for many industries from food, ...

A team from Forschungszentrum Jülich and RWTH Aachen University has developed a novel approach for a catalyst that combines the advantages of the two most commonly used catalysis methods. The new ...

The process of catalysis—in which a material speeds up a chemical reaction—is crucial to the production of many of the chemicals used in our everyday lives. But even though these catalytic processes ...

August 25, 2003—Chemists at the Office of Science's Brookhaven National Laboratory have developed a catalyst that achieves complete conversion of reactants to products and can easily be recovered and ...

Scientists say they have developed a “self-driving” lab that uses artificial intelligence (AI) and automated systems to provide in-depth analyses of catalytic reactions used in chemical research and ...

Researchers from Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) have discovered a new method to produce sustainable palm-based biodiesel by ...

On a summer day about 20 years ago, Paul Chirik returned to his laboratory after a conference with a question on his mind: Why do chemists use expensive rhodium to do hydrogenation reactions? Why ...

Scientists have made an advancement in the field of electrocatalysis. Their latest research sheds light on how catalysts can stay in unanticipated forms during the process of nitrate reduction. The ...

According to a study published in Nature Communications, a research team led by Associate Professor Jiong Lu from the Department of Chemistry at the National University of Singapore devised an ...

Scientists report the safe synthesis of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), an oxidizing agent used in multiple industries including semiconductors, using a new rhodium-based catalyst. The catalyst is based on ...
