Scientists examine how a little-studied catalytic phenomenon can have outsized effects on chemical efficiency and selectivity ...

I was fascinated by the idea of jet packs when I was a kid. They were sci-fi magic, and the idea that you could strap into an oversized backpack wrapped in tinfoil and fly around was very enticing.

CatDRX is a generative AI framework developed at Institute of Science Tokyo, which enables the design of new chemical catalysts based on the specific chemical reactions in which they are used. The ...

Researchers develop an AI-based platform that integrates reaction data with catalyst performance for the design of new ...

The electron is an efficient catalyst for conducting various types of radical cascade reaction that proceed by way of radical and radical ion intermediates. But because electrons are omnipresent, ...

The road to a more sustainable planet may be partially paved with manganese. According to a new study by researchers at Yale ...

Researchers have invented a groundbreaking new catalyst technology that converts renewable materials like trees and corn to the key chemicals, acrylic acid, and acrylates used in paints, coatings, and ...

Researchers from the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society have unveiled fundamental new insights into the working ...

As a teenager in the 1960s, Charles V. Johnson of Lake Geneva, Wis., was tinkering with his chemistry set when he discovered that earwax could serve as a catalyst for making pigments. Later on, as a ...

Bert M. Weckhuysen has a dream. Someday he’d like to produce a movie showing what happens on a catalytic solid at a submolecular level. That dream remains out of reach, he admits. But after more than ...

The growing emphasis on environmental stewardship and the circular economy has accelerated interest in depolymerization ...
