In a new study, chemists have developed a novel framework for determining how effectively carbon monoxide sticks to the ...

A new gold-perovskite catalyst achieves record-high acetaldehyde yields from bioethanol at lower temperatures. Acetaldehyde plays an important role as a chemical building block and is commonly ...

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.

Modern chemistry is increasingly focused on developing sustainable processes that reduce energy consumption and minimize waste. Photocatalysis, which uses light to promote chemical reactions, offers a ...

Scientists have long noted with interest that in one of nature's crucial chemical reactions—the oxygen evolution reaction—it ...

The energy transition requires not only new sources but also efficient ways to store and transport energy. Scientists at Kiel ...

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Benjamin List and David MacMillan, for their work developing a new class of catalyst. The technique is based on small organic molecules and has ...

Guided by quantum chemical calculations, scientists design and test a new single atom catalyst that converts propane to propylene with 100% efficiency, with little deactivation by coking. If adopted ...

In a year that has already battered manufacturing supply chains, yet another shortage is complicating manufacturers' and consumers' lives: plastics, and the food packaging, automotive components, ...
