"High-entropy alloys have been a black box for catalysis because you could never control the surface,” Mirkin said. “We fixed ...

Researchers from National Taiwan University and Chulalongkorn University developed a copper-based catalyst system that ...

Green synthesis and catalytic methods are revolutionising organic chemistry by offering sustainable alternatives to traditional synthetic processes. These approaches prioritise the use of ...

Using high-temperature shock technology, bulk copper was successfully converted into Cu single-atom catalysts (0.54 wt% Cu loading) within 0.5 seconds, effectively preventing atomic aggregation. In ...

A cheap, earth-abundant metal is proving it can do work long reserved for far more expensive catalysts, and the implications ...

The novel iron-based catalyst exhibits superior performance for ammonia (NH3) synthesis compared to a well-established, century-old counterpart. By designing this new catalyst with an inverse ...

In-situ quick XAFS measurements to unveil reaction mechanisms. X-rays were passed through a reacting sample under the influence of microwaves. The team discovered that a mononuclear intermediate ...

Researchers at Koç University have developed a light-driven method to produce porous semiconducting polymers under ambient conditions without the need for metal catalysts. The study, led by Prof. Dr.

Composed of five or more elements in nearly equal amounts, high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have emerged as promising catalysts due ...

Coupling reactions are among the most transformative tools in organic chemistry, enabling the formation of crucial chemical bonds in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and advanced materials. Since their ...

Scientists have long considered ketones (a fundamental chemical class) and esters (molecules formed when an acid reacts with an alcohol) to be locked treasure chests of possibilities. Ubiquitous as ...
