Most of the drugs, plastics, and industrial materials widely used today are produced through chemical reactions. In general, most high-performance and sophisticated substances have complex structures, ...

Some people have streets named after them. Warren Piers, a chemistry professor at the University of Calgary, has a catalyst penned after him. And in a new paper, Piers reveals the inner workings of ...

For the first time, chemists have developed a titanium catalyst that makes light usable for selective chemical reactions. It provides a cost-effective and non-toxic alternative to the ruthenium and ...

A Northwestern Engineering research team has revealed a new approach to conducting chemical reactions — one that doesn’t require direct contact with a catalyst. In typical catalytic reactions, the ...

Enzymes are catalysts that accelerate chemical reactions in living systems. They reduce the energy required for chemical reactions to occur and act like a team of experts in construction projects, ...

Iron-nitrogen-carbon catalysts have the potential to replace the more expensive platinum catalysts currently used in fuel ...

Catalysis: They are essential in catalysis, particularly in processes like hydrogenation, hydroformylation, and polymerisation. For example, Ziegler-Natta catalysts, which are organometallic compounds ...

Platinum, one of the rarest and most expensive metals on Earth, may soon find itself out of a job. Known for its allure in engagement rings, platinum is also treasured for its ability to jump-start ...

The following data set records the results of an experiment to determine how the yield of a chemical reaction varies with temperature and amount of a catalyst used. data Experiment; input Temperature ...
