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 ...

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, ...

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 ...

University of Pittsburgh researchers have made an important step toward providing hospitals and water treatment facilities ...

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

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

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 ...
