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, ...

Researchers at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have developed a method that gives access to the valuable raw ...

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not used up or chemically changed during the reaction. Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living ...

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 ...

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

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 ...

Researchers at The University of Manchester have developed a groundbreaking air-stable ruthenium catalyst. The new catalyst maintains high reactivity while eliminating the need for specialized ...

The catalysts that buzz around inside a reaction are rather like a swarm of midges—you know they’re there, but each one is so small and fast that they seem impossibly difficult to track in flight.

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 ...

By investing in academic research and collaboration with Finnish universities, Neste aims to strengthen the scientific foundations needed to support future technology development, expand raw material ...
