Two new catalytic strategies offer ways to boost the Fischer–Tropsch process by preventing competing side reactions. The ...

In aliphatic or aromatic compounds, the replacement of hydrogen atom(s) by halogen atom(s) results in the formation of alkyl halide (haloalkane) and aryl halide (haloarene), respectively. In case of ...

It is appropriate for us to contemplate the growth of understanding of chemical kinetics which has taken place since the time of Planck. Understanding starts with the recognition by Stark in 1908 of ...

Previously, chemists tried to reduce CO 2 formation by coating iron catalysts with hydrophobic materials or graphene layers, ...

BUFFALO, N.Y. — Super-small particles of silicon react with water to produce hydrogen almost instantaneously, according to University at Buffalo researchers. In a series of experiments, the scientists ...

Scientists have discovered a new catalyst that allows the easy conversion of natural gas constituents into precursors for the production of fuels or complex chemicals, such as polymers or ...
