A new cobalt catalyst designed by Paul Chirik and coworkers at Princeton University gives chemists two mechanisms for the price of one. The team’s alkene hydrogenation reaction runs differently ...

When an LNO catalyst with a nickel-rich surface carries out a water-splitting reaction, its surface atoms rearrange from a cubic to a hexagonal pattern and its efficiency doubles. Deliberately ...

A team of chemists has uncovered an unexpected way to use phosphorus to perform chemical reactions typically reliant on rare ...

Better yet, the reactor works very efficiently. The team says that its production rate is up to 100 times more efficient than devices using other solar-powered catalysts. The next steps are to develop ...

Photograph of a floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition reactor. Recycling gases through this floating catalyst chemical vapor deposition reactor offers a more efficient route to making carbon ...

I was fascinated by the idea of jet packs when I was a kid. They were sci-fi magic, and the idea that you could strap into an oversized backpack wrapped in tinfoil and fly around was very enticing.

Researchers in the US have designed a catalyst that could significantly lower the cost ...

A research team reports they have created an organic reaction called α-allylation with simple ketones and allyl alcohols.

A high acid environment is great for a snappy hydrogen oxidation reaction—the reaction at the heart of a clean-energy fuel ...
