Catalysts do several surprising things to assist with daily life -- from bread making to turning raw materials into fuels more efficiently. Now, researchers have developed a way to speed up the ...

Catalysis—the reduction of activation energy in a chemical reaction by a catalyst—plays a key role in the chemical industry, as well as in the development of sustainable technologies essential for ...

Polymer/whole-cell hybrid catalysts were created by synthesizing catalytically active polymers from the surface of Escherichia coli cells that recombinantly expressed enzymes. The surface-engineered ...

Synthetic chemistry provides an essential material basis for our clothing, food, housing, transportation, and medicine and is an important driving force for economic development. However, traditional ...

Catalysis is a foundational pillar of the chemical industry, enabling efficient and selective chemical transformations that underpin the production of a wide range of materials and processes. From the ...

Scientists have directly measured the minuscule electron sharing that makes precious-metal catalysts so effective. Their new technique, IET, reveals how molecules bind and react on metal surfaces with ...

The dataset, which the researchers have made available on the Open Reaction Database, is nearly five times as large as the ...

SandboxAQ's peer-reviewed AQCat25 research, published in npj Computational Materials, brings the magnetic behavior of catalysts into large-scale AI modeling and is now available publicly to ...

Catalysis provides viable solutions for achieving sustainability in response to today's environmental demands. The development of newer, sophisticated homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis methods ...
