associate professor of chemical engineering. “However, for the reaction to be economically viable, a catalyst such as palladium or platinum is invariably required to increase its reaction rate ...

Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign have developed a method to recycle platinum ... and the catalysts' ...

Scientists have found a way to create propylene using a light-activated catalyst. The energy-efficient process could lower ...

Catalysts are substances that increase the rate of chemical reactions. The researchers found ... such as rhodium, platinum, or palladium, in the converter to compensate for the catalyst's ...

In simpler terms, if the material holding the metal atom is good at pulling in electrons, the reaction works better. Even better, they found this relationship follows a clear pattern—meaning ...
