Researchers have created a palladium-on-carbon catalyst for drug, pesticide, and plastic production that is very sparing in ...

A surface catalyst with a built-in sensor: that's what chemists built by bridging a size gap on the nano-scale. Their silver nanoparticles combine plasmon resonance with catalytic activity, making ...

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 ...

In addition, surface catalysis offers engineering flexibility and does away with the need to use some expensive materials. Yet despite its promise, chiral surface chemistry still hasn't made its ...

While chemists are often more familiar with homogeneous catalysis mechanisms, and chemical engineers are often more familiar with surface catalysis mechanisms, fewer researchers study both.

No matter what the catalyst's structure, though, it speeds up reactions without being changed itself. The strong suit of the Center for Catalysis and Surface Science and the Institute for ...

The Discussion will bring together established and early-career scientists, postgraduate students and industrial researchers from the heterogenous catalysis and surface chemistry communities to design ...
