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.

Solid catalysts underpin many of the large-scale chemical transformations used to manufacture modern materials, converting hydrocarbons — including renewable or recycled forms of carbon — into the ...

Applying an external magnetic field during the synthesis of CoFe2O4 electrocatalysts triples the ammonia yield during ...

Catalysts play an indispensable role in modern manufacturing. More than 80% of all manufactured products, from pharmaceuticals to plastics, rely on catalytic processes at some stage of production.

Researchers have created an iron catalyst that can facilitate important chemical reactions in place of the current catalyst, which is made from precious metals. A catalyst is a key ingredient for many ...

Researchers present a new generative AI model that can simultaneously design catalyst structures and predict their performance under specific reaction conditions. CatDRX is a generative AI framework ...

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not used up or chemically changed during the reaction. Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living ...

A chemical reaction can convert two polluting greenhouse gases into valuable building blocks for cleaner fuels and feedstocks, but the high temperature required for the reaction also deactivates the ...
