The job of a catalyst is to ultimately speed up reactions, which could reduce an hour-long process into several minutes. It ...

Propane dehydrogenation is a key industrial route to producing propylene without relying on oil. However, its current ...

A catalyst increases the rate of a reaction but it is not used up in the reaction. If a catalyst is present, the reacting particles can collide more successfully with less energy and so the ...

Scientists show that applying an external magnetic field can precisely tune the spin state of single-atom catalysts (SACs) and boost their performance.

Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...

Photocatalysis—a chemical reaction driven by light in the presence of a photocatalyst—is poised to play a key role in next-generation technologies, including hydrogen production through water ...

A catalyst alters the rate of a reaction, allowing it to be done at a lower temperature. Catalysts are therefore used in the chemical industry to make manufacturing processes more economical.

A new single-atom catalyst can produce hydrogen from urea at an exceptional rate. Liquid nitrogen quenching ... due to the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which requires a high ...
