Researchers from National Taiwan University and Chulalongkorn University developed a copper-based catalyst system that ...

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.

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 ...

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 ...

In chemical processes for producing pharmaceuticals, catalysts are a core technology that determines production speed and cost. However, until now, there has been a trade-off between "precise but ...

A new catalyst for breaking the tough molecular bond between carbon and hydrogen holds the promise of a cleaner, easier, cheaper way to derive products from petroleum, say researchers. Simple, ...

Researchers have invented a groundbreaking new catalyst technology that converts renewable materials like trees and corn to the key chemicals, acrylic acid, and acrylates used in paints, coatings, and ...

Researchers at The University of Manchester have developed a groundbreaking air-stable ruthenium catalyst. The new catalyst maintains high reactivity while eliminating the need for specialized ...

A carefully engineered gold catalyst has just pushed green chemistry into new territory, setting a performance benchmark that had resisted improvement for a decade. By pairing tiny deposits of gold ...

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs), also known as armed antibodies, are positioned to be a significant source of next-generation oncolytic therapies. There has been explosive growth in ADC R&D, ...
