The determination of catalytic-reaction mechanisms involves collecting a plethora of clues about how starting materials come together and interact with a catalyst and each other to form products. One ...

Chemists have developed a new theoretical framework for more accurately predicting the behavior of catalysts. The study reveals how conditions such as temperature and pressure can change a catalyst's ...

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 been studying the industrial production of ammonia for a century. But they've struggled to find ways to ...

In a recent study published in ACS Catalysis, researchers at Chiba University unveiled a redox-adaptive strategy that allows a single homogeneous cerium catalyst to catalyze two chemically distinct ...
