Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions or allow them to occur at lower temperatures or pressures. 1 When catalysts are used to control and enhance reactions, the process is called ...

Co@Y containing zeolite encaged isolated cobalt ions was developed as robust catalyst for the solvent- and additive-free selective oxidation of ethylbenzene to acetophenone, surpassing the benchmark ...

The CO 2-assisted dehydrogenation of light alkanes not only enables the production of basic chemicals like light olefins but also promotes the resource utilization of CO 2, co-producing feedstocks ...

A Northwestern University-led international team of scientists has, for the first time, directly observed catalysis in-action at the atomic level. In mesmerizing new videos, single atoms move and ...
