Hydrogen peroxide, a versatile chemical used in a wide range of applications—from medical disinfectants to semiconductor ...

Tiny bolts of plasma, flickering inside a submerged glass tube, may have opened a new route for turning methane into liquid ...

Scientists have engineered a highly selective catalyst that can convert methane, a major component of natural gas, into methanol, an easily transportable liquid fuel, in a single, one-step reaction.

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide to carbon monoxide represents an effective approach to both reduce greenhouse gas emissions and produce valuable chemical feedstocks.

Usually, a completely different catalyst is required in order to change site-selectivity," said Shimozono. "Counter to this dogma, Jose demonstrated that using B 2 Pin 2 as the boron source affords ...

Tsukuba, Japan—Extensive research has been conducted on the oxidation of methane to obtain methanol for the production of useful compounds, such as formaldehyde, dimethyl ether, etc. However, methane ...

The world's appetite for propene (propylene) is growing faster than the chemical industry can keep up. This petrochemical ...

Japanese researchers revealed that a novel palladium-loaded amorphous InGaZnOx (a-IGZO) catalyst converted carbon dioxide to methanol with over 91% selectivity. The study was published in the Journal ...
