A catalyst developed at LIKAT in Rostock opens up new avenues in the synthesis of fine chemicals for pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and household chemicals, for example. Its effect is based on ...

Heterogeneous catalysis underpins a vast array of chemical processes in which reactions occur at the interface between a solid catalyst and fluid reactants. The interplay between surface structure, ...

Heterogeneous catalysis underpins a vast range of chemical processes, from fuel synthesis and pollution abatement to fine‐chemicals production. At its core lie elementary steps of adsorption, surface ...

Recent research has demonstrated that a rhodium (Rh) cluster of an optimal, intermediate size—neither too small nor too large—exhibits the highest catalytic activity in hydroformylation reactions.

Researchers have developed a solar driven catalyst material that harnesses the energy of a single photon to reduce carbon ...
