Researchers to get a better look at how peroxides on the surface of copper oxide promote the oxidation of hydrogen but inhibit the oxidation of carbon monoxide, allowing them to steer oxidation ...

In a study appearing in Nature Catalysis, researchers from the Inorganic Chemistry Department of the Fritz Haber Institute ...

Controlling oxide dissolution is important to an enormous range of fields. These include nuclear power 1, the creation of new materials 2, the stability of glasses 3, human health 4,5, the design of ...

These reactions play a huge role in the catalysis-driven creation of common chemical platforms such as methanol, which is produced on the order of 10 million tons per year as raw material for ...

I wonder if you could produce claylike 2-D materials by dissolving sodium silicate in the water and aluminum in the metal. Also, I'm curious whether you could do something similar with a phosphate ...

Copper has a beautiful reddish hue, but when exposed to the elements, the metal undergoes a series of chemical reactions that make it turn green. But why does this color transformation occur? The ...
