Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...

A catalytic mechanism is the sequence of elementary reactions by which a catalytic ... Here, the authors present a Ru 1-ZrO 2 catalyst that efficiently upcycles plastic waste into high-value ...

Catalysis is the increase in the rate of a chemical reaction by the addition of a ... catalyst interactions reveal two deactivation mechanisms, and additive-resilient catalysts and conditions ...

A new study provides fresh insight into traditional acid-base chemistry by revealing that the mutual neutralization of ...

The discipline of Catalysis and Reaction Engineering (CRE) seeks to control and understand the networks of reactions that occur in ‘reactors’ ranging from cellular compartments up to world-scale ...

Chemists reveal method for differentiating PCET mechanisms -- a key step for steering fundamental energy conversion and redox catalysis processes. Redox reactions form the basis of many ...

Nitrogen gas (N2) is one of the most abundant yet highly stable gases in the Earth's atmosphere. Its N≡N triple bond has an extremely high bond dissociation energy (~940.95 kJ mol⁻¹), making its ...

Researchers developed advanced catalysts that efficiently remove nitrogen oxides and carbon monoxide through simultaneous reactions, offering a stable and scalable clean air solution. The research ...

Catalysts, often considered the unsung heroes of chemistry, are instrumental in accelerating chemical reactions, and play a crucial role in the creation of most manufactured products. For example, the ...

Abstract The simultaneous removal reaction (SRR) is a pioneering approach for achieving the simultaneous removal of anthropogenic NOx and CO ...
