Researchers have unveiled a low cost metal catalyst that can tear apart plastic waste around ten times more efficiently than traditional platinum based systems, potentially slashing the cost of ...

Aluminum's journey has been remarkable, going from being more expensive than gold to one of the most widely used materials, ...

Zeolites encapsulated metal and metal oxide species (regarded as metal@zeolite) is an important type of heterogeneous catalysts. They give performances that steadily outperform the traditional ...

Professor Paul Chirik leads a lab researching potential new catalysts for pharmaceutical and commercial applications.

Direct oxidation of methane to methanol is dominated by transition- or noble-metal-based catalysts, thus making the reaction quite expensive. To make the process efficient and cost-effective, ...

I was fascinated by the idea of jet packs when I was a kid. They were sci-fi magic, and the idea that you could strap into an oversized backpack wrapped in tinfoil and fly around was very enticing.

Scientists have for the first time filmed the real-time growth and contraction of Palladium nanoparticles, opening new avenues for utilising and recycling precious metal catalysts. Scientists have for ...
