DURING investigations of gas phase heterogeneous catalysis it is often necessary to demonstrate that the reaction products arise from the heterogeneous catalytic reaction and not from a homogeneous ...

The heterogeneous reaction of thiols with lead oxide to form insoluble lead thiolates is the basis for a new process that separates thiols from a hydrocarbon stream. The process uses inexpensive ...

The ease of separation of heterogeneous catalysts from the reaction environment makes them an essential component of simplified less energy intensive processes. Furthermore, newly designed catalytic ...

According to evidence from our laboratory, acidic surfaces on atmospheric aerosols lead to potentially multifold increases in secondary organic aerosol (SOA) mass. Experimental observations using a ...

Some of the present and future directions for surface science as a growing and naturally interdisciplinary subject are reviewed. Particular attention is given to surface reaction chemistry as it is ...

As global energy and environmental challenges intensify, solar-driven photocatalysis has emerged as a promising pathway for sustainable chemical conversion. Metal halide perovskites (MHPs), with their ...

Catalysts are substances that speed up chemical reactions or allow them to occur at lower temperatures or pressures. 1 When catalysts are used to control and enhance reactions, the process is called ...

Optimizing chemical reactions and finding the best ways to scale them up to produce compounds for clinical testing and drug commercialization can be tedious, time-consuming, and expensive. To overcome ...
