CatDRX is a generative AI framework developed at Institute of Science Tokyo, which enables the design of new chemical catalysts based on the specific chemical reactions in which they are used. The ...

Researchers develop an AI-based platform that integrates reaction data with catalyst performance for the design of new ...

Researchers from the Fritz Haber Institute of the Max Planck Society have unveiled fundamental new insights into the working ...

A carefully engineered gold catalyst has just pushed green chemistry into new territory, setting a performance benchmark that ...

A new catalyst design could transform how acetaldehyde is made from renewable bioethanol. Researchers found that a carefully ...

The electron is an efficient catalyst for conducting various types of radical cascade reaction that proceed by way of radical and radical ion intermediates. But because electrons are omnipresent, ...

As a teenager in the 1960s, Charles V. Johnson of Lake Geneva, Wis., was tinkering with his chemistry set when he discovered that earwax could serve as a catalyst for making pigments. Later on, as a ...

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.

The growing emphasis on environmental stewardship and the circular economy has accelerated interest in depolymerization ...

Bert M. Weckhuysen has a dream. Someday he’d like to produce a movie showing what happens on a catalytic solid at a submolecular level. That dream remains out of reach, he admits. But after more than ...

Alkynes have many uses in industry. Until now, it was assumed that gold- or platinum-based catalysts were absolutely necessary for certain chemical reactions with alkynes. Chemists have now succeeded ...
