MXenes are adept at hosting catalytically active particles. This property can be exploited to create more potent catalyst materials that significantly accelerate and enhance the oxygen evolution ...

Since their discovery in 1991, researchers have made steady progress in CNT synthesis methods. Early techniques like arc discharge and laser ablation could produce small quantities of high-quality ...

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 energy transition requires not only new sources but also efficient ways to store and transport energy. Scientists at Kiel University (CAU) have now developed a novel catalyst that can convert ...

Platinum has long powered hydrogenation reactions across the chemical industry. But its cost and limited supply have pushed ...

KIST researchers develop atomically controlled MXenes as water electrolysis catalyst support. Molybdenum-based MXene electrocatalyst support reduces the cost of green hydrogen production 137 countries ...

CAMBRIDGE, MA -- Although it is less abundant than carbon dioxide, methane gas contributes disproportionately to global warming because it traps more heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, due to ...

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology have unveiled a clever new approach to photocatalytic hydrogen production ...

Gold is helping scientists turn plant-based ethanol into valuable industrial chemicals by keeping a delicate reaction under ...
