The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was enhanced through the development of a novel class of heterogeneous molecular catalysts incorporating an integrated magnetic field. Traditional methods for ...

Fukuoka, Japan—Hydrogen peroxide is a ubiquitous chemical found in most homes and used in everything from dying hair to treating wounds. It is also an invaluable agent for many industries from food, ...

Hydrogen peroxide, a versatile chemical used in a wide range of applications—from medical disinfectants to semiconductor manufacturing and water treatment—is an essential substance with global annual ...

Ensuring that water is safe to use and consume can be a real chore, especially for those who live in impoverished areas without access to safe drinking water. Here is where researchers at Stanford ...

A sprinkling of magnetic nanoparticles is just enough to power up catalysts, so they can make hydrogen peroxide production more efficient. Researchers have achieved a breakthrough in improving the ...

Photocatalytic production of hydrogen peroxide harnesses solar energy to convert water and dioxygen into H₂O₂ via sequential light-driven redox reactions. Central to this process are two ...

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up a chemical reaction. The catalyst is not used up or chemically changed during the reaction. Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living ...

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.
