A streamlined pathway to value-added molecules

One day, farmers in developing nations could produce their own fertilizer on demand, using sunlight and nitrogen from the air

Photochemical reactions are one of the most eco-friendly ways of producing "green fuel"

A research team has made great, rapid strides toward the development of a specially designed molecule that can store solar energy for later use

Because of graphene's strength, high thermal and electricity conductivity, 3-D printed objects would be highly coveted in certain industries

Chemical engineers from ETH Zurich developed a new catalyst for forming a bond between two carbon atoms in a cost-effective and eco-friendly way

Arguably, the greatest fueler of life on our planet is photosynthesis, but understanding its labyrinthine chemistry, powered by sunlight, is challenging

Previous studies of such reactions have been limited to theoretical work with simplified models and experiments following a collection of molecules

Recent study demonstrates the benefits of the new highly diluted alloy of platinum in copper—a single atom alloy—in making useful chemicals from small hydrocarbons

Methanol is a key feedstock for the production of chemicals, some of which are used to make products such as plastics, plywood, and paint
