When substances combine with oxygen the process is called oxidation and the compounds made are called oxides. The sparks in fireworks are made by burning different metals. The burning metals are ...

A mix of equal portions of metal ion precursors on a film of graphene oxide (left) are subjected to a photoflash from a Xenon lamp. Heated to more than 1,000 K, the precursors transform into ...

However, their small size poses difficulties for catalytic reactions ... to typical materials, such as carbon and silica, ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...

The Perrine research group focuses on understanding reactions and processes at surfaces and interfaces, from pure metals, oxides, minerals to heterogeneous catalysts. We use a surface chemistry and ...

Utilizing renewable energy sources such as solar and wind to power the electrolysis process may help reduce carbon emissions ... and durability of precious metal oxide catalysts.
