Researchers at Nagoya University have created a more efficient iron-based photocatalyst that could reduce the need for rare and expensive metals in advanced chemistry. Unlike earlier designs, the new ...

The research provides the most detailed look yet at the surface chemistry of ferrihydrite, an important type of iron oxide minerals. "Iron oxide minerals are important for controlling the long-term ...

Maria Camila Aguilera, 4th year Chemistry PhD Candidate at the University of Rochester, Rochester NY US. Colombian chemist Maria Camila Aguilera is working on catalysts based on iron, which could open ...

A catalyst is a key ingredient for many chemical reactions. It facilitates a molecule to change into another molecule, without being changed itself, meaning it can be used multiple times. However, ...

In the early 1980s, researchers had concluded that dissolved oxygen (DO) ingress into condensate/feedwater was a prime factor for carbon steel corrosion (and unarguably corrosion of copper alloys) ...

Enzymes catalyze the critical chemical reactions that help build and power living organisms. But chemists studying the origin of life on Earth face a vexing question: How did these metabolic reactions ...

If used correctly, iron chelates can help treat deficiencies and chlorosis in plants, but improper applications can lead to phytotoxicity.

Researchers have created an iron catalyst that can facilitate important chemical reactions in place of the current catalyst, which is made from precious metals. A catalyst is a key ingredient for many ...
