Chemists have identified a mechanism that allows molecules to diffuse rapidly on the already crowded surface of a solid-state catalyst - an important capability, especially for efficient catalysis ...

Due to their use in the creation of ‘designer’ catalysts, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are becoming an increasingly important tool in synthetic chemistry. These catalysts can be designed and ...

The use of efficient catalytic agents is what makes many technical procedures feasible in the first place. Indeed, synthesis of more than 80% of the products generated in the chemical industry ...
