Catalytic hydrogenation represents an integral part of many critical industrial procedures. Standard processes comprise of the catalytic reduction of nitro groups to the equivalent amino compounds, ...

(Nanowerk News) The role of surface modification of nanoparticle catalysts in alkyne hydrogenation reactions was systematically investigated by the Center for Nanoscale Materials' NanoBio Interfaces ...

A variety of hydrogen sources (e.g., water, alcohols, formic acid, etc.) can be used in the reported SACs for TH. They are also capable of performing a variety of hydrogenation reactions. In a ...

Figure 1: Valorization of lignin-derived building blocks. Here, we describe the preparation, characterization and catalytic testing of novel ruthenium-based NP immobilized on a N-doped carbon support.

Despite natural evidence indicating sulfur's importance and efficiency as a catalyst for critical redox reactions, including hydrogenation (addition of hydrogen to molecule) and dehydrogenation (its ...

Synthesis reaction of Calcium superhydride under high pressure reproduced by the machine learning model. Here, the surface of calcium hydride (CaH 2) melts to absorb hydrogen molecules, then ordered ...

Hydrogenation is a chemical reaction between molecular hydrogen and an element or compound, ordinarily in the presence of a catalyst. The reaction may be one in which hydrogen simply adds to a double ...

In some industrial processes, flowing hydrogen molecules over solid surfaces containing catalytic metals reduces organic molecules by hydrogenation. On the basis of a mechanism proposed in the 1960s, ...

An illustration of a person in a lab coat looking at a picket fence. The field is various elements, metals specifically. Credit: Chris Gash On a summer day about 20 years ago, Paul Chirik returned to ...

Chances are you’ll eat something hydrogenated today. What does that mean? We’ll give you a quick tour of what hydrogenation is, how it’s done, and why many people don’t like it. To hydrogenate ...
