Catalysis
OverviewA catalyst is a substance or material that accelerates the rate of a chemical reaction without itself being consumed by the reaction. Catalysts are an essential component of many different industrial processes used to produce chemicals, foodstuffs and other materials. There is now a growing excitement about the potential gold may hold for catalysing industrial reaction. More...

![]() The blog that crosses the boundaries between research and the industrial application of gold technology Linking catalyst properties to particle size6 Nov, 2009 This weeks edition of Science carries a nice paper entitled Electronic Structure Controls Reactivity of Size-Selected Pd Clusters Adsorbed on TiO2 Surfaces. What the authors, based at the University of Utah, have demonstrated is the first conclusive link between the size of catalyst particles on a solid surface, their electronic properties and their ability to [...] |
