CAS Academician, Prof. Jihong Yu, and her team from Jilin University developed a post-treatment strategy based on metal replacement reaction using commercial ZSM-5 zeolite as a carrier, and successfully encapsulated a highly active PtCu alloy catalyst in the pores of the zeolite.

The 2021 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Benjamin List and David MacMillan, for their work developing a new class of catalyst. The technique is based on small organic molecules and has been instrumental in pharmaceutical research since.

In a year that has already battered manufacturing supply chains, yet another shortage is complicating manufacturers' and consumers' lives: plastics, and the food packaging, automotive components, clothing, medical and lab equipment and countless other ...

Researchers at the Institute of Chemistry, CAS, have developed a light-driven catalytic system based on Au/NiCo2O4 photoanodes that efficiently converts styrene to epoxide using water as the sole oxygen source.

A team of scientists have developed a catalyst that converts plastic waste into liquid fuels faster and cleaner.
