In this work, we propose a mixed metal oxide as a catalyst and demonstrate it’s ability to not only activate the MeOH molecule upon adsorption but also dissociate OeH and one of it’s CeH bonds. MeOH activation is compared ...

Conversion-type anode materials have been intensely studied for application in Li-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their potentially higher capacities than current graphite-based anodes. This work reports the development of a ...
Increasing demand of ethylene oxide and the cost of versatile chemical ethene has been a driving force for understanding mechanism of epoxidation to develop highly selective catalytic process. Direct epoxidation is a ...

Methane has long captured the world's attention for being the simplest yet one of the most notorious hydrocarbons. Exploring its potential to be converted into value-added products has raised compelling interest. In the ...
This study reports the electropolymerization of novel keto functionalized octaethyl metal porphyrins (Zn2+ and Ni2+) in the presence of 4,40 -bipyridine (4,40-bpy) as a bridging nucleophile. The polymer films were characterized ...
Ethylene epoxide (EtO) is used as raw material for a broad range of products from pharmaceuticals and plastics to paints and adhesives. Although the reaction of ethylene interacting with preadsorbed oxygen on Ag surface ...
Methanol is an interesting and important molecule to study because of its potential to replace existing fuels. It is also a prominent hydrogen source which can be used to generate hydrogen in-situ. ZnO is widely used as ...
