THE well-known photosensitizing action of zinc oxide in oxidation reactions, where oxygen was considered to be the reactant photoactivated in the process and the sensitivity of certain gases in ...

More and more, tin-based perovskites are preferred to lead due to the latter element’s toxicity. As a 2021 study from ...

Foods which contain edible oils will spoil once exposed to oxygen from the air due to oxidation reactions. This chemical change results in a bad flavour and smell from the food. If left exposed to ...

In this reaction, carbon is oxidised because it gains oxygen. At the same time, copper oxide is reduced because oxygen is removed from it.

During beta-oxidation, fatty acid molecules are broken down by removing two-carbon units from the carboxyl end of a fatty acid molecule to produce acetyl-CoA.

Currently, over 95% of H2O2 is industrially produced using the anthraquinone oxidation process, which is highly ...

Producing clean hydrogen energy usually involves the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which has the unfortunate drawback of ...

A newly developed pentanuclear iron complex can offer an efficient, stable, and cost-effective solution for water oxidation. By electrochemically polymerizing the complex, researchers have obtained a ...

A breakthrough in renewable energy research has led to the development of a cost-effective and highly efficient iron-based ...

By incorporating gadolinium into a catalyst, its efficiency in a reaction that produces hydrogen fuel increases. This could be the boost we need to ...
