Using nuclear magnetic resonance, researchers at ETH Zurich have studied the atomic environments of single platinum atoms in ...

Recently, a research team led by Prof. Bao Jun from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) revealed that the cobalt-based, oxide-supported, high-density Ir single-atom catalyst ...

A precious metal used everywhere from car exhaust systems to fuel cells, platinum is an incredibly efficient catalyst—but it's costly and carbon-intensive. Now, a serendipitous collaboration between ...

A new single-atom catalyst can produce hydrogen from urea at an exceptional rate. Liquid nitrogen quenching introduces tensile-strain on the surface of oxide support, stabilizing ultra-high ...

Artful single-atom catalyst for sustainable chemical and pharmaceutical synthesis. National University of Singapore. Journal Nature Communications DOI 10.1038/s41467-025-58579-8. Keywords ...

Single-atom catalysts (SACs), a new type of solid catalyst, have attracted a lot of attention for their ability to maximize the use of every atom and create well-defined, highly active reaction sites.

Scientists at Tokyo Institute of Technology (Tokyo Tech) have shown that single platinum atoms trapped in C12A7 crystals act as a stable and effective catalyst for the hydrogenation of nitroarenes ...

75% of reactions are due to 25% percent of atoms; the rest are lazy slackers. This may be too complicated an idea to get across as a coherent comment, but if you read this article as if it was ...

Definition: Single-atom catalysts (SACs) represent a novel class of catalysts that consist of isolated individual atoms anchored on a support material. These catalysts exhibit unique properties due to ...

Aug 16, 2022: Single-atom-kernelled nanocluster catalyst for carbon dioxide conversion (Nanowerk News) According to a study published in Nano Letters ("Single-Atom-Kernelled Nanocluster Catalyst"), ...

Single-atom catalysts, wherein individual atoms are disseminated over substrates, have taken a lead role in heterogeneous catalysis since the introduction of the concept in 2011. Combining the ...
