Portfolio expanded: New platinum catalyst for SO₂ oxidation in H₂SO₄ production
C&CS announces that it has added a new platinum-based honeycomb catalyst for the oxidation of sulfur dioxide (SO₂) for sulfuric acid production to its portfolio. The catalyst is designed to increase energy efficiency and reduce emissions in sulfuric acid production. Compared to conventional vanadium oxide-based catalysts, the platinum-based catalyst exhibits higher catalytic activity, a lower […]
C&CS at Nanogap metal molecules
During a visit to nanogap in Galicia, Dr. Nickl was amazed by the 5-atom particles with their incredibly precise particle size distribution. Or perhaps clusters, nanoparticles, molecules, metal clusters, or tiny crystals would be more accurate? These unusual chemical and physical properties are being used for quantum dots and pharmaceuticals, and now catalysts are also […]
