Purdue researchers developed a mass spectrometry system that accelerates chemical reactions without heat or catalysts, ...

A new catalyst design could significantly improve the conversion of CO2 into methanol, an important fuel and chemical feedstock. Researchers separated key reaction steps across different catalyst ...

When we consume foods containing sugar and starch, they are converted into energy in the body's cells through a process called glycolysis. However, this process has a downside—it produces byproducts ...

The building‐block chemicals behind everyday products—like shampoo bottles, food containers, and kitchen spatulas—are largely ...

Personal care products influence the chemistry of the air swirling around us. Lotion and perfume disrupt chemical reactions that occur between ozone and skin oils, researchers report May 21 in Science ...

We’re surrounded by metals like iron, silver, copper, gold and magnesium. Most metals go through a chemical reaction when they are combined with other substances, but some metals react more easily ...
