The job of a catalyst is to ultimately speed up reactions, which could reduce an hour-long process into several minutes. It has recently been shown that using external magnetic fields to modulate spin ...

As the chemical industry looks to cut emissions, reduce toxic waste, and decarbonize its core processes, one area under close watch is catalysis. Catalysts are the unsung heroes of industrial ...

Researchers proposed a novel strategy for using a magnetic field to boost the efficiency of single-atom catalysts -- thus speeding up helpful reactions used for ammonia production and wastewater ...
