Current industrial use of methane as a chemical feedstock proceeds by initial conversion to
CO and H₂ by either steam reforming (the most widespread process) or by dry reforming …

We have combined the use of a molecular beam reactor and in situ spectroscopy (XPS) in
order to correlate changes in the rate of CO oxidation and the CO–NO reaction with the …

The Claisen rearrangement of allyl phenyl ethers results into valuable products for
fragrance, flavours, food, pharmaceuticals and intermediate industries and is typically …

The study evaluated the solvent-free oxidation of 1-hexene utilizing supported ruthenium
catalysts and a small amount of terbutyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as a radical initiator. The …

The preparation method of a heterogeneous catalyst is one of the most fundamental aspects
that can determine its morphology, surface area, phases present, elemental mixing and of …

The mutual influence of surface geometry (eg lattice parameters, morphology) and electronic
structure is discussed for Cu-Ni bimetallic (111) surfaces. It is found that on flat surfaces the …

We present a stochastic, time-discrete Boolean model that mimics the mesoscopic dynamics
of the desorption reactions A+ A→ A+ S and A+ A→ S+ S in a one-dimensional lattice. In the …

Catalysis, an integral part of surface science, is an extremely important phenomenon for our
modem industrial economy. More than 90% of all chemicals and materials are produced …

This contribution describes a non-aqueous, molecular precursor approach to the
preparation of mixed-element oxides, which allows a degree of molecular-level control over …

Catalysis of the Diels–Alder reaction between simple dienes and acrolein is catalysed by
silica, carbon, magnesium perchlorate and the organic compound bis-resorcinolanthracene …
