Infrared absorption spectroscopy has proven to be one of the most powerful spectroscopic
techniques available for the characterization of catalytic systems. Although the history of IR …

Chemistry on solid surfaces is central to many areas of practical interest such as
heterogeneous catalysis, tribology, electrochemistry, and materials processing. With the …

With the rapid development of the photovoltaic industry, the demand for new materials such
as EVA resin is increasing, and the study of its synthetic monomer vinyl acetate is of great …

The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass‐derived oxygenates into renewable fuels and
chemicals requires the control of bond‐scission sequences. For example, selective C …

The high adsorbate coverages that form on the surfaces of many heterogeneous catalysts
under steady-state conditions can significantly lower the activation energies for reactions …

Sulfate was incorporated into MnO 2 through an in-situ synthesis method, and various
techniques were employed to treat the sulfate-doped MnO 2 in order to obtain Mn 2 O 3-S …

The surface structure of bimetallic Pd/Au catalyst, accompanied by the presence of
potassium acetate (KOAc) are critical for synthesis of vinyl acetate (VAc). In this study …

Rapid identification of different compounds has been proven to be one of the most dynamic
fields in analytical chemistry. Herein, a very simple cataluminescence-sensor-based (CTL …

We perform systematic density functional studies to elucidate the mechanism of vinyl acetate
(VA) synthesis on Pd/Au (001). Atomic geometries, activation energies, and reaction …

The reaction pathways for the synthesis of vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) are explored on
model palladium and gold–palladium alloy single crystal catalysts by combining …
