The literature related to methanol-to-hydrocarbons (MTHC) technology over the past two
decades has been reviewed, covering mainly the methanol-to-olefin (MTO) and methanol-to …

Further progress in the field of heterogeneous catalysis depends on our knowledge of the
nature and behavior of surface sites on solid catalysts and of the mechanisms of chemical …

Polyolefins, the largest used commodity plastics in the world, find extensive application in
many fields. However, most end up in landfills or incineration, leading to severe ecological …

Bifunctional catalysis coupling CO2 to methanol and methanol to hydrocarbons is a
promising strategy for the direct hydrogenation of CO2 into high-value chemicals. However …

The three-dimensional arrangement of natural and synthetic network materials determines
their application range. Control over the real-time incorporation of each building block and …

Atoms and molecules in all states of matter are subject to continuous irregular movement.
This process, referred to as diffusion, is among the most general and basic phenomena in …

Zeolites seem destined to become the medium of choice for a wide spectrum of selective
reactions and adsorptive separations. The range of known framework compositions andpore …

Zeolites occur in nature and have been known for almost 250 years as alumino silicate
minerals. Examples are clinoptilolite, mordenite, offretite, ferrierite, erionite and chabazite …

The elementary reactions leading to the formation of the first carbon–carbon bond during
early stages of the zeolite‐catalyzed methanol conversion into hydrocarbons were identified …

Zeolite MFI is a widely used catalyst and adsorbent that also holds promise as a thin-film
membrane. The discovery of nanometre-thick two-dimensional (2D) MFI nanosheets has …
