How gas nanobubbles accelerate solid-liquid-gas reactions

Solid-liquid-gas reactions are common in a variety of natural and industrial phenomena, including hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell reactions, heterogeneous catalysis, and metal corrosion in ambient environments. However, the transport of gas in liquids and the subsequent reactions at triple-phase interfaces are poorly understood. A joint research...

Synthesis of TNTNB represents new energy peak for organic explosives

Beijing Institute of Technology and China Academy of Engineering Physics researchers have developed a way to synthesize 1,3,5-trinitro-2,4,6-trinitroaminobenzene (TNTNB). They marked a new energy peak for organic explosives. The study was published in the journal Science Advances. Scientists describes how they synthesized the powerful...

Ethers have more sustainable future due to heterogenous catalysis

Scientists optimized chemical processes to ensure they are environmentally friendly and sustainable. It is becoming increasingly important. Catalysts play a key role as they can make reactions more efficient. Osaka University researchers have reported a zirconium oxide-supported platinum-molybdenum catalyst. It can promote the selective...

Astronomers discover a new type of star covered in helium burning ashes

German astronomers have discovered a strange new type of star covered in the by-product of helium burning. The stars might have been formed by a rare stellar merger event. The study has been published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. Normal stars have surfaces...

Biologists investigate smallest propeller on Earth

University of Exeter scientists have discovered new information about the tiny propellers. These tiny propellers have been used by single-cell organisms called archaea. Archaea are found in a vast range of habitats, like bacteria. These includes human bodies. But unlike bacteria they do not cause...

Scientists discovers activity among organisms thriving in extremely deep and hot subseafloor

Deep subseafloor biosphere was discovered in the mid-1990s. Since then, scientists have studied the conditions in which organisms thrive as it is isolated and food-deprived. They wondered which conditions set a limit to the existence of life. Scientists in 2016, set out to sea...
