Platinum is a useful as a catalyst for industrial chemistry. UC Davis researchers have developed a new technique to trap clusters of a few platinum atoms (white arrow on right) in nanometer-scale ...
Platinum costs roughly $31,000 per kilogram. Iron costs less than a dollar. That price gap has haunted the hydrogen fuel-cell ...
The "Platinum-Based Catalysts Global Market Report 2025" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The platinum-based catalysts market has experienced robust growth recently, with its value ...
A single-atom platinum catalyst lights ammonia at 200 °C and keeps it burning steadily at 1,100 °C with low NO x, generating high-grade, carbon-free heat for steel, cement and chemicals. Ammonia is a ...
A team of researchers has demonstrated that a single-atom iron catalyst can match platinum’s performance in the oxygen ...
Researchers are increasingly looking to hydrogen fuel cell systems as alternate power sources for vehicles and other applications due to their fast refueling time, high energy density and lack of ...
Researchers have devised a method for combining high-cost platinum and a low-cost rare earth element, lanthanum, as an alloy to serve as a catalyst in the next generation of fuel cells that will ...
Chinese researchers have developed a new catalyst that could make hydrogen production cheaper and more efficient by reducing the amount of platinum needed. Hydrogen is often promoted as a clean energy ...
Researchers have developed a durable new catalyst that produces clean hydrogen without relying on expensive platinum metals.
A new technique to trap clusters of platinum atoms in nanoscale islands could lead to more efficient catalysts for the chemical industry. Noble metals such as platinum can make useful catalysts to ...
(Nanowerk News) Noble metals such as platinum can make useful catalysts to accelerate chemical reactions, particularly hydrogenation (adding hydrogen atoms to a molecule). The research team led by ...
