Recent research has demonstrated that a rhodium (Rh) cluster of an optimal, intermediate size—neither too small nor too large ...

Abstract This study investigated the performances of Rh single-atom catalysts (SACs), cluster catalysts, and nanoparticle (NP) catalysts in olefin ...

Sometimes chemical reactions in the lab work the way you imagine them to, and sometimes they don't. Neither is unusual. What is highly unusual, however, is what a research team at TU Wien has now ...

A simple technique for fixing nanoscale rhodium catalysts inside porous organic polymers may be useful for manufacturers of products ranging from detergents to plastics, reports a new study published ...

The next generation of catalytic converters could have longer lifetimes and need fewer rare materials to operate, a new study suggests. The next generation of catalytic converters could have longer ...

Wilkinson’s catalyst, formally chloridotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I) [RhCl(PPh 3) 3], is a coordination complex that catalyzes a wide range of organic ...
