A catalyst is any substance that works to accelerate a chemical reaction. It can be organic, synthetic or metal. The process by which this substance speeds up or slows a reaction is called catalysis. For any process to occur, energy, known as activation energy is required. Without the help...

For many applications PAAs are used in form of alkali metal or amonium salts e.g. sodium polyacrylate. Polymethyl acrylate is an acrylic resin used in an emulsed form for lacquer, textile finishes, adhesives and, mixed with clay, to gloss paper. Another acrylic resin is polymethyl ...
As an integral part of your vehicle’s exhaust system, the catalytic converter is designed to reduce certain gases and pollutants emitted from the exhaust of vehicles equipped with an internal combustion engine. Since 1975, vehicles have needed a catalytic converter to meet federally mandated emission...
Chapter 1: What is Titanium Metal?Titanium, denoted by the symbol “Ti” and holding the atomic number 22, is a chemical element with an atomic weight of 47.9. It ranks as the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust. Titanium is primarily extracted from minerals such as rutile ...
This new process involves a liquid metal catalyst(催化剂) that is efficient in conducting electricity. CO2 gas is dissolved in a container with some liquid. Once electricity charge is introduced, the CO2 begins to turn into solid pieces of carbon, which can be collected and...
If phrases like "platinum status" and "going platinum" are to be believed, the precious metal is the best and baddest in all the land. But how elite is it actually, particularly when compared with its best frenemy, gold? Platinum Vs. Gold Platinum is a naturally occurring chemical element...
Catalyst is still a work in progress as Apple continues to provide the tools developers need to create or transition their apps. At the 2019 iteration of Apple’s annualdeveloper conference, WWDC,the company released the Xcode SDK that developers will need to create universal apps. Once created...
In the reactor stage, the pre-treated feedstock is passed through a catalyst bed, where the straight-chain hydrocarbons are converted into branched-chain isomers. The catalyst used in the isomerization process is typically a metal such as platinum or palladium supported on a porous material such ...
the value of a country's currency is based on a fixed quantity of gold. In practice, central banks made sure that domestic currency (paper money) was easily convertible into gold at a specific fixed price. Gold coins also circulated as domestic currency alongside other metal coins and notes....
