✦ Synopsis


nanoparticles perform as catalysts for these reactions depend on which of their crystal faces are exposed. Researchers at Northwestern University's Institute for Catalysis in Energy Processing have discovered a new strategy for fabricating metal nanoparticles in catalysts that promise to enhance the selectivity and yield for a wide range of structure-sensitive catalytic reactions. The team, led by Laurence D Marks, professor of materials science and engineering at the McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, discovered that they could design nanoparticles by designing the particle's support structure.

organometallic methods. A test was conducted where a mixture of methane and propane was converted to ethane at 250Β°, with almost 100% selectivity. The results indicated that methane can replace hydrogen to cleave carbon-carbon bonds, saving costs and providing environmental benefits. The new catalys
