The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a key process in fuel cells and metal-air batteries, technologies expected to play a ...

In this video, I explain why some reactions explode while others cool, exploring the root cause of chemical energy. I discuss the chemistry behind endothermic and exothermic reactions, which involves ...

Scientists at Oregon State University have developed a new nanomaterial that triggers a pair of chemical reactions inside cancer cells, killing the cells via oxidative stress while leaving healthy ...

It has been revealed that simply twisting and stacking two layers of oxide crystals can allow the atomic arrangement itself ...

Taurine from octopus and squid neutralizes oxygen radicals that destroy perovskite solar cells, then regenerates to provide ...

“Looking at things at a very, very fast rate allows us to observe weird and wonderful phenomena,” Salamat says, calling the ...

The seawater-based zinc-air battery fabricated with Cl–Fe–N4 demonstrates a power density of 187.7 mW and maintains stable ...

Billions of cigarette butts end up on sidewalks, beaches, and gutters each year. They are small, easy to ignore, and hard to ...

Abstract: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are produced as metabolic by-products throughout the cell, including within the mitochondria by, among others, the electron transport chain (ETC). ROS are ...

Abstract: A graphene-oxide-semiconductor (GOS) planar-type electron source is coated with a hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) film to improve its oxidation resistance. The h-BN film is selected as a ...
