Electronic perturbation-promoted interfacial pathway for facile C–H dissociation
Pt-based catalysts have been extensively employed in catalytic propane dehydrogenation (PDH) processes, playing a crucial role in propylene production. However, monometallic Pt catalysts often exhibit inferior propylene selectivity due to the hydroge.....»»
The role of TOR signaling in enhancing graft success and crop vigor
A research team has delved into the Target of Rapamycin (TOR) signaling pathway in plant grafting, emphasizing its role in regulating seedling vigor, graft junction healing, and shoot-to-root communications. Exploring TOR's involvement offers a promi.....»»
New research could enable more—and more efficient—synthesis of metastable materials
Ion exchange is a powerful technique for converting one material to another when synthesizing new products. In this process, scientists know what reactants lead to what products, but how the process works—the exact pathway of how one material can b.....»»
