Heterogeneous catalysis refers to a wide range of catalytic solids and industrial processes for producing chemicals, materials, and fuels. Because of its broad nature, academic and industrial research in heterogeneous catalysis can be based on anything from the atomic...
What is a Mass Spectrometer? A mass spectrometer is an analytical tool that is used to identify one or more molecules or fragments of molecules in a sample by the sorting of gaseous ions according to their mass-to-charge ratio. Usually, mass spectrometers are used for...
Each year, the number of vehicles on the road increases. However, society’s desire for more sustainable and environmentally friendly options is also growing. Most people are aware of the impact of air pollution and the contribution from cars and trucks is a growing...
Operando spectroscopy is a critical tool in the field of catalysis. It takes its name from the Latin word for “working” as it covers spectroscopic analyses of catalytic reactions under working conditions. This differs from standard spectroscopic methods by combining...
Determination of hydrogen bound in steel is a vital factor in developing new steel types for ever more demanding applications. Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD), also known as Thermal Desorption Spectrometry (TDS) or Thermal Desorption Analysis (TDA) is a...
Temperature programmed reduction (TPR) is a material characterization process commonly used in catalysis characterization and screening to examine the surface chemistry of metals and metal oxides under varying thermal conditions. TPR-enabled mass spectrometry...
