The Future of Fusion Research

Ongoing efforts in nuclear fusion research promise a cheap, clean, and safe energy source for future generations. In this blog post, we’re looking at how fusion power works, its advantages, and how fusion research is bringing us closer to commercial fusion reactors. Read

How do Heterogeneous Catalysts Promote Sustainability?

Catalysts can be broadly divided into two categories: homogeneous catalysts and heterogeneous catalysts. Homogeneous catalysts are so named because they are dispersed in the same phase as the reactant: for example, a liquid catalyst catalysing liquid reactants. Heterogeneous catalysts, on the other hand, exist in a different phase. Read more

Catalysis 101: Understanding Chemisorption

Chemical adsorption, also known as chemisorption is the process that results from a chemical bond between adsorbate molecules and particular surface locations on a material which are called active sites. This article will outline the process of chemisorption and its relationship to catalysis. Read more

Plasma Treatment of Medical-Grade Polymers

Plasma treatment of medical-grade polymers is a technique which is used to enhance their wettability as they are often challenging to print on and bond to because they have extremely low surface energy. Specialized plasma sampling mass spectrometers and Langmuir probes manufactured by Hiden assist the manufacture of plasma-modified medical-grade polymers by offering comprehensive plasma characterization.

Next Generation Automotive Catalysts for Greener Roads

Each year, the number of vehicles on the road increases. However, society’s desire for more sustainable and environmentally friendly options is also increasing. Most people are aware of the impact of air pollution and how much cars contribute to this is a growing concern for consumers. Automotive catalysts were one of the first means of decreasing the levels…
