New superacid: Substance converts harmful compounds into sustainable chemicals
Discovery could convert non-biodegradable fluorinated hydrocarbons and, in perspective, even climate-damaging greenhouse gases
28-Feb-2023 -
Researchers at Paderborn University have succeeded in producing very special catalysts, known as “Lewis superacids”, which can be used to break strong chemical bonds and speed up reactions. The production of these substances has, until now, proven extremely difficult. The chemists’ discovery ...
