Researchers develop method to improve skeleton of common chemicals
09-Dec-2019
Every chemical, from the simplest to the most complex, have a structural skeleton of atoms. The atoms can be added or removed to transform the chemical into different types, for use in different applications. For many pharmaceutical and agricultural chemicals, the skeleton consists of a ...
Researchers develop chemical reaction method for more efficient drug production
17-Sep-2019
Researchers at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) in Japan and Mount Allison University in Canada have developed a more efficient method to produce the building blocks needed for antibiotics and cancer treatment drugs. The building blocks the researchers set out to better ...
Researchers take two steps toward green fuel
Two-Step Saccharification of Rice Straw Using Solid Acid Catalysts
18-Jun-2019
An international collaboration led by scientists at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) , Japan, has developed a two-step method to more efficiently break down carbohydrates into their single sugar components, a critical process in producing green fuel. The breakdown process is ...
Phenyl addition made a poison useful for a chemical reaction in catalysis
20-Nov-2018
Scientists from Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Japan, have discovered that a catalyst poison, which deactivates homogeneous catalysts, can be "reborn" as an efficient ligand by introduction of a substituent, in chemical reactions. This finding is of service to expand the ...
Speeding up electrons in semiconductors
19-Oct-2018
Researchers from Graduate School of Bio-Applications and Systems Engineering at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT) have sped up the movement of electrons in organic semiconductor films by two to three orders of magnitude. The speedier electronics could lead to improved solar ...
Conjugated tetraenes from butadiene and alkynes
Ruthenium catalysts opens mild, efficient synthesis route
16-Jan-2018
Conjugated tetraenes are important key substructures in electronic materials, natural products and pharmaceutical molecules. However, they are difficult to synthesize. They are conventionally prepared by repetitions of the stoichiometric reactions using phosphorus reagents and subsequent ...
Evaluation of novel hybrid membranes for carbon capture
20-Nov-2017
Carbon dioxide (CO2) capture remains a priority in many countries as the world seeks to address climate change. In particular, the most recent report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change shows that geological storage of carbon dioxide is required for all scenarios that can meet 430 ...
Printed 'coffee rings' avoided with nanofibers
Cellulose nanofibers can help particles in ink and printed electronics disperse evenly
12-May-2017
Drying is an important part of printing words and electronics. Particles suspended in liquid are applied to a surface and the liquid evaporates leaving the particles behind. Many times, the particles dry unevenly because of the so-called 'coffee ring effect'. Much like when spilled coffee dries ...
