• LANXESS: Combining business segments bears fruit

  Specialty chemicals company LANXESS combined all its additive-related business segments in the new Rhein Chemie Additives business unit (ADD) in early 2015, and the move is bearing fruit. One synergy effect is the more efficient utilization of phosphorus plants operated by the company at various sit more

• Chemists explain the molecular workings of promising fuel cell electrolyte

  Researchers from New York University and the Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart reveal how protons move in phosphoric acid in a Nature Chemistry study that sheds new light on the workings of a promising fuel cell electrolyte. Phosphoric acid fuel cells were the first modern fuel cell types to be used more

• Reducing production costs and environmental footprint for semiconductor industry

  Solvay and TNO have developed together a new process for the purification of Phosphoric acid. Based on a novel and very precise crystallisation technology perfected by TNO, the TNO HWC®. This technology is especially suited to producing Phosphoric acid that meets the extremely stringent purity requi more

Coke & Diet Coke

Over the past week, you may well have seen a couple of graphics purporting to explain the effect that drinking a can of Coke or Diet Coke has on your body. They’ve been picked up by a range of online news and media sites, and as a result circulated widely. Unfortunately, although some of the informa more

The Chemistry Behind Your Home’s Water Supply

We take for granted the water that comes out of the taps in our home when we turn them on – but a lot of work goes into getting it there. Chemistry, too, has a hand in making sure that the water is safe to drink. Here, we take a look at the water treatment process, and in particular the chemicals us more

The Chemistry of Limescale

Limescale is a substance you’ve undoubtedly encountered, be it clogging up your kettle, or building  up on your bathroom surfaces. But how does it get there in the first place, and how do limescale removers work to get rid of it? Those are the questions this graphic aims to answer. more

• Asymmetric Organocatalytic Synthesis of Chiral 3,3-Disubstituted Oxindoles via 1,6-Conjugate Addition Reaction

  A highly efficient synthesis of chiral 3,3-disubstituted oxindoles was developed by using a chiral spirocyclic phosphoric acid catalyzed 1,6-conjugate addition reaction of para-quinone methoids derived from N-unprotected isatins with indoles. The reaction proceeds under mild reaction conditions to p more

• From Glucose-Based Carbohydrates to Phenol-rich Bio-oil Integrated with Syngas Production via Catalytic Pyrolysis over Activated Carbon Catalyst

  The catalytic pyrolysis of carbohydrates over phosphoric acid-activated carbon catalyst (ACC) was investigated to obtain phenol-rich bio-oil and syngas production in a facile fixed-bed reactor for the first time. A central composite experimental design (CCD) was used to optimize the reaction conditi more
