Reduction is the gain of electrons by a substance. It is also the loss of oxygen from a substance. For example, copper(II) oxide can be reduced to form copper when it reacts with hydrogen: ...

Corrosion close corrosionThe destruction of a metal by oxidation or chemical action, eg rusting. happens when a metal continues to oxidise. The metal becomes weaker over time, and eventually all ...

The electrochemical oxidation of transition metal dichalcogenides generates 2D transition metal oxychalcogenides, offering enhanced stability and activity for electrochemical water oxidation.

"While the catalysts with transition-metal loading are quite popular, zeolite catalysts consisting of only main group elements for direct oxidation of methane to methanol remained unexplored ...

This review summarizes the catalytic performance of various metal-based catalysts in the CO2-assisted oxidative dehydrogenation of light alkanes, with the goal of identifying catalyst systems that ...

Since the first reports of the Kharasch-Sosnovsky reaction in 1958, the copper-catalyzed radical-mediated sp 3 C-H oxidation has emerged as an important method for the selective oxidation of ...
