A team of researchers from the University of Delaware (UD) have reported their findings about a new chemical reaction that uses palladium as a catalyst in a process where carbon-hydrogen bonds are converted to carbon-silicon bonds. The process could lead to development of new materials, and it has a huge potential in development and manufacture… »

Current traditional methods used to produce hydrogen rely on natural gas which releases carbon dioxide during conversion. There are alternative ways that are yet to be improved, such as MIT’s Artificial Leaf and other artificial photosynthesis systems, and researchers from University of Delaware (UD) came up with a different approach by designing a reactor that… »
