(Nanowerk News) Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology (QIBEBT) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) proposed a novel strategy to fabricate 3DMXene-based ...

The ammonia molecule (NH3), a compound of nitrogen and hydrogen, is one of the most frequently produced chemicals worldwide and it is also used for the production of many other nitrogen-containing ...

Molecular evolution: How the building blocks of life may form in space New research offers evidence that humans -- and the rest of life on Earth -- may have been able to form with the right ...

The achievement involves using a zirconium metal complex to add hydrogen atoms to the nitrogen molecule and convert it to ammonia, without the need for high temperatures or high pressure.

A molecule of ammonia consists of one nitrogen atom linked to three hydrogen atoms. Unlike ordinary ammonia used for household cleaning, however, the newly found molecule doesn’t contain typical ...
