Single Atom Alloy Platinum-Copper Catalysts Cut Costs, Boost Green Technology

Friday, October 9, 2015 - 10:30 in Physics & Chemistry

A new generation of platinum-copper catalysts that require very low concentrations of platinum in the form of individual atoms to cleanly and cheaply perform important chemical reactions is reported today by Tufts University researchers in the journal Nature Communications. Platinum is used as a catalyst in fuel cells, in automobile converters and in the chemical […]
