Controlling The Size Of Nanoclusters: First Step In Making New Catalysts To Control Polllution

Wednesday, July 9, 2008 - 16:35 in Physics & Chemistry

Researchers have developed a new instrument that allows them to control the size of nanoclusters -- groups of 10 to 100 atoms -- with atomic precision. They created a model nanocatalyst of molybdenum sulfide, the first step in developing the next generation of materials to be used in hydrodesulfurization, a process that removes sulfur from natural gas and petroleum products to reduce pollution.
