Resonant soft X‐ray scattering (RSoXS) is an emerging, powerful technique to probe the
nano‐to‐mesoscale structure of polymers and other molecules. It joins together small‐angle …

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) today represents a widespread and powerful
technique, able to monitor complex systems under in situ and operando conditions, while …

Although Ziegler–Natta (ZN) catalysts play a major role in the polyolefin market, a true
understanding of their properties at the molecular level is still missing. In particular, there is a …

In this paper, which is the first part of a more extended work, we elucidate the molecular
level structure of a highly active SiO 2-supported Ziegler-Natta precatalyst obtained by …

Preferential oxidation of CO (COPrOx) is a catalytic reaction targeting the removal of trace
amounts of CO from hydrogen-rich gas mixtures. Non-noble metal catalysts, such as Cu and …

The preferential oxidation of CO in H 2-rich mixtures (COPrOx) is a major catalytic reaction
utilized for hydrogen purification. In the exploration of alternatives to noble metals, cobalt …

Ce 3+ presence and formation in Ce-based UiO-66 Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) still
presents a debated evaluation between the employed characterization techniques. In this …

The development of Ce-based materials is directly dependent on the catalyst surface
defects, which is caused by the calcination steps required to increase structural stability. At …

This short review summarizes the main results achieved in the field of operando
spectroscopies applied to heterogeneous catalysts for olefin polymerization. Following a …

Direct reaction of carbon dioxide and methanol to produce dimethylcarbonate (DMC) is an
interesting process that allows the synthesis of such valuable product in a more …
