The acidity of the atmosphere is increasingly determined by carbon dioxide and organic acids such as formic acid. The second of these impact the growth of clouds and pH of rainwater. But the chemical ...

I’m a big-time chemical and a clue to how chemists are celebrating Earth Week this year. What molecule am I? Formic acid is the simplest carboxylic acid. Its discovery in the distillation products of ...

As the world seeks solutions to reduce carbon emissions and transition toward a sustainable and cost efficient chemical industry, efficient utilization of CO₂ has become a major challenge. In response ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has unveiled a novel electrochemical system that converts carbon dioxide (CO₂), a major contributor to climate change, into high-value chemical products, like ...
