Institute of Physical Chemistry of the Polish Academy of Sciences image: The modelling of phenomena observed in spectroscopic studies of material surfaces employs function discovered by S.

Physical chemistry lies at the interface of physics and chemistry, providing both a conceptual and quantitative framework to understand molecular interactions and energy transformations. This ...

Interactions between iron, water, oxygen and ions quickly become complex. MTU scientists developed a more precise method to observe how iron minerals like rust form. One can easily see with the naked ...

The Journal of Physical Chemistry C (Nanomaterials, Interfaces, and Hard Matter) publishes original experimental and basic research targeted to scientists in physical chemistry of nanoparticles, and ...

Much of the analytical work performed by physical chemists requires the use of sophisticated instrumentation and equipment. This article will provide a brief overview of the analytical instruments ...

A new surface chemistry technique has allowed researchers to determine the long-sought mechanisms of one of the most studied reactions in heterogeneous catalysis: the oxidation of carbon monoxide on a ...

Stuart Alan Rice, a longtime professor at the University of Chicago whose pioneering research shaped the field of physical chemistry in the second half of the 20th century, died Dec. 22 at the age of ...

Contact electrification—the proper name for what’s commonly called ”static electricity”—happens when two surfaces are brought together then separated. Any child who has ever rubbed a balloon on her ...

Physical chemists aim to develop a fundamental understanding at the molecular and atomic level of how materials behave and how chemical reactions occur, knowledge that is relevant in nearly every area ...

Redox and surface reactivity of transition metal based materials for batteries and electrocatalytic applications, physical and chemical properties of liquid electrolytes. Our research lies at the ...
