To understand the profound impact that some minds had on the development of the field of Industrial Chemistry, it is often necessary to take a step back and observe their work as a whole, along with all the studies and industrial processes that stemmed from it. Following the inspiring work collected in a paper dedicated to the outstanding career of Prof. Fabrizio Cavani and published last year on ACS Catalysis, we are once again humbled at the chance to compile and share all the studies on hydrotalcites as precursors for catalysts led by Prof. Angelo Vaccari, just published on Catalysis Today.

📢 New paper published in the Journal of Catalysis! "Structure Sensitivity in the Formic Acid-Driven Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation of Maleic Acid to Succinic Acid over Pd/C Catalysts." Characterization revealed that the sensitivity to the structure is not due to geometric effects but rather to electronic effects. This article is special because I co-authored it with my graduate advisor (Manuel López Granados), undergraduate advisor (Pedro J, Maireles Torres), and a visiting scholar from ICP-CSIC (Ana Orozco Saumell), among others.

Excited to have my 2nd paper from our lab, titled, "pKa as a Predictive Descriptor for Electrochemical Anion Adsorption" published in one of the top chemistry and catalysis journals, Angewandte Chemie International Edition (Impact Factor: 16.6). 📝🔬 In this work, conducted as part of my MS thesis, using experiments with single crystal electrodes, we have found that the adsorption of a series of carboxylate anions to a metal surface is linearly correlated with their acid dissociation constant (pKa). DFT calculations has further helped us to figure out that this correlation is dictated by the difference in their electron affinity. This work will be useful in the field of electro-catalysis, surface-modification through anion adsorption, i.e., self-assembled monolayer, or in other fields where anion-adsorption is important. I extend my gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Ian McCrum for the continuous support, mentorship and assistance with the DFT calculations and Clarkson University for the financial support. For those interested in delving deeper into the details of our study, you can access the paper through the following link: https://lnkd.in/g7iuWrqz Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or would like to learn more about our research! #researchpaper #electrocatalysis #anionadsorption #surfacechemistry #mccrumgroup

I'm happy to share my experience in January 2024 at "CONSTELLATIONS" Universitas Sumatera Utara 2024, a national essay competition focused on Innovation and the Contribution of Sustainable Chemistry to Environmental Issues. In this competition, I had the honor of presenting my paper titled "Ti3C2 MXENE NANOMATERIAL AS AN ELECTROCATALYST IN THE HYDROGEN EVOLUTION REACTION PROCESS FOR A CLEAN AND RENEWABLE ALTERNATIVE ENERGY". This research explains the role of Ti3C2 MXene nanomaterials as electrocatalysts in the hydrogen energy production process. This research demonstrates the importance of sustainable chemistry and further innovation to prepare for Net Zero Carbon in 2050. Participating in a Q&A session with USU chemistry professors specializing in inorganic chemistry and renewable energy was an honour. #RenewableEnergy #NetZero2050
