This is one of the weirdest and most intriguing catalysts I have encountered.
A real head-scratcher!

Impact of Tungsten Loading on the Activation of Zeolite-Based Catalysts for Methane Dehydroaromatization
To improve the performance of zeolite-based catalysts for the methane dehydroaromatization (MDA) reaction, it is of importance to understand the nature of the catalytically active phase. Although many...

Had a great time visiting @pauldauenhauer.bsky.social and his group at the University of Minnesota last week. Thanks, Paul for the hospitality and for inviting me to give a talk on the effect of dynamic stress on catalysis at the annual meeting of the Center for Programmable Energy Catalysis.

Check out the supplementary cover of ACS Catalysis, which highlights my perspective on operando spectroscopy for metal catalyst characterization!

A New Look at Catalyst Surfaces at Work: Introducing Mixed Isotope Operando Infrared Spectroscopy (MIOIRS)
This Perspective focuses on the characterization of supported metal catalysts by operando and CO infrared (IR) spectroscopy. CO IR spectroscopy is a powerful technique for probing catalyst surfaces an...

In our new #preprint out on ChemRxiv @chemrxiv.bsky.social, we show evidence of mobile and reactive hydrides of silica, formed by hydrogen spillover in Ni/SiO2 catalysts.
Congrats to Bram Kappé and the team that made this possible!

Formation and Reactivity of Silicon Oxyhydrides in Nickel Hydrogenation Catalysts Supported on Silica
Silica is generally regarded as an inert support in the field of heterogeneous catalysis, including hydrogenation-dehydrogenation catalysis, on which hydrogen spillover is debated. Since supported hyd...

Yesterday @pauldauenhauer.bsky.social gave a great lecture at the Institute for Sustainable and Circular Chemistry at @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social. Really enjoyed the discussion and dinner. Have many new recommendations for movies and books too!
