DESCRIPTION

A RUDN chemist has developed a new method for synthesizing "yolk-shell" nanoparticles on the basis of titanium dioxide and graphene. The complex structure of the new particles allowed the scientists to carry out a selective oxidation for aldehyde production for many hours without the formation of any byproducts. The research was published in Applied Catalysis B: Environmental.
