Covering metal catalyst surfaces with thin two-dimensional oxide materials can enhance chemical reactions – Science Daily
Scientists have discovered that physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions.

Physically confined spaces can make for more efficient chemical reactions, according to recent studies led by scientists from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory. They found that partially covering metal surfaces acting as catalysts, or materials that speed up reactions, with thin films of silica can impact the energies and rates of these reactions. The thin silica forms a two-dimensional (2-D) array of hexagonal-prism-shaped “cages” containing silicon and oxygen…
