The updated and renovated scientific and educational laboratory “Heterogeneous Catalysis”, equipped with fifteen unique installations, opened at SRSPU (NPI) on April 18. Preferential funding for the creation of the laboratory was allocated under the Priority 2030 program.

Scientists from the N.D. Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the M.I. Platov South Russian State Polytechnic University for the first time applied high-resolution mass spectrometry to study the evolution of Pd/N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes under close to catalytic conditions.

The scientific journal “Applied Catalysis A: General” published an article by scientists from the Scientific Research Institute “Nanotechnologies and New Materials” of SRSPU (NPI) “Tuning selectivity in low-temperature Fischer-Tropsch synthesis by applying gas recycle mode.” The work describes a new approach for the synthesis of heavy waxes (ceresin) and long-chain olefins from synthesis gas on a cobalt Fischer-Tropsch synthesis catalyst developed at the Scientific Research Institute NTHM.

On the website of the Institute of Organic Chemistry named after N.D. Zelinsky Russian Academy of Sciences On February 27, an interview with Viktor Mikhailovich Chernyshev, professor of the Russian Academy of Sciences, director of the collective use center “Nanotechnologies” of SRSPU (NPI), was published.

Scientists of the Faculty of Technology, employees of the Research Institute "Nanotechnology and New Materials" and their innovative developments are at the top of our news. They always, and not only on the Day of Russian Science, have something to tell readers and listeners about. These wizards of flasks and retorts are able to arouse interest even among those who are far from chemistry. And this is not accidental…
