Recently, a research team led by Professor Chen Ping and Professor Guo Jianping in our group, in collaboration with a team of Professor Tejs Vegge from the Technical University of Denmark, revealed the reaction mechanism of nitrogen fixation and hydrogenation to produce ammonia by non-transition metal-based barium hydride (BaH2) through a combination of experimental design and theoretical calcu...
Recently, our group, in collaboration with Associate Professor Wu Anan from Xiamen University, has made new progress in the research of catalytic ammonia synthesis. We discovered in situ generated samarium hydrogen (Sm‒H) species on the surface of samarium oxide-supported ruthenium clusters (Ru clusters/ Sm2O3) ammonia synthesis catalysts and revealed their catalytic mechanism of participation...
Recently, our group was invited to publish a review article on hydride-mediated activation and transformation of nitrogen molecules.Ammonia is an important bulk chemical and an energy carrier with great application prospects. "Activation and conversion of nitrogen to ammonia under mild conditions" is a challenging research topic pursued by generations of chemists.The activation and transformati...
Recently, a research team led by Professor Chen Ping and Professor Guo Jianping from our group, in collaboration with a team of Associate Professor Wu Anan from Xiamen University, has made new progress in the research of catalytic selective hydrogenation of alkynes. The collaborative team applied coordination hydride materials to the catalytic selective hydrogenation of alkynes and developed a ...
Recently, a research team lead by Professor Chen Ping and Professor Guo Jianping from our group, in collaboration with a team of Professor Tejs Vegge from the Technical University of Denmark, a team of Li Haiyang and a team of Jiang Ling from our institute, have made important progress in the research of catalytic synthesis of ammonia. For the first time, the team applied coordinated hydride ma...
Recently, our research group, in collaboration with Professor Weidenthaler from the Max Planck Institute for Coal Chemistry in Germany and Associate Professor Wu Anan from Xiamen University, discovered a Ba-Cr quaternary nitride-hydride catalyst that achieves the catalytic synthesis of ammonia under relatively mild conditions.Ammonia is not only the main raw material for nitrogen-based fertiliz...
Recently, our group published a perspective article on the impact of alkaline (earth) metals on green ammonia synthesis.Ammonia has attracted much attention as an important hydrogen storage or energy storage carrier. With the increasing depletion of fossil energy and the development and utilization of renewable energy, the transformation and upgrading of the traditional synthetic ammonia indust...
Professor Ping Chen and Professor Jianping Guo from our research group were recently invited by Nature Catalysis to write a retrospective article titled "Ammonia History in the Making." The article highlights the significant contributions of Professor Gerhard Ertl, the 2007 Nobel Prize winner in Chemistry, to the catalysis of synthetic ammonia.Gerhard Ertl is one of the pioneers of modern surfa...
