加拿大多伦多大学日前发布新闻公报说,该校化学家成功开发出一种以铁为基础材料的低成本“绿色”催化剂。目前制造药品、香水等化工产品使用的铂族金属催化剂不仅价格高,而且通常有一定的毒性,需要采用净化技术将有毒金属清除。多伦多大学化学系科研人员在新一期《化学》杂志上发表论文说,他们最新开发的催化剂利用了铁这种价格便 University of Toronto, Canada recently released a press release said that the school chemists successfully developed a low-cost iron-based materials “green ” catalyst. At present, the platinum group metal catalysts used in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, perfumes and other chemical products are not only expensive but usually have some toxicity and require the use of purification technology to remove toxic metals. Researchers at the Department of Chemistry at the University of Toronto published a paper in the new issue of Chemistry saying their newly developed catalyst makes use of the price of iron
