DICP scientists develop high-efficiency CO2 hydrogenation catalyst
Formate is a key chemical building block widely used across industries. Converting carbon dioxide (CO2) into formate via hydrogenation provides a promising approach to transform a greenhouse gas into a high-value chemical. However, while heterogeneous catalysts based on non-precious metals have been explored for this reaction, their practical application has been limited by low intrinsic reactivity.
