The direct conversion of methane (CH 4) into high value-added multi-carbon (C 2+) oxygenates, such as acetic acid (CH 3 COOH), under mild conditions offers a promising way for upgrading natural gas ...

A USC chemist has found what eventually could be a cheaper and more efficient way to create acetic acid, a petrochemical used in products ranging from aspirin to cosmetics. Acetic acid is typically ...

The chemical industry produced about 14 million metric tons of acetic acid in 2017 for use as a reagent to make monomers and other compounds, as well as for use in the medical and food industries.

In a new study, researchers teamed up to explore the potential of rhodium-based catalysts for this conversion under milder conditions. Scientists hoping to develop new energy resources have long ...
