Enzyme-inspired dry-powder polymeric catalyst for green and fast pharmaceutical manufacturing processes

Chitosan-g-hematin: enzyme-mimicking polymeric catalyst for adhesive hydrogels.

Phenol derivative-containing adhesive hydrogels has been widely recognized as having potential for biomedical applications, but their conventional production methods, utilizing a moderate/strong base, alkaline buffers, the addition of oxidizing agents or the use of enzymes, require alternative approaches to improve their biocompatibility. In this study, we report a polymeric, enzyme-mimetic bio...

Applicability of Green Chemistry in Pharmaceutical Processes

Green chemistry is a tool, which when implemented right, can help the industry achieve its environmental goals.

Methanol synthesis catalyst manufacturing using the green solid-state method

In this research study, methanol synthesis catalysts were manufactured with various mole ratios of metal carbonates (zinc, copper and aluminum carbonate) and ammonium hydrogen carbonate via a green solid-state method that employed a ball mill apparatus. Some parameters for the catalyst preparation, such as Al mole percent, Cu/Zn mole ratio, rotations milling speeds and aging time, were optimize...
