Urea is considered a potential key molecule in the origin of life. ETH researchers have discovered a previously unknown way in which this building block can spontaneously form at aqueous interfaces – entirely without additional energy. Urea is one of the most important industrially produced chemicals...
How Urea Forms Spontaneously - Astrobiology
Urea is one of the most important industrial chemicals produced worldwide. It is used as a fertiliser, for the production of synthetic resins and explosives and as a fuel additive for cleaning car exhaust gases. Urea is also believed to be a potential key building block for the formation of biological molecules such as RNA […] The post How Urea Forms Spontaneously appeared first on Astrobiology.
Urea is one of the most important industrial chemicals in the world and also plays an important role in our body. It is created by the reaction of carbon dioxide and ammonia. However, it usually requires either high pressure and high temperatures, or suitable catalysts. But now a study shows that urea at interfaces between water and air also [...] Der Beitrag Wie sich Urea kann spontlich könnten erschien zuerst auf wissenschaft.de.
