3. The active phase of Pt(110) during catalytic CO oxidation
University essay from Lunds universitet/Synkrotronljusfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionenAbstract : CO oxidation is an important topic in heterogeneous catalysis, due to its role in industrial processes such as pollution reduction in the auto industry, and ethanol or other fuel production. In the automotive catalytic converters CO oxidation reduces the poisonous CO to CO2 by reacting with O2. READ MORE

4. PAY TRANSPARENCY AND BARGAINING POWER: A MIXED-METHODS STUDY.
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenAbstract : Through a mixed-methods approach consisting of a European-wide survey and qualitative interviews, while using a multinational company as my case study, I explore employees´ perceptions of pay transparency as an effective action to close the gender pay gap. I argue that women´s perceived weaker bargaining power, spurring from gendered social norms, is preventing them from reaching similar pay levels to that of men, as well as managerial positions in which they represent a minority, which participates in upholding the gender pay gap.

5. PGE Geochemistry and Mineralogy of Dunite, Chromitite, and Laterite Samples from the Acoje Ophiolite Block, Philippines
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Geovetenskap och miljöteknikAbstract : Ni-laterites have the potential to become unconventional ore deposits for platinum group elements (PGE). This study was conducted to determine enrichment trends of PGE as a result of the Ni-laterization process. READ MORE
