Subject:
alkalinity; alloys; catalysts; catalytic activity; cost effectiveness; durability; electrochemistry; engineering; iridium; oxides; oxygen production; phase transition; renewable energy sources; ruthenium
Abstract:
... The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a kinetically sluggish anodic reaction and requires a large overpotential to deliver appreciable current. Despite the fact that non-precious metal-based alkaline water electrocatalysts are receiving increased attention, noble metal-based electrocatalysts (NMEs) applied in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers still have advantageous features of larger ...

ISSN:
1460-4744
Subject:
alloys; anodes; cathodes; energy; ligands; models; nanocrystals; quantitative analysis; synergism
Abstract:
... The strain effect, along with the ligand effect and synergistic effect, contributes primarily to the optimization of electrocatalytic activity and stability. The strain effect leads to a shift in the d-band center and alters binding energies toward adsorbates. Under electrocatalytic circumstances, the strain effect and ligand effect by and large function in combination; however, the decay and vani ...

Subject:
Biological Sciences; Raman spectroscopy; X-ray absorption spectroscopy; X-ray diffraction; anions; batteries; cations; chromatography; dissociation; electrochemistry; mass spectrometry; nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy; quantum mechanics; salts; sulfur
Abstract:
... The well-known tendency of sulfur to catenate is exemplified by an extensive series of polysulfide dianions [Sₙ]²⁻ (n = 2–9) and related radical monoanions [Sₙ]˙⁻. The dianions can be isolated as crystalline salts with appropriate cations and structurally and spectroscopically characterized. Although the smaller radical monoanions may be stabilized in zeolitic matrices, they are usually formed in ...

Abstract:
... Catalytic transformations of syngas (a mixture of H₂ and CO), which is one of the most important C1-chemistry platforms, and CO₂, a greenhouse gas released from human industrial activities but also a candidate of abundant carbon feedstock, into chemicals and fuels have attracted much attention in recent years. Fischer–Tropsch (FT) synthesis is a classic route of syngas chemistry, but the product s ...
