Boron Nanosheet-Supported Rh Catalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER)
April 27, 2021 Researchers designed an outstanding HER electrocatalyst, highly dispersed rhodium (Rh) nanoparticles with an average diameter of only 3 nm supported on boron (B) nanosheets. The HER catalytic activity is even comparable to that of commercial platinum catalysts.
Enhanced Water Electrolysis Activity at High Current Density
November 25, 2020 Researchers prepared an N-doped graphene-decorated NiCo alloy coupled with mesoporous NiCoMoO nano-sheet grown on 3D nickel foam (NiCo@C-NiCoMoO/NF) for water splitting.
Ruthenium-Based Electrocatalysts for Effective Hydrogen Evolution Reaction
April 27, 2021 Researchers summarized four main strategies for improving the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance of Ru-based catalysts.
Low-cost Electrocatalyst for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER)
August 13, 2021 Using first-principles calculations, researchers designed a defect and N-, S-, P-doped penta-graphene (PG) as a two-dimensional (2D) electrocatalyst for HER. Its stability, electronic properties and catalytic performance were investigated.
COP 26
October 12, 2021 In just a few days the nations of the world will once again meet to discuss climate change. The meeting will likely set the stage for action –or lack thereof- that will make or break our collective effort to halt the dumping of greenhouse gases in the … Continue reading
