source:TOHOKU UNIVERSITYThe unsung heroes of electrochemical reactions - electrocatalysts - can assist in optimizing factors such as the reaction's speed, yield, and energy consumption. As such, these electrocatalysts are crucial for optimizing large-scale production in pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and petrochemical industries. Researchers at Tohoku University and Nanjing Normal University conducted a deep dive on the performance of an emerging category of electrocatalysts: cobalt oxides (henceforth referred to as Co X-ides).The research team sought to use Co X-ides for the electrocatalyt...
