Until now, metal - organic frameworks were considered poor conductors and not very useful
for electrochemical reactions.
Currently, the most efficient catalysts
for the electrochemical reaction that generates hydrogen from water are based on platinum, which is scarce and expensive.
Not exact matches
For example, when the battery is recharged, the overall
electrochemical reduction
reaction at the negative electrode is identical to the
electrochemical oxidation
reaction that proceeded at the negative electrode when the battery was discharged, only written in reverse.
«An added requirement
for a well - behaved (that is, long - lived) rechargeable battery is that not only must the
electrochemical oxidation - reduction
reactions be reversible, they must also return the electrode materials to their original physical state.
These results provide the foundation
for our team at JCAP to screen, characterize, and deploy new catalysts
for the most challenging
electrochemical reactions.
Using the liquid SIMS technique and the newly patented
electrochemical System
for Analysis at the Liquid Vacuum Interface (SALVI), the researchers discovered transient species and
reaction pathways in the solid - liquid interface.

The PFM method uses a diffuse - interface description to describe the dynamics of the
reaction front in response to a local
electrochemical driving force, and is a powerful approach
for modeling microstructure evolution as well as corrosion processes.
