Now, Kanan and Nocera 2 have produced an oxygen-evolving catalyst from earth-abundant materials, using a very simple synthetic process. The catalyst also operates in water under ambient conditions.
Fe-N-C catalysts are potential substitutes to displace electrocatalysts containing noble chemical elements in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, their application is hampered by ...
Fuel cells and metal-air batteries are considered the future of clean energy technology, but they rely on one critical reaction—the oxygen reduction ...
Hydrogen peroxide decomposes on its own into water and oxygen gas. This process is sped up by a catalyst. In this reaction, the catalyst is potassium permanganate, and the bubbles are full of oxygen ...
Enzymes are catalysts that work inside the cells of living organisms. This flask contains hydrogen peroxide. It’s a compound that breaks down into water and oxygen gas naturally when it is at ...
