New ways to fine tune electrochemistry - EurekAlert
<p>Optimizing electrochemical reactions is essential for the transition to renewable energies. In electrochemical reactions, electric currents and potential differences are used to binding and induce reactions. Electrochemistry is a pre-requisite for hydrogen production, and for batterie technology, and thus for sustainable chemistry. Although there has been a lot of technological development in this area in recent years, there is still room for improvement and a long way towards large scale industrial applications. Scientists from the Cluster of Excellence RESOLV at the Ruhr University Bochum and École normale supérieure in Paris discovered two new aspects to control and thus optimize electrochemical reactions at electrified interfaces. They describe their results in the journal Journal of the American Chemical Society published online on April, 10, 2024. The article has been chosen by the journal to be featured on the front cover.</p>
