[EN] The formic acid oxidation reaction has been studied in concentrated perchloric acid solutions (up to 9.14M (60%)) on the Pt (111) surface to explore the relationships between interfacial properties and kinetics. It ...
[EN] The performance of many advanced catalytic systems depends not only on the size and composition but also on the specific shape of the metal nanoparticles (NPs) from which they are assembled. In turn, the shape of ...
[EN] Untangling the mechanism of the methanol electro-oxidation on platinum in water as a model reaction is essential to optimize fuel cells using alcohols as fuel. Recent experiments unexpectedly suggested that this ...
