New Durable Nonprecious Metal Hydrogen Production Electrode

February 13, 2024 | Leave a Comment

University of Tsukuba researchers have developed highly durable electrodes without precious metals to enable direct hydrogen production from seawater. Water electrolysis utilizing renewable energy sources is emerging as a promising clean method for hydrogen production. But the water electrolysis method, a promising avenue for hydrogen production, relies on substantial freshwater consumption, thereby limiting the regions […]

Gold Alloyed With Nickel Studied For Hydrogen Production

August 23, 2023 | Leave a Comment

Chiba University researchers show the hydrogen evolution reaction activity of a GoldNickel/Gold electrocatalyst increases due to surface defects formed via Nickel dealloying. Gold (Au)-based electrocatalysts used for hydrogen production via water electrolysis exhibit high chemical stability but low hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity. Alloying them with nickel (Ni) can improve their HER activity. Now, a […]

Nickel Cobalt Nitrogen Doped Carbon Hydrogen Electrolysis

December 28, 2021 | Leave a Comment

A nickel-cobalt metal dimer on nitrogen-doped carbon can catalyze electrolysis under both acidic and basic conditions. Green hydrogen generated from the electrolysis of water using renewable electricity is considered a next-generation renewable energy source for the future. But in reality, the overwhelming majority of hydrogen fuel is obtained from the refining of fossils fuels due […]

Now There is a Super Catalyst With 14 Active Elements

October 21, 2021 | Leave a Comment

A research group in Japan has successfully developed a “nanoporous super multi-element catalyst” (1) that contains 14 elements (2) which are mixed uniformly at the atomic level and used as a catalyst. The new catalyst was found to show excellent properties as an electrode material for water electrolysis due to the multi-element superposition effect (cocktail […]
