Dependence of the oxygen reduction reaction at sol–gel derived Co-based catalysts on acidic solution pH and temperature

“…Reaction (5) is now the rds, instead of reaction (6). This is followed by a different series of reaction steps (10,10a), giving a possible reaction scheme generating H 2 …”

“…Two general approaches to lowering catalyst cost are currently being actively pursued. The first involves lowering the Pt loading by using techniques such as sputter-deposition [1], employing higher surface area carbons to better distribute and hence utilize the Pt nanoparticles [2] and by alloying Pt with other transition metals (e.g., Ni, Co, Fe, Cu). This latter approach includes the design and application of coreshell particles, which can lower cost and often further enhance the ORR activity [3][4][5].…”

Design of functional nano-structured materials through the use of controlled hybrid organic–inorganic interfaces

“…So far, such nano-structuring approach has been well developed for pure or mixed metal oxide inorganic networks [6] such as SiO 2 [66,67], Al 2 O 3 [68], or transition-metal oxides [69,70,71], but will with no doubt be extended in the future to non-oxide materials such as metals or polymers [71a]. Already, pure platinum [72,73] and carbon graphite [74] meso-networks were prepared by an indirect nanocasting technique that involves impregnation of the porous network with salt or polymers, solidification through reduction or calcination respectively, and dissolution of the primary network.…”

“…The careful control of these chemical and processing parameters allow us to synthesize reproducibly many periodically organised mesopropous inorganic films, membranes and powders not only with silica [74] but also with TiO 2 [39][40][41][42]87,88], ZrO 2 [89], VO 2-…”

Molecular modelling of ionic liquids in the ordered mesoporous carbon CMK-5

“…In addition, the ordered mesoporous carbons CMK-3 and CMK-5 have been used as electrodes in EDLCs in previous experimental studies. [34][35][36][37][38][39][40] We also studied the properties of the same ILs inside an isolated ACNP (i.e. no IL adsorbed on the outer surface of the ACNP, see Figure 2(d)).…”
