Boosting Battery Performance with a Smart Catalyst Mix

December 20, 2025

Researchers have found a way to make rechargeable zinc-air batteries last longer and work better. They did this by mixing a special catalyst with a smart helper called CeO2. The catalyst, made of iron and cobalt atoms, is good at helping oxygen reactions. But it has problems. It wears out too fast a

Unlocking the Power of Metallocenes in Water

March 1, 2025

Imagine trying to measure something super tiny in a messy environment. That's what scientists face when they try to study electrochemical processes in non-ideal media. Usually, they use a normal hydrogen electrode (NHE) as a reference. But in messy, non-ideal conditions, things get tricky. That's wh

Pool Water Pollution: Solving The Chlorine Problem

February 5, 2025

Imagine swimming in a pool where the chlorine levels are perfect. That's what scientists are aiming for with a new sensor. This isn't your average sensor. It's a cleverly designed electrode. It has a secret weapon: Fe 3 O 4 Cu-BTC composite. This is mixed with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWC

Breakthroughs in Water Purification: A New MOF and MXene Combination

January 30, 2025

MXenes, a unique type of two-dimensional lamellar material, have gained a lot of attention lately. However, they have a tendency to collapse and stack due to hydrogen bonding and interlayer van der Waals forces, which hurts their performance in electrochemical processes and capacitive deionization.

The Power of Electrochemistry: Cleaning Up Seas

December 18, 2024

Scientists have been exploring a new way to fight climate change by removing carbon from the oceans using electrochemical systems. These systems use a process called alkalinity-swings to get rid of dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). This can be done in two ways: by releasing carbon dioxide gas or by
