Potential-induced nanoclustering of metallic catalysts during electrochemical CO2 reduction

Potential-induced nanoclustering of metallic catalysts during electrochemical CO2 reduction

While the degradation of materials during usage is crucial in understanding their performance, it is challenging to understand the corrosion processes. Here, authors find copper nanoparticles to undergo an unusual potential-driven nanoclustering degradation pathway during carbon dioxide reduction.
