New bimetallic copper-titanium hydrogen evolution catalyst outperforms platinum by more than 2x

Green Car Congress

HER in an acidic environment generally requires lower overpotentials than those in a basic environment. An important area of future studies is to determine the surface valence state using in situ/operando surface-sensitive techniques. The two Cu-Cu-Ti hollow sites exhibit HBE values close to that of Pt. Click to enlarge.
