Design of Electrocatalysts in Molten Salts: from Synthesis Mechanisms to Reactivity during Electrocatalysis

Key Points

• Reactivity during electrocatalysis is significantly influenced by the underlying synthesis mechanisms.
• Key evidence includes findings that show varying reactivity levels of electrocatalysts in molten salts during testing.
• Analysis focuses on the catalytic performance of materials synthesized under specific conditions, leading to enhanced reactivity.
• Understanding these mechanisms may enable the development of more efficient electrocatalysts in the future.
