The mechanisms of aqueous-phase thermal catalytic hydrogenation (TCH) and
electrocatalytic hydrogenation (ECH) of organic molecules over Pt group metals are not as …

The theoretical design of effective metal electrocatalysts for energy conversion and storage
devices relies greatly on supposed unilateral effects of catalysts structure on …

We investigated the electrocatalytic hydrogenation (ECH) of model aldehydes and ketones
