SWP2.5: Bubble formation

Coordinator(s)
Objectives
  • Detailed insight and “design rules” in the nanoscale chemical and physical parameters that control bubble formation, bubble coalescence, and bubble release for a variety of relevant reactions.
  • Development of protocols to minimize the deleterious effects of bubble evolution.
Hypothesis

Tuning of electrode nanostructure in combination with electrolyte properties can optimize the current density of gas forming electrodes beyond purely catalytic activity.

Aim: Elucidation, understanding and control of electrochemical bubble formation in nanostructured electrodes
