Study shows a much cheaper catalyst can generate hydrogen in a commercial electrolyzer

Green Car Congress

Researchers at the Department of Energy’s SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University have shown for the first time that a low-cost, non-precious metal cobalt phosphide (CoP) catalyst catalyst can split water and generate hydrogen gas for hours on end in the harsh environment of a commercial device.

A) SEM image of the CNT membrane surface, showing CNT tips emerging from the polymer. The difficulty and high cost of making CNT membranes has confined them to university laboratories and has been frequently cited as the limiting factor in their widespread use. Images of the membranes tested in the study. (A)
