New class of catalysts for energy conversion: complex solid solution (CSS) nanoparticles

Green Car Congress

Complex solid solution (CSS) nanoparticles [also referred to as high-entropy alloys (HEA)] were recently discovered as efficient electrocatalysts for a variety of reactions. The complexity of the alloy is reflected in the research results, and many analyses will be necessary before one can assess its actual potential.
