The Calicat CDE is a data-driven screening process that allows scientists to rapidly make, characterize, and quantify the catalytic activity of material compositions and then close the loop with big data analysis and artificial intelligence. This flyer provides an...
Role of Long-Duration Energy Storage in Variable Renewable Electricity Systems
The introduction of LDS lowers total system costs relative to wind-solar-battery systems, and system costs are twice as sensitive to reductions in LDS costs as to reductions in battery costs. In least-cost systems, batteries are used primarily for intra-day...
Crystalline nickel, cobalt, and manganese antimonates as electrocatalysts for the chlorine
This article describes the use of low-cost, earth-abundant catalysts for chlorine production under conditions typically used commercially in the chlor-alkali process. Studies of the bulk and surface of the electrocatalyst indicate minimal changes in structure and...
Rutile alloys in the Mn-Sb-O system
This article describes the discovery using high throughput experimentation of a family of active water oxidation catalysts based on the manganese antimony oxides. The rutile oxides have the same or better thermodynamic operational stability as iridium oxide under...
Crystalline nickel manganese antimonate as a stable water-oxidation catalyst in aqueous
This article reports the performance of a low-cost, earth-abundant, water oxidation catalyst based on an oxide of nickel, manganese and antimony. The catalyst is stable and active under such conditions and is characterized spectroscopically. Read More
