New paper in @chemicalscience.rsc.org Zixuan Ma, who is not related to me, has looked into the hidden world of electrocatalytic methanol oxidation on NiOOH by spectroelectrochemistry. It turns out we can't push NiOOH too far and we also can't do it with too much water. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Unraveling The Hidden Conditions in NiOOH for Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Methanol to Formaldehyde with Unity Faraday Efficiency and Selectivity
Nickel oxyhydroxide (NiOOH) has been widely applied in electrocatalytic water splitting. Limited by the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction, the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol h...
