Abstract

Seawater Electrolysis Seawater electrolysis can be advanced through screening of cathode materials. Oxophilic vanadium dopants embedded in a nickel host act as anchors that facilitate the water dissociation step in the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction. In their Research Article (10.1002/adfm.202516387) Jeong Woo Han and co-workers also explore how oxophilic dopants influence competitive chloride adsorption and metal hydroxide precipitation, offering insights into catalyst durability and performance under seawater conditions.
