La0.80Sr0.20CoO3 as a noble-metal-free catalyst for the direct oxidation of formic acid under zero applied potential

Direct oxidation of formic acid to CO2 using noble-metal-free La0.80Sr0.20CoO3 is demonstrated in this study. The catalyst was able to oxidize HCOOH without any externally applied potential. The activity of La0.80Sr0.20CoO3 is compared with that of Pt nanoparticles. It is observed that the amount of...
