A computational study of anode electrocatalysis in direct ethanol fuel cells

Density Functional Theory calculations are employed in the investigation of the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) at the anode of Direct Ethanol Fuel Cells (DEFC), with a view to mechanistic understanding of the reaction pathways, determination of the factors governing the onset potential of activity...
