What are the Challenges in Electrochemical Studies?
Despite their importance, electrochemical studies face several challenges:
1. Complexity of Real-World Systems: Electrochemical environments can be highly complex, with multiple interacting species and phases, making it difficult to isolate and study individual catalytic processes. 2. Material Stability: Catalysts can degrade under electrochemical conditions, complicating the interpretation of data and the development of durable materials. 3. Measurement Sensitivity: Electrochemical measurements often require high sensitivity and precision, as small changes in current or voltage can significantly impact the interpretation of catalytic activity.
