What Are the Challenges in Enhancing Ionic Conductivity?
Despite the potential benefits, there are several challenges in enhancing ionic conductivity:
Stability: Maintaining high ionic conductivity over long periods can be challenging due to material degradation. Compatibility: Ensuring the dopants or composite materials do not negatively affect other properties of the catalytic system. Cost: High-performance materials can be expensive, limiting their widespread application. Fabrication: Developing scalable and reproducible fabrication techniques for these materials remains a significant hurdle.
