But at Brookhaven, scientists have found a winner. Made of platinum and rhodium atoms on carbon-supported tin dioxide nanoparticles, the research team’s electrocatalyst is capable of breaking carbon bonds at room temperature and efficiently oxidizing ethanol into carbon dioxide as the main reaction product. Other catalysts, by comparison, produce acetalhyde and acetic acid
as the main products, which make them unsuitable fo

ハーバー・ボッシュ法とか、使い捨てカイロとか、光を当てると汚れが分解する壁とかの触媒はありふれた物質ですね。
