氧还原反应(ORR)被大量应用于燃料电池和空气电池等系统中。目前，对ORR过电位最低的催化剂是漆酶。漆酶只能在非常窄的pH范围内发挥作用，而且它的大尺寸防止了高电流密度。使用铜基催化剂来模拟ORR活性是一个有很多光谱结果的领域，但相对较少的电化学研究。本文综述了各种铜基ORR催化剂及其活性。
The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is employed in a large number of systems such as fuel cells and air batteries. Currently, the catalyst with the lowest overpotential for the ORR is the enzyme laccase. Laccase only functions at a very narrow pH range, and its large size prevents high current densities. Using copper based catalysts to mimic the ORR activity is an area with many spectroscopic results, but relatively few electrochemical studies. This review catalogs the various copper based ORR catalysts and their activities.
