Discover the Evolution: A Comprehensive Review of Transition and Rare Earth Metals for Oxygen Reduction Reaction, from Mono to High‐Entropy Catalysts

The Chemical Record, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: April 10, 2025

Abstract Green energy, including metal‐air batteries and fuel cells, is the key solution to climate change. The efficiency of these energy technologies depends on oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at cathode, which a slow process requiring expensive noble metal catalysts, like platinum, for improvement. high cost this catalyst restricts its widespread use in producing cells. An alternative approach utilize non‐noble metals, such as transition rare earth are more cost‐effective demonstrate comparable durability effectiveness metals. With their affordability distinct electronic structure, metals have potential revolutionize industry. Transition can enhance ORR catalysts by manipulating surface molecular makeup through ′doping′ ′synergistic effects′. This article discusses roles various process, covering fundamental advanced levels, well progression from mono high‐entropy systems (systems with increasing complexity improved performance), bi‐, tri‐, tetra‐metallic comprehensive manner, emphasizes opportunities researchers propose innovative strategies optimizing process.
