Figure 5: Proposed reaction mechanism, LSV and gas analysis.
From: The water catalysis at oxygen cathodes of lithium–oxygen cells
(a) (i) is a spontaneous process; (ii) is promoted over MnO2 nanoparticles in Ru/MnO2/SP; and oxidation of LiOH in (iii) occurs at low charge overpotentials over Ru nanoparticles. (b) Linear scanning voltammetry (LSV) curves of the Ru/SP electrodes with and without LiOH under Ar atmosphere. (c) Gas chromatography (GC) analysis on the gas evolved in a charging process.
