Researchers from Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences made breakthrough in research on material structure and CO oxidation through collaboration with Sunrise Power Group. The new concept, interface-confined effect, gave people a picture of strong adhesion between ferrous oxides and metal substrates, playing a guiding role in creating the new nano catalytic system.

The report was published on Science, May 28. It was the first report in the world on the application of CO removal in relation to fuel cells. The breakthrough was highly valued by C&E News of the US and Chemistry World of the UK as a successful example of catalysis research from modeling to theoretical analysis and to application.
