Description
Summary:Piezoelectric and triboelectric enhanced catalysis use mechanical stimuli to enhance the performance of catalysts in energy conversion and pollutant degradation. The electric field generated by piezoelectric materials can tune the charge migration behavior and redox kinetics of catalysts, leading to improved efficiency in energy conversion and pollutant degradation. Triboelectrification can also generate an electric field when two different materials come into contact, and this effect can be used to enhance catalytic reactions. Research in this area is still in its early stages, but it has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of energy conversion and pollutant degradation and provide a promising method for environmental remediation. This review accounts for recent advancements in piezoelectricity and triboelectricity enhanced catalysis, covering basic understandings, catalyst design, and performance insights. Finally, challenges and future opportunities for piezoelectricity and triboelectricity enhanced catalysis are discussed.
