Something’s off.A research report says a manganese-oxide catalyst used for water electrolysis lasted longest near 0°C—just before the water froze. Cooling slowed oxygen production, but reportedly slowed the catalyst’s degradation even more.
The reported pattern reversed below freezing in supercooled liquid water: the catalyst’s manganese dissolution accelerated as the temperature dropped, and its lifetime became shorter again. The report links this unusual low-temperature behavior to changes in supercooled water.
