Sabatier volcano: log(j₀) peaks at ΔG_bind ≈ 0

Layer 2 — Chemistryin the electrocatalysis subtree

Sabatier principle (Sabatier 1911) — catalysts bind intermediates 'just right': too weakly and activation of the bond is insufficient; too strongly and the surface becomes poisoned by the product. Plotted as log(j_0) vs the binding free…
