Gas-diffusion electrocrystallization
 | This article may be too technical for most readers to understand. (October 2020) |
Gas-diffusion electrocrystallization (GDEx) is an electrochemical process consisting on the reactive precipitation of metal ions in solution (or dispersion) with intermediaries issued from the electrochemical reduction of gases, at gas-diffusion electrodes.[1][2][3] It can serve for the recovery of metals or metalloids into solid precipitates[4] or for the synthesis of libraries of nanoparticles.[1]
