Key factor for the anti-Arrhenius low-temperature heterogeneous catalysis induced by H migration: H coverage over support

Low-temperature heterogeneous catalytic reaction in an electric field is anticipated as a novel approach for on-demand and small-scale catalytic processes. This report quantitatively reveals the important role of proton coverage on the catalyst support for catalytic ammonia synthesis in an electric field, which shows an anti-Arrhenius behaviour.
