Abstract

The Cover Feature illustrates that asphaltene, an oil sands by-product typically used for road making, can be used as a conductive substrate for effective Mn−Co based bifunctional electrocatalysts in zinc-air batteries. A by-product, commonly associated with the negative environmental impact of fossil fuels, has been repurposed as part of the solution to our dependence on these fuels. More information can be found in the Research Article by D. G. Ivey and co-workers.
