Electric fields flip the rules of water chemistry
nside electrochemical devices, strong electric fields dramatically alter how water molecules behave. New research shows that these fields speed up water dissociation not by lowering energy costs, but by increasing molecular disorder once ions form.

The findings also reveal that intense fields can push water from neutral to highly acidic, with major implications for hydrogen production.
