i would not ask the secrets of a good friend. But about his performances yes! And therefore I knew that Ni-H works, therefore Rossi's E-Cat is real and..works.
Catalitically active oxides work at the interface with the real catalyst in heterogeneous catalysis. Do you say NiO is not reduced to Ni and water in the conditions of the E-cat? My guess is that Rossi has a very good method of activation of Ni , this can-as I already said comprise an additive. But this additive is a promoter, not the catalyst per se. Despite the fact that I was one of the first to say that cold fusion is similar to catalysis and has to learn from catalysis- http://www.lenr-canr.org/acrobat/GluckPunderstand.pdf I don't think that Rossi has a non-nickel catalyst. Catalysing what? For the time given showing that you are original and different, even more than you really are. Vederemo!
