Web of Science TM Core Collection 3

Graphene-metal nanocomposite as electrocatalysts for energy conversion reactions Let’s try Web of Science

1. Identify the keywords in your topic 2. Find the synonyms of the keyword 3. Look for different variations of the keyword e.g. Electrocataly* Go to Web of Science Graphene-metal nanocomposite as electrocatalysts for energy conversion reactions Nanocomposite, nanoparticle electrocatalysis, electrocatalysts, electrocatalyst, electrocatalytic Electro* Electrolyte Electronics X

4. Use Boolean operators 5. Construct the search statement Go to Web of Science (Graphene* AND metal* AND (nanocomposite* OR nanoparticle*) AND electrocataly*) AND – Use to find records containing all terms separated by the operator OR - Use to find records containing any of the terms separated by the operator
