Application:	Fe, N, S co-doped carbon network derived from acetate-modified Fe-ZIF-8 for oxygen reduction reaction.: This study explores the role of potassium acetate in modifying iron-based metal-organic frameworks to create efficient catalysts for oxygen reduction reactions, vital for energy conversion technologies. This approach highlights a sustainable pathway to enhance the electrochemical properties of catalysts used in fuel cells and metal-air batteries (Zhang J et al., 2024 ). Safe cycling in winter: Results of a case study on the role of de-icing in the city of Hamburg, Germany.: Research on potassium acetate as a de-icing agent demonstrates its effectiveness and environmental safety, particularly in urban settings where traditional salts pose corrosion risks to infrastructure and are harmful to the environment. The study provides a basis for municipal decisions on winter road safety protocols (Lißner S et al., 2023 ). Systematic Study on the Precursor Reduction Kinetics and Growth Pattern for Size-Tunable Palladium Nanocubes.: Utilizing potassium acetate in the controlled synthesis of palladium nanocubes, this research contributes to the understanding of nanoparticle growth mechanisms, enabling the precise tuning of their size for applications in catalysis and electronics (Zhao Y et al., 2023 ). Quasi-alternating copolymerization of oxiranes driven by a benign acetate-based catalyst.: Potassium acetate is used in this innovative approach to polymer synthesis, demonstrating its utility as a green catalyst that promotes sustainable chemical processes. The research offers new insights into the development of environmentally friendly polymerization methods (Fornaciari C et al., 2023 ). Deamination of Polyols from the Glycolysis of Polyurethane.: This study investigates the role of potassium acetate in the recycling process of polyurethanes, contributing to sustainable waste management practices. By optimizing the chemical breakdown and recovery of valuable components, the research aids in reducing environmental impact (Donadini R et al., 2024 ).
