Interfacial water structure regulates the stability of carbon electrodes. When interfacial water molecules form an ordered, strongly hydrogen-bonded network, the carbon surface remains stable (left). When the network is disrupted, carbon corrosion (oxidation of carbon to CO2) is accelerated (right).
