Rossi says that many elements beside nickel will work. The patent says that Copper will work also. The reason: it is the atomic holes that produce the reaction in a transition metal. It is these holes that are the active nuclear sites. The support is the oxide of that metal whatever it is. This oxide is a dielectric and provides support for the pure metal surface cover. The hydrogen generates the atomic holes by erosion at startup.
