Electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is an attractive strategy for sustainable production of chemicals and has mainly been implemented in alkaline or neutral electrolytes. However, part input consumed by the formation carbonate under these conditions. Herein, a space-confined proposed CO2RR acidic media, Ni nanoparticles are encapsulated inside N-doped carbon nanocages as yolk-shell nanoreactors. By confining cavities nanoreactors, Faradaic efficiency (FE) 93.2% CO achieved at pH...

Nickel–cobalt double hydroxide microspheres (Ni–Co-DHM) have been synthesized by a facile and cost-effective in situ method. The obtained Ni–Co-DHM displays three-dimensional architecture with hollow interior hedgehog-like exterior structures. unique greatly improves the faradaic redox reaction mass transfer. electrode offers an excellent pseudocapacitance performance, including high specific capacitance rate capability, good charge–discharge stability long-term cycling life. Its maximum was...

Alkaline water electrolysis is one of the most promising technologies for green hydrogen production. Here, we synthesized a series alkanolamine-modified zirconia particles by one-pot method to construct zirconia-based composite membranes alkaline electrolysis. Among these membranes, diethanolamine (DEA)-functionalized separator exhibits superior hydrophilicity with low contact angle 44° and area resistance 0.12 Ω·cm2, which were 47 60%, respectively, less than that commercial Zirfon PERL UTP...

Direct electrochemical CO2 reduction to formic acid (FA) instead of formate is a challenging task due the high acidity FA and competitive hydrogen evolution reaction. Herein, 3D porous electrode (TDPE) prepared by simple phase inversion method, which can electrochemically reduce in acidic conditions. Owing interconnected channels, porosity, appropriate wettability, TDPE not only improves mass transport, but also realizes pH gradient build higher local micro-environment under conditions for...

Abstract Electrochemical carbon capture and utilization (eCCU) from flue gas CO 2 could avoid high energy consumption capital input in conventional capture, storage, utilization, which is a promising approach for achieving negative emissions producing “e‐chemicals.” However, low concentration leftover O the presumably lowers eCCU performance. Herein, redox‐active 2‐amino‐5‐mercapto‐1,3,4‐thiadiazole (AMT) functionalized gold nanoparticles are synthesized to achieve integrated electrochemical...

Electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 is an effective way to solve environmental issues. In this article, we report inexpensive, readily available zinc oxide catalyst (TEA-ZnO) functionalized using alkanolamine, which highly active and selective for the generate CO at elevated temperatures. Triethanolamine-modified shows ca. 88.8% Faradaic efficiency −0.84 V vs RHE. The amine groups triethanolamine could increase adsorption capacity CO2, expose more CO2-specific sites, mitigate high-temperature...

Amine-functionalized defective metal-organic frameworks (DM) showed promise for direct air capture (DAC) of CO2 under ambient conditions. In this work, chromium-based DM was functionalized via a two-step postsynthetic modification with ethylenediamine (EDA), tris(2-aminoethyl)amine (TAEA), and polyethylene-polyamines (PEPA). Characterization by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray photoelectron (XPS), powder diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) confirmed...

We report a free template strategy for the fabrication of nickel/cobalt double hydroxide microspheres (Ni/Co-DHMs) in tertbutanol–water (TBA–H2O) medium. This study demonstrates that nanostructure and morphology Ni/Co-DHMs can be easily tuned by altering ratio TBA/H2O. When reaction is performed solvent mixture with low water content, as-synthesized form as pure nanoflakes good hydrotalcite structure, but increasing leads first to nanorods, then it further gives rise α-Co(OH)2 α-Ni(OH)2...
