Cu-catalyzed electrochemical CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to multi-carbon (C2+) products is often plagued by low selectivity because the adsorption energies of different intermediates are in a linear scaling relationship. Development Cu-based bimetallic catalysts has been considered as an attractive strategy address this issue; however, conventional avoid metals with strong CO prevent surface poisoning. Herein, we demonstrated that limiting amount Co CuCo can enhance C2+ product...

Owing to their high catalytic efficiency and selectivity, the ordered intermetallic Pd-based nanocatalysts have greater promise than disordered for formic acid oxidation reactions (FAOR). Traditionally, nanoparticles are synthesized via annealing of alloy in a temperature reducing atmosphere. However, this method inevitably adds complexity increases cost practical application as well leads destruction nanostructures deactivation nanocatalysts. Herein, monodisperse PdCu obtained through...
