Efficient electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide by metal-doped β₁₂-borophene monolayers

Abstract

These new TM–Bβ12 monolayers will display excellent catalytic performance for electroreduction of CO2. Primary reduction product of Sc is CO (overpotential 0.45 V). Primary product Ti–Zn is CH4, and Fe–Bβ12 has 0.45 V overpotential.

Isolated copper single sites for high-performance electroreduction of carbon monoxide to multicarbon products

“…As a comparison, Cu particles (10-50 nm) supported on Ti 3 C 2 T x (denoted as Cu-NP/Ti 3 C 2 T x ; Supplementary Figs. [26][27][28][29][30] were also prepared with a Cu loading of 5.2 wt%. Cu-NP/Ti 3 C 2 T x shows a very low current density of -16.2 mA cm −2 at -1.0 V vs RHE ( Fig.…”

“…Recently, the two-dimensional (2D) materials, as a powerful platform to support SA catalysts, have attracted great attention because of large specific surface areas, more exposed active sites, and superior catalytic activities [24][25][26][27][28][29][30] . Particularly, with excellent electronic conductivity, catalytically active basal planes, and graphene-like unique layered structures, 2D Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene (T x represents surface functional groups) has been investigated extensively for a variety of electrochemical reactions [31][32][33] .…”

Bimetallic Au–Pd alloy nanoparticles supported on MIL-101(Cr) as highly efficient catalysts for selective hydrogenation of 1,3-butadiene

“…1,2 In recent years, various catalysts, such as nanoparticle supported catalysts and single site catalysts, have been designed and used in diverse chemical reactions. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Palladium and gold supported nanoparticle catalysts have been intensively investigated and extensively used in the selective BD hydrogenation because of their superior catalytic activity and selectivity. [14][15][16][17] Previous studies on supported Pd-based nanoparticle catalysts have revealed that they have superior catalytic activity in the selective BD hydrogenation reaction.…”

A new class of organoplatinum-based DFNS for the production of cyclic carbonates from olefins and CO2

“…18,19 Due to their high specic surface area, reduced dimensionality and remarkable properties, two-dimensional (2D) nanosheets have become an ideal platform for the design of novel electrocatalysts for CO 2 reduction. [20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] Borophene is a novel 2D material under active investigation due to its fascinating and diverse properties and potential. 28 The properties of borophene can be enhanced and extended by alloying with other elements.…”
