“…To improve the CO 2 reduction performance, substantial efforts have been put into exploring strategies from various perspectives, such as catalyst composition and structure, [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] local microenvironment, [8,[20][21][22] and electrodes. [23][24][25] Recently, hydrophobicity has attracted intense attention for its significant promoting effects in various fields, such as batteries, [26,27] separation, [28,29] and catalysis. [4,8,21,25,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37][38][39][40] For electrochemical CO 2 reduction in aqueous media, the introduction of hydrophobicity can create gas-liquid-solid triple-phase interfaces (TPI) near the catalysts, which increases the local concentration of CO 2 and reduces the accessibility of water to the catalysts, [4,8,21,33] thus improving the selectivity towards carbon-based products.…”
