Abstract:Electrochemical hydrogeneration (ECH) of biomass-derived platform molecules, which avoids the disadvantages in utilizing fossil fuel and gaseous hydrogen, is a promising route toward value-added chemicals production. Herein, we reported a CoO/Co heterostructure-supported Pt single atoms electrocatalyst (Pt 1 -CoO/Co) that exhibited an outstanding performance with a high conversion (>99%), a high Faradaic efficiency (87.6%), and robust stability (24 recyclability) at −20 mA/cm 2 for electrochemical phenol hydro… Show more
Developing acid-stable oxygen evolution/reduction reaction (OER/ORR) electrocatalysts is essential for high-performance water splitting. Still, the slow kinetics of the ORR and OER during the discharge and charge processes seriously impede...
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
