Constructing Cu/Cu2O Heterogeneous Interface for Efficient Urea Electrosynthesis

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
In this study, a Cu/Cu2O heterogeneous interface with dual active sites is prepared for electrocatalytic CO2 and NO3−$$ {\mathrm{NO}}_3^{-} $$ coupling to urea. The catalyst shows high yield rates of 1156.63 mmol g−1 h−1 and FE of 29.67% at −1.0 V (vs RHE), which is significantly higher than Cu and Cu2O, highlighting the advantages of heterogeneous ...
