Electrochemical Ammonia Synthesis via Nitrogen Reduction Reaction on a MoS2 Catalyst: Theoretical and Experimental Studies
Abstract
The discovery of stable and noble‐metal‐free catalysts toward efficient electrochemical reduction of nitrogen (N 2) to ammonia (NH 3) is highly desired and significantly critical for the earth nitrogen cycle. Here, based on the theoretical predictions, MoS 2 is first utilized to catalyze the N 2 reduction reaction (NRR) under room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Electrochemical tests reveal that such catalyst achieves a high Faradaic efficiency (1.17%) and NH 3 yield (8.08 × 10−11 mol s−1 cm−1) at −0.5 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode in 0.1 m Na 2 SO 4. Even in acidic conditions, where strong hydrogen evolution reaction occurs, MoS 2 is still active for the NRR. This work represents an important addition to the growing family of transition‐metal‐based catalysts with advanced performance in NRR.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
