Abstract

CO 2 electrolysis is a key step in CO 2 conversion into fuels and chemicals as a way of mitigating climate change. We report the synthesis and testing of a series of new anion‐conductive membranes (tradenamed Sustainion™) for use in CO 2 electrolysis. These membranes incorporate the functional character of imidazolium‐based ionic liquids as co‐catalysts in CO 2 reduction into a solid membrane with a styrene backbone. We find that the addition of an imidazolium group onto the styrene side‐chains increases the selectivity of the reaction from approximately 25 % to approximately 95 %. The current at 3 V is increased by a factor of 14. So far we have been able to tune these parameters to achieve stable cells that provide current densities higher than 100 mA cm−2 at 3 V cell potential with a CO product selectivity over 98 %. Stable performance was observed for 6 months of continuous operation (>150 000 000 turnovers). These results demonstrate that imidazolium polymers are ideal membranes for CO 2 electrolysis.

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.
