Abstract

Abstract Renewable energy-driven ammonia electrosynthesis by N2 reduction reaction (NRR) at ambient conditions is vital for sustainability of both the global population and energy demand. However, NRR under ambient conditions to date has been plagued with a low yield rate and selectivity (<10%) due to the more favorable hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in aqueous media. Herein, surface area enhanced α-Fe nanorods grown on carbon fiber paper were used as NRR cathodes in an aprotic fluorinated solvent–ionic liquid mixture. Through this design, significantly enhanced NRR activity with an NH3 yield rate of ∼2.35 × 10–11 mol s–1 cmGSA–2, (3.71 × 10–13 mol s–1 cmECSA–2) and selectivity of ∼32% has been achieved under ambient conditions. This study reveals that the use of hydrophobic fluorinated aprotic electrolyte effectively limits the availability of protons and thus suppresses the competing HER. Therefore, electrode–electrolyte engineering is essential in advancing the NH3 electrosynthesis technology.

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.
