Abstract

In this study, we prepared nitrogen-removed mesoporous carbon (NRMC) catalysts by applying various heat treatments to nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon (NMC), which were applied as novel electrocatalysts for CO 2 reduction reaction (CO 2 RR). With the nitrogen moieties being progressively removed, the NRMC catalysts exhibited enhanced CO generation from CO 2 RR, whereas the competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) has been suppressed. Through suitable annealing treatment, the defect-rich NRMC catalyst is able to convert CO 2 to CO with a Faradaic efficiency (FE CO ) of ∼80% and a partial current density for CO ( j CO ) of −2.9 mA cm –2 at an applied overpotential of 490 mV. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations further revealed the active sites within NRMC catalysts were the defects generated by N removal, which lowered the energy barriers for CO 2 RR and will not be passivated by hydrogen. These findings provide design guidelines to develop efficient carbon-based catalysts that can display metal-like, and even better, performances for potential scalable CO 2 RR to fuels and chemicals.

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.
