Abstract Rechargeable Na‐CO 2 batteries are considered to be an effective way address the energy crisis and greenhouse effect due their dual functions of CO fixation/utilization storage. However, insolubility irreversibility solid discharge products lead poor capacity cycle performance. Herein, a novel strategy is proposed enhance electrochemical performance hybrid batteries, using water‐in‐salt electrolyte (WiSE) establish optimal reaction environment, regulate reduction pathway, ultimately convert product battery from Na 3 formic acid (HCOOH). This effectively resolves issue reversibility, allowing exhibit excellent (over 1200 cycles at 30 °C), especially under low‐temperature conditions (2534 −20 °C). Furthermore, density functional theory (DFT) calculations experiments indicate that by adjusting relative concentration H/O atoms electrolyte/catalyst interface, pathway in can regulated, thus enhancing capture capability consequently achieving ultra‐high specific 148.1 mAh cm −2 . work promotes practical application shall provide guidance for converting into with high‐value‐added chemicals.

Rechargeable lithium–carbon dioxide (Li-CO2) batteries have garnered global interest for their CO2 capture potential and exceptionally high energy density. However, the sluggish kinetics elevated charging induced by wide band gap insulator lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) underscore critical need to investigate cathode catalysts that can facilitate decomposition of Li2CO3 lower potential. Heteroatom doping plays an important role in regulating catalytic activity carbon-based metal-free catalysts. Herein, nitrogen/phosphorus/fluorine heteroatoms codoped carbon nanotubes (NPF-CNTs) are synthesized one step ammonium hexafluorophosphate (NH4PF6) assisted route. The three-dimensional interconnected structures free-standing NPF-CNT membrane fabricated a simple vacuum filtration, which provides abundant active sites facilitates charge transfer during electrochemical reaction. with cathodes achieve discharge area capacity (2.86 mAh cm–2) low overpotential excellent cycle performance (900 cycles at 100 μA cm–2, approaching 1800 h). good cycling stability 200 cm–2 is more prominent Li-CO2 batteries. These results demonstrate NPF-CNTs crucial enhancing reduction evolution reactions, thus significantly improving performance.

Abstract Sluggish kinetics of the CO 2 reduction/evolution reactions lead to accumulation Li 3 residuals and thus possible catalyst deactivation, which hinders long-term cycling stability Li-CO batteries. Apart from design, constructing a fluorinated solid-electrolyte interphase is conventional strategy minimize parasitic prolong cycle life. However, catalytic effects components have been overlooked remain unclear. Herein, we systematically regulate compositions via tuning electrolyte solvation structures, anion coordination, binding free energy between ion anion. The cells exhibit distinct improvement in performance with increasing content C-N species layers. enhancement originates effect towards accelerating formation/decomposition kinetics.

Abstract Electrocatalytic conversion of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into valuable carbon‐based fuels and chemicals represents a promising approach to closing the cycle setting circular economy. Nevertheless, for current electrocatalytic CO reduction reaction (ECO RR) systems, realizing 100% with simultaneously high overall rate (i.e., single‐pass conversion) Faradaic efficiency (FE) remains significant challenge. Enhancing often results in decrease FE, conversely, improving FE may limit rate.
