Abstract In recent years, dual‐atom catalysts (DACs) have attracted extensive attention, as an extension of single‐atom (SACs). Compared with SACs, DACs higher metal loading and more complex flexible active sites, thus achieving better catalytic performance providing opportunities for electrocatalysis. This review introduces the research progress in years on how to design new enhance Firstly, advantages increasing are introduced. Then, role changing adsorption condition reactant molecules atoms is discussed. Moreover, ways which can reduce reaction energy barrier key steps change path explored. Catalytic applications different electrocatalytic reactions, including carbon dioxide reduction reaction, oxygen evolution hydrogen nitrogen followed. Finally, a brief summary made challenges prospects

A Tandem Strategy for Enhancing Electrochemical CO₂ Reduction Activity of Single‐Atom Cu‐S₁N₃ Catalysts via Integration with Cu Nanoclusters

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 60(45), С. 24022 - 24027

Опубликована: Сен. 9, 2021

We developed a tandem electrocatalyst for CO2 -to-CO conversion comprising the single Cu site co-coordinated with N and S anchored carbon matrix (Cu-S1 N3 ) atomically dispersed clusters (Cux ), denoted as Cu-S1 /Cux . The as-prepared composite presents 100 % Faradaic efficiency towards CO generation (FECO at -0.65 V vs. RHE high FECO over 90 from -0.55 to -0.75 V, outperforming analogues Cu-N4 only 54 -0.7 V) 70 configurations. unsymmetrical atomic interface in basal plane possesses an optimized binding energy key intermediate *COOH compared site. At same time, adjacent Cux effectively promotes protonation of *CO2- by accelerating water dissociation offering *H active sites. This work provides strategy facilitating proton-coupled electron transfer atomic-level catalytic

Stabilizing Fe–N–C Catalysts as Model for Oxygen Reduction Reaction

Advanced Science, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 8(23)

Опубликована: Окт. 23, 2021

Abstract The highly efficient energy conversion of the polymer‐electrolyte‐membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is extremely limited by sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics and poor electrochemical stability catalysts. Hitherto, to replace costly Pt‐based catalysts, non‐noble‐metal ORR catalysts are developed, among which transition metal–heteroatoms–carbon (TM–H–C) materials present great potential for industrial applications due their outstanding catalytic activity low expense. However, during testing in a two‐electrode system high complexity have become big barrier commercial applications. Thus, herein, simplify research, typical Fe–N–C material with relatively simple constitution structure, selected as model catalyst TM–H–C explore improve such kind Then, different types active sites (centers) coordination systematically summarized discussed, possible attenuation mechanism strategies analyzed. Finally, some challenges faced prospects proposed shed light on future development trend advanced catalysis.

Advanced Energy Materials, Год журнала: 2021, Номер 11(37)

Опубликована: Авг. 26, 2021

Abstract Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are a highly efficient hydrogen energy conversion technology, which shows great potential in mitigating carbon emissions and the crisis. Currently, to accelerate kinetics of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) required for PEMFCs, extensive utilization expensive rare platinum‐based catalysts at cathodic side, impeding their large‐scale commercialization. In response this issue, atomically dispersed metal–nitrogen–carbon (M–N–C) with cost‐effectiveness, encouraging activity, unique advantages (e.g., homogeneous activity sites, high atom efficiency, intrinsic activity) have been widely investigated. Considerable progress domain has witnessed past decade. Herein, comprehensive summary recent development M–N–C ORR under acidic conditions application electrode assembly (MEA) PEM cells, presented. The mechanisms, composition, operating principles PEMFCs introduced. Thereafter, towards improved MEA performance is summarized detail, improvement strategies stability systematically analyzed. Finally, remaining challenges significant research directions design high‐performance discussed.
