Article Synopsis
- The study introduces a fluorinated 2D/2D FeNi layered double hydroxide/MXene structure (F-LDH/MX) that enhances oxygen evolution reaction (OER) by utilizing lattice oxygen, which is crucial for improving efficiency.
- Fluorine enhances the self-evolution of the catalyst in alkaline conditions without needing external current, promoting the formation of active metal oxyhydroxides and increasing active oxygen vacancies that activate lattice oxygen.
- F-LDH/MX demonstrates exceptional performance with a low overpotential of 251 mV and Tafel slope of 40.28 mV dec, making it suitable for applications like water electrolyzers and Zn-air batteries, showing potential for efficient energy conversion and
Electrochemical CO reduction reaction (CORR) to produce value-added multi-carbon chemicals has been an appealing approach to achieving environmentally friendly carbon neutrality in recent years. Despite extensive research focusing on the use of CO to produce high-value chemicals like high-energy-density hydrocarbons, there have been few reports on the production of propane (CH), which requires carbon chain elongation and protonation. A rationally designed 0D/2D hybrid CuO anchored-TiCT MXene catalyst (CuO/MXene) is demonstrated with efficient CORR activity in an aqueous electrolyte to produce CH.
