The electrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide (CO) into hydrocarbon products emerges as a pivotal sustainable strategy for carbon utilization. Cu-based catalysts are currently prioritized as the most effective means for this process, yet it remains a long-term goal to achieve high product selectivity at elevated current densities. This study delved into exploring the influence of a topological poly(2-aminoazulene) with a substantial dipole moment on modulating the Cu surface dipole field to augment the catalytic activity involved in CO reduction.

Electrochemical reduction of CO (CORR) to multi-carbon products is a promising technology to store intermittent renewable electricity into high-added-value chemicals and close the carbon cycle. Its industrial scalability requires electrocatalysts to be highly selective to certain products, such as ethylene or ethanol. However, a substantial knowledge gap prevents the design of tailor-made materials, as the properties ruling the catalyst selectivity remain elusive.

ConspectusSynthetic extracellular matrix (ECM) engineering is a highly interdisciplinary field integrating materials and polymer science and engineering, chemistry, cell biology, and medicine to develop innovative strategies to investigate and control cell-matrix interactions. Cellular microenvironments are complex and highly dynamic, changing in response to injury and disease. To capture some of these critical dynamics , biomaterial matrices have been developed with tailorable properties that can be modulated in the presence of cells.

The preparation of ethylene (CH) by electrochemical CO reduction (ECOR) has dramatically progressed in recent years. However, the slow kinetics of carbon-carbon (C-C) coupling remains a significant challenge. A generalized facet reconstruction strategy is reported to prepare a 3-phase mixed pre-catalyst (CuN-300) of CuN, CuO, and CuO by controlling the calcination temperature and to obtain the derived Cu catalyst (A-CuN-300-0.
