ZnSb nanotubes were grown through a template free electrodeposition method under over-potential conditions. The growth of the nanotubes was attributed to the template effect from H(2) bubbles. Due to their hollow structure, the ZnSb nanotubes depicted better Li ion storage performance compared to that of ZnSb nanoparticles deposited under different conditions.

It was discovered the bimetallic Zn-Sb nanoparticles supported on carbon nanotubes can electrocatalyze CO into formate efficiently, comprising the best performance to date for Sb-based catalysts under moderate overpotential. This project was accomplished by a versatile two-step alcoholysis precipitation strategy with tunable Zn : Sb ratios, and the performance of optimized Zn Sb O was locked in the electrochemical CO reduction reaction. During the subsequent electrolysis, the mixed phases of metallic Zn and Sb served as active centers.
