Research on Cu-doped SnS2 nanoflowers for efficient electrochemical reduction of CO2 to synthesize formate
To enhance the Faraday efficiency of the surface of Sn-based materials for electrochemical reduction of CO2 to formate,Cu-doped SnS2 nanoflower(Cu-SnS2-x)catalysts enriched with sulfur vacancies are synthesized via a one-step solvothermal method.The prepared catalysts facilitate the electrochemical reduction of CO2 to formate over a broad potential window.By adjusting the molar ratio of Cu to Sn during the catalyst preparation process,a formate Faraday efficiency of 72.64%is achieved at a potential of-1.1 V vs.RHE,with a formate current density reaching-14.38 mA·cm-2.Two-dimensional nanosheet array increases the active sites of the catalysts,and the sulfur vacancies induced by Cu doping synergistically enhances catalytic activity and facilitates electron transfer,thereby improving the selectivity of formate.
