Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are regarded as promising materials for CO adsorption, which is an important step in CO electrochemical reduction. In this work, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) nanomaterials were synthesized with various zinc sources and used as electrocatalysts for CO reduction to CO. Among them, ZIF-8, prepared using ZnSO , delivers the best catalytic activity towards CO electroreduction, with 65 % CO yield. The main catalytic center can be attributed to the discrete Zn nodes in ZIF-8. Electrolytes are important in increasing the CO selectivity, and NaCl is the best suitable electrolyte due to facile anion exchange.
金属有机框架材料(MOFs)被认为是用于CO吸附的有前景的材料,而CO吸附是CO电化学还原中的重要一步。在这项工作中,使用各种锌源合成了沸石咪唑酯骨架(ZIF-8)纳米材料,并将其用作将CO还原为CO的电催化剂。其中,使用ZnSO制备的ZIF-8对CO电还原具有最佳的催化活性,CO产率为65%。主要催化中心可归因于ZIF-8中离散的Zn节点。电解质对于提高CO选择性很重要,而NaCl由于易于进行阴离子交换是最合适的电解质。
