Ambient electrochemical NO reduction is emerging as an appealing approach toward eliminating NO contaminants and generating NH simultaneously, but its efficiency is challenged by a lack of active and selective electrocatalysts. In this work, we report CoO nanoparticle decorated N-doped carbon nanotubes as an efficient catalyst for highly selective hydrogenation of NO to NH. In 0.1 M NaOH electrolyte with 0.1 M NO, this catalyst is capable of achieving a large NH yield of up to 9041.6 ± 370.7 μg h cm and a high faradaic efficiency of 93.8 ± 1.5%, with excellent durability. Theoretical calculations reveal the catalytic mechanisms.
环境电化学NO还原作为一种消除NO污染物并同时生成NH的有吸引力的方法正在兴起，但其效率受到缺乏活性和选择性电催化剂的挑战。在这项工作中，我们报道了CoO纳米颗粒修饰的N掺杂碳纳米管作为一种高效催化剂，用于将NO高度选择性地氢化为NH。在含有0.1 M NO的0.1 M NaOH电解质中，这种催化剂能够实现高达9041.6±370.7 μg h cm的高NH产率和93.8±1.5%的高法拉第效率，并且具有出色的耐久性。理论计算揭示了催化机制。
