The electrocatalytic carbon dioxide reduction reaction is an effective means of combating the greenhouse effect caused by massive carbon dioxide emissions. Carbon nitride in the graphitic phase (g-CN) has excellent chemical stability and unique structural properties that allow it to be widely used in energy and materials fields. However, due to its relatively low electrical conductivity, to date, little effort has been made to summarize the application of g-CN in the electrocatalytic reduction of CO. This review focuses on the synthesis and functionalization of g-CN and the recent advances of its application as a catalyst and a catalyst support in the electrocatalytic reduction of CO. The modification of g-CN-based catalysts for enhanced CO reduction is critically reviewed. In addition, opportunities for future research on g-CN-based catalysts for electrocatalytic CO reduction are discussed.
电催化二氧化碳还原反应是应对大量二氧化碳排放引起的温室效应的有效手段。石墨相氮化碳(g-CN)具有优异的化学稳定性和独特的结构特性,使其在能源和材料领域得到了广泛的应用。然而,由于其电导率相对较低,迄今为止,很少有人致力于总结 g-CN 在 CO 电催化还原中的应用。本综述重点介绍了 g-CN 的合成和功能化以及其作为催化剂和催化剂载体在 CO 电催化还原中的应用的最新进展。综述了 g-CN 基催化剂的改性以增强 CO 还原。此外,还讨论了 g-CN 基催化剂在电催化 CO 还原方面未来研究的机会。
