Rapid thermal shock method achieves uniform dispersion of metal nanoparticles on carbon supports

The electrocatalytic reduction of carbon dioxide into high-value chemicals and fuels offers a promising strategy for addressing the global energy crisis and worsening environmental issues. However, the high thermodynamic stability of CO2 molecules, competitive hydrogen evolution reactions, and the complexity of products pose significant challenges. Therefore, the selection and design of electrocatalysts are crucial for improving product selectivity and energy efficiency. https://phys.org/news/2024-07-rapid-thermal-method-uniform-dispersion.html
