Title: Ultrahigh Mass Activity for Carbon Dioxide Reduction Enabled by Gold–Iron Core–Shell Nanoparticles

Abstract

Wide application of carbon dioxide (CO₂) electrochemical energy storage requires catalysts with high mass activity. Alloy catalysts can achieve superior performance to single metals while reducing the cost by finely tuning the composition and morphology. We used in silico quantum mechanics rapid screening to identify Au–Fe as a candidate improving CO₂ reduction and then synthesized and tested it experimentally. The synthesized Au–Fe alloy catalyst evolves quickly into a stable Au–Fe core–shell nanoparticle (AuFe-CSNP) after leaching out surface Fe. This AuFe-CSNP exhibits exclusive CO selectivity, long-term stability, nearly a 100-fold increase in mass activity toward CO₂ reduction compared with Au NP, and 0.2 V lower in overpotential. Calculations show that surface defects due to Fe leaching contribute significantly to decrease the overpotential.

Predicted Structures of the Active Sites Responsible for the Improved Reduction of Carbon Dioxide by Gold Nanoparticles

Journal Article Cheng, Tao ; Huang, Yufeng ; Xiao, Hai ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters

Gold (Au) nanoparticles (NPs) are known experimentally to reduce carbon dioxide (CO₂) to carbon monoxide (CO), with far superior performance to Au foils. To obtain guidance in designing improved CO₂ catalysts, we want to understand the nature of the active sites on Au NPs. Here, we employed multiscale atomistic simulations to computationally synthesize and characterize a 10 nm thick Au NP on a carbon nanotube (CNT) support, and then we located active sites from quantum mechanics (QM) calculations on 269 randomly selected sites. The standard scaling relation is that the formation energy of *COOH (ΔE*COOH) is proportional to the bindingmore »« less

Mesoporous silica-encapsulated gold core–shell nanoparticles for active solvent-free benzyl alcohol oxidation

Journal Article Hammond-Pereira, Ellis ; Bryant, Kristin ; Graham, Trenton R. ; ... - Reaction Chemistry & Engineering

Silica-encapsulated gold core@shell nanoparticles (Au@SiO2 CSNPs) were synthesized via a bottom-up procedure and used to catalyze the selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol. The pore size, morphology, crystallinity and composition of Au@SiO2 was evaluated using non-local density functional theory, transmission electron microscopy, high-energy x-ray diffraction and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectroscopy, respectively. The nanoparticles exhibit a mesoporous shell with an average thickness of 25.5 Å which can enhance selectivity via preferential transport of the desired product (i.e., benzaldehyde) relative to larger, undesired products (i.e, benzoic acid/benzyl benzoate). GC-FID analysis revealed the addition of potassium carbonate to the solvent-free oxidation of benzyl alcoholmore »« less

A Molecular Surface Functionalization Approach to Tuning Nanoparticle Electrocatalysts for Carbon Dioxide Reduction

Journal Article Cao, Zhi ; Kim, Dohyung ; Hong, Dachao ; ... - Journal of the American Chemical Society

Conversion of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide (CO₂) to value-added products is an important challenge for sustainable energy research, and nanomaterials offer a broad class of heterogeneous catalysts for such transformations. Here we report a molecular surface functionalization approach to tuning gold nanoparticle (Au NP) electrocatalysts for reduction of CO₂ to CO. The N-heterocyclic (NHC) carbene-functionalized Au NP catalyst exhibits improved faradaic efficiency (FE = 83%) for reduction of CO₂ to CO in water at neutral pH at an overpotential of 0.46 V with a 7.6-fold increase in current density compared to that of the parent Au NP (FE =more »« less

Building Durable Multimetallic Electrocatalysts from Intermetallic Seeds

Journal Article Bueno, Sandra A. ; Ashberry, Hannah M. ; Shafei, Ibrahim ; ... - Accounts of Chemical Research

When combined with earth-abundant metals, Pt-based alloy nanoparticles (NPs) can be cost-effective electrocatalysts. However, these NPs can experience leaching of non-noble-metal components under harsh electrocatalytic conditions. In this work, the Skrabalak group has demonstrated a novel NP construct in which Pt-based random alloy surfaces are stabilized against non-noble-metal leaching by their deposition onto intermetallic seeds. These core@shell NPs are highly durable electrocatalysts, with the ability to tune catalytic performance by the core@shell architecture, surface alloy composition, and NP shape. This versatility was demonstrated in a model system in which random alloy (ra-) PtM surfaces were deposited onto ordered intermetallic (i-)more »« less

Selective Electrocatalytic Reduction of CO₂ into CO at Small, Thiol-Capped Au/Cu Nanoparticles

Journal Article Kauffman, Douglas R. ; Alfonso, Dominic R. ; Tafen, De Nyago ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry. C

The electrochemical CO₂ reduction reaction (CO₂RR) is a promising approach for converting fossil fuel emissions into environmentally sustainable chemicals and fuels. The ability to control the surface structure of CO₂RR nanocatalysts provides an opportunity to tune product selectivity. Bimetallic gold–copper catalysts have been identified as emerging electrocatalyst candidates, but Cu incorporation typically lowers product selectivity compared with pure Au. Here we show sustained CO selectivity and activity up to 49% Cu content in small (<2 nm), thiol-capped Au/Cu nanoparticles (NPs). Bimetallic NPs containing 49% Cu selectivity converted CO₂ into CO with 100 ± 6% CO Faradaic efficiency and average massmore »« less
