AbstractCO2 electrochemical reduction reaction (CO2RR) is an attractive strategy for closing the anthropogenic carbon cycle and storing intermittent renewable energy. Tin-based electrocatalysts exhibit remarkable properties for reducing CO2 into HCOOH. However, the effects of morphology and oxidation state of tin-based electrocatalysts on the performance of CO2 reduction have not been well-described. We evaluate the oxidation state and particle size of SnOx for CO2 reduction. SnOx was effective for converting CO2 into formic acid, reaching a maximum selectivity of 69%. The SnO exhibited high activity for CO2RR compared to SnO2 electrocatalysts. A pre-reduction step of a SnO2 electrocatalyst increased its CO2 reduction performance, confirming that Sn2+ is more active than Sn4+ sites. The microsized SnO2 is more effective for converting CO2 into formic acid than nanosized SnO2, likely due to the impurities of nanosized SnO2. We illuminated the role played by both SnOx particle size and oxidation state on CO2RR performance. Graphic abstract

The state of the electrocatalyst surface—including the oxidation state of the catalyst and the presence of spectator species—is investigated on Cu surfaces with density functional theory in order to understand predicted ramifications on the selectivity of CO2 reduction between CH4 and CH3OH.
