On-site peroxide generation via electrochemical reduction is gaining tremendous attention due to its importance in many fields, including water treatment technologies. Oxidized graphitic carbon-based materials have been recently proposed as an alternative to metal-based catalysts in the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), and in this work we unravel the role of C=O groups in graphene towards sustainable peroxide formation. We demonstrate a versatile single-step electrochemical exfoliation of graphite to graphene with a controllable degree of oxygen functionalities and thickness, leading to the formation of large quantities of functionalized graphene with tunable rate parameters, such as the rate constant and exchange current density. Higher oxygen-containing exfoliated graphene is known to undergo a two-electron reduction path in ORR having an efficiency of about 80 ± 2% even at high overpotential. Bulk production of H2O2 via electrolysis was also demonstrated at low potential (0.358 mV vs RHE), yielding ≈34 mg/L peroxide with highly functionalized (≈23 atom %) graphene and ≈16 g/L with low functionalized (≈13 atom %) graphene, which is on par with the peroxide production using state-of-the-art precious-metal-based catalysts. Hence this method opens a new scheme for the single-step large-scale production of functionalized carbon-based catalysts (yield ≈45% by weight) that have varying functionalities and can deliver peroxide via the electrochemical ORR process.

AbstractA simple method is reported for the synthesis of monodispersed HfO2 nanoparticles by the ammonia catalyzed hydrolysis and condensation of hafnium (IV) tert-butoxide in the presence of surfactants at room temperature. Transmission electron microscopy shows faceted nanoparticles with an average diameter of 3-4 nm. As-synthesized nanoparticles are amorphous in nature and crystallize upon moderate heat treatment. The HfO2 nanoparticles have a narrow size distribution, large specific surface area and good thermal stability. Specific surface area was about 239 m2/g on as-prepared nanoparticle samples while those annealed at 500 °C have specific surface area of 221 m2/g indicating that there was no significant increase in particle size. This result was further confirmed by TEM images of nanoparticles annealed at 300 °C and 500 °C. X-ray diffraction studies of the crystallized nanoparticles revealed that HfO2 nanoparticles were monoclinic in structure. The synthetic procedure used in this work can be readily modified for large scale production of monodispersed HfO2 nanoparticles.

Selective conversion of CO2 to formate with high current densities is highly desirable but still challenging. Copper hollow fibers with interconnected pore structures were fabricated via a facile method and used as a stand-alone cathode for highly efficient electrochemical reduction of CO2 to formate. Our studies revealed that delivering the reactant CO2 gas to the inner space of the hollow fiber could build up a higher CO2 partial pressure in the pores and presumably reduce the concentration of H[Formula: see text] from the electrolyte to effectively suppress the major competing reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), from 46.9% faradaic efficiency (FE) to 15.0%. A high selectivity for CO2 reduction to formate with a maximum FE of 77.1% was achieved with a high current density of 34.7[Formula: see text]mA cm[Formula: see text], which is one of the highest FEs on Cu-based materials. Mechanistic studies suggest that the abundant active sites along with the unique crystal facets induced by the high pressure of CO2 at the pore surface in the “gas in” mode are attributed to the superior electroactivity and selectivity for the CO2 reduction to formate. The Cu hollow fiber electrodes exhibit an outstanding long-term stability at high current density, showing great potential for large-scale practical applications.
