Enhancing the Electrocatalytic Oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Through Cascade Structure Tuning for Highly Stable Biomass Upgrading
Abstract
Highlights A novel cascade strategy is proposed to construct Pd-NiCo2O4 electrocatalyst. First time discovery that Ni incorporation together with Pd loading is able to balance the competitive adsorption of OH– and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. Pd–NiCo2O4 promotes both the indirect and direct synergistic oxidation process. Pd–NiCo2O4 catalyst exhibits extraordinary current density and excellent Faradaic Efficiency at a low potential.
