Cobalt-iron layered double hydroxides with ligand modification for boosting glycerol electrooxidation assisted hydrogen production

Abstract

Ligand modified cobalt-iron layered double hydroxides exhibit improved activity and stability for glycerol electrooxidation due to the increased active sites exposure, modulated electronic structures, and stabilized metal sites. Thus, an assembled flow electrolyzer enables high efficiency toward formate and hydrogen production in glycerol electrolysis.
