Fe doping promoted electrocatalytic N2 reduction reaction of 2H MoS2

Publication date: Available online 13 February 2020Source: Chinese Chemical LettersAuthor(s): Jiaojiao Guo, Tsegaye Tadesse Tsega, Ibrahim Ul Islam, Asma Iqbal, Jiantao Zai, Xuefeng QianAbstractElectrocatalytic N2 reduction to ammonia is a fascinating alternative to Haber-Bosch process and also considered as an energy storage method. This work, Fe doped MoS2/carbon cloth (CC) has been studied on the electro-catalysis fix nitrogen indicating the doped Fe can indeed enhance the MoS2 material ability. Compared with MoS2/CC, Fe-Mo-S-3/CC not only increases 10 times in the rate of production ammonia, but also 5 times in Faraday efficiency.Graphical AbstractElectrocatalytic N2 reduction to ammonia is a fascinating alternative to Haber-Bosch process and also considered as an energy storage method.
