Nanoporous NiSb to Enhance Nitrogen Electroreduction via Tailoring Competitive Adsorption Sites

Ambient nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR) is attracting extensive interest but still suffers from sluggish kinetics owing to competitive rapid hydrogen evolution and difficult nitrogen activation. Herein, nanoporous NiSb alloy is reported as an efficient electrocatalyst for N2 fixation, achieving a high ammonia yield rate of 56.9 μg h?1 mg?1 with a Faradaic efficiency of 48.0%. Density functional theory calculations reveal that in NiSb alloy, Ni favors N2 hydrogenation while the neighboring Sb separates active sites for proton and N2 adsorption, which optimizes the adsorption/desorption of intermediates and enables an energetically favorable NRR pathway. This work indicates promising electrocatalytic application of the alloys of 3d and p block metals toward the NRR and provides an intriguing strategy to enhance the reduction of inert molecules by restraining the competitive hydrogen adsorption.

Enthalpies of formation of some 3d Transition Metal-Antimony compounds by high temperature direct synthesis calorimetry

In this work we have performed a calorimetric investigation of some thermoelectric compounds, which are useful for energy savings, but do not contain toxic or extremely rare elements. The standard enthalpies of formation at 298 K of some binary antimony and transition metal (TM) compounds have been measured by high temperature direct synthesis calorimetry.
