Nanoporous Ag-Sn derived from codeposited AgCl-SnO2 for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 with high formate selectivity

Nanoporous Ag-Sn was prepared by direct electroreduction of a codeposited AgCl-SnO2 mixture in 0.1 M HCl, and evaluated as an electrode catalyst for the reduction of CO2 in 0.5 M KHCO3. A volcano-type correlation between selectivity for the formate product and the atomic ratio of Ag to Sn in the nan...
