Insight into dynamic and steady-state active sites for nitrogen activation to ammonia by cobalt-based catalyst
The industrial synthesis of ammonia using iron-based Haber-Bosch catalyst requires harsh reaction conditions. Here the authors show co-existence of dynamic and steady-state single atom active sites over Co-N-C catalyst to facilitate nitrogen activation for ammonia synthesis under mild conditions.
