Impurity Ion Complexation Enhances Carbon Dioxide Reduction Catalysis

Herein, we show that group 11 CO[subscript 2] reduction catalysts are rapidly poisoned by progressive deposition of trace metal ion impurities present in high purity electrolytes. Metal impurity deposition was characterized by XPS and in situ stripping voltammetry and is coincident with loss of cata...
