Abstract
The addition of a CO2 -adsorption component (substituted imidazolate-based SIM-1 crystals) to a gas-diffusion layer-type catalytic electrode enhances the activity and especially the selectivity towards >C1 carbon chain products (ethanol, acetone, and isopropanol) of a Pt-based electrocatalyst that is not able to form products of CO2 reduction involving C-C bond formation under conventional (liquid-phase) conditions. This indicates that the increase of the effective CO2 concentration at the electrode active surface is the factor controlling the formation of >C1 products rather than only the intrinsic properties of the electrocatalyst.
