Chemical Research in Chinese Universities Aims and scope

Abstract

Converting CO2 into chemicals with electricity generated by renewable energy is a promising way to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality. Carbon-based materials have the advantages of low cost, wide sources and environmental friendliness. In this work, we prepared a series of boron-doped covalent triazine frameworks and found that boron do** can significantly improve the CO selectivity up to 91.2% in the CO2 electroreduction reactions(CO2RR). The effect of different do** ratios on the activity by adjusting the proportion of doped atoms was systematically investigated. This work proves that the do** modification of non-metallic materials is a very effective way to improve their activity, and also lays a foundation for the study of other element do** in the coming future.
