Enhancing the rate and efficiency of electrochemical ammonia synthesis from N 2 in concentrated divalent electrolytes
Abstract
Bivalent cation water-in-salt electrolytes reduce free water content, suppress the HER and enhance N 2 solubility. Paired with PtRu, they enhance NH 3 production rates and faradaic efficiency relative to dilute electrolytes.
