Problems solved by technology

However, the conductivity of the copper oxide catalyst is poor, resulting in a small total current density of the reaction and poor catalyst activity; and the copper oxide catalyst has poor stability and is prone to agglomeration during the reaction process, leading to catalyst deactivation; C 2 h 4 Selectivity remains low (<40%)
In recent years, researchers have begun to pay attention to metal-carbon composite materials and use them in the field of electrocatalytic CO2 reduction, but the composite process of metal and carbon materials is still relatively complicated, and metal particles are easy to problems such as reunion
