“…Current density recorded in the presence of methanol was 130 mA cm −2 , which constituted 10 fold increase as compared with solution without methanol addition. Current density reported by Roy et al [134] is higher than the ones reported earlier by other authors [133,135,140], which can be attributed to relatively higher electrochemically active surface area due to the use of Ni foam. Such electrode showed 95% retention of the current density after 2000 s.…”

“…El-Said et al [140] reported hydrothermal method of synthesis of CuO nanoparticles (NPs) at indium tin oxide (ITO), however such electrode has been proven to be not suitable as anode for methanol oxidation in alkaline media. In acidic media CuO NPs@ITO exhibited long-time stability and retained 96.4% of its efficiency after 100 cycles.…”

Recently, nanostructured copper oxides formed via anodizing have been intensively researched due to their potential catalytic applications in emerging issues. The anodic Cu2O and CuO nanowires or nanoneedles are attractive photo- and electrocatalysts since they show wide array of desired electronic and morphological features, such as highly-developed surface area. In CO2 electrochemical reduction reaction (CO2RR) copper and copper-based nanostructures indicate unique adsorption properties to crucial reaction intermediates. Furthermore, anodized copper-based materials enable formation of C2+ hydrocarbons and alcohols with enhanced selectivity. Moreover, anodic copper oxides provide outstanding turnover frequencies in electrochemical methanol oxidation at lowered overpotentials. Therefore, they can be considered as precious metals electrodes substituents in direct methanol fuel cells. Additionally, due to the presence of Cu(III)/Cu(II) redox couple, these materials find application as electrodes for non-enzymatic glucose sensors. In photoelectrochemistry, Cu2O-CuO heterostructures of anodic copper oxides with highly-developed surface area are attractive for water splitting. All the above-mentioned aspects of anodic copper oxides derived catalysts with state-of-the-art background have been reviewed within this paper.

In this study, gold nanoparticles decorated copper oxide‐ zirconium oxide mixture has been deposited on glassy carbon electrode surface by simple electrochemical technique. The obtained composite surface has been investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy, X‐ray diffraction spectroscopy, X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy in detail. The results of SEM images, XPS and XRD data indicated the surface of ZrO2‐CuO composite was successfully decorated with Au nanoparticles. The resulting ZrO2‐CuO/Au nanocomposite contained about 1.48 % Au nanoparticles with 70 nm average diameter. Then, the catalytic performance of ZrO2‐CuO/Au nanocomposites was investigated by using formaldehyde oxidation. The comparative studies have been revealed that the ZrO2‐CuO/Au nanocomposites exhibited a better current density towards formaldehyde oxidation than that of bare, ZrO2‐CuO, and Au modified electrodes in alkaline media. According to the best of our knowledge, this is the first study dealing with the usage of ZrO2‐CuO/Au nanocomposites in formaldehyde oxidation. As the electrochemically fabricated, stable ZrO2‐CuO/Au surface improved catalytic activity towards formaldehyde oxidation, this material is a promising candidate for application in fuel cells and removal of formaldehyde from aqueous solutions.
