MXenes for CO ₂ Reduction and H ₂ Generation

Development and experimental analysis of polymer based composite bipolar plate usingAquila Taguchioptimization: Design of experiments

“…Initially, the carbon black, glass fiber, and graphite were mixed homogeneously by using of ball mill. [52][53][54] The different sets of diameter balls were selected such as 5 and 10 mm stainless steel balls; milling speed was maintained at 150 rpm for 1 h. [55] Furthermore, the epoxy and silicone resin with curing media were mixed well with the help of a high-speed mechanical mixer, the mixing speed was maintained at 1100 rpm for 50 s. In the final stage, both the composites mixture and resin mixture were dispersed thoroughly by using Haake Rheomix Lab Mixers. The mixer rotational speed was set at 20, 30, 40, and 50 rpm, with different mixing times such as 10, 15, 20, and 25 min and regulate the mixing temperature such as 25, 30, 35, and 40 C. In the end, the mixed composites were poured into the steel mold, in the pouring process the curing time was maintained at 2 h, with a curing temperature of 140 C and a curing pressure of 110 bar.…”

Ab initio investigation of tunable CO2 reduction reaction on the two dimensional ferroelectric Y2CO2

“…28,29 In particular, the family of 2D MXenes has recently gained attention as a possible family for use as CO 2 RR catalysts. [30][31][32][33] MXenes are carbides and nitrides consisting of layers of C or N (X) atoms sandwiched between layers of metal atoms (M). While M 2 X, M 3 X 2 , and M 4 X 3 compounds have been studied signicantly, 34 oen the MXene layers are terminated by surface species like O, F, Cl, and others, to form compounds like M 2 XT 2 .…”
