Tuning the Polarity of Dinitrile-Based Electrolyte Solutions for CO2 Electroreduction on Copper and Copper-Based Catalysts

Abstract: Accumulating carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations in the atmosphere due to anthropogenic sources has become an increasing threat to the environment because of the resulting effects of global warming. It has therefore become imperative to develop and utilize alternative sustainable sources for fuels and feedstock chemicals. CO2 electrochemical reduction (CO2ER) has been identified as a promising process which can convert CO2 to added value chemicals, such as hydrocarbons. In combination with the use of renewable… Show more

“…Prior findings from the literature show that, under conventional conditions, solution conductivity decreases linearly with decreasing ionic strength. 33 Thus, our findings in these CXEs contradict this expected behavior based only on ionic concentration. However, as previously stated, this is not the sole factor that contributes to conductivity, and thus other effects, identified by molecular dynamics simulations (vide infra), must also be taken into account.…”

“…This also appears to be the case with Et 2 O dilution; dilution of 4 blue points. 33 In addition to the slight deviation from linearity in the dilution-dependent conductivity data using Et 2 O, we also identified several other key insights. The more negative slope/ dependence of the conductivity-vs-concentration plot obtained for the case of dilution with Et 2 O can be superficially understood to arise due to the smaller dielectric constant of Et 2 O (4.27) in comparison to that of MeCN (36.64).…”
