ABSTRACT
The electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (eNRR) under ambient conditions is deemed a promising alternative for NH3 synthesis. In this paper, an FeP-Fe3O4 nanocomposite electrocatalyst was prepared by phosphating annealing using Fe2O3 as a precursor, and the resulting FeP-Fe3O4 exhibited excellent N2-to-NH3-producing activity over a wide potential window. The highest faradaic efficiency of FeP-Fe3O4 is 11.02% at -0.1 V vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE), and the maximum NH3 yield reaches 12.73 µg h-1 mgcat-1, comparable to or exceeding the reported values in this field. Furthermore, the FeP-Fe3O4 nanocomposite electrocatalyst presents high electrochemical stability, selectivity, and durability.
