Abstract:
We report the design of Cu-CoO heterostructure nanosheets as a highly efficient electrocatalyst for the electrochemical conversion of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA). The Cu-CoO nanosheets exhibited remarkable catalytic performance, achieving 100% HMF conversion, 98.2% FDCA yield, and 98.1% Faraday efficiency.
