Electrocatalytic activity of CoFe_1.9Mo_0.1O₄-Ce_0.8Gd_0.18Ca_0.02O_2-δ composite cathode for ammonia synthesis from water and nitrogen Available to Purchase

This paper aims to investigate the electrocatalytic activity of CoFe_1.9Mo_0.1O₄-Ce_0.8Gd_0.18Ca_0.02O_2-δ composite (CFMo-CGDC) for the direct synthesis of ammonia from H₂O and N₂ under atmospheric pressure.

CoFe_1.9Mo_0.1O₄ nanoparticles (CFMo NPs) were synthesized via a sol-gel method. CFMo NPs were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmet–Teller (BET) specific surface area measurement and scanning electron microscope (SEM). Double-chamber reactor was used to synthesize ammonia using H₂O and N₂ as precursors. The factors affecting the ammonia formation rate (applied voltage and temperature) were studied.
