Researchers propose doping strategy for efficient urea electrosynthesis

A research team led by Prof. Yan Wensheng from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) has proposed a doping engineering strategy that breaks the scaling relationship of intermediate binding and minimizes the kinetic barrier of C-N coupling while realizing both high activity and high selectivity in urea electrosynthesis. The study is published in Angewandte Chemie International Edition.
