Abstract:Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is widely used as a representative transition metal oxides (TMOs) catalyst for electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction (NRR). However, the low stability, low selectivity, low ammonia (NH3) yield and high overpotential of TiO2 towards NRR strongly restricted its application in NRR. Here, we firstly add H to the lattice to synthesize a black TiO(2-x )with oxygen vacancies (OVs) (B-TiO1.8) for electrocatalytic NRR. After we optimized the amount of H and OVs, the NH3 yield and stability can achieve 31.6 mu g h(-1) mg(cat)(-1) and 100 h at -0.1 V (vs. RHE), respectively, the faradaic efficiency (FE) can achieve 47.7% at 0 V (vs. RHE). In situ FTIR / ESR / XPS / TPD illustrate that OVs can promote the adsorption and activation of nitrogen (N-2), and lattice H can increase the number of OVs and stabilize them, suppress the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and promote the hydrogenation of N-2.
