A Cell-Wall-Mimetic Bifunctional Interface for Synchronizing CO2 and Nitrite Activation toward Urea Electrosynthesis.
Electrochemical urea synthesis from CO2 and nitrite (NO2-) offers a sustainable route for carbon and nitrogen cycling, yet it is hindered by the kinetic imbalance between the sluggish CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) and the more facile nitrite reduction reaction (NO2RR). Inspired by the rhizobial cell wall, a natural mu...
