Selective electrooxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural at low working potentials promoted by 3D hierarchical Cu(OH)₂@Ni₃Co₁-layered double hydroxide architecture with oxygen vacancies.

ABSTRACT: Selective electrooxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is of great significance in the manufacture of fine chemicals, liquid fuels, pharmaceuticals, plastics, etc., but still suffers from the high potential input, resulting in high electricity consumption. Developing active, low-cost and stable electrocatalysts is crucial for this electrochemical reaction at low working potentials. Herein, a three-dimensional (3D) hierarchical Cu(OH)₂@Ni₃Co₁-layered double hydroxide architecture with abundant oxygen vacancies (Vo) was synthesized by facile electrodeposition of Ni₃Co₁-LDH nanosheets on copper foam (CF) supported-Cu(OH)₂ nanorods (CF/Cu(OH)₂@Ni₃Co₁
