Enhanced electrocatalytic nitrate reduction to ammonia on silver nanocubes
Silver nanocubes (AgNCs) with {111} facet-dominant and surfactant removal exhibited enhanced electrocatalytic performance for nitrate reduction, achieving a maximum NH<sub>3</sub> yield rate of 39.63 μg h<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> at 0.46 V <i>vs</i>. RHE. Long-term stability tests showed consistent activity, making AgNCs a promising catalyst for sustainable ammonia production.
