Electrochemical synthesis of urea on MBenes

Electrochemical synthesis of urea on MBenes

The conversion of N2 and CO2 into urea through electrochemical reactions under ambient conditions represents a novel green urea synthesis method. Here, the authors demonstrate that two-dimensional transition metal borides can serve as effective catalysts for electrochemical urea synthesis.
