Fig. 2: Characterization and catalytic performances of Ni(OH)2-NS and NiV-LDH-NS.
From: Electrosynthesis of adipic acid with high faradaic efficiency within a wide potential window

a XRD patterns of the Ni(OH)2-NS and the NiV-LDH-NS. FE, productivity, and current densities of AA over b Ni(OH)2-NS and c NiV-LDH-NS at different potentials. The error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent measurements by using the same kind of catalyst. d HRTEM images of NV-LDH-NS. Scale bar, 20 nm. e HAADF-STEM image of NiV-LDH-NS and corresponding element maps showing the distribution of Ni (green), V (yellow), and O (blue). Scale bar, 100 nm. f Ni 2p3/2, g O 1 s, and h V 2p3/2 XPS data for Ni(OH)2-NS (top) and NiV-LDH-NS (bottom). i FE and j productivity of AA over two catalysts in 7 cycles. The error bars represent the standard deviation of three independent measurements by using the same kind of catalyst, which is within 10%. Source data for a–c and f–j are provided in Source Data file.
