Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing an amalgam electrode, an amalgam electrode manufactured by the method, and a method for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide using the amalgam electrode.
Claims9
A method for manufacturing a porous amalgam electrode for electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide, comprising:
- electroplating mercury (Hg) and a metal selected from the group consisting of Ag, Sn, Cu, Zn, Pb, Sb, and combinations thereof on a surface of a porous substrate electrode to form the porous amalgam electrode, wherein the electroplating includes immerging the porous substrate electrode in a solution containing the mercury or the metal, and then electrochemically reducing the mercury or the metal.
