Figure 5. (A) Schematic illustration for the synthesis of Ni-Co₂P catalyst. (B) Low and (C) high magnification SEM images. (D) TEM image. (E) aberration-corrected HAADF-STEM images of Ni-Co₂P catalyst. (F) The optimized geometries for the HMF adsorption structures and (G) energy profiles for the conversion of HMF to FDCA via HMFCA pathway on Ni-Co₂P (111) and Co₂P (111), respectively. (H) LSV curves. (I) FDCA yields for defective NF, Ni-Co₃O₄ and Ni-Co₂P catalyzed HMFOR at 1.29 V (vs. RHE). Reproduced with permission^[80]. Copyright 2022, Springer Nature.
