Ultrathin CoO nanosheets enable direct CO2 hydrogenation to acetic acid

Direct hydrogenation of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) to acetic acid, a key commodity chemical, offers a sustainable route to valorize greenhouse gases but is plagued by CO2 inertness, thermodynamic barriers, and poor selectivity for C-C coupling over competing overhydrogenation. This paper describes the design and synthesis o...
