Abstract
Electrosynthesis of value-added chemicals, directly from CO2, could foster achievement of carbon neutral through an alternative electrical approach to the energy-intensive thermochemical industry for carbon utilization. Progress in this area, based on electrogeneration of multicarbon products through CO2 electroreduction, however, lags far behind that for C1 products. Reaction routes are complicated and kinetics are slow with scale up to the high levels required for commercialization, posing significant problems. In this review, we identify and summarize state-of-art progress in multicarbon synthesis with a multiscale perspective and discuss current hurdles to be resolved for multicarbon generation from CO2 reduction including atomistic mechanisms, nanoscale electrocatalysts, microscale electrodes, and macroscale electrolyzers with guidelines for future research. The review ends with a cross-scale perspective that links discrepancies between different approaches with extensions to performance and stability issues that arise from extensions to an industrial environment.

Abstract
Controlling the structural and reaction characteristics of carbonaceous anode materials is essential to realizing alternative alkali-ion batteries. In this study, we report on expanded graphite material employing MoSx conversion reaction pillars (EG-MoSx) inserted into the interlayers and assess them as potential anode candidates for Na-ion batteries. We succeed in a tailored control of the insertion characteristics between one-phase reaction and two-phase reaction by modifying the crystal structure of EG-MoSx under different thermal treatment conditions. EG-MoSx-900 anode with an enlarged interlayer of ∼5.38 Å delivers an exceptionally high capacity of 501 mAh g-1. We successfully solve the irreversible capacity issues of the expanded graphite materials by forming chemical preformation of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer on the electrode surface, thereby significantly increasing coulombic efficiencies of thermally tuned EG-MoSx (52.20 → 97.25%). We elucidate the electrochemical mechanism and structural properties of the EG-MoSx anode materials by ex situ characterizations. Inserting active sulfide pillars enables us to overcome the performance limitations of existing Na-ion battery technologies, and we expect that this strategy will be applied to realize another family of alkali-ion batteries.
