Nano-State Layered Double Hydroxides Based Materials for Photo-Driven C1 Chemical Conversion

Energy is the basic guarantee for human survival. As an important reaction in field of energy, C1 chemical conversion has safeguarded the development of human society. With the proposal of double carbon goal, energy saving-emission reduction and environmental friendliness have been the new pursuit of C1 catalytic conversion researchers. Recently, photo-driven C1 chemical conversion has attracted researchers ' attention through which C1 small molecules can be transformed into various value-added products under ambient condition. Layered double hydroxides (LDH) have gained wide application in photo-driven C1 chemical conversion for their distinctive two-dimensional layered structure. Herein, we review the latest progress achieved in nano-state LDH based materials for photo-driven C1 chemical conversion from three aspects containing LDH precursors acting as catalyst, LDH derivatives acting as catalyst and LDH acting as catalyst carrier, and conclude the challenges this field may face in the future. Through analyzing and discussing above-mentioned work, we hope to offer researchers some inspiration on photo-driven C1 chemistry.
