Chlorine evolution reaction (CER) is a critical anode reaction in chlor-alkali electrolysis. Although precious metal-based mixed metal oxides (MMOs) have been widely used as CER catalysts, they suffer from the concomitant generation of oxygen during the CER. Herein, we demonstrate that atomically dispersed Pt-N<sub>4</sub> sites doped on a carbon nanotube (Pt<sub>1</sub>/CNT) can catalyse the CER with excellent activity and selectivity. The Pt<sub>1</sub>/CNT catalyst shows superior CER activity ...[more]
