As can be seen from FIG. 1, the complex formed on the surface of the silver foil in example 1 is of the zigzag type;
as can be seen from fig. 2 and 3, in examples 1 to 6, diffraction peaks corresponding to the standard reference were observed, and a layer of substance was covered on the surface of the silver foil under a microscope; from examples 1 and 2, it is clear that 0.1mm silver foil is more favorable for the synthesis of the complex on the surface; from examples 1, 3, 4 it is clear that a deposition of 30 minutes is advantageous for a more uniform coverage of the surface complex; from examples 1, 5 and 6, it is shown that a molar ratio of 2-methylimidazole to silver nitrate of 4:1 is more advantageous for a uniform coverage of the complex.
As can be seen from FIG. 4, in each of comparative examples 1 to 4, although diffraction peaks corresponding to the standard reference were observed, the peak intensities were lower, and the effect was not as good as that of the use of 3 ml ammonia in the synthesis process of example 1.
As is clear from FIG. 5, the crystals of example 1 were excellent in dispersibility, regular in shape and uniform in size.
As can be seen from FIG. 6, the optimum potential in examples 1 and 2 is-0.9V%vs.RHE), the faraday efficiency of the CO product is effectively improved and the faraday efficiency of the hydrogen evolution reaction is effectively suppressed compared with the silver foil catalyst. The silver-imidazole complex and Ag composite material can be applied to electrocatalytic CO 2 In the reduction reaction, higher can be obtainedThe electrocatalytic activity and the selectivity thereof are better.

As can be seen from fig. 8, the catalyst directly synthesized from example 1 has a lower overpotential and a higher current density at a low potential than the Ag-mim-a complex alone directly supported on the glassy carbon electrode.
As can be seen from fig. 9, the material prepared in example 1 was stable during the test period of 8 h, and the faraday efficiency of the CO product did not change much during electrolysis, indicating that the material prepared in example 1 had good stability.
