• Synthesis method based on urea hydrolysis The synthesis of the CoAl layered double hydroxide phase was carried out by hydrolysis of urea in a two-neck flask (with a reflux condenser) using 50 mL of an aqueous solution of the metal salts at 97 °C for 48 h under Ar atmosphere. The system was continuously

• used without any further purification. Ultrapure water with a resistivity of 18.25 MΩ·cm was used in all experiments. Synthesis of CoAl layered double hydroxide CoAl LDH was synthesized via a simple hydrothermal method using urea as the alkali source. In a typical process, CoCl2·6H2O, AlCl3·6H2O, and
