Reviewer 3 Report

Comments and Suggestions for Authors

In their study, the authors have investigated the use of electrodeposited bimetallic catalysts with Cu-Sn compositions, synthesized by electrochemical deposition. The catalysts were tested for CO2RR in a zero-gap flow electrolyzer.

The discussions were conducted appropriately, and the data are suitable for publication after addressing the following issues:

 

- Figure 2, and 3 Y axis is not clear for the reader!

- When The electrodeposition happends in two-step, perhaps the second metal to be deposited in the responsible of the catalytic acticity? has the authors tried to test the Cu only?

- EDX would enrich the discussion especially to determine the distribution of the elements on the surface when doing two-step electrodeposition? It is hard to know if the first element deposited is exposed to CO2 !

- What is the thickness of the films in different conditions?

- When electrodepositing Sn and Cu at the same time (one step), what is the composite/phase formed?

- Any liquid products have been detected?

- The FEs are the exact values or they are normalised to attain 100%?
