Summary. Electrochemical water decomposition as a crucial approach for the gradual growth of renewable energy has attracted extensive attention. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) which benefit from ultra-high specific surface area, controllable nanostructures, and excellent porosity have been widely used as high activity catalyst for the decomposition of water by electrochemical means. Herein, the composition and morphology of metal–organic framework nanoclusters with bimetallic Co/Fe-incorporated PTA/FDA nanoclusters is designed for efficient and durable OER electrocatalysts, including CoFe-BTC/PTA, CoFe-BTC/FDA, and CoFe-PTA/FDA. The crystal structure of MOF materials is composed of alternating organic hydrocarbon BTC, PTA, or FDA and inorganic metal oxide layer. Co and Fe interact as central atoms, joining BTC, PTA, or FDA ligands to form a highly symmetric MOF structure. The electronic structures and active sites of various metals are different, and the insertion of iron atoms plays a certain role in the regulation of their electronic structures. CoFe-PTA/FDA shows significant OER overpotential (1.525 V vs. RHE) reached 10 mA cm-2, with 62.85 mV dec-1 for Tafel slope and pretty conspicuous stability (72 hours of continuous testing). The DFT calculation results show coordination unsaturated metal atom is the primary active center of these electrocatalytic reaction, and the coupling effect caused by adding Fe is the key to adjust the electrocatalytic activity.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with a metal coordination structure mimicking that of enzymes have been widely applied in the sensing field for bioassays, and most of the reports focus on single-metal MOFs. However, bimetallic MOFs have fascinating catalytic capabilities due to their bimetallic coordination. Herein, a two-dimensional sheet-like bimetallic Co/Mn-based MOF (Co/Mn-MOF) with peroxidase-like activity was synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method to accelerate the decomposition of H2O2 with the generation of ˙OH, which further oxidized the classic chromogenic substrate 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) into oxTMB. The Michaelis–Menten constants (Km) and maximum initial velocities (Vmax) of the catalyst were found to be 0.27 mM and 1.64 × 10−7 M s−1 for TMB and 0.24 mM and 5.80 × 10−7 M s−1 for H2O2, respectively. Accordingly, we successfully utilized Co/Mn-MOF-1-1-150 to establish a colorimetric detection platform for the detection of H2O2. A linear absorbance response ranging from 1 to 100 μM with the limit of detection of 0.85 μM (S/N = 3) was obtained under the optimized conditions. The LOD of our catalyst is comparable to that of other MOF-based enzyme mimics for colorimetric detection; this can be ascribed to the synergistic catalytic effect between its two metals, its two-dimensional structure with a small diffusion barrier for the substrate molecules, and large exposed surface area. More importantly, using the proposed sensing method, the determination of H2O2 released by living cells and in spiked water samples was achieved. This revealed that the as-prepared bimetallic Co/Mn-MOF could be a promising candidate as a catalytic material due to its peroxidase activity.

Design of metal Co-based catalysts by different strategies has aroused many attentions in the chemoselective hydrogenation of nitroarenes to improve their catalytic performance. Herein, Co(6)-N-C catalyst with highly dispersed metal Co and Co-N species was synthesized by the assistance of formed Zn species, which exhibits better performance than single atom Co catalyst in the selective hydrogenation of 3-nitrostyrene, in which the increasing of hydrogenation activity is usually accompanied by unsatisfactory selectivity. In this work, Co(6)-N-C catalyst obtains 98.5 % conversion and > 99 % selectivity of 3-vinylaniline, as well as excellent cyclic stability and desirable substrate universality for the hydrogenation of other substituted nitroarenes. It is demonstrated that the good performance is ascribed to the synergy of metallic Co and Co-N species in the Co(6)-N-C catalyst, improving the activity and selectivity. This work provides a novel strategy to construct an efficient Co-based catalyst for enhanced hydrogenation performance.

For the application of intelligent equipment in fire rescue and anti-terrorism, the urgent need of shell materials with comprehensive performance, including radar wave absorption and fire safety, is raised. This study presents the epoxy resin (EP) composite incorporating a floral-structured bimetallic Co/Ni@CuBTC (ACM) with enhanced EMW absorption, flame retardancy and thermal management. The results show that the absorption rate of ACM at 3 mm thickness reaches -42.25 dB for 11.5 GHz EMW, and the dissipation to radar waves at -180 o to 180 o in radar cross section (RCS) simulation reaches -40.2 dB. The EP composite with 5 wt% ACM can block cell phone (800 MHz) and Bluetooth signals (2.4 GHz) at 3 mm thickness. The EP composite with 3 wt% ACM-3 (EP/ACM 3 %) presented the lowest peak heat release rate of 811.2 kW·m -2 , which decreased by 39.5 % compared with pure EP, meanwhile it reached the V-1 rate in UL-94 test, showing a significant improvement in flame retardancy. The thermal conductivity (λ) of EP/ACM 3 % reached 0.811 Wm -1 K -1 , which is 21.9 % higher than that of pure EP, reducing the risk of heat accumulation. The EP/ACM composite, with its integrated capabilities in EMW absorption, flame retardant and thermal management, holds promising applications in unmanned fire rescue and anti-terrorism in future.

The catalyst for direct ethanol synthesis (DES) from syngas was investigated in this work, which is Co/La 2 O 3 -doped La 4 Ga 2 O 9 . The catalyst was prepared by using LaCo 1−x Ga x O 3 with perovskite phase as the precursor to intensify the interaction in the elements of Co, La and Ga. The catalysts were characterized by using XRD , H 2 -TPR, TEM , EDS, XPS , BET, ICP and TG techniques. This catalyst showed high selectivity to ethanol and excellent stability including excellent resistance to sintering and carbon deposition . It seems that the ethanol is generated in the interface between metallic Co and La 4 Ga 2 O 9 , and in the interface cobalt would be positively charged due to the interaction between Co nanoparticles and La 4 Ga 2 O 9 . The results and the related discussions indicate that Co/La 2 O 3 -doped La 4 Ga 2 O 9 catalyst is a promising catalyst for DES from syngas. Graphical abstracts.
