Graphical ZIF-67 nanocubes (ZIF-67 NCs) had been etched to produce small amounts of cross-linked Co-LDH-1 while preserving the cubic structure, which provided sufficient quantities of cobalt ions. The catalytic activity of OER has been enhanced by the cubic-structured LDH, which leads to a significantly lower overpotential in alkaline media and a calculated lower activation energy Ea. To address the substantial energy needs of the quickly evolving modern civilization, efforts are still needed to provide sustainable renewable energy sources. The electrocatalytic Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is one of the essential technologies used in the various hydrogen production techniques. ZIF-67 nanocubes (ZIF-67 NCs) were synthesized in an aqueous solution and used as sacrificial templates. Cobalt nitrate hexahydrate was added under water bath conditions, resulting in the evolution of numerous small layered layers of cobalt hydroxide. This ultimately led to the formation of multilayered, three-dimensionally crosslinked Co-LDH with a porous networked cubic morphology. Hydrolysis of Co 2+ at different concentrations produces different degrees of weak acidic environments, and the loose LDH on the cubic structure of the best catalyst, Co-LDH-1, exposes more active cobalt sites for the OER, which results in a high electrochemically active surface area, with an overpotential of 354 mV and a Tafel slope of 79.06 mV dec −1 at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 , and good stability and low activation under alkaline condition also has good stability and low activation energy. It provides us an easy and practical plan for logically creating ZIF-derived hydroxide materials, leading to the development of affordable and effective electrocatalysts.

The effective treatment of oily wastewater is of great significance for the protection of the ecological environment and human health. Aiming to prepare a membrane with excellent antifouling properties, a new active antifouling carbon cloth@Ni-Co LDH/Ag (CC@LDH/Ag) membrane was reported here via in situ hydrothermal growth and followed photo-deposition methods. The effects of Ag deposition on self-cleaning ability and surface wettability of CC@LDH/Ag membrane were studied. The experimental results showed CC@LDH/Ag membrane is superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic, and exhibited high separation efficiency (>98.6%) and high flux (6551–22,050 L m −2 h −1 ) for different kinds of oil/water mixtures. Moreover, CC@LDH/Ag membrane also displayed excellent environmental and mechanical durability. Good self-cleaning ability enabled CC@LDH/Ag membrane to be separated at least 30 times, and still maintained high separation performance. The self-cleaning CC@LDH/Ag membrane may hold great application prospects in oily wastewater remediation.

Delafossite structure CuFeO 2 has attracted researchers’ interest because of its narrow band gap, high stability, low cost and easy availability. However, due to the low efficiency of internal photoinduced charge separation, there is still a gap between its performance and practical application. Herein, a 2D on 2D CuFeO 2 /Co-LDH heterojunction was prepared by in situ growth method with enhanced charge separation efficiency resulted from the interfacial built-in electric field. Electrochemical and spectroscopic characterization were carried out which illustrated the energy band structure of heterojunction indicating the photoinduced electrons transfer from Co-LDH to CuFeO 2 . By fine-tuning the amount of precursor, we found that CuFeO 2 /Co-LDH-3 heterojunction showed the highest photocurrent of 6.07 μA/cm −2 , which presented optimal performance of photocatalytic selective oxidation of benzyl alcohol with the average conversion and selectivity of 84.33%, and 98.48%, respectively. This work proposes a preparation method of novel 2D on 2D CuFeO 2 /Co-LDH heterojunction, which promotes the development of the heterojunction photocatalysts .’

3-dimensional (3D) Fe−Co−LDH/MXene composite was synthesized by in-situ synthesis and assembly of Fe−Co−LDH rod around MXene under hydrothermal condition. Due to the unique 3D configuration and good conductivity, the obtained Fe−Co−LDH/MXene modified glassy carbon electrode (Fe−Co−LDH/MXene/GCE) showed excellent electrochemical activity for As(III) detection. Via square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry, the response current on Fe−Co−LDH/MXene/GCE had good linear relationship with As(III) concentrations (1∼1000 ppt) with superior sensitivity (0.22 μA ppt −1 cm −2 ) and low detection limit (0.9 ppt). The mechanism of As(III) adsorption was demonstrated. The electrode showed excellent anti-interference ability. Real water sample analysis demonstrated the Fe−Co−LDH/MXene/GCE was deployable in aqua-system.

As a typical electrode material in Faraday supercapacitors (FSs), Ni(OH)2 has some intrinsic issues such as low electrical conductivity and structural instability, resulting in its low performance. In view of these issues, we design a multifunctional nanostructure, rigid nanosheet-interlaced structure of Ni–Co LDH/graphene to improve the electrical conductivity and structural stability of Ni(OH)2. Under the high shear applied by a high shear mixer (HSM) and the regulation of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), the designed structure is realized. Benefitting from the well-designed structure and improved electrical conductivity of the graphene sheet-high homogenization, Ni–Co LDH/graphene presents the expected performance. It exhibits a high specific capacity of 1020 C g−1 at a low current density of 2.7 A g−1 and excellent high rate performance (637.5 C g−1 at 62.5 A g−1). The asymmetrical supercapacitors (ASCs) assembled with the composite as the positive material show high energy density (86.5 W h kg−1 at a power density of 695.7 W kg−1). Due to the improved structural stability, the ASCs also exhibit high cycling stability (a capacity retention of 97.8% after 10 000 charge–discharge cycles).

In this paper, two-component nanocages containing CoS x and nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (Ni-Co LDH) were facilely synthesized via a multistep transformation approach. The zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (ZIF-67) nanocrystals were firstly synthesized, and then after partial sulfuration, the CoS x /Ni-Co LDH nanocages were achieved by adding nickel ions for etching and precipitation. The prepared CoS x /Ni-Co LDH nanocages consisted of the hollow rhombic dodecahedral morphology with many nanosheets arrays on the shell. When used as electrode materials for electrochemical capacitors, this CoS x /Ni-Co LDH nanocages deliver a specific capacitance of 1562 F g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 . In addition, an asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with CoS x /Ni-Co LDH as cathode and active carbon (AC) as anode shows a high energy density of 35.8 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 800 W kg −1 and has an excellent cycling performance with the retention rate of 94.56% after 10,000 cycles, suggesting their potential application in high-performance electrochemical capacitors. These exceptional electrochemical properties can be attributed to the unique structure and synergistic effects between the metal sulfide and the bimetallic hydroxide, which also indicate the potential application of CoS x /Ni-Co LDH nanocages in high-performance supercapacitors.

To improve Co-LDH nanosheet utilization in catalytic conversion of microalgal lipids to biodiesel, an efficient bifunctional catalyst with synergetic acid and base sites was synthesized by in situ growth of Co-LDH nanosheets on HY zeolite. The bifunctional catalyst with a molar ratio of Co-LDH nanosheets to HY zeolite at 4 exhibited synergistic catalysis of acid sites in the HY zeolite and base sites Co(OH)x (x = 2, 3) in the Co-LDH nanosheets, which promoted esterification of free fatty acids and transesterification of triglycerides in microalgal lipids. Co-LDH nanosheets were dispersed on the HY zeolite surface through generated Si–O–Co bonds to enhance Co(OH)x (x = 2, 3) utilization, while the specific surface area of the catalyst increased from 107.9 m2/g (Co-LDH) to 272.5 m2/g. Therefore, the optimal catalyst promoted conversion efficiency from 87.8 to 96.1%, and the conversion efficiency remained at 87.6% after six reusability cycles.

Capacitive deionization (CDI) is considered one of the most promising desalination technologies for obtaining fresh water from saline water. In this work, we synthesized a hollow core–shell Co-MOF@Fe/Co-LDH (Co-Fe-LDH) material by developing a strategy to simultaneously grow Co/Fe-LDH on the surface of a Co-MOF precursor in situ. Owing to the increase in the specific surface area of the hollow structure and the Faradaic process of a layered double hydroxide (LDH), the Co-Fe-LDH material exhibits high electrical double layer (EDL) capacitance and pseudocapacitance, which significantly improves the salt adsorption of the material during CDI (34.2 mg/g in a 600 mg/L NaCl solution at 1.2 V). The adsorption for NaCl in this work is approximately 2.5 times the maximum salt adsorption capacity (SAC) of LDH materials applied in nonmembrane CDI (NMCDI). This work may provide a promising model for the application of hollow LDH materials that exhibit pseudocapacitance in CDI.

The charge transport between layers of layered double hydroxide (LDH) with structural stability is generally considered as a key factor in restricting electrochemical performances. Herein, we report the surface spatial confinement effect on Mn–Co LDH@carbon dots (CDs) to enhance charge transfer and the stable structure for high-performance supercapacitors. The surface confined effect should be characterized as the charge transfer and interaction between Mn–Co LDH and CDs using density functional theory calculations. CDs can improve the density of states near the Fermi level to achieve an enhanced conductivity. The geometric structure can remain stable at room temperature within 200 fs by using ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. The two-electrode device gained the energy density of 79 W h kg–1 and a power density of 666 W kg–1 at 1 A g–1. This design concept will help to design, prepare, and assemble the high-efficiency and long-lifetime electrochemical energy storage devices based on various layered materials.

Electrochemical water splitting (EWS) is a highly clean and efficient method for high-purity hydrogen production. Unfortunately, EWS suffers from the sluggish and complex oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics at anode. At present, the efficient, stable, and low-cost non-precious metal based OER electrocatalyst is still a great and long-term challenge for the future industrial application of EWS technology. Herein, we develop a simple and fast approach for gram-scale synthesis of flower-like cobalt-based layered double hydroxides nanosheet aggregates by ultrasonic synthesis, which show outstanding electrocatalytic performance for the oxygen evolution reaction in alkaline media, such as preeminent stability, small overpotential of 300 mV at 10 mA·cm −2 and small Tafel slope of 110 mV·dec −1 .

The development of an inexpensive, efficient and robust water oxidation catalyst is important to achieve water splitting for renewable energy production. Herein, nickel-cobalt layered double hydroxides (Ni-Co LDHs) were rationally synthesized by a facile method and can be served as efficient electrocatalysts for water oxidation. For comparison, Ni-Co LDH nanoflowers have also been synthesized by controlling the synthetic process. The composition and morphologies of the catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The as-obtained Ni-Co LDH nanocages exhibit a high catalytic activity toward the water oxidation reaction (WOR). The electrochemical results show that the overpotential of Ni-Co LDH nanocages electrode was 350 mV at a catalytic current density of 10.0 mA cm -2 in 1.0 M KOH. Moreover, the Tafel slope was as low as ~ 93 mV dec -1 . The unusual catalytic properties of Ni-Co LDH nanocages could be attributed to the hollow structure and the synergetic effect between Ni metal and Co metal.

Adopting of hydroxides alone as electrode materials exhibit moderate performance due to its poor cycle stability and conductivity. In this study, an ultrathin nanostructure composed of nickel–cobalt layered double hydroxide (Ni–Co LDH) grown on carbon fiber cloth (CFC) has been prepared via a simple and efficient electrodeposition (ED) method without any binder or conductive agent, demonstrating an excellent cycle performance of Ni–Co LDH. The electrode delivers an extraordinary specific capacitance of 1540 F g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 , with excellent rate capability of 1284.5 F g −1 even at 15 A g −1 as well as a great cycling stability of specific capacitance remaining 82.9% after 5000 cycles at 10 A g −1 . Then, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device, with Ni–Co LDH as the positive electrode and rGO as the negative one, shows a perfect electrochemical performance. It is believed that in the future, this kind of electrode material will have a widespread application within the realm of electrochemical energy storage.
