Nanocrystalline Ni–Mo and Ni–Mo–ZrO 2 coatings were designed and successfully fabricated via electrodeposition process in direct current mode. Impacts of molybdate and ZrO 2 nanoparticles , cathodic current density ( i c ) on surface, structure and performance of Ni–Mo alloy were analyzed. Electrochemical behaviors were evaluated by electrochemical impedance method in sodium chloride solution. A more compact and consistent surface morphology was prepared by introducing molybdate in nickel. Grain sizes of Ni–Mo alloy decreased as molybdate increased from 2 to 6 g L −1 , and enlarged as i c increased. After incorporation of ZrO 2 , the grains initially decreased to 12 nm and later increased to 18 nm. The structure of the deposit is a face-centered cubic phase. With the increase of molybdate content, the preferential Ni (220) crystal plane was changed to oriented (111) plane. The Ni–Mo alloy comprises 91 wt% Ni and 5.4 wt% Mo. R a of Ni–Mo–ZrO 2 was 73 ± 4 nm. Ni–Mo alloys obtained at 20 mA cm −2 and 2 g L −1 molybdate possess the best corrosion-resistant behavior. Incorporation of ZrO 2 can strengthen electrochemical stability and anti-wear behavior of Ni–Mo alloy. The inclusion of ZrO 2 refined the grain size from 18 to 12 nm. The Ni–Mo/ZrO 2 coatings electrodeposited under 2–4 g L −1 Na 2 MoO 4 ·2H 2 O, 20–40 mA cm −2 , 10–15 g L −1 ZrO 2 have excellent wear and corrosion resistance.

CO 2 reforming with methane (DRM) is a potential effective carbon neutralization strategy to convert greenhouse gases into syngas. The key to the DRM process is to design active and coking resistant catalysts. Herein, hollow hierarchical bimetallic NiMo-HMgO catalysts were prepared via hydrothermal-impregnation method. The prepared NiMo-HMgO catalysts exhibited higher catalytic performance during the DRM process than commercial NiMo-CMgO catalysts, due to the formation of Ni-Mo-MgO composite on hierarchical MgO (HMgO), which is promoted by exposed (111) polar surface of HMgO with alternate arrangement of anion and cation layers. The deposited carbon and stability can be effectively regulated by adjusting the amount of Ni and the molar ratio of Mo/(Ni+Mo). The synergistic effect of metal and HMgO can provide reference for the research in other related fields.

The design of catalysts with excellent catalytic activity plays an important role in the field of solid-state hydrogen storage of new energy sources. Herein, a novel hydrangea-like NiO@NiMoO 4 composite catalyst was prepared through a facile hydrothermal reaction. Subsequently, NiO@NiMoO 4 was doped into MgH 2 by ball milling to solve the problems of high dehydrogenation temperature and slow desorption kinetics of MgH 2 . It can be seen from the experimental results that the MgH 2 + 10 wt% NiO@NiMoO 4 composite starts to dehydrogenate at about 190 °C, which is about 170 °C lower than that of pure MgH 2 . Meanwhile, after complete dehydrogenation, the composites can start to absorb hydrogen below 40 °C. Compared with pure MgH 2 , the activation energy of hydrogen absorption and dehydrogenation of the composite decreased by 47.6 kJ/mol and 46.5 kJ/mol, respectively. In 10th cycle tests, the MgH 2 + 10 wt% NiO@NiMoO 4 composite still has good cycle stability. After adding a small amount of biomass charcoal, the hydrogen storage capacity can even be maintained above 97%. Furthermore, the characterization results show that the in situ generated new species Mo and Mg 2 Ni/Mg 2 NiH 4 synergistically promote the adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen. This new synergistic mechanism provides new comprehensive insights for improving reversible hydrogen storage in MgH 2 .

Metal oxides-based adsorbents used for desulfurization encounter significant challenges during practical application owing to their inferior reusability and the nature of solid waste of their desulfurization products. This situation might be alleviated to some extent through a rational design of Ni–Mo composite, enabling them firstly to be used as adsorbents for H 2 S removal, and then being utilized as catalysts after desulfurization for C 4 H 4 S hydrogenation. The Ni–Mo composites before and after desulfurization were characterized using XRD, FT-IR, SEM, N 2 adsorption–desorption, XPS, CO 2 -TPD and H 2 -TPR techniques. The experimental findings suggested that Ni and Mo species function as primary active sites for H 2 S adsorption and C 4 H 4 S hydrogenation reactions, respectively. The Ni and Mo composite greatly facilitated the coupling of these two reactions due to the formation of NiMoO 4 phase. This novel active phase not only boosted the interaction between metal and H 2 S but also promoted the formation of weak and moderate alkaline sites, thereby significantly enhancing desulfurization performance. Importantly, this active phase fostered the sulfurization of Mo species and transforming into a Ni–Mo–S component, further favoring the subsequent catalytic reaction in C 4 H 4 S hydrogenation. Consequently, the prepared Ni–Mo composite oxides exhibited excellent properties in H 2 S adsorption and C 4 H 4 S hydrogenation activity, surpassing the capabilities of single metal adsorbents and commercial hydrogenation catalysts.

As a promising technology to mitigate global carbon emissions, photothermal catalytic CO 2 reduction remains a great challenge in increasing the conversion efficiency and regulating the product selectivity. Herein, a series of phase-separated Ni–Mo alloy catalysts for efficient photothermal CO 2 reduction with tunable CO selectivity is reported. With the increase of Mo content, the evolution rate and selectivity of CO increases. The optimal catalyst Ni 1 Mo 1 achieves 32.1% CO 2 conversion with 98.0% of CO selectivity and 71.1 mmol g cat −1 h −1 of CO evolution rate under a 300 W xenon lamp irradiation. Further increasing the Mo content reduces the CO evolution rate while maintaining the high CO selectivity. In the mechanistic study, it is revealed that the Ni–Mo alloy with an appropriate Ni/Mo ratio (e.g., Ni 1 Mo 1 ) possesses a modified electronic structure with more negative d-band center, which increases the light absorption, reduces the H 2 dissociation, and favors the CO desorption, thereby leading to efficient and selective photothermal reduction of CO 2 to CO. In this work, a viable strategy to design nickel-based catalysts is provided for efficient and selective photothermal CO 2 reduction via composition-mediated modification of electronic structure.

Efficient semiconductor-cocatalyst junctions are of direct relevance to solar energy based fuel generation. Here, Ni-Mo ternary nitrides based one-dimensional hierarchical structures (In 2 S 3 -Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N(Ni)) have been successfully prepared and used to achieve visible light driven H 2 evolution. Because of the metallic-like properties of the transition metal nitrides, Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N(Ni) as co-catalysts can promote photo-generated charge-carriers transportation/separation and decrease the overpotential of H 2 -evolution. Thus, the photocatalytic property of optimal 1 wt% In 2 S 3 -Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N(Ni) exhibits a hydrogen evolution rate of 614.2 μmol g -1 h −1 , which is about 10 times as high as that of blank In 2 S 3 (61.4 μmol g −1 h −1 ). Besides, the pure Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N shows higher co-catalytic properties than Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N(Ni). This indicates that the metallic Ni (and related species) lowers the co-catalytic role of ternary nitrides. Another robust indication of this is the fact that In 2 S 3 -Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N nanohybrid displays about 2 times higher H 2 evolution rate than In 2 S 3 -Ni 0.2 Mo 0.8 N(Ni).

Experiments were carried out to research the different contents of Ga2O3 modification effects on the hydrodesulfurization (HDS) performance of 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT) catalyzed by the stepwise impregnation method. Characterization techniques such as XRD, BET, HRTEM, NH3-TPD, and Py-FTIR were performed to determine the effects of each modification of the catalyst by Ga on the properties of the prepared supports and catalysts. The catalytic effect of gallium is reflected in the fact that the empty d-orbitals of Ga elements participate in the formation of molecular orbitals in the active center and change their orbital properties, thus generating a direct desulfurization active phase suitable for complex sulfides for endpoint adsorption. The characterization results indicated that the introduction of Ga2O3 with appropriate content (2 wt.%) promoted Ni and Mo species to disperse uniformly and doping of more Ni atoms into the MoS2 crystals, which also increased the average stacking number and the length of MoS2. As a result, more NiMoS active phases were favored to form in the system. The specific surface area and the amounts of acid sites were increased, facilitating the adsorption of reactant molecules and the HDS reactions. The HDS results also suggested the effects of Ga modification play a very important role in the catalytic performance of the corresponding catalysts. The catalyst Ga–Ni–Mo/Al2O3 exhibited the highest conversion rate towards 4,6-DMDBT HDS when the amount of Ga2O3 loading was 2 wt.% with an LHSV of 2.5 h−1 at 290°C and Ga modification also can effectively improve the direct desulfurization (DDS) route selectivity in varying degrees.

Phenanthrene hydrogenation is a key reaction for improving the quality of gasoline and diesel. Herein, we conduct detailed thermodynamic and kinetic analyses for phenanthrene hydrogenation on a Ni-Mo/HY catalyst. We establish a comprehensive reaction network for phenanthrene hydrogenation, and calculate equilibrium constant, rate constant, adsorption constant, activation energy barrier, and reaction energy for each step in the reaction network. All of the steps in the reaction network are revealed to be exothermic. A kinetic model with 28 parameters is constructed for phenanthrene hydrogenation. The deviation of the product yields calculated by the kinetic model from those obtained in experiments is less than 4.5%, indicating the reasonability and accuracy of the kinetic model. The most favorable pathway for phenanthrene hydrogenation is demonstrated to be phenanthrene → tetrahydrophenanthrene → sym-octahydrophenanthrene → 5,6-butyl-tetrahydronaphthalene → tetralin. These results are helpful for efficiently tuning catalyst properties and optimizing reaction conditions for enhancing phenanthrene hydrogenation.

Electrochemical splitting of water to hydrogen is widely considered as an efficient and sustainable solution to relieve the energy crisis. In this work, we report a facile dealloying method based on metallic glass (Ni61Zr36Mo3) to introduce abundant oxygen vacancies (Ov) for the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The corroded ribbons are composed of a sandwich-like structure with Ni–Mo–O nanoporous layer outside and raw metallic glass inside. This complex structure delivers a low overpotential of 71 ± 2.6 mV at −20 mA cm–2geo in 1.0 M KOH solution, a Tafel slope of 57 ± 3 mV dec–1, and 100 h long-term stability for HER, which is much better than those of the crystallized counterpart, nanoporous Ni, and the commercial benchmark 20% Pt/C electrocatalyst. The high concentration of oxygen vacancies (71.5%), the alloying effect of Mo, and amorphous composition synergistically contribute to the superior electrocatalytic ability and enhanced reaction kinetic of nanoporous Ni–Mo–O, indicating it an excellent low-cost alternative for platinum in hydrogen production.

With the help of hydrogen bonding and π⋯π stacking, the small molecular clusters in the impregnating solution was induced to self-assemble and form a new Ni–Mo polyoxometalate based on octamolybdate with a molecular formula of [Ni(pyz) 6 ] [Mo 8 O 26 (pyz) 2 ]⋅10H 2 O (pyz = pyrazole). The polyoxometalate was structurally characterized detailed by various technologies, and its sulfide was also characterized to make a preliminary study to explore the use of it as a potential NiMoS active phase precursor. Much more NiMoS active phase and higher catalytic activity of the Ni–Mo sulfided catalyst was found, and the structure-directing effects can account for the phenomenon. The results show the Ni–Mo polyoxometalate [Ni(pyz) 6 ] [Mo 8 O 26 (pyz) 2 ]⋅10H 2 O can make a superior precursor to prepare the hydrodesulfurization catalyst, and it provides a new preparation methodology to the rational design and controllable preparation of superior hydrodesulfurization catalysts.

The electrochemical reduction behavior in the preparation of Ni–Mo alloy catalysts using benzyl alcohol (BA) and ethylene glycol (EG) mixed solvents is studied via CV. These studies indicate that the mechanism of Ni–Mo co-deposition corresponds to a typical induced co-deposition mechanism, in which Ni 2+ can facilitate the Mo 6+ reduction while Mo 6+ can suppress the Ni 2+ reduction in the mixed solvents. SEM micrographs reveal that these Ni–Mo alloy catalysts exhibit dense structures composed of 'hillock'-shaped granules, and the size of these granules can be tuned by adjusting the Mo content. XRD pattern reveals that the Ni–Mo catalysts present a nanocrystalline structure with an average crystallite size of 48.7 nm. The experimental data demonstrate that increasing the Mo content in the Ni–Mo alloy catalyst from 5.36 to 11.62 wt% significantly enhances the HER performance. Particularly, the catalyst containing 11.62 wt% Mo demonstrates superior catalytic efficiency in 1 M KOH, requiring an overpotential of merely 58 mV to reach a current density of 10 mA cm −2 .

Hydrogen energy is the most promising clean energy at present and hydrogen production by electrocatalytic water splitting is the frontier technology of alternative energy in the future. Herein, the Ni–Mo alloy supported with nickel foam (NF) was prepared by hydrogen reduction strategy at high temperature. The catalytic activity and stability of NiMo@NF-x catalyst (x stands for temperature) with multistage (sheet/particle) array structure were studied under different temperatures. The performance of the catalyst was evaluated by contact angle and related electrochemical characterization. It was found that the surface of NiMo@NF-550 catalyst prepared at 550 °C had superhydrophilic and superaerophobic properties, which contributed to the deactivation of bubbles from the surface of the electrode and improved the efficiency of the catalytic reaction. Moreover, the multi-stage array structure of sheet/particle will form a greater specific surface area than the plain sheet structure, offering more reaction sites. These results indicate that the self-supported superhydrophilic and superaerophobic Ni–Mo catalysts have excellent electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution ability.
