The critical need to enhance the quality of indoor air leads to the improvement of catalyst activity for the removal of formaldehyde. Sepiolite can be utilized in catalytic reactions for its unique structure, composition and high surface area. The adhesion between sepiolite fibers and the blocked microporous channel (by impurities) demands the activation of natural sepiolite through acid treatment. This treatment successfully produces acid-modified sepiolite Pt-supported samples. The impacts of different acid concentrations, Pt loading content and calcination temperature on catalytic activity for formaldehyde (HCHO) oxidation are studied. The catalytic activity of HCHO is characterized and evaluated by techniques including specific surface area, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectrum, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results show the maximum specific area of sepiolite at the optimized 0.06 M acid concentration. Among all the prepared samples, the 0.02Pt/Sep catalyst calcined at 500 °C exhibits the highest catalytic activity for the oxidation of HCHO.Keywords:HCHO;sepiolite;acid-modified;Pt nanoparticles

MAX phases are frequently dominated as precursors for the preparation of the star material MXene, but less eye-dazzling by their own potential applications. In this work, the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activity of MAX phase is investigated. The MAX-derived electrocatalysts are prepared by a two-step in situ electrosynthesis process, an electrochemical etching step followed by an electrochemical deposition step. First, a Mo 2 TiAlC 2 MAX phase is electrochemically etched in 0.5 m H 2 SO 4 electrolyte. Just several hours, electrochemical dealloy etching of Mo 2 TiAlC 2 MAX powders by applying anode current can acquire a moderated HER performance, outperforming most of reported pure MXene. It is speculated that in situ superficially architecting endogenous MAX/amorphous carbide (MAC) improves its intrinsic catalytic activity. Subsequently, highly active metallic Pt nanoparticles immobilized on MAC (MAC@Pt) shows a transcendental overpotential of 40 mV versus RHE in 0.5 m H 2 SO 4 and 79 mV in 1.0 m KOH at the current density of 10 mA cm −2 without iR correction. Ultrahigh mass activity of MAC@Pt (1.5 A mg pt −1 ) at 100 mV overpotential is also achieved, 29-folds than those of commercial PtC catalysts.

Incorporating g-C 3 N 4 with transition metal phosphides is emerging as a low-cost and robust co-catalyst for hydrogen evolution . The ammonia borane hydrolysis is an efficient method to release H 2 at ambient conditions in the presence of a catalyst. An efficient and cheap catalyst is needed for practical application to achieve this benchmark. For this purpose, a catalyst Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 is synthesized by hydrothermal method and low-temperature phosphidation. The optimization reveals that the Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 with 6.5% Ni contents shows the best performance for H 2 release. Furthermore, 2% Pt nanoparticles loading over Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 boosts the charge transfer and improves activity 5.7-fold compared to Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 , and the Pt-loaded catalyst is depicted as Pt@Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 . The reaction kinetics reveals that the hydrogen evolution rate accelerates by increasing the amount of Pt@Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 and AB concentration, and the loading of Pt nanoparticles loaded over Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 reduces the activation energy significantly. Moreover, the ionic interaction between Pt and Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 generates Ptᵟ + and (Ni 2 P/C 3 N 4 )ᵟ − active sites which facilitates B–H cleavage and O–H bonds of ammonia borane and water, respectively. Incorporating transition metals phosphide and noble metals supported over g-C 3 N 4 paves the pathway toward the efficient H 2 evolution from ammonia borane, bringing cost-effective modifications to synthesize constructive catalysts.

The p-type Sb2Te3alloy, a binary compound belonging to the V2VI3-based materials, has been widely used as a commercial material in the room-temperature zone. However, its low thermoelectric performance hinders its application in the low-medium temperature range. In this study, we prepared Sb2Te3nanosheets coated with nanometer-sized Pt particles using a combination of solvothermal and photo-reduction methods. Our findings demonstrate that despite the adverse effects on certain properties, the addition of Pt particles to Sb2Te3significantly improves the thermoelectric properties, primarily due to the enhanced electronic conductivity. The optimalZTvalue reached 1.67 at 573 K for Sb2Te3coated with 0.2 wt% Pt particles, and it remained above 1.0 within the temperature range of 333–573 K. These values represent a 47% and 49% increase, respectively, compared to the pure Sb2Te3matrix. This enhancement in thermoelectric performance can be attributed to the presence of Pt metal particles, which effectively enhance carrier and phonon transport properties. Additionally, we conducted a Density Functional Theory (DFT) study to gain further insights into the underlying mechanisms. The results revealed that Sb2Te3doped with Pt exhibited a doping level in the band structure, and a sharp rise in the Density of States (DOS) was observed. This sharp rise can be attributed to the presence of Pt atoms, which lead to enhanced electronic conductivity. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the incorporation of nanometer-sized Pt particles effectively improves the carrier and phonon transport properties of the Sb2Te3alloy. This makes it a promising candidate for medium-temperature thermoelectric applications, as evidenced by the significant enhancement in thermoelectric performance achieved in this study.Keywords:thermoelectric materials;Sb2Te3nanosheets;Pt nanoparticles;solvothermal method

MoO 3 with Pt-like d-band center electronic structure is an ideal catalyst carrier, but its low conductivity, wide-bandgap and poor photoresponse limits the application of photoelectrocatalysis. Designing doping and oxygen vacancies simultaneously in MoO 3 is a candidate strategy to address some challenges. Herein, a 2D oxygen-vacancies Ce-MoO 3 /Pt (OVs-Ce-MoO 3 /Pt) nanosheet is developed using a two-step method of hydrothermal and chemical reduction. The band gap, optical properties, and methanol adsorption capacity of MoO 3 are well regulated after Ce doping and oxygen vacancy introduction. Profiting by the synergistic promotion of sufficient oxygen vacancies and Ce element, the OVs-Ce-MoO 3 /Pt catalyst exhibits super-efficient photoelectrocatalytic activity (2858 mA mg −1 ) and poisoning-tolerance ability towards methanol oxidation, which is superior to the Ovs-MoO 3 /Pt catalyst (1542 mA mg −1 ) and commercial JM Pt/C catalyst (377 mA mg −1 ). These results indicate that the OVs-Ce-MoO 3 /Pt catalyst can serve as a highly promising catalyst in the field of photoelectrocatalysis.

Design sensing materials with core-shell structure is an excellent strategy to achieve high sensing performance toward acetone detection. Herein, MIL-88A(Fe) was fabricated via a hydrothermal route, which renders as a template to fabricate Fe 2 O 3 @In 2 O 3 core-shell spindles structure. Gas sensing results show that the sensor based on Fe 2 O 3 @In 2 O 3 exhibit enhanced response of 193–200 ppm acetone than that of 36 for pristine Fe 2 O 3 at 200 °C. After Pt functionalization, the response of Fe 2 O 3 @In 2 O 3 /Pt to 200 ppm acetone is up to 839 at a reducing working temperature of 180 °C with a good selectivity and long-term stability. A synergistic mechanism originated from the intrinsic merits of Fe 2 O 3 and In 2 O 3 , the 1D core-shell structure, the creation of heterojunction at the interface of Fe 2 O 3 and In 2 O 3 and the creation of Shottky junction at In 2 O 3 and Pt nanoparticles, and the catalytic reaction of Pt holds accountable for the significant improvement in acetone sensing.

Sonodynamic therapy (SDT) represents a promising, noninvasive, and precise treatment modality for tumors, demonstrating significant potential in clinical applications. However, the efficiency of sonosensitizers in generating reactive oxygen species (ROS) is often limited by rapid electron-hole recombination. In this study, BiF 3 @BiOI is synthesized via a co-precipitation method, followed by in-situ reduction to decorate it with Pt nanoparticles, resulting in BiF 3 @BiOI@Pt-PVP (BBP) nanocomposite for enhancing SDT efficacy. The formation of the BiF 3 @BiOI heterojunction enhances charge separation ability. The decoration of Pt nanoparticles narrows the bandgap and alters the band positions and Fermi level of BBP, which can effectively mitigate the rapid recombination of electron-hole pairs and facilitate a cascade reaction of ROS, thereby improving ROS generation efficiency with ultrasound excitation. Additionally, bismuth ions in BBP and the generated holes consume glutathione, exacerbating cellular oxidative damage, and triggering PANoptosis and ferroptosis. Furthermore, Pt nanoparticles demonstrate peroxidase-like activity, catalyzing endogenous hydrogen peroxide to oxygen. These functions are helpful against tumors for alleviating hypoxic conditions, reshaping the microenvironment, modulating immune cell infiltration capacity, and enhancing the efficacy of immunotherapy. The dual strategy of forming heterojunctions and sensitization with noble metals effectively enhances the efficacy of sono-catalytic therapy-induced immune activation in tumor treatment.

A facile strategy is reported for the fabrication of Pt-loaded core–shell nanocomposite ellipsoids (Fe 2 O 3 -Pt@DSL) consisting of ellipsoidal Fe 2 O 3 cores, double-layered La 2 O 3 shells and deposited Pt nanoparticles (NPs). The formation of the doubled-shelled structure uses Fe 2 O 3 -Pt@mSiO 2 as template sacrificial agent and it involves the re-deposition of silica and self-assembly of metal oxide units. The preparation methods of double-shelled metal oxides avoid repeated coating and etching and could be utilized to fabricate other shaped double-shelled composites. Characterization results indicated that the Fe 2 O 3 -Pt@DSL nanocomposites possessed mesoporous structure and tunable shell thickness. Moreover, due to the formation of Fe 2 O 3 and La 2 O 3 composites, Pt NPs can also be stabilized via deposition on chemically active oxides with a synergistic effect. Therefore, as a catalyst for the reduction of 4-nitrophenol, Fe 2 O 3 -Pt@DSL showed superior catalytic activity and reusability due to structural superiority and enhanced composite synergy. Finally, well-dispersed Pt NPs were encapsulated into the void between the shell layers to construct the Fe 2 O 3 -Pt@DSL-Pt catalyst.

Catalytic hydrogenolysis of lignin to produce arene monomers is promising for efficient utilization of lignocellulose. The acidic carrier supported metal nanoparticles exhibit excellent catalytic performance, while basic carrier was not often used. In this study, a basic hydroxyapatite supported Pt nanoparticles (Pt/HAP-3) were developed for the catalytic hydrogenolysis of alkaline lignin, achieving 15.1 % monomer yield. Characterizations of the catalysts and investigation on the basic sites show that high monomer yield is resulted from the synergy of suitable metal nanoparticles and sufficient basic sites of the carrier. This work might be helpful for preparation of efficient catalysts for the hydrogenolysis of lignin in the future.

Encapsulation of clean metal nanoparticles (NPs) into interior of metal–organic framework (MOF) is of great importance to remarkably improve the stability and tune the catalytic performance of metal NPs. Herein, highly dispersed Pt NPs are encapsulated in UiO-66 with different functional groups on linker (UiO-66-X, X = F, H, NH 2 , OH) through enhanced electron attraction of metal precursor by MOF node and proper reduction by H 2 /Ar gas. Compared with traditional impregnation method, the encapsulation method gives well-defined Pt NPs and controllable microenvironment. Detailed characterizations reveal that functional group of the linker can effectively tune the microenvironment and electronic properties of guest Pt NPs. In situ FTIR was utilized to investigate the adsorption capability and strength of reactants on the catalysts. The electron-deficient Pt species and appropriate surface hydrophobicity match well with the reactants, which is responsible for enhanced catalytic hydrogenation activity of C C and nitro groups. The surface hydrophobicity plays a major role in promoting alkyne hydrogenation. This work is devoted to rationalize the relationship between hydrogenation performance and catalyst property of UiO-66 encapsulated Pt NPs, in terms of energy adaptability in electronic state and structure adaptability in surface chemistry. Rational design strategy of Pt-confined-in-MOF composites through molecular level regulation is provided for hydrogenation.

In this study, peroxidase-mimicking core–shell Au@Pt nanoparticles (Au@Pt NPs) were synthesized, and both Hg2+ and Ag+ were found to intensively inhibit the catalytic activity of the Au@Pt NPs. The interactions between the two metal ions and Au@Pt NPs were analyzed through characterization by TEM, DLS, EPR and XPS, etc. Based on the inhibition of both Hg2+ and Ag+ toward the catalytic activity of the Au@Pt NPs and the shielding of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) toward interfering metal ions, a highly sensitive and selective colorimetric assay for Hg2+ and Ag+ was developed. In addition, L-cysteine can be used to mask Hg2+ in the presence of Ag+; therefore, a specific detection of Ag+ ions can be accomplished by this Au@Pt NP-based assay. The limits of detection (LODs) for Hg2+ and Ag+ are 3.5 nM and 2.0 nM, respectively. The linear ranges for detecting Hg2+ and Ag+ are from 10 nM to 200 nM and from 5.0 nM to 100 nM, respectively. Moreover, the colorimetric assay is highly selective toward Hg2+ and Ag+ over other common metal ions. This work demonstrates that the optimization of metal nanoparticle preparation and surface modification play very important roles in developing metal ion sensing based on metal NP enzyme mimics. In addition, the metallic nanozyme based colorimetric method here demonstrates advantages in practical applications as it is low-cost, simple, and highly sensitive and selective, although it needs a two-step reaction.
