Developing efficient adsorbents for removal of organic pollutants and heavy metals is essential for environmental protection. In this study, a series of GO/UiO-66-(OH)2 composites were synthesized and characterized using XRD, FT-IR, and SEM, confirming enhanced thermal stability, reduced aggregation, and maintained crystallinity of UiO-66-(OH)2 due to GO incorporation. Batch adsorption experiments showed that GO increased the adsorption capacity, with GO-8/UiO-66-(OH)2 achieving 324.2 mg/g for diclofenac sodium (DCF) and 429.3 mg/g for Hg2+. DCF adsorption was primarily governed by physisorption, while Hg adsorption was chemisorptive, involving strong coordination with oxygen functional groups. Kinetic and isotherm studies revealed the suitability of the pseudo-second-order and Freundlich models, with thermodynamic analysis showing exothermic DCF adsorption and endothermic Hg2+ adsorption. The composites also exhibited high selectivity and stable regeneration, making them promising candidates for practical environmental remediation.

The boron-doped α-Ni(OH) 2 nanoflowers (B-α-Ni(OH) 2 ) with high specific surface area (400 m 2 g −1 ) were synthesized by the one pot liquid-phase method using P123 (EO 20 PO 70 EO 20 ) as template and NaBH 4 as alkali and boron sources. The size of the B-α-Ni(OH) 2 nanoflowers is about 300 nm and there are many porous. The 50 nm nanoplates are the basic structure units of nanoflowers and thickness of the nanosheets is approximately 5 nm. The content of B is about 15% among the Ni, B, O elements and boron exists mainly in the form of BO 2 − , which was confirmed by XPS characterization. B-α-Ni(OH) 2 nanoflowers exhibit a high specific capacitance of ~2296 F g −1 at a charge and discharge current density of 3 A g −1 with excellent cycling ability. The high specific capacitance and remarkable rate capability are promising for applications of B-α-Ni(OH) 2 nanostructures as advanced electrochemical capacitor materials with both high energy and cycling ability.

Electrochemical water splitting has excellent application prospects in clean energy technology. However, due to the large overpotential required for the OER reaction during the water-splitting reaction, the modification of electrocatalysts is a vital strategy to address the slow kinetics of the OER reaction. In this paper, a simple and rapid two-step hydrothermal sulfidation method was used to prepare S-modified Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets electrocatalysts at 120 °C. At the same time, the well-designed nanostructured catalyst on the nickel foam substrate exposes a large number of active sites, and the simultaneously generated oxygen vacancies are beneficial to the penetration of the electrolyte and release of O 2 , thus significantly improving the OER performance. In 1.0 M KOH electrolyte, Ni 9 S 8 /Ni(OH) 2 /NF exhibits excellent catalytic activity for OER. The catalyst requires only 430 mV overpotential at a current density of 100 mA cm -2 . In addition, Ni 9 S 8 /Ni(OH) 2 /NF also has excellent long-term stability. Graphical abstract This work reports the formation of Ni 9 S 8 /Ni(OH) 2 /NF heterojunctions by sulfiding Ni(OH) 2 on porous nickel foam. Surprisingly, these Ni 9 S 8 /Ni(OH) 2 /NF heterojunctions exhibit excellent oxygen evolution reaction performance and long-term stability. This is superior to most reported electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reactions.

Layered Co(OH) 2 has been regarded as a potential candidate for pseudocapacitor electrode material, but it is limited by its poor conductivity and low surface area. Herein, carbonated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) were used to improve the conductivity of α-Co(OH) 2 nanocomposites. α-Co(OH) 2 nanoflowers were successfully grown and tangled with MWCNTs-COOH to form a randomly oriented network structure mediated by ammonia using water-methanol as co-solvent at room temperature. The capacitance performances of the obtained α-Co(OH) 2 @MWCNT-COOH composites were investigated to find that MWCNT-COOH improved the specific capacitance efficiently. Especially, in the presence of 20% in mole of MWCNT-COOH, the composite gave rise to the high specific capacitance of 1027 F/g at the current density of 2 A/g with good cycle stability, whose specific capacitance remained 78% of its original even after 5000 cycles at 30 A/g current. The large surface area and strengthening the conductivity of the composites lead to the improvement of efficiency in charge/discharge process.

To solve the intrinsic deficiency inherited from the large band gap of ZnSn(OH)6 (ZSH), a gradual sulfur doping strategy is first proposed here to expand the optical absorption range, improve the separation efficiency of photogenerated electron–hole pairs, and thus enhance the photocatalytic activity. It is demonstrated that the distribution of sulfur in the flower-like ZSH (the sulfur doped sample is denoted as S-ZSH) tends to be largest on the outer most surface and becomes smaller towards the interior. The S-ZSH therefore has a gradual bandgap structure that is beneficial for transferring photogenerated charge carriers from the interior to the surface, which will greatly enhance the utilization of photoelectrons. As a result, the visible light photocurrent density of S-ZSH and the photocatalytic degradation rate of rhodamine (RhB) are about 5 and 10 times higher than with pristine ZSH, respectively.

High stability and efficiency of electrocatalysts are crucial for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) toward water splitting in an alkaline media. Herein, a novel nano-Pt/Nb-doped Co(OH) 2 (Pt/Nb Co(OH) 2 ) nanosheet is designed and synthesized using water-bath treatment and solvothermal reduction approaches. With nano-Pt uniformly anchored onto Nb Co(OH) 2 nanosheet, the synthesized Pt/Nb Co(OH) 2 shows outstanding electrocatalytic performances for alkaline HER, achieving a high stability for at least 33 h, a high mass activity of 0.65 mA µg −1 Pt, and a good catalytic activity with a low overpotential of 112 mV at 10 mA cm −2 . Both experimental and theoretical results prove that Nb-doping significantly optimizes the hydrogen adsorption free energy to accelerate the Heyrovsky step for HER, and boosts the adsorption of H 2 O, which further enhances the water activation. This study provides a new design methodology for the Nb-doped electrocatalysts in an alkaline HER field by facile and green way.

rGO/Ni(OH) 2 /Ni 3 S 2 composite electrode materials were successfully synthesized on Ni foam (NF) by a two-step hydrothermal process and subsequent alkalization treatment. To investigate the influence of reaction time in the secondary hydrothermal process, three different hydrothermal times (4 h, 6 h, 8 h) were set. The results showed that the electrode had the highest specific capacitance of 2260 F·g −1 at 1 A·g −1 at the hydrothermal reaction time of 6 h, (4 h: 1807.8 F·g −1 , 8 h: 1358.3 F·g −1 ). In addition, it exhibited prominent rating capability and cycling stability, with 41.7% retention at 10 A·g −1 and 137.9% retention after 5000 cycles at 50 mV⋅s −1 . Finally, the assembled hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) with rGO/Ni(OH) 2 /Ni 3 S 2 /NF (6 h) and active carbon displayed outstanding electrochemical performance. When the power density was 400.5 W⋅kg −1 , it showed the energy density (25.2 Wh⋅kg −1 ), proving its potential as electrode materials for HSC devices.

Experiments on the flame propagation of starch dust explosion with the participation of ultrafine Mg(OH) 2 in a vertical duct were conducted to reveal the inerting evolution of explosion processes. Combining the dynamic behaviors of flame propagation, the formation law of gaseous combustion products , and the heat dissipation features of solid inert particles, the inerting mechanism of explosion flame propagation is discussed. Results indicate that the ultrafine of Mg(OH) 2 powders can cause the agglomeration of suspended dust clouds, which makes the flame combustion reaction zone fragmented and forms multiple small flame regions. The flame reaction zone presents non-homogeneous insufficient combustion, which leads to the obstruction of the explosion flame propagation process and the obvious pulsation propagation phenomenon. As the proportion of ultrafine Mg(OH) 2 increases, flame speed, flame luminescence intensity, flame temperature and deflagration pressure all show different degrees of inerting behavior. The addition of ultrafine Mg(OH) 2 not only causes partial inerting on the explosion flame, but also the heat dissipation of solid inert particles affects the acceleration of its propagation. The explosion flame propagation is inhibited by the synergistic effect of inert gas-solid phase, which attenuates the risk of starch explosion. The gas-solid synergistic inerting mechanism of starch explosion flame propagation by ultrafine Mg(OH) 2 is further revealed.

As a battery-type electrode material , Ni(OH) 2 has been widely concerned for its ultra-high theoretical specific capacity, however, its poor conductivity and lack of effective active sites hinder its application. It is a great challenge to develop Ni(OH) 2 based supercapacitors . It is critical to improve the electrical conductivity and effective active sites to make full use of the energy storage of Ni(OH) 2 -based materials. Therefore, Ni(OH) 2 /NiS composites are designed and prepared by controllable low temperature chemical deposition and ion exchange method. Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets with various morphology are controllably prepared by low temperature chemical deposition, and then Ni(OH) 2 /NiS composites are controllably prepared on Ni(OH) 2 substrate by ion exchange. Due to the doping of NiS into Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets, the conductive network structure is formed, which makes the composite exhibit excellent electrochemical properties, such as high specific capacity, large specific surface area and good electrical conductivity. The as-fabricated Ni(OH) 2 /NiS indicates an outstanding specific capacity of 240.5 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 . This paper detailed studies the practical application of hybrid supercapacitors , which may inspire future researchers to design Ni(OH) 2 -based materials with desired applications.

An In(OH)3–PDMS sponge has been synthesized by covalent modification of PDA. The sponge can switch surface wettability reversibly between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity when detecting ammonia. The water contact angle changes from 141.5° to 0° after storage in an ammonia atmosphere, which means an ammonia responsive surface wettability switch. The minimum NH3·H2O concentration that the In(OH)3–PDMS can detected is 5% in 2 h. This kind of quick and sensitive ammonia detector is promising simply by virtue of the surface wettability conversion.

Ni(OH) 2 has been long studied as an effective oxygen evolution electrocatalyst . Nevertheless, its catalytic activity can still be further enhanced by microstructural modification and Fe-doping. In this study, with the assistance of adsorbent ferrihydrite (FH), we obtain Fe-doped β-Ni(OH) 2 nanoplates with Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles decorated on the surface via a facile hydrothermal process. The Fe-doping, decorated Fe 2 O 3 nanoparticles , and special microstructure endow β-Ni(OH) 2 nanoplates with an improved oxygen evolution activity in alkaline solutions. For the sample with optimal FH amount, the overpotential to motivate a current density of 10 mA cm −2 is 280 mV, with a low Tafel slope of ~64.17 mV dec −1 . During the 10 h i-t test at 1.50 V vs. RHE , the current density has an attenuation of only 23.7%. The study opens a facile avenue to modify Ni(OH) 2 -based OER catalyst from perspectives of both microstructures and compositions .

Development of excellent and cheap electrocatalysts for water electrolysis is of great significance for application of hydrogen energy. Here, we show a highly efficient and stable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst with multilayer-stacked hybrid structure, in which vertical graphene nanosheets (VGSs), MoS 2 nanosheets, and layered FeCoNi hydroxides (FeCoNi(OH) x ) are successively grown on carbon fibers (CF/VGSs/MoS 2 /FeCoNi(OH) x ). The catalyst exhibits excellent OER performance with a low overpotential of 225 and 241 mV to attain 500 and 1000 mA cm −2 and small Tafel slope of 29.2 mV dec −1 . Theoretical calculation indicates that compositing of FeCoNi(OH) x with MoS 2 could generate favorable electronic structure and decrease the OER overpotential, promoting the electrocatalytic activity. An alkaline water electrolyzer is established using CF/VGSs/MoS 2 /FeCoNi(OH) x anode for overall water splitting, which generates a current density of 100 mA cm −2 at 1.59 V with excellent stability over 100 h. Our highly efficient catalysts have great prospect for water electrolysis.
