The hydrogenation of levulinic acid to γ-valerolactone with water as solvent is a crucial reaction for producing fine chemicals. However, the development of highly stable catalysts is still a major challenge. Here, we prepared a Ru nanoparticles incorporated in mesoporous-carbon (Ru-MC) catalyst to achieve high stability in acidic aqueous medium. The Ru-MC showed excellent catalytic performance (12024 h −1 turnover frequency) in the hydrogenation of LA-to-GVL. Compared with Ru supported on mesoporous carbon catalyst (Ru/MC) prepared by conventional wet impregnation method, the Ru-MC showed excellent reusability (more than 6 times) and thermal stability (up to 600 °C). Based on H 2 -TPR-MS characterization, it was proposed that the incorporated structure significantly increased the interaction between Ru nanoparticles and carbon support, which effectively prevent the leaching and sintering of Ru nanoparticles and contributed to increased high reusability and thermal stability of the Ru-MC.

Laser irradiation is a green, simple and efficient technique for material synthesis. A laser-activated-catalyst (LAC) technique is proposed for fabrication of nanowires in solution under ambient conditions. In the present work, effects of intrinsic influential factors such as the activity of precursor, precursor concentration, laser energy density and laser irradiation time on the LAC growth of cadmium chalcogenide nanowires are systematically investigated, which help to reveal the fundamental principles of LAC technique. Laser energy density and activity of precursor are proven to be vital for the growth of nanowires, and our work demonstrates that LAC is a universal way for synthesis of cadmium chalcogenides semiconductors.

A series of manganese oxides (MnO, Mn 3 O 4 , Mn 2 O 3 and MnO 2 ) were prepared and firstly applied as heterogeneous catalysts for the liquid phase epoxidation of alkenes with 30% H 2 O 2 in bicarbonate solution. Under our experimental conditions, MnO exhibited superior activity for the conversion of styrene to achieve ca. 100% with 92.4% selectivity of epoxide, compared to the other three manganese oxides as well as other metal oxides. Furthermore, recycling studies showed the good recyclability of MnO as a heterogeneous catalyst, which did not lose the catalytic activity after four reuses appreciably.

Controllable fabrication of novel and uniform noble metal nanoparticles on a specific support with a superior catalytic or electrocatalytic performance is of significantly importance for practical applications. In this report, we demonstrated an effective way to fabricate uniform thin-walled Pd/polypyrrole (PPy) hollow nanotubes . The prepared Pd/PPy hybrid nanotubes exhibited an excellent peroxidase-like activity to oxidize a typical peroxidase substrate such as 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine in comparison with traditional Pd/C and Pd black catalysts. The outstanding catalytic activity of the Pd/PPy hybrid nanotubes for peroxidase mimicking could be resulting from their unique hollow characteristic and an interfacial effect between PPy and Pd components. Based on the favorable catalytic property of the Pd/PPy hybrid nanotubes, a convenient and rapid colorimetric way to sensitively determine ascorbic acid has been presented. The detection limit was around 0.062 μM and an excellent selectivity was also achieved. The developed detection system in this study could be extended to the fields of bioscience and biotechnology with promising prospects.

A sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed based on the dual catalysis of dendritic Pd-Pt porous nanoparticles and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The Pd-Pt porous nanoparticles, for the first time, were used to immobilize HRP. As a proof-of-concept demonstration, HRP functioned Pd-Pt porous nanoparticles were applied in hCG detection with a detection limit of 0.07 IU L −1 . The linear intervals is 0.1–6.4 IU L -1 . The Pd-Pt-HRP possesses a better sensitivity than the traditional BA-ELISA. Furthermore, the precision and reproducibility and selectivity were assessed to be eligible for the hCG monitoring.

Directly converting metal oxide-adsorbed CO2 to CH4 at low temperatures is a more energy-saving method for achieving carbon capture and utilization. In this study, an Al2O3-supported Ni/CaO composite was greenly prepared by a mechanochemical method. It is found that CO2 capture and selective methanation can be realized over the Ni/CaO/Al2O3 composite at as low as 200 °C under static pressure conditions. The methane yields over the 10Ni/10CaO/γ-Al2O3 composite reach 70.05 and 388.5 μmol CH4 per g at 200 and 350 °C with approximately 100% selectivity to CH4. The experimental results show that the reaction time and temperature obviously affect the methanation yield over the Ni/CaO/Al2O3 composite. This work provides a facile energy-saving strategy for converting CO2 to CH4 at low temperatures.

A strategy is presented for doping graphene into layered double hydroxide films (LDHs) as a means of improving charge transport of the LDH film in a modified glassy carbon electrode. This result in an enhanced electrocatalytic current for dopamine (DA) and a good separation of the potentials of DA, uric acid and ascorbic acid. Under selected conditions, the square wave voltammetric response of the electrode to DA is linear in the concentration range from 1.0 to 199 μM even in the presence of 0.1 mM ascorbic acid, and the detection limit is 0.3 μM at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The method was applied to the determination of DA in pharmaceutical injections with satisfactory results.

By tuning metal ions and combining with different dicarboxylates , four new semi-rigid thiophene-bis-pyridyl-bis-amide-based coordination polymers , namely, [Zn(3-bptpa)(1,3-BDC)]·DMA·2H 2 O ( 1 ), [Zn(3-bptpa)(5-MIP)] ( 2 ), [Cd(3-bptpa)(1,3-BDC)]·2H 2 O ( 3 ) and [Cd(3-bptpa)(5-MIP)]·4H 2 O ( 4 ) (3-bptpa= N,N′ -bis(pyridine-3-yl)thiophene-2,5-dicarboxamide, 1,3-H 2 BDC=1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid, 5-H 2 MIP=5-methylisophthalic acid, DMA= N,N -dimethylacetamide), were solvothermally/hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses, IR spectra , UV–vis diffuse-reflectance spectra (DRS), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and thermal gravimetric analyses (TG). The structural analysis reveals that Zn-complexes 1 and 2 are similar 2D networks. While Cd-complexes 3 and 4 exhibit similar 2-fold interpenetrating 3D α -Po frameworks with the (4 12 ·6 3 ) topology. The photocatalytic properties for the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under ultraviolet light irradiation of the title complexes have been investigated in detail. Furthermore, the luminescent sensing behaviors for metal cations of 1–4 have been studied, the results indicate that 3 is an excellent fluorescent probe , with high sensitivity, selectivity , and simple regeneration, for environmentally relevant Fe 3+ ions.

Carbon nanofibers served as nanoreactors for the design and construction of PtCo alloy carbon core-shell nanostructures with nitrogen doping (PtCo/NCNF) through a combination of electrospinning and nitrogen doping treatments. The PtCo/NCNF hybrid consists of PtCo alloy nanoparticles surrounded by a few of N-doped carbon layers , demonstrating a typical core-shell structures. The PtCo/NCNF hybrid can both served as electrode materials for electrocatalytic water splitting including hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). For the HER performance, the PtCo/NCNF exhibits very small onset potential of 20 mV, an overpotential of 50 mV at a j (vs RHE) = 10 mA cm − 2 and Tafel slope of 30 mV dec − 1 . The PtCo/NCNF hybrid also exhibits high OER activity with an onset potential of 310 mV, an overpotential of 400 mV at a j of 10 mA cm − 2 and a small Tafel slope of 76 mV dec − 1 . The high catalytic activities of PtCo alloy for HER and OER originate from the 3D hierarchical structures, well-dispersed PtCo alloy, high conductivity of NCNF, protection from the carbon-encapsulated structure, and the introduction of nitrogen.

Black core-shelled anatase titania were successfully prepared using a simple one-step synthetic method by calcining colloid titania precursor in N 2 flow under atmospheric pressure. The physicochemical properties of the as-prepared samples were characterized by various techniques such as X-ray diffraction, high resolution transmission electron microcopy, etc. The samples demonstrate a unique core-shelled structure and electron paramagnetic resonance spectra reveal the presence of high concentration of Ti 3+ and oxygen vacancies at the surface, which accounts for their black appearance. A possible mechanism for the formation of such core–shell structure is proposed based on the results (X-ray photoelectron spectra, etc) of products prepared under different ration between urea and hydrochloric acid. Ethanol absolute is found to have critical effect in preventing phase transition of titania (from anatase to rutile) upon elevated temperatures. The black appearance of the sample powder (high visible light absorption) as well as slow electron/hole recombination rate after introducing oxygen vacancies/N species signify the core-shelled anatase titania as an efficient visible light active photocatalyst.

Defect engineering for MOFs is a promising approach to accelerate the charge transfer to further enhance the photocatalytic performance. Up to now, the current defect engineering strategy for MOFs mainly focuses on a single adjustment mode with the apparent ceiling effect, whether the further break out of the ceiling effect could be achieved through the combination of two or more adjustment modes is still in its infancy. In this work, the original NH 2 -MIL-125 was firstly adjusted by a single adjustment mode in ethanol solvothermal method to obtain partially linker defective NM-125-X (where X signifies the distinct temperatures used in the solvothermal treatment, with optimal results observed at X = 120). Subsequently, the NM-125-120 was further re-regulated by adjusting the ligand defects through another adjustment mode in water heating agitation, resulting in the ultimate defective NM-125-120-65. The NM-125-120-65 obtained through double defect engineering avenue showed superior photocatalytic performance with the hydrogen production rate of 11585.23 μmol·g −1 , which was 1.23 and 14.05 times as those of partially defective NM-125-120 (9427.65 μmol·g −1 ) and original NH 2 -MIL-125 (824.85 μmol·g −1 ), respectively. In addition, the NO removal rate of NM-125-120-65 was 64.8 % also higher than that of NM-125-120 (37.8 %) and NH 2 -MIL-125 (23.6 %). Through a series of comparative experiments, especially TGA and XPS, it was noted that the ligand defective NH 2 -MIL-125 can be formed by ethanol solvothermal method, and it was also confirmed that through further re-regulating the ligand defects in water heating agitation, the linker defects could also be further expanded. The PL emission spectra, IT diagrams, and EIS measurements displayed that the NM-125-120-65 had outstanding conductivity and excellent electron mobility compared to NM-125-120 and NH 2 -MIL-125. This work provided a novel approach for the subsequent defect engineering by another adjustment mode based on the existing defective MOFs via double linker defect engineering adjustment modes, so as to further obtain better photocatalytic performance for solving the environmental and energy crisis.

TiO 2-x /g-C 3 N 4 /CdS ternary heterojunctions are fabricated through thermal polymerization-chemical bath deposition combined with in-situ solid-state chemical reduction approach. The prepared materials are characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectra , scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy , nitrogen adsorption-desorption, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The results show that the ternary heterojunctions are formed successfully and CdS quantum dots (QDs) and TiO 2 are anchored on surface of g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets simultaneously. The visible-light-driven photocatalytic degradation ratio of Bisphenol A and hydrogen production rate are up to 95% and ∼254.8 μmol h −1 , respectively, which are several times higher than that of pristine TiO 2 . The excellent visible-light-driven photocatalytic activity can be ascribed to the synergistic effect of TiO 2−x , g-C 3 N 4 and CdS QDs which extend the photoresponse to visible light region and favor the spatial separation of photogenerated charge carriers.
