An immunosensing platform was developed based on the enhanced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of luminol-dissolved oxygen (O 2 ) by nanochannel-confined Ni(OH) 2 -CeO 2 composite nanozyme, which is able to sensitively detect cytokine. The mesoporous silica nanochannel array film (SNF), decorated on a cost-effective ITO electrode, features ultrasmall (2∼3 nm) nanochannels, enabling the confinement of in situ synthesized Ni(OH) 2 -CeO 2 composite nanozyme via a continuous electrodeposition process. Ni(OH) 2 -CeO 2 exhibits dual peroxidase (POD) and oxidase (OXD) enzyme-like activities, serving as an efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyst to produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) and catalyze luminol oxidation. Compared to nanozymes synthesized on flat electrodes, nanochannel-confined nanozyme demonstrates superior ECL enhancement. The combination of Ni(OH) 2 and CeO 2 exhibits strong synergistic catalytic performance, boosting ECL of luminol-O 2 under neutral conditions by 33.7 orders compared to electrode without confined nanozyme. Using tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) as a proof-of-concept demonstration, immunosensor is fabricated by immobilization recognition antibodies on the SNF outer surface. TNF-α binding induces immunocomplex formation, reducing ECL signal by increasing interfacial resistance and hindering luminol diffuse. This enables sensitive TNF-α detection over a wide linear range (10 fg/mL to 10 ng/mL) with an ultralow detection limit of 8 fg/mL. The immunosensor demonstrates good selectivity, stability, and reproducibility.

In this research, Mo-oxides complexes combined with Co(OH) 2 grown on three-dimensional (3D) nickel foam (Mo-Co(OH) 2 /NF) were developed as a peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activator enabling a pathway transition from radical to non-radical for efficient degradation of organic pollutants. The incorporation of high-valence Mo species promoted the formation of sheet structure and facilitated the Co(II)/Co(III) ratio, while Co served as the primary active site for PMS activation. Consequently, complete removal of 40 mg/L Rhodamine B (RhB) in optimized conditions (catalyst = 1.5 cm 2 , 0.4 g/L PMS dosage, reaction temperature = 25 °C) was achieved within 2 min. In addition, excellent adaptability was exhibited over a wide pH (3.0–9.0) and versatility (99 %, 80.94 % and 91.54 % for MB, LFX, and TC, respectively) in Mo-Co(OH) 2 /NF + PMS system. Impressively, radical scavenging experiments and electron spin resonance (ESR) analyses revealed that the degradation process was mainly dominated by the conversion of O 2 •– to non-radical 1 O 2 . Hence, this work demonstrates the potential of high-valent metal-oxides complexes integrated with Co(OH) 2 as effective PMS activators for non-radical degradation of dye and other refractory antibiotics, significantly broadening their applications in environmental remediation.

LiNi 0.915 Co 0.075 Al 0.01 O 2 (NCA) with Zr(OH) 4 coating is demonstrated as high performance cathode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). The coated materials are synthesized via a simple dry coating method of NCA with Zr(OH) 4 powders, and then characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Experimental results show that amorphous Zr(OH) 4 powders have been successfully coated on the surface of spherical NCA particles, exhibiting improved electrochemical performance . 0.50 wt% Zr(OH) 4 coated NCA delivers a capacity of 197.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 154.3 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 78.1% at 1 C rate. In comparison, the pure NCA shows a capacity of 194.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 142.5 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 73.2% at 1 C rate. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results show that the coated material exhibits a lower resistance, indicating that the coating layer can efficiently suppress transition metals dissolution and decrease the side reactions at the surface between the electrode and electrolyte. Therefore, surface coating with amorphous Zr(OH) 4 is a simple and useful method to enhance the electrochemical performance of NCA-based materials for the cathode of LIBs.

The insufficient energy density of electrode materials has hindered the popularity and application of supercapacitors. The construction of hybrid supercapacitors offers an ideal solution by combining transition-metal hydroxides with high specific capacity and biochar with excellent conductivity. In this study, an electrode material (β-Ni(OH) 2 @AC 22 composite) was created by in situ growth flower-like β-Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets on biochar (AC) that extracted from the seed coat of Xanthoceras sorbifolium Bunge . This β-Ni(OH) 2 @AC 22 composite exhibited a remarkable specific capacity of 617.5C g −1 (1 A g −1 ), nearly four times that of AC, and remarkable cycling stability (85.6 % retention after 5000 cycles). Using this composite as the positive electrode and biochar as the negative electrode, the assembled battery-type hybrid supercapacitors (HSCs) achieved a specific capacity of 92.75C g −1 (1 A g −1 ). The HSCs demonstrated a specific energy of 57.9 Wh kg −1 , a specific power of 750.9 W kg −1 , and even maintained 42.2 Wh kg −1 at a maximum specific power of 6049.4 W kg −1 . The device maintained a specific capacity of about 78.7 % after 7000 charging/discharging cycles, demonstrating good practical performance. These results highlight the practical application potential of the prepared composites in supercapacitors, with biochar serving as a basis for enhancing the electrochemical performance of supercapacitors.

Novel Pt/Co(OH)2-NiO/C catalysts based on carbon black were successfully synthesized using the hydrazine hydrate reduction method and galvanic replacement strategies. They were subsequently tested for their activity in the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol. It was observed that the peak current density of Pt/Co(OH)2-NiO/C (8.29 A mg-1Pt) was 22.4 times higher than that of commercial Pt/C-JM (0.37 A mg-1Pt). The electrocatalytic activities and durabilities of the synchronously synthesized Pt/Co(OH)2-NiO/C catalysts were significantly better than those of PtCo/C, PtNi/C, and PtCoNi/C-X (X = 200, 400, 600) catalysts synthesized by calcination in Ar at different temperatures. The reason is that the highly dispersed Pt helps to expose more active sites on the catalyst surface, and the addition of Co(OH)2 and NiO alters the electron density of Pt, which reduces the adsorption of intermediate CO, attenuates the toxic effect, and enables more efficient oxidation of methanol.

ABSTRACT In order to reduce energy consumption in water electrolysis, it is of great importance to design active and stable electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline solution, especially based on earth-abundant metal. Here we integrate carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and Ni-Ni(OH) 2 heterostructure multifunctional components to design a self-supported 3D CNTs-Ni-Ni(OH) 2 catalyst for HER by composite deposition and subsequent in-situ oxidation . In alkaline solution, this designed CNTs-Ni-Ni(OH) 2 catalyst exhibits 0 mV onset overpotential, and overpotentials of 65 mV and 109 mV at 10 and 50 mA/cm 2 respectively. Electrochemical measurements, characterizations, and simulation results attribute the outstanding performance to the incorporation of CNTs and heterostructure . CNTs induce the formation 3D catalytic surface, enhance electrochemical active surface area , and more importantly weaken the adsorption of H. Moreover, the formation of heterostructure, especially reversible Ni(OH) 2 , supplies active sites and adjusts the adsorption strength of H atom to an optimal value. CNTs and heterostructure synergistically facilitate water adsorption, promote water dissociation, and accelerate H 2 desorption. Significantly, integration of multifunctional components supplies a distinct strategy for development of cost-effective electrocatalyst with outstanding performance.

Developing high-efficiency adsorbents with sufficient active species to remove phosphate from wastewater is still a significant and formidable challenge. Herein, a metal-ion modification strategy was developed to construct a series of lanthanum (La 3 + )-functionalized zirconium-based metal-organic frameworks containing different functional groups through a one-step solvothermal process. The investigations for the influence of functional groups of ligands on the resulting La species and the role of La(OH) 3 in the phosphate removal are the primary focuses of this research. Unlike the simple La doping in UiO-66, UiO-66-NH 2 and many previously reported MOF systems, La(OH) 3 was in situ formed during the preparation of La-functionalized UiO-66-OH, which was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction. At room temperature, the optimized 0.5La-UiO-66-OH, with a molar ratio of La 3+ versus the total metal precursor of 0.5, exhibits a desirable adsorption capacity of 219.6 mg g −1 , exceeding those of UiO-66 (146.8 mg g −1 ), UiO-66-OH (158.9 mg g −1 ), and many reported adsorbents. Besides, reusability tests demonstrate that 0.5La-UiO-66-OH can maintain high adsorption performance (96 %) after five cycles and the practical usability of by 0.5La-UiO-66-OH is confirmed using real lake water. In-depth investigations (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) on mechanism unveiled that the adsorption of phosphate by 0.5La-UiO-66-OH involved a combined process of electrostatic attraction and ligand exchange. This research presents the first regulation of generating active La species within MOFs through subtle modification and provides valuable insights for wastewater treatment.

The development of high-performance and cost-effective electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reactions (OER) is key to renewable energy conversion and storage technologies. In this paper, a hierarchical Co(OH) 2 -MoO 3 nanosheets with petal-like architecture was prepared by a simple one-step hydrothermal method using ZIF-67/NF as a precursor, and it was used as a direct electrocatalyst for OER. Notably, this petal-like Co(OH) 2 -MoO 3 /NF layered nanosheets not only prevent the agglomeration of nanostructured material , but also facilitate the complete penetration and diffusion of electrolyte. In addition, due to the strong electronic interaction between Co(OH) 2 and MoO 3 in the Co(OH) 2 -MoO 3 /NF system, Co(OH) 2 -MoO 3 /NF exhibits excellent electrocatalytic OER performance. It has a low overpotential of 273 mV at 10 mA cm −2 and excellent stability. This study provides a simple and effective strategy for the rational design and structural evolution of MOF-derived materials to achieve inexpensive and effective electrocatalysis.

Structural characterization tests, such as XRD, SEM, HRTEM, and XPS, revealed the subtleties of the morphology, structure, and composition of these nanostructures. The electrode material exhibits an ultra-high capacitance of 2131.2 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 . When combined with activated carbon (AC), the resulting HSC exhibits a high capacitance of 123.2 F g −1 and remarkable cycle life, with 94.6 % capacitance retention after 12,000 cycles. The device achieves an energy density of 39.5 Wh kg −1 at 750 W kg −1 . This study meticulously details the synthesis, structural characterization, and extensive electrochemical analysis, culminating in their effective application in HSCs.

Catalysts in-situ reconstructed from transition metal sulfides for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) have been regarded as potential alternatives for the noble metal catalysts . Intriguingly, it was found that the self-optimized SO 4 2− @Cu doped Co(OH) 2 catalyst was reconstructed from bimetallic sulfide of CuCo 2 S 4 . During the OER process, the copper was partially leached and meantime doped into the in-situ generated Co(OH) 2 with SO 4 2− adsorption, while only oxides were discovered in counterparts of mono-metal sulfides. As a result, the SO 4 2− @Cu doped Co(OH) 2 catalyst exhibited superior OER performances, with low overpotentials of 211/272 mV to achieve the current densities of 10/100 mA cm −2 , exceeding the counterparts reconstructed from mono-metal sulfides. Experimental and theoretical results suggested that the in situ generated Cu doped Co(OH) 2 possessed thin and loosely layered structure with expanded lattice spacing (lattice spacing expanded from 0.28 nm to 0.46 nm) due to the SO 4 2− adsorption, making the intermediates more accessible to the active centers. In addition, the catalyst surface changed from hydrophobicity to super hydrophilicity , which greatly accelerated the mass transfer. This work indicated that the in-situ reconstruction process was greatly influenced by the interactions between metal sites and sulfide species, directly influencing the OER performances of the reconstructed catalysts.

Ni(OH)2derived from an MOF template was synthesized as an electrode material for supercapacitors. The electrochemical performance of the electrode was adjusted by effectively regulating the morphology of Ni(OH)2. The evolution of electrochemical performance of the electrode with morphology of Ni(OH)2was highlighted in detail, based on which honeycomb-like Ni(OH)2was successfully synthesized, and endowed the electrode with outstanding electrochemical performance. For the three-electrode testing system, honeycomb-like Ni(OH)2exhibited a very high specific capacitance (1865 F·g−1at 1 A·g−1, 1550 F·g−1at 5 mV·s−1). Moreover, it also presented an excellent rate capability and cycling stability, due to 59.46 % of the initial value (1 A·g−1) being retained at 10 A·g−1, and 172% of initial value (first circle at 50 mV·s−1) being retained after 20,000 cycles. With respect to the assembled hybrid supercapacitor, honeycomb-like Ni(OH)2also displayed superior electrochemical performance, with a high energy density (83.9 Wh·kg−1at a power density of 374.8 W·kg−1). The outstanding electrochemical performance of Ni(OH)2should be attributed to its unique honeycomb-like structure, with a very high specific surface area, which greatly accelerates the transformation and diffusion of active ions.Keywords:honeycomb-like structure;Ni-MOF;Ni(OH)2;electrode material;supercapacitor

In this work, a 3D Z-scheme photocatalyst Ag/AgBr/Zn 3 V 2 O 7 (OH) 2 ·2H 2 O (Ag/AgBr/ZVO) was synthesized by a hydrothermal method, and a subsequent surface deposition-optical reduction technique. The prepared flower-like Ag/AgBr/ZVO was characterized by scanning election microscopy (SEM), x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), UV-vis spectrophotometry, N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherm based on Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) theory, and electrochemical tests. The photocatalytic degradation performance of the catalyst was investigated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) dye by visible light irradiation. Compared with bare Zn 3 V 2 O 7 (OH) 2 ·2H 2 O (ZVO) nanoflowers, the photocatalytic effect of the 3D Z-scheme heterojunction Ag/AgBr/ZVO was significantly enhanced. The catalyst of 2h-Ag/AgBr/ZVO exhibited the strongest photocatalytic activity, of which the MB degradation rate is about 98.8% in 100 min, which was about five times that of pure ZVO. The increase in the photodegradation rate is ascribed to the accelerated interface charge-transfer process, the faster photogenerated carrier separation rate and the enhancement of visible light absorption. In view of the trapping of the reaction intermediate and the electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement, we propose a possible Z-scheme photocatalytic mechanism. This improved visible-light response likely originates from a synergistic effect of the different components. This work offered an ideal method for producing stable, efficient, and recyclable photocatalysts suitable for use in the visible light range.
