The three-dimensional (3D) microstructures assembled by nanomaterials have attracted great attention due to their unique hierarchical structure and large surface area. In this study, the hierarchical nanosheets-assembled SnS 2 hollow microspheres with an average diameter of 6.1 μm were synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method . Then Pt nanoparticles were deposited on the surface of SnS 2 to form Pt/SnS 2 nanocomposites using the in-situ reduction method. Compared with pristine SnS 2 -based sensors, the Pt/SnS 2 sensors exhibited improved gas-sensing performances to NO 2 gas, including higher sensitivity, shorter response time , and better selectivity . The superior sensing performance can be ascribed to the Schottky junction created between Pt and SnS 2 , along with the catalytic effect of Pt. Moreover, the adsorption energy of SnS 2 and Pt-modified SnS 2 for NO 2 molecules was calculated using first principles based on density functional theory (DFT). The Pt modification can enhance the interaction of NO 2 with the SnS 2 surface, which is favorable for improving the gas-sensing properties. This work provides novel hierarchical SnS 2 microspheres based gas sensors for NO 2 detection.

Incorporating Pt with core metals into Pt-based core-shell catalysts is regarded as a promising strategy to substantially enhance the catalytic properties towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells due to the synergetic effect between distinct metals. In this wok, ultrathin Pt skins with two atomic layers were epitaxially coated on as-prepared icosahedral Au 50 Pd 50 , Au 60 Pd 40 and Au 66 Pd 34 nanocrystal seeds, which are constructed with alloyed cores and Pd shells with different thickness. Through electron microscopic characterizations, Pd interlayers with tunable thickness of 3, 6, and 12 atomic layers can be found in the Au 66 Pd 34 @Pt, Au 60 Pd 40 @Pt and Au 50 Pd 50 @Pt icosahedra, respectively. These icosahedral AuPd@Pd@Pt nanocrystals show substantially enhanced activities and durabilities in electrocatalytic measurements towards ORR compared to Au 75 Pd 25 @Pt icosahedra without Pd interlayer and commercial Pt/C catalysts. Specifically, Au 60 Pd 40 @Pt icosahedra with 6 atomically thick Pd interlayer display the best electrocatalytic performances, whose mass activities before and after durability tests of 50,000 cycles are 11.6 and 30.2 times, respectively, as high as that of the commercial Pt/C.

Graphite carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) and SiC have drawn increasing attention for application in visible light photocatalytic hydrogen evolution by water splitting due to their unique band structure and high physicochemical stability. Herein, a g-C 3 N 4 -SiC heterojunction with loaded noble metal is constructed. The g-C 3 N 4 -SiC-Pt composite photocatalysts are successfully prepared by the combination method of bio-reduction, sol deposition, and calcination. The layers of g-C 3 N 4 are thinned, and both SiC and Pt nanoparticles are simultaneously tightly bound to g-C 3 N 4 by calcination during the preparation of g-C 3 N 4 -SiC-Pt. The heterojunction formed at the interface of SiC and g-C 3 N 4 enhances the separation efficiency of the photogenerated electron–hole pairs. These composite photocatalysts achieve a high hydrogen evolution rate of 595.3 μmol h −1 g −1 with 1 wt% of deposited Pt, which is 3.7- and 2.07-fold higher than those of g-C 3 N 4 -bulk and g-C 3 N 4 -SiC under visible light irradiation with a quantum efficiency of 2.76% at 420 nm, respectively.

Pt@Cu-ZSM-5@CuO x catalyst was constructed for the catalytic oxidation of acetonitrile (AN), which achieved a complete mineralization rate and more than 95 % N 2 selectivity within 300–450 °C. Characterization results revealed that the satisfactory synergistic action of hydrolysis and oxidation pathways was well achieved. The NO x release from CN oxidation reaction on out-layer CuO x species and NH x species over-oxidation over Pt sites could be eliminated by NH 3 from CN hydrolysis reaction on Cu ions via internal selective catalytic reduction mechanism. The deep oxidation of carbon-containing intermediates (such as CO etc.) during CN decomposition over Cu species effectively occurred over Pt site. The encapsulation of Pt inner ZSM-5 zeolite not only strengthened low-temperature mineralization rate compared to Cu/ZSM-5 sample, but also inhibited NO x release caused by over-oxidation of AN at an elevated temperature with co-impregnation of Pt species over Cu/ZSM-5. This work provided a viable strategy for designing catalysts to effective abatement of NVOCs.

Photothermal CO 2 oxidative dehydrogenation of propane (CO 2 -ODHP) is an environmentally friendly and sustainable route for propylene production and CO 2 utilization. In the present work, we developed a Pt-GaN/SrTiO 3 dual-functional catalyst to facilitate the reaction. The catalyst achieved propylene and CO yields of 1 mmol·g cat -1 ·h -1 and 1.2 mmol·g cat -1 ·h -1 under photothermal conditions at 320 °C, surpassing the performance of previously reported catalysts. Additionally, control experiments and in situ DRIFTS analyses corroborated that GaN and Pt were primarily responsible for the activation of C-H and C O bonds, respectively, and the photothermal route worked via a distinguished intermediate for CO 2 activation in contrast to the thermal route. DFT calculations supported the reaction route involving the coupling direct dehydrogenation of propane and reverse water-gas shift reaction. The present work shines a light on the design of photothermal catalysts with dual functions, particularly for the activation of CO 2 and light hydrocarbons. Additionally, it proposes a strategy to initiate high-temperature reactions at relatively lower temperatures.

Glycolic acid (GA), a versatile compound widely used in pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and biodegradable polymers, requires efficient and sustainable synthesis methods to meet industrial demands. This study investigates the selective oxidation of glycolaldehyde (GD) and ethylene glycol (EG) to GA over a carbon-supported platinum (Pt/C) catalyst under alkali-free conditions. Complete GD conversion with exceptional GA selectivity (99.8%) was achieved under mild conditions (30 °C, 2.5 MPa air), while EG oxidation exhibited moderate conversion (∼60%) with >90% GA selectivity. Kinetic analysis revealed distinct oxygen pressure dependencies: GD oxidation exhibited strong oxygen sensitivity, as oxygen adsorption and activation were rate-determining, whereas EG oxidation was predominantly governed by substrate concentration due to the oxygen saturation on the Pt/C surface. Mechanistic studies identified GD as a key intermediate in EG oxidation, with overoxidation pathways limiting GA selectivity at higher temperatures and concentrations. Catalyst characterization demonstrated high Pt dispersion, stable surface chemistry, and structural durability, contributing to its superior performance. This work provides a green, efficient pathway for GA production, offering valuable insights into catalyst design and process optimization for sustainable chemical manufacturing.

Separation and recycling of noble metal nanoparticles after catalytic reaction is critical to promote its application efficiency and cut down the cost. This work presents a facile synthesis strategy for the fabrication of sandwich-like MIL-100(Fe)@Pt@MIL-100(Fe) (denoted as S-Pt) nanoparticles with high stability and improved catalytic activity for hydrogenation of nitrophenol. MIL-100(Fe) acts as both carrier to make the catalyst easily separated and shield to protect the tiny Pt nanoparticles from leaching or aggregation during reaction. Moreover, mass transfer effect of the porous MIL-100(Fe) with its pore structure serving as nano-reactor is also benefit for promoting the catalytic efficiency.

Pt-based catalysts have attracted widespread attention in environmental protection applications, especially in the catalytic destruction of light alkane pollutants. However, developing a satisfying platinum catalyst with high activity, excellent water-resistance, and practical suitability for hydrocarbon combustion at low temperature is challenging. In this study, the Pt catalyst supported on the selected Nb2O5 oxide exhibited an efficient catalytic activity in propane oxidation and exceeded that of most catalysts reported in the literature. More importantly, the Pt/Nb2O5 catalyst maintained excellent activity and durability even after high-temperature aging at 700 °C and under harsh working conditions, such as a certain degree of moisture, high space velocity, and composite pollutants. The excellent performance of the Pt/Nb2O5 catalyst was attributed to the abundant metallic Pt species stabilized on the surface of Nb2O5, which prompted the C–H bond dissociation ability as the rate-determining step. Furthermore, propane was initially activated via oxidehydrogenation and followed the acrylate species path as a more efficient propane oxidation path on the Pt/Nb2O5 surface. Overall, Pt/Nb2O5 can be considered a promising catalyst for the catalytic oxidation of alkanes from industrial sources and could provide inspiration for designing superb catalysts for the oxidation of light alkanes.

Utilizing solar energy to convert carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) into chemical fuels could simultaneously mitigate the greenhouse effect and fossil fuel crisis. Herein, a heterogeneous photocatalyst of ZnO nanofiber deposited by Pt nanoparticles was successfully synthesized toward photocatalytic CO 2 reduction via radio-frequency thermal plasma and photo-deposition method. The Pt nanoparticles were introduced on the surface of ZnO nanofibers to broaden the light absorption and utilization, increase the additional reaction active sites and facilitate the separation of photo-generated electron/hole pairs. Combined with the natural advantages of short transfer path of charge carriers and self-support effecting in humid reaction environment for nanofibers, the Pt/ZnO hetero-junction nanocomposites displayed superior photocatalytic activity for CO 2 reduction with respect to bare ZnO nanofibers, affording a CO-production rate as high as 45.76 μmol g −1 h −1 under 300 W Xe lamp irradiation within a gas–solid reaction system. Furthermore, in-suit Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra were applied to unveil the details during photocatalytic CO 2 reduction. This work presents a hetero-junction nanocomposite photocatalyst based on eco-friendly semiconductor and metal materials.

Piezocatalysis presents an innovative catalytic technique that utilizes the piezoelectric properties of catalysts to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, thereby driving chemical processes. While various methods for driving piezocatalytic reactions have been developed, there is a notable absence of comprehensive research on piezocatalytic performance across multiple methods. In this context, this study explores the potential of (1- x )Pb(Ni 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 - x PbTiO 3 (PNN-PT) based catalysts as efficient piezocatalysts using both ultrasonic vibration and ball milling . The optimal reaction rate constants of the PNN-PT piezocatalyst under ultrasonic vibration and ball milling are found to be 0.0775 min −1 and 0.0265 min −1 , respectively. Notably, PNN-PT-based catalysts exhibit outstanding catalytic activity up to ultra-high substrate concentrations (65 mg/L), suggesting possible industrial applications. The exploration of the reaction mechanism indicates that •OH is the main reactive radical, the catalytic reaction activity demonstrates a direct relationship with •OH quenching, and the high •OH generation rate of PNN-PT further illustrated their suitability as environmental purification catalysts.

Sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) is widely identified as a promising hydrogen storage material, therefore, developing a catalyst with high efficiency for hydrogen production is an important subject for development and utilization of hydrogen energy. Meanwhile the hydrolytic mechanism of NaBH 4 needs further study which is helpful for hydrolysis researches. In this study, an efficient catalyst comprising of carbon nanospheres (CNSs) supporting ultrafine bimetallic Pt-Co nanoparticles (CNSs@Pt 0.1 Co 0.9 ) has been successfully synthesized for hydrogen evolution from NaBH 4 hydrolysis. The growth of the Pt-Co nanoparticles on the surface of CNSs is regulated by adjustment of solvent during the preparation. The as-prepared CNSs@Pt 0.1 Co 0.9 catalyst exhibits an outstanding performance in the kinetic and thermodynamic tests with the highest hydrogen generation rate (HGR) of 8943 mL H2 ·min −1 ·g M –1 , initial turnover frequency (TOF) value of 280.1 moL H2 ·min −1 ·mol Pt –1 , and a low activation energy ( E a ) of 38.0 kJ·mol −1 . The hydrolytic mechanism has been surveyed simultaneously by the isotopic tracer method through the mass spectrometric analysis. The catalyst retains extremely high catalytic activity value and the hydrogen generation conversion is still 100% even after five cycles in the catalytic performance tests.

We designed an amplified detection strategy for the sensitive determination of lead ions (Pb 2+ ) based on a target-triggered nuclear acid cleavage of Pb 2+ -specific DNAzyme as a selectivity interface combined with Pd-Pt alloys modified Fe-MOFs (Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs) hybrids acting as the signal tag. Streptavidin modified reduced graphene oxide-tetraethylene pentamine-gold nanoparticles (rGO-TEPA-Au) served as a sensor platform for immobilizing more DNAzyme. In the presence of Pb 2+ , the substrate DNA strand can be specifically cleaved at the ribonucleotide site by DNAzyme to produce a new single-DNA on the interface. Then, the hairpin DNA with hybrid strand matched by its complement to the single-DNA was employed to modify the Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs bioconjugates for signal amplification . Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) to produce the electrochemical signal which was recorded by chronoamperometry . Benefiting from the Pb 2+ -dependent DNAzyme, the proposed method can selectively detect Pb 2+ in the presence of other metal ions . The newly designed biosensor exhibited a good linear relationship ranging from 0.005 to 1000 nmol L −1 with a low detection limit of 2 pM (S/N = 3) for Pb 2+ . This Pb 2+ -dependent DNAzyme based ultrasensitive biosensor showed high sensitivity and selectivity, providing potential application for Pb 2+ detection in naturally contaminated sewage and spiked drinking water samples.
