The development of microwave absorbing materials with strong absorption capacity, wide bandwidth and light weight has always been a topic of concern. Herein, one-dimensional (1D) M (Co, Ni)@polyaniline (PANI) nanochains (NCs) with adjustable thickness have been successfully synthesized by reducing the mental ions under a parallel magnetic field, pretreating metal nanochains with KH550 and pre-oxidization of aniline monomer. It is found that Co has a more favorable absorption width for electromagnetic waves (EMW) and Ni aims at the absorption intensity. Furthermore, the effect of metal elements on adjusting impedance matching is more significant than their magnetic loss for composites. The minimum reflection loss (RLmin) of CoP2 can be up to −73.16 dB at 4.63 mm and the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) is 4.98 GHz at 2.17 mm, while those of NiP2 are −65.06 dB at 3.88 mm and 5.02 GHz at 2.05 mm. The increase of PANI content can significantly reduce the matching thickness. And the RLmin of CoP3 and NiP3 can reach −58.72 dB at 2.32 mm and −65.96 dB at 1.59 mm, respectively. The absorption mechanism reveals that the matching thickness of the quarter-wavelength determines frequency location. And high absorption intensity is attributed to the synergistic effects of impedance matching, conduction loss, polarization loss, and magnetic loss. This work provides a theoretical basis for designing PANI or other conducting polymers coating magnetic nanochains for electromagnetic absorbing materials with strong absorption capacity, wide bandwidth and light weight.

Ni(II) meso-tetraphenylporphyrin (NiTPP) is a model molecule whose substituent causes out-of-plane (oop) deformations of the porphyrin macrocycle. Although the conformers of NiTPP in the solution had been tentatively explored, the determination of its specific conformers was controversial. In this work, based on the conformational search through molecular dynamics (MD), three energy lowest-lying conformers of NiTPP were sorted out, namely, the S 4 (staggered) conformer, the C 2 (eclipsed) conformer, and the C 1 (eclipsed-staggered) conformer. According to the high-precision free energy calculation based on density functional theory (DFT), the Raman and 1 H-NMR spectra of the three conformers were calculated. The actual spectra of NiTPP in solution resulted from the sum spectra of the mixture conformers, so with the consideration of the corresponding conformation weights, the experimental spectra could be stimulated. Our results showed that only at the low-frequency ∼215 cm −1 , did the Raman spectrum in solution differ significantly from that in solid powder. On the other hand, the 1 H-NMR spectra of the NiTPP conformers were remarkably different, and none of the single conformer's 1 H-NMR range could match the experimental 1 H-NMR spectrum. However, with the consideration of the existence of three dominant conformations, the observed 1 H-NMR spectrum could be well simulated, confirming the rational mixture of the three dominant conformers existing in the aqueous solution. Therefore, this work has not only resolved the different conformers of NiTPP in solution, but also provided an effective approach to combining DFT, Raman, and 1 H-NMR analytical tools for identifying different oop conformations of metalloporphyrins in solution.

The bimetallic nanoparticles compositing of Ni-rich core and Cu-rich shell (Ni/Cu NPs) were successfully synthesized by a liquid-phase thermal decomposition method. The content of copper and nickel in Ni/Cu NPs was controllable by adjusting the ratio of two metal precursors, copper formate (Cuf) and nickel acetate tetrahydrate (Ni(OAc) 2 ∙4H 2 O). Ni/Cu NPs were further anchored on graphene oxide (GO) to prepare a magnetic composite catalyst, called Ni/Cu-GO. The dispersibility of Ni/Cu NPs in solution was enhanced by GO anchoring to prevent the sintering and aggregation during the reaction process, thereby ensuring the catalytic and cycling performance of the catalyst. The catalytic transfer hydrogenation (CTH) reaction of nitroaromatics was investigated when ammonia borane was used as the hydrogen source. Cu dominated the main catalytic role in the reaction, while Ni played a synergistic role of catalysis and providing magnetic properties for separation. The Ni 7 /Cu 3 -GO catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance with the conversion and yield of 99% and 96%, respectively, when 2-methyl-5-nitrophenol was used as the substrate. The Ni 7 /Cu 3 -GO catalyst also exhibited excellent cyclic catalytic performance with the 5-amino-2-methylphenol yield of above 90% after six cycles. In addition, the Ni 7 /Cu 3 -GO catalyst could be quickly recycled by magnetic separation. Moreover, the Ni 7 /Cu 3 -GO catalyst showed good catalytic performance for halogen-containing nitroaromatics without dehalogenation.

Cotton stalk was gasified to produce H 2 with Ni-La based catalysts in subcritical and supercritical water. Approximately 90% H 2 yield was obtained under optimized conditions (360 °C, 0.5 g Ni-La catalyst loading, 0.5 g biomass and 10 min) by an orthogonal design with Ni-La/spent bleaching clay (SBC) materials. In addition, the H 2 yield of rice and wheat straw increased by 41.5 and 39.5 times, respectively at optimized conditions. It was found that the activity of Ni-La materials supported on SBC ash and Al 2 O 3 was similar, with H 2 yields of 108.3% and 115.1% at 380 °C, respectively in 5 min. SBC ash provided a high specific surface area (94.4 m 2 /g) for the Ni-La catalyst. La-promoted Ni/SBC (0.19 mmol/g) had a stronger acidity than Ni/SBC (0.16 mmol/g). Ni-La/SBC had a broad reduction peak, indicating the uniform dispersion of Ni on the support. Ni-La/SBC materials not only realized the reuse of SBC but also effectively promoted the hydrothermal gasification of agricultural wastes .

The efficient utilization of lignin remains a great challenge due to its complex nonrepetitive structure and the lack of efficient catalyst. Herein, a single-atom catalyst Ni@N-C was designed via a facile chelation-anchored strategy. Ni atoms were immobilized on the N-doped carbon carrier by a two-stage pyrolysis of a mixture of d -glucosamine hydrochloride, nickel acetate, and melamine. d -glucosamine hydrochloride as a chelating agent prevented the aggregation of Ni 2+ , and melamine provided enough N to anchor Ni by forming Ni–N 4 structure. Ni@N-C gave a 31.2% yield of aromatic compounds from lignin hydrogenolysis, which was twice higher than that achieved by Ni cluster catalyst. Based on the experimental and density functional theory (DFT) calculation results, the higher activity of Ni@N-C was attributed to its lower H 2 dissociation energy and the reduced energy barriers of the transition states. The strategy described opens an efficient green avenue for preparing single-atom catalyst that possesses outstanding activity in lignin depolymerization.

Methane reforming with carbon dioxide (DRM) is one promising way to achieve carbon neutrality and convert methane to syngas for high-value chemical production. Catalyst development with better performance is the key to its potential large-scale industrial application due to its deactivation caused by carbon deposition and metal sintering. Hence, a Ni/CeO2catalyst (Ni/CeO2-M) with higher CO2conversion and better stability is prepared, supported on CeO2precipitated via a novel microimpinging stream reactor. A series of ex-situ or in-situ characterizations, such as CO titration measurements, two-step transient surface reaction (two-step TSR), CO2and CH4temperature-programmed surface reaction (CO2-TPSR and CH4-TPSR), X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS), and in-situ Raman spectroscopy study, were used to investigate its structure and mechanism. In contrast to Ni supported on commercial CeO2(Ni/CeO2-C), the Ni/CeO2-M catalyst with stronger lattice oxygen mobility and higher oxygen storage capacity enhances its CO2activation ability and carbon deposition. The Ni particle size of the Ni/CeO2-M catalyst decreased, and a higher oxidation state was obtained due to the strong metal–support interaction. Besides the reaction performance improvement of the Ni/CeO2-M catalyst, the novel microimpinging stream reactor could achieve catalyst continuous production with a high preparation efficiency. This work provides a novel method for the high-performance catalyst preparation for DRM reaction and its mechanism study gives a deep insight into high-performance catalyst development via bottom-up study.Keywords:dry reforming of methane;oxygen vacancy;Ni/CeO2catalyst

L-tryptophan (Trp) is an essential amino acid for humans and plays crucial roles in many metabolic functions. Trp levels can be used for diagnosing different kinds of metabolic disorders and the symptoms associated with those diseases. Herein, a novel, simple and sensitive sensor based on 3D peony-like bimetallic conductive MOFs (Co–Ni-MOFs) was fabricated for the electrochemical determination of Trp. The bimetallic conductive MOFs were synthesized by a facile one-pot hydrothermal process. On account of the synergy between the Ni 2+ and Co 2+ ions, the bimetallic Co–Ni-MOFs showed excellent electrochemical performance, including good conductivity, large effective surface areas, and high electrocatalytic reactivity toward the oxidation of Trp. Consequently, the Co–Ni-MOFs-modified electrodes obtained a wide linear range from 10 nmol L −1 to 300 μmol L −1 and a low detection limit of 8.7 nmol L −1 (S/N = 3) for Trp. Additionally, the prepared sensor also displayed high selectivity, long-term stability and reproducibility. Moreover, the proposed sensor was successfully applied to determine the levels of Trp in the plasma of mice after cadmium intoxication.

In this study, a low-cost biomass charcoal (BC)-based nickel catalyst (Ni/BC) was introduced into the MgH 2 system by ball-milling. The study demonstrated that the Ni/BC catalyst significantly improved the hydrogen desorption and absorption kinetics of MgH 2 . The MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni/BC-3 composite starts to release hydrogen at 187.8 °C, which is 162.2 °C lower than the initial dehydrogenation temperature of pure MgH 2 . Besides, 6.04 wt% dehydrogenation can be achieved within 3.5 min at 300 °C. After the dehydrogenation is completed, MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni/BC-3 can start to absorb hydrogen even at 30 °C, which achieved the absorption of 5 wt% H 2 in 60 min under the condition of 3 MPa hydrogen pressure and 125 °C. The apparent activation energies of dehydrogenation and hydrogen absorption of MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni/BC-3 composites were 82.49 kJ/mol and 23.87 kJ/mol lower than those of pure MgH 2 , respectively, which indicated that the carbon layer wrapped around MgH 2 effectively improved the cycle stability of hydrogen storage materials. Moreover, MgH 2 + 10 wt% Ni/BC-3 can still maintain 99% hydrogen storage capacity after 20 cycles. XRD, EDS , SEM and TEM revealed that the Ni/BC catalyst evenly distributed around MgH 2 formed Mg 2 Ni/Mg 2 NiH 4 in situ, which act as a “hydrogen pump” to boost the diffusion of hydrogen along with the Mg/MgH 2 interface. Meanwhile, the carbon layer with fantastic conductivity enormously accelerated the electron transfer . Consequently, there is no denying that the synergistic effect extremely facilitated the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetic performance of MgH 2 .

The Ni-rich LiNixMnyCozO2 (x + y + z = 1, x > 0.5, Ni-rich NMC) materials are one of the most potential cathodes for high energy density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their high specific capacity and relatively low cost. However, performances of LIBs with the Ni-rich NCM cathode below 0 °C are restricted by low ion conductivity of the electrolyte and a slow ion diffusion rate at the electrode–electrolyte interphase. Here, γ-butyrolactone (GBL) with a low melting point and high ion conductivity is used to partially replace ethylene carbonate, which is conducive to lower the freezing point and increase the low-temperature ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, and the addition of GBL improves the dissolution of lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate (LiDFOB) in a traditional carbonate solvent. Instead of lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), LiDFOB can form a F-, B-, and O-rich interfacial phase at the Ni-rich NCM cathode, suppressing the fatal interface reaction and reducing the interface impedance. As a result, the electrolyte using GBL as the cosolvent and LiDFOB as the lithium salt can significantly improve the specific discharge capacity and cycling stability of LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/Li cells at 0 °C and −30 °C. At 0 °C, the LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/Li cells have a discharge specific capacity of 160 mA h g–1 and a capacity retention rate of 99% over 100 cycles. They deliver a decent capacity at −30 °C. This rational design of an electrolyte via optimizing the combination of a solvent and a lithium salt has been confirmed to be a low cost but rather an effective method to improve the low-temperature performances of LIBs.

Element doping is an excellent strategy to promote charge separation and reaction kinetics of photocatalyst, which plays significant role in accelerating the sustainable energy development process. Herein, Ni, In co-doped ZnIn 2 S 4 photocatalyst was prepared by a microwave-assisted solvothermal method. The rapid crystallization of ZnIn 2 S 4 resulted in partial In atoms substituted Zn atom during the formation of [ZnS] 4 layer. In doping in tetrahedral Zn sites increases the electron delocalization around In sites, hence reduces the electronic potential wells along Z axis. Ni doping in tetrahedral Zn sites decreases the negative charge on the S sits, which balances the H adsorption/desorption, further boosting the photocatalytic activity. As a result, Ni, In co-doped ZnIn 2 S 4 possess an optimal photocatalytic H 2 evolution property of 21.94 μmol·h −1 , which is nearly 1.8 and 6.1 times of In-ZnIn 2 S 4 (11.78 μmol·h −1 ) and ZnIn 2 S 4 (3.6 μmol·h −1 ).

By utilizing polymer-derived ceramics (PDCs) method and electrospinning technology, SiCN(Ni) fibers with 1 wt% nickel content at different calcination temperatures (1000–1300 °C) were synthesized. The properties of PDCs-SiCN(Ni) fibers were tested by XRD , SEM, TEM, Raman spectroscopy , XPS and vector network analyzer. The results showed that the addition of nickel acetylacetonate (NA) promoted the in-situ formation of CNTs and Ni 2 Si at high temperatures, which could adjust the impedance matching performance and improve the electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption properties. The minimum reflection loss (RL) of SiCN(Ni) fibers was −47.55 dB (4.2 mm), and the effective absorption band (EAB, RL ≤ −10 dB) was 3.6 GHz (14.4–18 GHz) under the ultra-thin thickness of 1.24 mm.

High-performance MFI zeolite supported nickel catalysts were prepared by the ammonia evaporation method for maleic anhydride (MA) conversion to γ-butyrolactone (GBL). According to comprehensive characterizations, the Ni catalysts possessed petal-like morphology and hierarchical structures with meso and micro pores. Nickel species were highly dispersed on the silica support and generated abundant Lewis acid sites (LAS), which effectively activated carbonyl groups in the reactant and accounted for the high activity in MA hydrogenation. Zr species hydrothermally introduced into the catalyst increased the number of LAS and decreased the apparent activation energy for the reaction. The highest GBL yield reached 95.6% over 40Ni-2Zr-MFI with the assistance of 3A zeolite to in-situ remove water byproduct. The catalyst showed reasonably good stability in five-cycle operation thanks to the strong interaction between Ni and support. The reaction route for MA hydrogenation was investigated, in which succinic anhydride (SA-A) served as the major reaction intermediate for GBL formation.
