Despite cobalt molybdenum sulfide (CoMoS 4 )-based materials are a prospective class of electrode material for supercapacitors , their relatively inferior rate capability and cyclic stability have severely restricted practical applications. Engineering multicomponent binder-free electrode material is deemed an effective approach to fulfill the demand of high-performance supercapacitors. Herein, the hierarchical core-shell hollow CoMoS 4 @Ni–Co–S nanotubes supported on flexible carbon cloth are designed through a scalable hydrothermal method combined with electrodeposition process. Due to the synergistic contribution of highly conductive CoMoS 4 nanotubes core and highly active nickel cobalt sulfide nanosheets shell, the 3D hierarchical CoMoS 4 @Ni–Co–S nanotubes electrode achieves a remarkable specific capacitance of 2208.5 F g −1 at a rate of 1 A g −1 and extraordinary cycling life (91.3% capacitance retention over 5000 cycles at 3 A g −1 ). Moreover, the assembled CoMoS 4 @Ni–Co–S//activated carbon (AC) asymmetric supercapacitor presents satisfactory electrochemical performance, delivering an energy density of 49.1 W h kg −1 at a high power density of 800 W kg −1 and competitive cyclic stability (90.3% retention of initial capacity after 10000 cycles). This work designs an effective synthetic route and validates the potential prospects of binder-free 3D hierarchical architecture for developing high-performance and advanced energy storage devices.

Water oxidation plays a pivotal role in energy conversion and storage such as in water splitting and metal-air batteries. The development of a highly active and stable electrode for water oxidation at a low price is greatly challenging. Here, we report a self-supported oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrode with a 3D porous Ni foam (NF) as a core and a dense layer of amorphous phosphorus-doped Ni hydroxide (Ni–OH/P) film as a shell. This facilely fabricated 3D core–shell structured electrode with directly grown active materials offered improved activity and prolonged stability for OER. It required an overpotential of 490 mV to deliver a current density of 100 mA cm−2; it showed a small Tafel slope at 87 mV dec−1 and sustained elongated electrolysis at 100 mA cm−2 for 100 h. The NiOOH shell was in situ formed on the surface of the Ni–OH/P film. Then, a new core–shell structured film was constructed. The synergetic effects of the newly formed crystalline NiOOH shell and amorphous Ni–OH/P core contributed to high stability under harsh conditions. This work presents a facile and easy scale-up path to develop self-supported hybrid electrodes for efficient and stable energy conversion and storage.

Blending porous inorganic fillers into polymers to fabricate mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) is an efficient method to acquire good-quality membranes for CO2 separation and purification. The poor interface coupling between bulky filling particles and polymer phase in MMMs results in reduced mechanical strengths with low separation performances. The novel two-dimensional (2D) and ultrathin α-Ni(im)2 nanosheets with high aspect ratios are herein synthesized and blended with Pebax MH 1657 to prepare MMMs. The larger contacting area and strong hydrogen bonding between α-Ni(im)2 nanosheets and Pebax improve their compatibility to form defect-free MMMs. The ultrathin α-Ni(im)2 nanosheets in MMMs can effectively enhance CO2/CH4 selectivity based on molecular sieving. With the addition of 2 wt % of α-Ni(im)2 nanosheets, the as-prepared MMMs exhibit CO2/CH4 selectivity up to 33.4 with a permeability of 100.6 Barrer. Compared with pure Pebax membrane, the separation selectivity shows a 72% increase with no significant change in CO2 permeability.

Two novel Salen-DPCPs metal complexes (Salen-DPCP-1 and Salen-DPCP-2), containing both Salen-Schiff base (Salen), phenyl phosphate structures (DPCP) and nickel component, were prepared to reduce fire hazards of epoxy resin (EP). The results showed that 5 wt % addition of Salen-DPCP-1 brought a higher flame-retardant efficiency to the EP, where the V-0 rating in UL-94 burning test and 31.5% of limiting oxygen index (LOI) were achieved. Meanwhile, total heat release, total smoke production, and total CO yield dramatically decreased by 28.1, 23.6, and 21.4%. In addition, these results basically reappeared when Salen-DPCP-2 were introduced into EP to obtain Salen-DPCP-2/EP composites. Chemical structure and morphology characterization of the carbon residue confirmed that Salen-DPCPs improved the catalytic charring ability and the noncombustible gas releasing ability by the Fourier transform infrared, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Scanning electron microscopy technology. Therefore, it is an efficient strategy to develop novel Salen composites modified by flame-retardant groups to improve the fire rating of polymers. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Abstract Some kinds of the plate-like hexagonal layered double complex hydroxides (named Ni-Fe-Sr-LDHs) materials were prepared for energy storage electrodes in this work. It showed good properties with energy densities and cycle life through the electrochemical tests. At 1 A g −1 current density, the specific capacitance of the electrode reached 311.02 F g −1 when the electrolyte was 6 M LiOH. In the long cycle test, the capacitance retention of the electrode maintained at 73.16% after 2000 cycles (current density: 1 A g −1 ). The morphologies of Ni-Fe-Sr-LDHs were characterized via the scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscopy and x-ray powder diffraction. The prepared layered double hydroxides were further optimized by doping carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The optimal weight ratio of Ni-Fe-Sr-LDHs to CNTs was 3:1. The specific capacitance in the measurement of galvanostatic charge–discharge increased to 438.74 F g −1 , and the stability of long-term cycling was raised to 77.45%. These results indicated that Ni-Fe-Sr-LDHs combined with CNTs would be an ideal electrode material for practical energy storage. Graphic Abstract

In spite of the TiO 2 compact layer (TCL) being widely used, it still needs more study. This paper took Ni-doped TCLs as the research target, using an innovative two-step method perfectly prepared Ni-doped TCLs with different thicknesses. And then on the basis of Ni-doped TCLs, the TiO 2 nanorod array (TNA) films were successfully prepared. The effects of Ni-doped TCLs with different thicknesses on the morphology, structure, and photoelectric performance of TNA films were investigated. The results indicated that Ni-doped TCLs with appropriate thickness can significantly improve performance of TNA films and obtain satisfactory PCE stability with time. Compared with the TNA films based on Ni:TCL5, Ni:TCL10, and Ni:TCL30, the TNA film with Ni:TCL20 exhibited better comprehensive photoelectric performance, the DSSCs based on this TNA film achieved the highest J sc (10.191 mA cm −2 ), V oc (0.574 V), PCE (4.42%), and the most excellent PCE stability with time.

Presence of unsaturated bonds and halogen-containing groups is the most common characteristic of toxic and harmful environmental pollutants. Herein, catalytic hydrogenation was chosen as a water quality control method for such contaminants. Considering the safety, availability and activity of the hydrogen source, electrochemical in situ hydrogen generation was introduced. Under the combined action of Raney Ni (R-Ni) and nascent hydrogen (Nas-H 2 ), three compounds (50 mg L −1 , 90 ml), i.e., acrylamide, 2, 6-dibromo-4-nitrophenol and 2-chloro-4-fluorobenzonitrile achieved complete hydrogenation reduction in a short time. The improved system realized the quantitative consumption of hydrogen source and the efficient operation of hydrogenation reaction under mild conditions. Additionally, the alkaline environment formed by hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) avoided secondary pollution caused by catalyst dissolution. Atomic hydrogen (H·) produced from R-Ni and Nas-H 2 was the active free radical of the reaction. The hydrogenation activities of different functional groups were obtained according to the following order: Ph-NO 2 ＞ -C = C- ＞ Ph-C≡N ＞ Ph-Br ＞ Ph-Cl ＞ Ph-F. This work indicates that the catalytic hydrogenation system consisting of R-Ni and Nas-H 2 is a promising technology to reduce unsaturated bonds and halogen-containing groups.

As one of the most efficient, low-cost, and readily available electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline environments, the nickel-iron electrocatalyst is of great significance to commercial water splitting. In this study, NiFe-layered double hydroxide loaded on nickel foam (NiFe-LDH/NF) was synthesized via a simple one-step hydrothermal method , whose OER catalytic performance could be successfully optimized by further electrochemical reconstruction. The results show that NF is an effective precursor to loading crystallized Ni(OH) 2 nanoparticles during hydrothermal synthesis, leading to the generation of high-performance NiOOH during OER reconstruction. Under the optimal Ni:Fe feeding ratio, Ni 2 Fe 1 -LDH/NF requires an ultra-low OER overpotential of 239 mV at 50 mA cm −2 and 260 mV at 100 mA cm −2 , whose Tafel slope is only 64.1 mV dec −1 . Impressively, Ni 2 Fe 1 -LDH/NF also achieves an ultra-low voltage of 1.44 V at 10 mA cm −2 with excellent long-term stability for overall water splitting. Unlike the previous viewpoint that only Ni species dominate surface reconstruction of NiFe-LDH, in this article the decisive influence related to Fe species on the reconstruction layers’ activity and stability is confirmed by electrochemistry, Raman, and XPS analysis during reconstruction process. During OER reconstruction, the surface Ni:Fe ratios can be "self-adaptively" regulated to an appropriate region, thus the stable reconstruction layers rich in NiOOH can be formed as the protective shells for NiFe-LDH. Furthermore, such "self-adaptive" reconstruction, assisted with appropriate initial Ni:Fe feeding ratios, can also stimulate more Ni 3+ active sites for OER, benefitting the outstanding catalytic performance of NiFe-LDH/NF for overall water splitting and prospective large-scale application.

For the efficient removal of the bio-refractory organic pollutants in the electronic industry wastewater, the Ni–Fe (oxides) modified three-dimension (3D) particle electrode was applied in electro-Fenton system (3D/EF), where iron ions were released from anode and deposited onto algal biochar (ABC) to prepare composite catalyst during reaction process. Firstly, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis were applied to confirm successful fabrication of the 3D particle electrode materials . Secondly, COD removal efficiency could reach about 80%, which was about 20% higher than that in 2D/EF system, under the optimized conditions as 2.0 g/L of Ni-ABC particle electrodes, initial pH of 3, 100 mL/min of aeration intensity and 20 mA/cm 2 of applied current density. Thirdly, characterized using three-dimensional fluorescence spectroscopy and GC-MS analysis, it seemed that most of the macromolecular substances could be degraded, whereas mono-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (MEHP) was identified as the most abundant and representative compound. Finally, possible degradation pathway of MEHP in 3D/EF system was proposed including dealkylation, cleavage of C–O bond, and demethylation. Therefore, this study provides a new strategy in designing EF system employing bimetal doped biochar composite for an efficient elimination of organic pollutants within electronic industry wastewater.

Low-cost and resourceful transition metal phosphides (TMPs), as a new kind of pseudocapacitive materials, have received considerable interest for electrochemical energy storage/conversion. Combination of TMPs and carbon nanostructures is supposed to greatly improve the charge storage capability due to the synergistic effect. In this work, nickel cobalt phosphides nanosheets supported by P doped C spheres (P-CSs@Ni-Co-P NSs) composites with different Ni/Co molar ratios (1:0, 1:1, 1:2, 1:4 and 0:1) were prepared by in-situ bifunctional phosphorization of the as-synthesized CSs@Ni-Co-OH NSs precursor. The optimized 3D networked mesoporous P-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs electrode exhibits a remarkable specific capacitance of 1040.3 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 and excellent rate capability with a capacitance retention of 49.2% even at 30 A g −1 , which are much higher than those of A-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -O NSs (870.5 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 , 37.4% at 30 A g −1 ) and Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs (500.5 F g −1 at 1 A g −1 , 40.0% at 30 A g −1 ). The improved supercapacitive performances are attributed to the 3D mesoporous nanosheets network and bifunctional phosphorization treatment which lead to enhancement of conductivity. Meanwhile, Ni-Co bimetallic phosphide with abundant oxidation states facilitates redox charge transfer efficiently. Furthermore, P-CSs@Ni 1 -Co 2 -P NSs assembled asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC) achieve outstanding cycling stability with no decay of capacitance after 20000 cycles. Additionally, the charge storage kinetic of the device is further investigated, indicating that fast surface-control capacitive behavior is dominant at high current densities.

Tackling the problem of poor conductivity and catalytic stability of pristine metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) is crucial to improve their oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance. Herein, we introduce a novel strategy of dysprosium (Dy) doping, using the unique 4 f orbitals of this rare earth element to enhance electrocatalytic activity of MOFs. Our method involves constructing Dy-doped Ni-MOF (Dy@Ni-MOF) nanoneedles on carbon cloth via a Dy-induced valence electronic perturbation approach. Experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that Dy doping can effectively modify the electronic structure of the Ni active centers and foster a strong electronic interaction between Ni and Dy. The resulting benefits include a reduced work function and a closer proximity of the d -band center to the Fermi level, which is conducive to improving electrical conductivity and promoting the adsorption of oxygen-containing intermediates. Furthermore, the Dy@Ni-MOF achieves superhydrophilicity, ensuring effective electrolyte contact and thus accelerating reaction kinetics. Ex-situ and in-situ analysis results manifest Dy 2 O 3 /NiOOH as the actual active species. Therefore, Dy@Ni-MOF shows impressive OER performance, significantly surpassing Ni-MOF. Besides, the overall water splitting device with Dy@Ni-MOF as an anode delivers a low cell voltage of 1.51 V at 10 mA cm −2 and demonstrates long-term stability for 100 h, positioning it as a promising substitute for precious metal catalysts.

The balancing of the electrochemical performance, mechanical stability, and processing technology for applying supercapacitors to flexible and wearable electronics continues to encounter severe challenges. Herein, we prepare Ni–Co–Mn hydroxide electrodes with a three-dimensional multichannel structure via a simple hydrothermal method. These are constructed using vertically contiguous nanosheets with a uniform thickness and rough surface. The electrodes can provide numerous electroactive sites and accelerate the transmission of electrolyte ions. The relationship between the structure and electrochemical performances is verified by experiments and theoretical calculations. Two-dimensional (2D) planar and one-dimensional (1D) fiber electrodes are prepared using a flexible carbon cloth (CC) and carbon fiber (CF), respectively, as substrates. The assembled quasi-solid-state flexible asymmetric supercapacitor (FASC) with a two-dimensional sandwich structure using NiCoMn–OH/CC as the electrode achieves a remarkable energy density of 73.8 Wh·kg −1 at a power density of 1.03 kW·kg −1 . The quasi-solid–state FASC with a 1D linear structure using NiCoMn–OH/CF as the electrode also attains a high energy density (12.9 Wh·kg −1 at a power density of 0.75 W·kg −1 ). Moreover, the electrochemical performances of the NiCoMn/CC//AC/CC and NiCoMn/CF//AC/CF FASCs are not disturbed at different bending angles (0°, 45°, 90°, 135° and 180°). This indicates the superior flexibility of the devices. We also assemble a self-powered energy-harvesting storage system by integrating FASCs and commercial solar cells to verify its practicability. It displays sustainable development potential for energy storage. Graphical abstract
