In this paper, a novel bimetallic Ce-Ni metal-organic frameworks (Ce-Ni-MOF) are synthesized by hydrothermal reaction, using 1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid as a ligand. In particular, the bimetallic Ce-Ni-MOF with the largest specific surface area and catalytic sites was synthesized when the molar ratio of Ce 3+ to Ni 2+ was 3:7. Bimetallic Ce-Ni-MOF is added to the traditional conductive material of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) to play their synergistic effect, improve the conductivity, specific surface area, and catalytic site of the MWCNTs. A novel bisphenol A (BPA) sensor was successfully prepared by a self-assembled multilayer strategy of Ce-Ni-MOF/MWCNTs modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCE). Field emission scanning electron microscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscope were carried out to characterize the Ce-Ni-MOF/MWCNTs. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used as a sensitive analytical method for the determination of BPA, and a wider linear dynamic range of BPA determination in 0.1 μmol·L −1 to 100 μmol·L −1 with a detection limit of 7.8 nmol·L −1 (S/ N = 3). The proposed method was applied to measure the content of BPA in different brands of drinking water with satisfying recovery from 97.4 to 102.4%.

GVL (γ-valerolactone) is identified as an important biomass platform molecule due to its wide application. In this work, a series of novel supported Ni catalysts with different supports and Ni loading were synthesized via metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) method for the hydrogenation of EL (ethyl levulinate) to GVL. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), nitrogen adsorption/desorption, inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) were used to characterize the as-synthesized catalysts. The results showed that the 2 wt.% Ni/AC(MOCVD) presented superior catalytic activity when compared with the catalyst prepared by impregnation method. This behavior is explained in terms of the smaller Ni nanoparticles (4.28 nm) and higher dispersion on 2 wt.% Ni/AC(MOCVD). Among the catalysts, the 2 wt.% Ni/AC catalyst exhibited the best catalytic performance with 99.7 % EL conversion and 79.8 % GVL yield under 1 MPa initial H 2 pressure (measured at room temperature) at 250 °C for 2 h. In addition, the reaction conditions were optimized and the stability of the catalyst were also investigated. The insights gained from this study in the design of high dispersed Ni particles with smaller particle size via MOCVD method will facilitate the metal-catalyzed hydrogenation of EL to GVL.

Ternary Ni-Co-P/TiN (20 nm) nanocomposite coatings with Co content in the range of 0–23 wt% were successfully co-deposited on Al alloys by electroless plating. The morphology, composition, microstructure, micro-hardness, wear behavior, and corrosion properties of the coatings were tested using SEM, EDS, XRD, Vickers hardness, ball-on-disc wear tester, and electrochemical workstation, respectively. The effect of Co content on the tribological and corrosion properties of Ni-Co-P/TiN coatings was studied. It is found that all the coatings have a compact and rough granular structure with sub-micro globules non-uniformly distributed on the surface. The grain size and the content of Ni and P decrease, but the micro-hardness, adhesion force, friction coefficient, and corrosion resistance correspondingly enhance with the increase of Co content in Ni-Co-P/TiN coatings. The improved corrosion resistance of Ni-Co-P/TiN coating is due to the passivation behavior and small grain caused by the introduction of Co. Based on the excellent properties on the wear and corrosion resistance, ternary Ni-Co23-P/TiN coating with high Co content, may be applied as an optimum protective coating for Al alloys.

Nickel–Cobalt hydroxide microspheres are electrodepositioned on the films of NiCo 2 O 4 nanowires grown on the current collector through a facile approach and the hierarchical structures are then investigated as an electrode material for high-performance supercapacitors . Owing to the superior electrical conductivity of NiCo 2 O 4 nanowires, the porous structure of the (Ni–Co)(OH) 2 microspheres and the synergic effect of the multi-components, the electrode can deliver a high areal capacitance of 6 F cm −2 and a corresponding specific capacitance of 1132 F g −1 at a current density of 2 mA cm −2 , as well as a good rate capability (61.8% capacitance retention from 2 mA cm −2 to 50 mA cm −2 ), and excellent cycling stability (90% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles). The results suggest that our research opens up the possibility for the fabrication of high-performance energy-storage devices of binder-free electrodes.

In this work, HZSM-5, Al-SBA-15 and Al-SBA-15/HZSM-5 were adopted as supporting materials for the nickel-based catalysts used in hydrodeoxygenation process. Incipient wetness impregnation method was employed to load nickel species onto these materials. The physicochemical characterization was carried out using advanced instruments. The effect of composition of nickel-based catalysts on hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reaction was studied. Support materials of nickel-based catalyst have a significantly impact on HDO activity. The highest selectivity (67.9%) of propyl-cyclohexane was obtained over nickel based Al-SBA-15/HZSM-5 catalyst, and nearly all the eugenol was completely hydrodeoxygenated after reaction. The impact of light fractions existed in bio-oil on phenols upgrading process was investigated. The conversion of eugenol mixed with light fractions reached nearly 100% for all the reactions. Eugenol mixed with light fractions as reactant could reduce ring break reaction during hydrodeoxygenation process. The selectivity of alkanes remained nearly unchanged after adding ethylene glycol into the reactant. However, the selectivity of propyl-cyclohexane was significantly decreased by mixing furfural or acetic acid with eugenol as reactant.

A series of rutile TiO2-supported Ni catalysts with varying Ni sizes were prepared and reduced at 650 °C to explore the effect of Ni size on the strong metal–support interactions (SMSI) and its consequences on the hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) of m-cresol at 350 °C and atmospheric pressure. When the Ni size increases from 4 to 29.1 nm, the SMSI becomes stronger, e.g., the thickness of the TiOxoverlayer and the coverage extent of TiOxon the Ni particle surface increase. Direct deoxygenation to toluene is the dominant pathway on Ni/TiO2catalysts with varying Ni loadings, with almost no CH4being formed. These results indicate that the TiOxoverlayer significantly alters the property of Ni. That is, the C-C hydrogenolysis activity on bare Ni is completely inhibited due to SMSI, while the deoxygenation activity is improved at the Ni-TiOxinterfacial perimeter sites. Meanwhile, the turnover frequency of HDO on small Ni particles of 4 nm is > 2 times higher than that on large Ni particles of 29.1 nm, indicating that the small Ni particle with moderate SMSI appears to be optimal for the direct deoxygenation of m-cresol to toluene. The results suggest HDO activity may be enhanced by tuning the metal particle size and SMSI degree.Keywords:Ni/TiO2;rutile;strong metal-support interactions;m-cresol;hydrodeoxygenation

The efficient conversion of renewable biogas has attracted ever-increasing interest in past decades. Ni-CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 supported on monolithic SiC-foam (denoted as Ni/CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 /SCF) is designed and applied in biogas reforming. The monolithic Ni/CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 /SCF catalysts were deeply characterized by XRD, ICP-AES, SEM, HR-TEM, CO 2 -TPD, etc. The cycle between CeO 2 -Al 2 O 3 and CeAlO 3 was verified by in-situ CH 4 /CO 2 -TPSR, and the catalytic role of CeAlO 3 in coke elimination and CO 2 activation was further confirmed. Due to the uniform distribution of Ni nanoparticles (NP S ) and the activation of CO 2 by CeAlO 3 , Ni/CeAlO 3 -Al 2 O 3 /SCF shows excellent catalytic stability to inhibit sintering and eliminate carbon deposition. At 900 °C and a gas hourly space velocity (GSHV) of 24000 mL g Cat -1 h −1 , excellent CH 4 /CO 2 conversion of 86/99% are initially achieved over Ni/CeAlO 3 -Al 2 O 3 /SCF catalyst, followed by slight decrease after 140 h, and remain basically stable for the next 260 h.

The photocatalytic conversion of CO2 into hydrocarbon fuels by utilizing abundant solar energy is a promising and eco-friendly approach to address the energy crisis and global warming. In this work, the sensitizer Ni(II) tetra(4-carboxylphenyl)porphyrin (NiTCPP) was successfully combined with TiO2 nanotube arrays (TiO2NTs) by three methods, and their performances in the photocatalytic reduction of CO2 under simulated solar irradiation were studied. The results showed that NiTCPP/TiO2NTs exhibit a greatly ameliorated photocatalytic activity, and the photocatalytic reduction activities of NiTCPP/TiO2NTs prepared by different methods were different. The catalyst prepared by the impregnation method displayed the highest photoreduction efficiency. The reduction rate of CO2 into CH4 was up to 33.89 μmol/cm2/h with a quantum efficiency of 0.65% (at 420 nm), about 5 times that of the bare TiO2NTs. The introduction of NiTCPP not only efficiently expands the light absorption range but also enhances the charge separation efficiency. Furthermore, a possible mechanism of its CO2 photoreduction performances was systematically presented.

In the present study, the synthesis of NdMg 12 + x wt%Ni( x = 0, 5, 10, 15) alloy was effectively accomplished through the technique of ball milling , and the profound impact of Ni on the microstructural attributes, as well as the hydrogen absorption and desorption characteristics of NdMg 12 alloy, was meticulously examined. The microstructural analysis reveals that Ni can notably facilitate the development of nanocrystalline and amorphous structural configurations. Subsequent investigations uncovered that a portion of Ni was transformed into the Mg 2 Ni phase on the surface of the NdMg 12 alloy, thereby increasing the number of hydrogen absorption active sites and subsequently enhancing the hydrogen absorption and desorption capabilities of the NdMg 12 +Ni alloy. A thermodynamic analysis reveals that the incorporation of Ni exerts a substantial elevating effect on the hydrogen desorption plateau pressure of NdMg 12 +Ni alloy. As the Ni content escalates from 0 wt% to 5 wt%, the enthalpy of the hydrogen desorption process plummets significantly, from 89.1888 kJ/mol H 2 to 80.2806 kJ/mol H 2 . Concurrently, the addition of Ni markedly diminishes the hysteresis coefficient during hydrogen absorption and desorption, thereby enhancing the overall hydrogen absorption and desorption efficiency of NdMg 12 +Ni alloy. Moreover, the inclusion of Ni not only expedites the hydrogen absorption rate within the NdMg 12 +Ni alloy but also substantially diminishes the activation energy for hydrogen desorption, effectively lowering the minimal hydrogen desorption temperature from 261℃ to 199℃. Notably, the NdMg 12 + 10 wt%Ni alloy exhibited the lowest activation energy (Ea = 114.4995 kJ/mol) and demonstrated superior hydrogen desorption kinetics.

Tailoring a highly active interlayer in Pd electrodes is critical for determining electrode performance and stability. In this study, an active Cu-porphyrin interlayer is electrodeposited onto the sponge nickel (SN) skeleton. The modified sponge nickel is subsequently used to support Pd particles and fabricate an effective Pd/Cu-P/SN composite electrode. Compared with the initial Pd/SN electrode, the increase in dechlorination efficiency is 3.59 times for the Pd/Cu-P/SN electrode. Furthermore, substantial improvements in both mass activity and current efficiency are achieved, with respective increases of approximately 14.2-fold and 4.2-fold relative to the untreated electrode. These significant enhancements are ascribed to the well-designed active Cu-porphyrin interphase. Specifically, the Cu-porphyrin interlayer on the SN skeleton provides an enlarged specific surface area, thus accommodating a greater dispersion of Pd particles. Additionally, the confinement of Pd particles on Cu-porphyrin regions leads to the establishment of Pd Cu interfaces, and this interfacial intimacy expedites the evolution of active hydrogen, leading to a high electrocatalytic removal rate even at an elevated 4-chlorophenol concentration. The Pd/Cu-P/SN composite electrode presented here shows a great application potential for the electrocatalytic treatment of organic chlorophenol wastewater, which also paves a new avenue for enhancing electrode properties through rational introducing of metal-porphyrin interphase.

One core reaction involved in many electrochemical energy conversion systems is the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which usually dominates the overall polarization loss due to its sluggish kinetics. Activating O2 electrocatalysis on the catalyst surface requires effective regulation of the surface spatial and electronic structure to facilitate the in situ generation of active species. Here, we report an in situ surface reconstruction method to boost the activity of a Ni-based perovskite hydroxide, NiSn(OH)6, for OER catalysis. The surface reconstruction is modulated by anodic polarization during the OER process, building a Ni3+-containing amorphous layer with selective Sn etching. Taking advantage of the in situ surface amorphization that facilitates the generation of active metal oxy(hydroxide) species, a significant performance enhancement is achieved on NiSn(OH)6. Theoretical calculations further demonstrate that the Sn vacancies on the surface optimize the electronic structure of the Ni sites and promote the adsorption of the reaction intermediates.

An energy storage system based on a battery-type electrode and a capacitive electrode as a hybrid supercapacitor offers a promising way to construct devices with advantages of both rechargeable batteries and carbon-based supercapacitors. NiCoAl-LDH nanosheets uniformly grow onto micron-scaled MXene sheets to form a NiCoAl-LDH/V4C3Tx heterostructure with three-dimensional interconnected porous network microstructures by a hydrothermal method. NiCoAl-LDH/V4C3Tx composite electrodes show an excellent specific capacity of 627 C g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1 in 1 M KOH. Especially, the NiCoAl-LDH/V4C3Tx electrodes exhibit a specific capacity of 300 C g−1 even at a high current density of 20 A g−1 in 1 M KOH, showing excellent rate performance. Hybrid supercapacitors, constructed with NiCoAl-LDH/V4C3Tx as the battery-type electrode and activated carbon (AC) as the capacitive electrode, show superior energy densities of 71.7 and 45.0 W h kg−1 at power densities of 830 and 20 000 W kg−1 in 1 M KOH, respectively. The excellent capacity retention rate is 98% for the hybrid device after 10 000 cycles at 20 A g−1 in 1 M KOH. The NiCoAl-LDH/V4C3Tx heterostructures can be used as promising electrode materials for low-cost hybrid supercapacitor devices.
