The efficiency of hydrogen peroxide evolution reaction (H 2 O 2 ER) by photoanodic water oxidation is normally limited by low yield and poor selectivity. In this work, the surfaces of Mo doped BiVO 4 are modified by Co 2+ and PO 4 3- ions (CPMB), which has been used as the photoanode with improved H 2 O 2 yield and selectivity. The optimal evolution rate of the CPMB is ca. 0.23 µmol·min −1 ·cm −2 , corresponding to 2.5 times to the pristine BiVO 4 photoanode, and the faradaic efficiency of CPMB photoanode for H 2 O 2 ER is ca. 26%. In this study, the mechanism for the improved H 2 O 2 evolution performance of CPMB has been investigated, indicating that PO 4 3- ions mainly promote the formation of the •OH by dissociation of H 2 O, while Co 2+ ions accelerate the conversion of the •OH for the subsequent H 2 O 2 evolution. This study offers the strategy for designing an efficient photoelectrochemical system with optimized solar conversion efficiency for H 2 O 2 production.

Two-dimensional (2D) lamellar ReS2 nanosheets are considered a promising electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) but suffer from poor intrinsic conductivity and catalytically inert basal planes. In this work, sub 50 nm hierarchical Mo-doped ReS2 nanospheres consisting of numerous few-layered and defect-rich nanosheets are designed and synthesized as robust and efficient HER catalysts. On the one hand, the small size of the hierarchical structure, the disordered basal planes and the expanded interlayer endow the nanosheets with plentiful defects, thereby resulting in abundant exposed active sites. On the other hand, Mo-doping offers the nanosheets with some electronic benefits of unsaturated electrons, improved intrinsic conductivity, and optimized hydrogen adsorption free energy (ΔGH) of the basal planes. Owing to the synergistic effects, the 10%Mo-ReS2 catalyst exhibits an optimized catalytic activity with striking kinetic metrics of a small Tafel slope of 62 mV dec−1, a low overpotential of 81 mV at 10 mA cm−2, and a long operation stability of 50 h, and its performance is among the best of ReS2-based catalysts. This work provides a new approach for gaining the structural and electronic benefits of ReS2 catalysts by combinational nanoscale engineering and heteroatom doping.

Mo(VI)-containing phosphates are widely used in catalyses, ion batteries, and nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals. However, few strategies can effectively guide the syntheses of the Mo(VI)-containing phosphates. In this paper, three new Mo(VI)-containing phosphates, Cs3Mo12PO40, LiK(MoPO6)2, and Sr(MoPO6)2, with different dimensions have been successfully synthesized by adjusting the Mo/P ratios. Interestingly, Cs3Mo12PO40 is a classic Keggin-type polyoxometalate composed of zero-dimensional (0D) [Mo12PO40]3– clusters, whereas LiK(MoPO6)2 and Sr(MoPO6)2 have three-dimensional (3D) [MoO2O4P]∞ frameworks consisting of MoO6 octahedra and PO4 tetrahedra in a 1/1 ratio. Detailed structural comparisons of Mo(VI)-containig phosphates indicate that the Mo/P ratios have a significant effect on the structural dimensions. Further, the optical properties and thermal stabilities of Cs3Mo12PO40, LiK(MoPO6)2, and Sr(MoPO6)2 are also determined.

Synthetic fuels produced from CO2 show promise in combating climate change. The reverse water gas shift (RWGS) reaction is the key to opening the CO2 molecule, and CO serves as a versatile intermediate for creating various hydrocarbons. Mo-based catalysts are of great interest for RWGS reactions featured for their stability and strong metal–oxygen interactions. Our study identified Mo defects as the intrinsic origin of the high activity of cluster Mo2C for CO2-selective hydrogenation. Specifically, we found that defected Mo2C clusters supported on nitrogen-doped graphene exhibited exceptional catalytic performance, attaining a reaction rate of 6.3 gCO/gcat/h at 400 °C with over 99% CO selectivity and good stability. Such a catalyst outperformed other Mo-based catalysts and noble metal-based catalysts in terms of facile dissociation of CO2, highly selective hydrogenation, and nonbarrier liberation of CO. Our study revealed that as a potential descriptor, the atomic magnetism linearly correlates to the liberation capacity of CO, and Mo defects facilitated product desorption by reducing the magnetization of the adsorption site. On the other hand, the defects were effective in neutralizing the negative charges of surface hydrogen, which is crucial for selective hydrogenation. Finally, we have successfully demonstrated that the combination of a carbon support and the carbonization process synergistically serves as a feasible strategy for creating rich Mo defects, and biochar can be a low-cost alternative option for large-scale applications.

CO 2 reforming with methane (DRM) is a potential effective carbon neutralization strategy to convert greenhouse gases into syngas. The key to the DRM process is to design active and coking resistant catalysts. Herein, hollow hierarchical bimetallic NiMo-HMgO catalysts were prepared via hydrothermal-impregnation method. The prepared NiMo-HMgO catalysts exhibited higher catalytic performance during the DRM process than commercial NiMo-CMgO catalysts, due to the formation of Ni-Mo-MgO composite on hierarchical MgO (HMgO), which is promoted by exposed (111) polar surface of HMgO with alternate arrangement of anion and cation layers. The deposited carbon and stability can be effectively regulated by adjusting the amount of Ni and the molar ratio of Mo/(Ni+Mo). The synergistic effect of metal and HMgO can provide reference for the research in other related fields.

The properties of support have significant effects on the catalytic performance of supported catalysts. The present study involves the synthesis of a series of Mo-modified NbOPO4 supports, which were subsequently utilized for the preparation of supported NiCu bimetallic catalysts via a hydrothermal method. All catalysts were evaluated in the HDO of oleic acid to long-chain alkanes without carbon loss, an essential procedure for contemporary industrial applications. The effects of acidity and porosity on the dispersity and valence states of the metal components were systematically investigated via BET, XRD, SEM, XPS, NH3-TPD, and H2-TPR. Catalytic performance of the materials for HDO of oleic acid was assessed and it revealed that NiCu supported on Mo-modified NbOPO4 exhibited significantly enhanced selectivity for C18 compared to those supported on NbOPO4 (53.10% VS 84.16%) under the mild reaction condition of 250 °C reaction temperature, 3 MPa initial H2 pressure and 7 h reaction time. The resluts demonstrated the significant potential of Mo-modified NbOPO4 as a support for NiCu bimetallic catalysts, enabling efficient conversion of oleic acid into C18 and highlighted the crucial role of support modification in enhancing catalytic performance.

Mo 2 FeB 2 powders with different Mo/B atomic ratios (0.9, 1.0, 1.1) were first prepared under vacuum condition using different-sized Mo powder, as well as FeB and B 4 C powders as raw materials. Based on the prepared Mo 2 FeB 2 powders, Mo 2 FeB 2 -based cermets were synthesized at different sintering temperatures. Results indicated the morphology of the hard phase was closely related to the Mo/B atomic ratio. As the Mo/B atomic ratio increased, the degree of anisotropy of the hard phase decreased significantly, and its grain morphology gradually evolved from elongated to nearly equiaxed shape. When the sintering temperature was 1200 °C, the incomplete diffusion of the liquid phase led to the occurrence of “liquid-filled lakes” in some samples, while this phenomenon became weakened after the temperature was increased. The microstructure uniformity was optimal when Mo/B = 0.9, with the hardness of 1227 HV 30 ; while the fracture toughness and transverse fracture strength were optimal when Mo/B = 1.1, reaching 23.8 MPa m 1/2 and 2125.9 MPa, respectively. Annealing twins were observed in the γ-Fe binder phase of sample D, which effectively improved the fracture toughness of the cermet by altering the crystallographic orientation of the binder phase. The cermets prepared from ultrafine Mo powders exhibited better mechanical properties due to grain refinement and low porosity.

Biomass hydropyrolysis vapor upgrading (HPVU) is a promising approach for biofuel production, where metallic catalysts play a key role in oxygen removal and aromatic hydrocarbon formation. In this study, Pd/HZSM-5 and Mo/γAl 2 O 3 catalysts were prepared and utilized individually or in combination to investigate their effects on poplar HPVU in a continuous-flow reactor. Meanwhile, the influence of upgrading temperature on hydrodeoxygenation (HDO) reactions was studied. At an upgrading temperature of 400 ℃, combination of Pd/HZSM-5 and Mo/γAl₂O₃ resulted in an organic phase yield of 9.19 wt%. The mass yield and selectivity of aromatic hydrocarbons reached 8.13 wt% and 93.4 %, respectively, with selectivity of C8 + monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbons accounting for 56.7 %. The overall mass balance was 96.2 %. The presence of Pd promotes hydrogenation and hydroalkylation reactions, while Mo/γAl₂O₃ enhances deoxygenation. Additionally, its mesoporous structure facilitates reactant diffusion. The density functional theory calculations confirmed that Pd could efficiently activate H 2 and thus provide hydrogen radicals for HDO on Mo/γAl₂O₃ surface, which revealed the synergistic effect of these two catalysts. This study highlights that noble-metal catalyst aided by oxophilic metal catalyst can make a significant contribution to biomass HPVU.

Triethylamine (TEA) poses severe safety hazards to industrial production and human health. To accurately detect TEA concentrations and rapidly warn of leakage, a simple reflux condensation method was deployed to successfully incorporate Zn 2+ in situ into Mo-MOFs precursor in a green, safe, and time-efficient synthesis condition. Subsequently, through calcination, MoO 3 /ZnMoO 4 -X (MMZ-X) were prepared, which exhibited an increased number of defects and enriched porosity, facilitating the access and interaction of TEA with adsorption sites. Simultaneously, rationally built in situ MoO 3 /ZnMoO 4 heterostructures accelerated carrier migration and induced a drastic resistive change. MMZ-2 demonstrated outstanding TEA sensing performance, exhibiting extremely high sensitivity ( R = 572.3, 100 ppm), along with superior selectivity, repeatability and stability, rapid response and recovery times, and a low detection limit. Moreover, the key intrinsic parameters of the heterostructure on the atomic scale were determined by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, providing a detailed elucidation of the sensing enhancement mechanism of the MoO 3 /ZnMoO 4 heterostructure. The simple and efficient synthesis method and the related mechanistic analysis pave a new path for designing high-performance TEA gas sensors with practical applications.

B 4 C-TiB 2 ceramics (TiB 2 ranging 5~70 vol%) with Mo-Co-WC as the sintering additive were prepared by spark plasma sintering. In comparison with B 4 C-TiB 2 without additive, the enhanced densification was evident in the sintered specimen with Mo-Co-WC additive. Core-rim structured grain was observed around TiB 2 grains. The interface of the rim between TiB 2 and B 4 C phases demonstrated different feature: the inner borderline of the rim exhibited a smooth feature, whereas a sharp curved grain boundary was observed between the rim and the B 4 C grain. The formation mechanism is discussed: the epitaxial growth of (Ti,Mo,W)B 2 rim around the TiB 2 core may occur as a result of the solid solution and dissolution-precipitation between TiB 2 phase and the sintering additive. It was revealed that the fracture toughness increased as the content of TiB 2 content increased, alongside the decreased hardness. B 4 C-30 vol% TiB 2 specimen demonstrated the optimal combination of mechanical properties, reaching Vickers hardness of 24.3 GPa and fracture toughness of 3.33 MPa·m 1/2 .

In the context of the preparation of liquid fuels derived from biomass with zero CO2 footprint, fatty acids appear as suitable feedstocks. However, reduction of carboxylic acid groups usually requires harsh reaction conditions and the development of efficient solid catalysts. Herein, bimetallic Ni–Mo nitrides have been obtained by a procedure not involving nitridation of the corresponding oxide, but reductive decomposition of the tris(ethylenediamine)nickel molybdate at temperatures between 550 and 700 °C. Successful formation of the Ni3Mo3N nitride is confirmed by X-ray diffraction. Ni3Mo3N samples are found to be efficient catalysts for the hydrodeoxygenation of palmitic acid to C15/C16 alkanes with a combined selectivity over 90 and 100% palmitic acid conversion and higher activity than analogous Ni–Mo nitrides obtained by NH3 nitridation of NiMoO4. Ni3Mo3N is found recyclable with only a slight decay in the catalytic activity upon consecutive reuses attributable to the neutralization of acid sites. The present results show an opportunity that bimetallic nitrides offer as robust advanced solid catalysts for reactions of biomass conversion requiring harsh conditions.
