The key to the development of non-noble metal catalysts with high activity and durability for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline water/seawater conditions is to construct multi-interface electrocatalysts. Herein, the CoMoO4 nanorod arrays grown on foam nickel (NF) was first prepared by a hydrothermal method. Then, Ni(PO3)2-CoP4 with multi-interface was prepared by soaking the nanorod arrays into a nickel nitrate solution and then by phosphating via chemical vapor deposition. The Ni(PO3)2-CoP4/CoMoO4/NF electrode exhibits superior HER electrocatalytic performance under alkaline conditions with an ultralow overpotential of 79 mV@100 mA·cm–2, which outperforms other reported earth–abundant transition-metal phosphide catalysts. It also maintains long-term durability in alkaline water/seawater electrolytes in 60 h at a constant 100 mA·cm–2. In the alkaline natural seawater electrolyte, Ni(PO3)2-CoP4/CoMoO4/NF (−)||NiFe LDH (+) pair has good long-term stability of 60 h for the voltage of only 1.60 V@100 mA·cm–2. The excellent performance is attributed to the plentiful active sites and the rapid electron-transfer rate. This work affords a new path to rationalize the design strategy of low-cost and multi-interface 3D catalysts for alkaline water/seawater electrolysis.

Herein, we report a micro-mix strategy for the continuous and large-scale synthesis of Ni–Co PBA nanoparticles. The technique presented in this study allows the particle size to be controlled in the 165 nm to 350 nm range while maintaining a high specific surface area (250 m2 g−1) and cubic structure. Furthermore, the particles exhibit superior dispersity and have a more homogeneous particle size than those prepared using the conventional stirring-mix method due to the drastic collisions that occur in the microchannel during the precipitation process. The present study demonstrates that the concentration of raw materials and feed flow rates in the microreactor effectively control the particle size during mixing. The high concentration of raw materials could decrease the particle size, and the particle size is decreased with the increasing feed flow rates when Re (Reynolds number) <783. Particularly, when 783 < Re < 1567, the particle size remains stable (about 165 ± 10 nm). Additionally, the space-time yield (STY) of Ni–Co PBA is 471 kg m−3 d−1. Finally, the continuous flow microreactor can continuously fabricate large-scale and high-quality Ni–Co PBA crystals with distinct morphological features in a short period of time, providing an effective alternative to the time-consuming and multi-step MOF synthesis method.

Here, we report the production of 3D-printed MoS 2 /Ni electrodes (3D-MoS 2 /Ni) with long-term stability and excellent performance by the selective laser melting (SLM) technique. As a cathode, the obtained 3D-MoS 2 /Ni could maintain a degradation rate above 94.0% for florfenicol (FLO) when repeatedly used 50 times in water. We also found that the removal rate of FLO by 3D-MoS 2 /Ni was about 12 times higher than that of 3D-printed pure Ni (3D-Ni), attributed to the improved accessibility of H*. In addition, the electrochemical characterization results showed that the electrochemically active surface area of the 3D-MoS 2 /Ni electrode is about 3-fold higher than that of the 3D-Ni electrode while the electrical resistance is 4 times lower. Based on tert -butanol suppression, electron paramagnetic resonance and triple quadrupole mass spectrometer experiments, a “dual path” mechanism and possible degradation pathway for the dechlorination of FLO by 3D-MoS 2 /Ni were proposed. Furthermore, we also investigated the impacts of the cathode potential and the initial pH of the solution on the degradation of FLO. Overall, this study reveals that the SLM 3D printing technique is a promising approach for the rapid fabrication of high-stability metal electrodes, which could have broad application in the control of water contaminants in the environmental field.

Valuable 5-amino-1-pentanol (5-AP) was efficiently synthesized from biomass-derived dihydropyran over hydroxylapatite nanorod supported Ni catalysts (Ni-HAP), by coupling the in situ generation of 5-hydroxypentanal (5-HP, via the ring-opening tautomerization of 2-hydroxytetrahydropyran (2-HTHP)) and its subsequent reductive amination. The Ni-HAP catalyst with 10 wt% Ni loading exhibited the highest 5-AP yield than the other Ni-HAP catalysts with different Ni loadings and several commercial hydrogenation catalysts, including Ru/C, Pt/C and Pd/C, as well as Raney Ni. High Ni particles dispersion, high reducibility and acidic intensity were found to account for the superior catalytic performance of 10Ni-HAP. The effect of reaction parameters on the catalytic performance was investigated, and an excellent 5-AP yield of 92% was achieved under mild reaction conditions of 80 °C and 2 MPa H 2 . The stability of the Ni-HAP catalyst was studied using a continuous flow reactor, and the sintering of Ni nanoparticles was considered as the major reason for the decline in hydrogenation activity. Graphical Abstract The Ni-HAP catalyst exhibited high catalytic performance to synthesis 5-AP due to the high Ni particles dispersion, reducibility and acidic intensity.

Ni/WC-MoS 2 composite coatings were fabricated in electrolytes with different MoS 2 doping levels using jet electrodeposition. We investigated the surface characteristics of Ni/WC-MoS 2 composite coatings, including the composition, surface morphology, microhardness and tribological behaviour. We also analysed the Ni/WC-MoS 2 composite coating wear mechanism during the wear process. The outcomes determined that Ni/WC-MoS 2 coatings had better surface quality, smaller grain size and larger coating thickness than Ni/WC coatings. The doping of MoS 2 promoted the deposition of WC in the coatings, which further enhanced the microhardness of the coatings. The Ni/WC-MoS 2 composite coatings doped at a MoS 2 concentration of 5 g/L exhibited a maximal microhardness of 730 HV 0.1 . Doping by MoS 2 effectively minimized the coefficients of friction ( CoFs ) of the composite coatings to 0.3. During the wear process, the repair effect of MoS 2 and formation of oxidised friction films transformed the adhesive wear into oxidative wear assisted by abrasive wear, which improved the abrasion resistance of the coatings and diminished the wear rate. The wear rate of the Ni/WC-5 g/L MoS 2 composite coating decreased by 47.34 % in comparison with that of coatings without MoS 2 doping, which was 7.44 × 10 4 μm 3 /N∙m. The findings indicate that doping MoS 2 can effectively enhance the surface wear resistance. This research provides a practical approach to prolong the service life of metal parts.

The Ni-rich cathode holds great promise for high energy density lithium-ion batteries because of its high capacity and operating voltage. However, crucial problems such as cation disorder, structural degradation, side reactions, and microcracks become serious with increasing nickel content. Herein, a novel and facile sol/antisolvent coating modification of Ni-rich layered oxide LiNi0.85Co0.1Mn0.05O2 (NCM) is developed where we use ethanol to disperse the nanosized LiBO2 to form the sol and adopt tetrahydrofuran (THF) as antisolvent to prepare the cluster of nanoparticles to be coated on the surface of NCM. The coating thickness can be tuned through the THF addition amount. The LiBO2 nanorod deposition is formed as well over the crack of the NCM cathode, likely acting as a patch to repair the original defect of the intrinsic crack. The uniform LiBO2 nanospherical particle coating together with LiBO2 nanorod wrapping provides a double protection against electrolytes. Compared with the raw material, LiBO2-coated LiNi0.85Co0.1Mn0.05O2 (LiBO2-coated NCM) exhibits a high initial Coulombic efficiency of 90.3% at 0.2 C between 2.8 and 4.3 V vs Li+/Li, a superior rate capability, enhanced fast charge property at 3 C, and restricted microcrack formation. This simple in-site modification and repairing technology guarantees a good mechanical integrity of the polycrystalline Ni-rich cathode.

CoS 2 /Co-Ni layered double hydroxides (LDHs) with a rational tailored pore structure are developed by partial sulfurization of Co-ZIF-L and subsequent Ni 2+ etching for the transformation of zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) to layered double hydroxides . The as-synthesized CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDHs maintain the leaf-like structure and have rich hierarchical pores. More importantly, CoS 2 nanoparticles are uniformly embedded among Co-Ni LDH layers, facilitating mass diffusion and favorably exposing more active sites. Benefiting from these desirable compositional and structural features, a remarkable specific capacitance (capacity) of 1784 F/g (223 mAh/g) at 1 A/g is delivered by CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDHs. Furthermore, the as-assembled CoS 2 /Co-Ni LDH//activated carbon as the asymmetric supercapacitor device also exhibits a high energy density of 125 Wh/kg at a power density of 800 W/kg and a superb capacitance retention of 98 % after 5000 cycles, outperforming many Co-Ni LDH based electrode materials reported in the literature.

Cu2Ni0·05Zn0·95Sn(S,Se)4(CNZTSSe) films were synthesized on Mo-coated glass substrates by the simple sol–gel means combined with the selenization process, and CNZTSSe-based solar cells were successfully prepared. The effects of selenization temperature on the performance and the photoelectric conversion efficiency (PCE) of the solar cells were systematically studied. The results show that the crystallinity of films increases as the selenization temperature raises based on nickel (Ni) doping. When the selenization temperature reached 540 °C, CNZTSSe films with a large grain size and a smooth surface can be obtained. The Se doping level gradually increased, and Se occupied the S position in the lattice as the selenization temperature was increased so that the optical band gap (Eg) of the CNZTSSe film could be adjusted in the range of 1.14 to 1.06 eV. In addition, the Ni doping can inhibit the deep level defect of SnZnand the defect cluster [2CuZn+ SnZn]. It reduces the carrier recombination path. Finally, at the optimal selenization temperature of 540 °C, the open circuit voltage (Voc) of the prepared device reached 344 mV and the PCE reached 5.16%.Keywords:solar cell;selenidation temperature;CNZTSSe;sol gel

Graphical Methanol to formate : Selective electrooxidation of methanol for the production of formate with high Faradic efficiency was easily implemented in a two-electrode configuration at high current densities, in which Co 2+ -doped Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets were facilely grown on Ni foam and were used as efficient porous electrodes. Co 2+ -doped Ni(OH) 2 nanosheets were grown on porous Ni foam by a simple electrodeposition method. The obtained samples were used as porous electrodes for selective electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol to formate in NaOH aqueous solution. The results indicated the oxidizing abilities of the as-prepared electrodes could be regulated by the doping content of Co 2+ for the electrooxidation of methanol, in which the electrode with a Co 2+ doping content of 10 mol % required a lowest potential of ∼1.32 V vs . RHE to achieve a current density of 100 mA cm −2 as compared with other electrodes. And the doping of Co 2+ helped boosting the Faradic efficiency for the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol. Moreover, the electrooxidation of methanol for the production of formate (Faradic efficiency ≥96.5 %) with the simultaneous generation of hydrogen was easily implemented in a two-electrode configuration at high current densities (100–500 mA cm −2 ). The results of the durability test further revealed that the 10 mol % Co 2+ -doped Ni(OH) 2 electrode exhibited an outstanding stability for the electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol in the present system.

The conversion of lignin into value-added chemicals is one of the important ways for sustainable development. Herein, phytic acid, a biomass-derived chemical, was used as the phosphorus source and pore former to synthesize the AlPyOx support. After loading Ni, the Ni/AlPyOx catalysts were found to be highly active in the catalytic conversion of lignin model compounds to high-value-added chemicals under mild conditions. The benzyl phenyl ether (α-O-4 lignin model compound) could be completely converted into toluene and phenol with near-equivalent selectivity at 30 °C and 3 MPa H2. Diphenyl ether and 2-phenoxy-1-phenylethanol were also used as 4-O-5 and β-O-4 model compounds of lignin, respectively. The unique activity of Ni/AlP0.5Ox could be attributed to metallic Ni that interacts with AlP0.5Ox and the unique adsorption of substrates on the carrier. Lignin can also be degraded over Ni/AlP0.5Ox via selective cleavage of the C–O bond, and 26.60 wt % yield of identified monomers was obtained.

In this paper, an amorphous composite electrocatalyst of Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y was prepared by a simple and rapid electrochemical deposition method on nickel foam (NF). The electrochemical performance for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) was tested in 1 M KOH solution. The overpotential of Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y (Co:Ni = 9:1) electrode was 423 mV at 50 mA cm −2 . The potential of the Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y (Co:Ni = 9:1) sample remained essentially unchanged from the initial potential of 1.651 V after 12 h of stability test. In this catalyst, the strong synergistic effect between cobalt and nickel ions, the greatly increased amorphous defect sites and oxygen vacancies, and the abundant electrochemical specific surface area together lead to the increased electrocatalytic activity and high electrocatalyst stability. This amorphous CoNi-based composite electrocatalyst prepared by simple electrodeposition has certain significance for the preparation of hydrogen energy.

Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/Ni-Mn-S composites are derived from MWCNT/Ni/Mn bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) for supercapacitor electrodes. Electroconductive MWCNT is introduced into Ni-Mn-S to form a three-dimensional interconnected structure due to the covalent interaction between Ni atoms and C atoms. During energy storage, MWCNT serves as miniature current collector to shorten pathway of electron collection and transmission. In addition, S 2- etching agent with Kirkendall effect makes edges and surfaces of the resulted sulfide structures rougher provide more active sites and improves electrochemical performance compared with precursors. By finely adjusting Ni/Mn molar ratio, the prepared MWCNT/Ni-Mn-S composite achieves excellent properties. As-prepared MWCNT/Ni-Mn-S(3:2) exhibits high specific capacitance of 1041 mAh g −1 at 1 A g −1 and good cyclic stability. The capacitance retention reaches 83.3% after 10,000 cycles. The assembled MWCNT/Ni-Mn-S(3:2)//AC hybrid supercapacitor (HSC) also shows high energy density of 25.33 Wh Kg −1 at power density of 829 W Kg −1 and outstanding cycling stability (93.3% after 20,000 cycles), which illustrates MWCNT/Ni-Mn-S(3:2) has important potential in supercapacitor.
