BACKGROUND Heavy oil has the characteristics of high viscosity and low American Petroleum Institute gravity, which makes it difficult to transport and produce. The key to efficiently utilizing heavy oil is reducing viscosity and improving quality. Hydroconversion has the advantages of viscosity reduction and decreased coke production, but it is difficult to separate nonmagnetic catalysts from the reaction system, which affects the industrial application. RESULTS A spherical Fe 3 O 4 (74.71 emu g −1 ) and a chain Fe Fe 2 O 3 (110 emu g −1 ) were prepared as magnetic cores, and coated with SiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 layers, respectively. The metal-supported catalyst modified with Co and Ni show irregular and honeycomb-shaped surfaces, and the magnetic saturation strength decreases to 24.91 and 14.63 emu g −1 , but still possessing superparamagnetic properties, enabling the catalysts to be separated from the reaction mixture. Fe-Fe 2 O 3 @SiO 2 @Al 2 O 3 @CoNi catalyst has the best viscosity reduction effect for Canadian oil sands asphalt residue at about 410 °C and 10 MPa hydrogen pressure. The viscosity of the liquid product decreased significantly from 56 600 to 135 mPa s at 50 °C, with a viscosity reduction of 99.8%. CONCLUSION Magnetic catalyst prepared from chain-like Fe-Fe 2 O 3 has an excellent honeycomb structure, which can provide increased active surfaces and exhibit improved viscosity reduction performance. This work provides a strategy for the recovery of heavy oil hydrogenation catalysts and is expected to play a key role in the practical application of heavy oil hydrogenation catalytic viscosity reduction. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

Graphical The 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst exhibits excellent catalytic efficiency in the reduction amination of levulinic acid to prepare 1,5-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidone. 1,5-dimethyl-2-pyrrolidone (MNMP), as a highly efficient green solvent, can be obtained from biomass-derived levulinic acid and its esters with 100 % conversion and 96.8 % yield over a 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst at 140 °C, 2 MPa H 2 , 8 h, and with water as the solvent. Structure-property correlation investigations were performed with diverse characterization methods, including BET, XRD, XPS, TEM, HAADF-STEM, H 2 -TPR, NH 3 -TPD, CO 2 -TPD and FT-IR, and the results revealed that the excellent catalytic performance of the 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst was mainly resulted from the strong interaction between Ni and CeOx, which formed more catalytic active sites and contributed to higher reductive amination efficiency. Besides, the 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst had a chemisorption effect on LA. This was also the key to the excellent catalytic activity of the 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst. The 10 % Ni@CeOx catalyst exhibited great stability throughout 6 reaction runs and excellent catalytic efficiency in the kilogram scale preparation of MNMP. This work provides a low-cost, efficient, and environmentally friendly heterogeneous catalytic system for the production of MNMP.

Lithium-oxygen (Li-O 2 ) batteries have become one of the most promising next-generation energy storage systems due to their high theoretical specific capacity. However, Li-O 2 batteries still face the problem of high charging voltage due to incomplete decomposition of discharge products. Here, a nitrogen-doped hollow spherical carbon composite containing Ni/Co nanoparticles was prepared by hydrothermal and pyrolysis strategies, and used as positive catalyst for Li-O 2 batteries to adjust the morphology of the discharge product. The porous hollow carbon sphere provides sufficient space for the storage of discharge products. Nitrogen-doped carbon nanospheres can change the local charge density, improve the electron transfer performance, and reduce the resistivity of carbon nanospheres. In addition, the abundant M-N x active groups enhance the affinity of the positive electrode to the reaction intermediates, thus regulating the morphology of the discharge product Li 2 O 2 . Benefiting from the above synergistic advantages, the electrochemical performance of the Li-O 2 battery including round-trip efficiency, discharge capacity, and cycling stability is greatly improved.

The restructuring of a catalyst under working conditions has been recognized as a critical factor that can significantly impact their performance in recent years. In this study, we investigate the behavior of a highly dispersed Ni supported on TiO 2 (P25) catalyst during the partial oxidation of methane (POM) to produce syngas. Our results reveal a distinct oscillation phenomenon in the catalyst's performance over time. The simultaneous oscillations of rapid deactivation and activation are observed, while the catalyst remains active for continuous POM reaction. Comprehensive characterizations suggest that this deactivation is not caused by traditional deactivation mechanisms with coke formation or Ni sintering. The formation of inactive NiTiO 3 results in catalyst deactivation, which is formed between Ni and TiO 2 support in the reductive atmosphere of POM products under high temperature due to strong metal-support interaction (SMSI). The simultaneous presence of oxidative and reductive atmospheres of the reactants and products in the POM reaction leads to the generation or demise of NiTiO 3 . The dynamic change of the Ni active sites during the in-situ reaction leads to the oscillation of the catalytic activity. This study sheds new light on the importance of SMSI in understanding the behavior of catalysts under working conditions.

Designing highly active and stable catalysts for the selective cleavage of the C-O bond of lignin is important to convert it into high-valued aromatic compounds. Herein, a facile synthetic strategy was developed using melamine as a soft template to prepare a highly active catalyst consisting of highly dispersed Ni nanoparticles on defective N-doped carbon support. The results indicated that the decomposition of melamine during the pyrolysis process induced the nitrogen atoms into aromatic carbon. The introduction of N-doped carbon support acted as anchor points for the Ni nanoparticles, strengthening the metal-support interaction. Approximately 100 conversion of the representative lignin model compounds, including 2-phenylethyl phenyl ether, were converted into their aromatic monomers under mild conditions. The as-prepared catalyst was stable and reusable after five cycles with no apparent signs of deactivation. Moreover, the theoretical calculation revealed that N-doped carbon supported Ni-based catalyst possessed a lower activation energy of C-O bond than only carbon supported Ni-based catalyst for the C-O bond cleavage in hydrogenolysis of lignin and its model compounds.

One of the most effective methods of utilizing CH 4 and CO 2 resources is the dry reforming of methane (DRM). However, the small particle size and the metal-support interactions of Ni–W bimetallic catalysts are key factors affecting activity and carbon deposition . This article evaluates the effect of Ni–W bimetallic catalysts synthesized by different preparation methods on their catalytic performance in DRM reactions. The results show that the bimetallic catalyst prepared by the solid-state grinding method exhibits excellent catalytic performance and anti-carbon deposition performance. The conversion rate of CH 4 and CO 2 remain unchanged during 1450 min, which is 58% and 66%, respectively. Through various characterization methods, it has been proven that the bimetallic catalyst prepared by the solid-state grinding method effectively reduces the size of Ni particles and increases the number of exposed active sites. In addition, this method also enhances the metal-support interactions, which helps to improve the stability of the catalyst.

Summary Free-standing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with controllable structure and good stability are emerging as promising materials for applications in flexible pressure sensors and energy-storage devices. However, the inherent low electrical conductivity of MOF-based materials requires complex preparation processes that involve high-temperature carbonization. This work presents a simple method to grow conductive nickel MOF nanowire arrays on carbon cloth (Ni-CAT@CC) and use Ni-CAT@CC as the functional electrodes for flexible piezoresistive sensor. The resulting sensor is able to monitor human activity, including elbow bending, knee bending, and wrist bending. Besides, the soft-packaged aqueous Ni-Zn battery is assembled with Ni-CAT@CC, a piece of glass microfiber filters, and Zn foil acting as cathode, separator, and anode, respectively. The Ni-Zn battery can be used as a power source for finger pressure monitoring. This work demonstrates free-standing MOF-based nanowires as bifunctional fabric electrodes for wearable electronics.

This study fabricates certain Ni/diamond composite coatings using a coelectrodeposition method and then evaluates the effect of diamond content on the morphology, phase structure, microhardness, wear, and corrosion resistance of such coatings, while exploring their tribological and anticorrosion mechanisms. It is demonstrated that the addition of diamond can change the preferred orientation of Ni from (200) to (111), and its texture coefficient value can be boosted from 23.3% to 64.4% with the increase of diamond content. In the experiment, at a diamond content of 3 g L −1 , the deposited diamond particles are more and evenly dispersed across the composite, with the microhardness of nickel-based coatings reaching an optimum value of 613 HV. In addition, the coefficient of friction is reduced to a minimum value of 0.627, while the wear rate is kept at only 1.79 × 10 −5 mm 3 Nm −1 , indicating a high wear resistance. Electrochemical test results demonstrate that the Ni/diamond composite coatings produced at 3 g L −1 create the maximum charge transfer resistance (5429.3 Ω cm 2 ) and the minimum corrosion current density (2.19 μA cm −2 ), features that can deliver the best corrosion resistance.

To enable the widespread application of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technique in practical sensing of organic pollutants, it is essential to develop a reliable SERS substrate that offers both high sensitivity and reusability. In this study, we employed a simple and rapid in-situ deposition method to coat Ag nanoparticles onto flower-like Ni(OH) 2 spheres, resulting in the formation of Ni(OH) 2 /Ag composites with excellent photocatalytic performance and SERS activity. These composites were used as a promising SERS analysis tool for effective detection of organic pollutants, including ciprofloxacin hydrochloride (CIP) and methylene blue (MB). Notably, the composites exhibited outstanding detection limits of 10 −8 M for MB and 10 −7 M for CIP, respectively, and showed a strong linear relationship between SERS intensities and the logarithmic concentration (R 2 ≥ 0.97). Moreover, under simulated sunlight irradiation, the Ni(OH) 2 /Ag composites efficiently degraded MB and CIP molecules within a short period of 120 min for MB and 130 min for CIP. This demonstrated their practical reusability, as evidenced by their consistent performance over five cycles of SERS sensing. These findings underscore the significant potential of these composites for SERS-based detection of trace pollutants and ecological restoration through photocatalytic reactions in the future.

Alkaline zinc-based batteries have become a current research hotspot due to their high energy density and safety, but their low cycle stability and rate performance limit their commercial applications. Herein, vertically ordered NiCo 2 S x nanoneedle arrays are prepared using different sulfidation concentrations based on the anion exchange reaction. The highly uniform nanoneedle arrays provide fast ion transport paths and abundant active sites, and the prepared NiCo 2 S x @Ni foam (NiCo 2 S x @NF) electrode has the excellent capacity (121.9 mAh g −1 ), stable cycle performance (91.1 % of capacity retention after 500 cycles), also achieves a maximum energy density of 636.3 Wh kg −1 and a maximum power density of 40.9 kW kg −1 . This paper provides a more precise and accurate idea for preparing cathode materials for durable alkaline Ni–Zn batteries .

The study of the aqueous-phase selective hydrogenation of maleic anhydride to succinic acid is important for expanding the coal chemical industry chain and promoting biomass conversion . The key lies in the development of highly efficient and stable non-noble metal catalysts. Herein, we report a novel intermetallic CaNi 2 Si 2 catalyst with high activity and stability for the aqueous-phase selective hydrogenation of maleic anhydride. The results from the experiments and theoretical calculations demonstrated that the high catalytic performance was due to the synergy of the electron-rich Ni active sites, enhanced adsorption of C=C bonds, and favorable activation of H 2 . The yield of succinic acid can be 100% over the CaNi 2 Si 2 catalyst at the contact time of 5.4 g cat /(mmol reactant ·min −1 ) under 3 MPa and 120 °C in the continuous flow reactor. Furthermore, the special coordination environment and electronic structure of Ni in CaNi 2 Si 2 inhibit the formation of carboxylates, thus enhancing the acid resistance in the reaction environment. The fine design and regulation of the structure of intermetallic silicides will be important references for the controllable optimization of maleic anhydride hydrogenation catalysts and provide new insights into the development of efficient and stable selective hydrogenation catalysts in harsh reaction environments.

Ti 3 C 2 T x can dissipate energy well due to its high conductivity, but at the expense of severe electromagnetic (EM) wave reflection, which is exacerbated by self-stacking. Despite various attempts to tackle this problem, the excessive isolation of Ti 3 C 2 T x and massive high-density inorganic components render these designs unfavorable for lightweight and broadband absorption. Meanwhile, improvements in absorption performance are related to active surface and polarization interface expansion, as well as conductive path reconstruction, but the main contributing factor remains unknown. In this work, the dual-shell structured Ti 3 C 2 T x @CNTs/Ni-HS (hollow sphere) composites are fabricated. This structure creates a confined dissipation cage, where the CNTs/Ni shell confines the electron transfer among spheres and prevents self-restacking and the tightly contacted Ti 3 C 2 T x shell forms an uninterrupted conductive path for effective dissipation. Therefore, Ti 3 C 2 T x @CNTs/Ni-HS-1 exhibits a broad effective absorption band of 6.1 GHz and a minimum reflection loss of −64.6 dB at a mass ratio of only 15 wt%. Importantly, when hollow structure cracks, although large active surface and polarizable interface remain, the absorption capacity of fragmented Ti 3 C 2 T x @CNTs/Ni-HS-1 deteriorates, indicating rational conductive path in confined dissipation cage is the main factor in achieving excellent performance. This work provides new insight for the rational design of high-performance absorbers.
