The oxygen species in oxygen carriers directly influence the reaction performance in chemical looping processes. This paper describes the relationship between oxygen species and performance in chemical looping partial oxidation of methane (CLPOM) over LaNi x Ti 1- x O 3- δ ( x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 and 1) perovskites . Due to the increase of Ti substitution, the predominate reaction during CLPOM gradually changes from complete oxidation to partial oxidation. Quasi in situ XPS characterization suggests that the relative concentration of nucleophilic lattice oxygen species for partial oxidation increases with Ti substitution, while the relative concentration of electrophilic adsorbed oxygen species for complete oxidation decreases. The moderate Ti substitution for LaNi 0.5 Ti 0.5 O 3- δ provides the suitable lattice oxygen activity for the methane partial oxidation. Moreover, LaNi 0.5 Ti 0.5 O 3- δ exhibits high cyclic stability in redox cycles. This work demonstrates that the regulation of oxygen species distribution and activity is feasible to tailor the reaction performance of oxygen carriers in chemical looping processes.

The development of polymer electrolyte membrane electrolysis of water is mainly limited by the high cost of noble metals and inadequate stability owing to the slow reaction kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction and the restrictions of strongly acidic operating environments. To improve the utilization of noble metals, we use Ti-doped SnO2 as a carrier to support active species IrO2. The results show that the introduction of Ti element can inhibit the grain growth and help to improve the electrical conductivity of SnO2. Electrochemical tests for the catalysts show that 40 wt % IrO2/TSO has the best mass-normalized charge (231.24 C g–1 IrO2) and current density (714.85 A g–1 IrO2) at 1.6 V with the overpotential of only 271 mV at 10 mA cm–2, which is attributed to the outstanding dispersion effect of Ti-doped SnO2 and the synergy between the active species and the introduction of Ti element. The comprehensive advantages exhibited by the Ti-doped SnO2 support provide an alternative solution to reduce the cost of noble metal catalysts by improving the catalytic activity and stability.

Cesium tungsten bronze (Cs x WO 3 ), a unique energy-saving material, has attracted great interest because of its excellent visible transmittance and near-infrared absorption. In order to improve its optical properties , the Ti doping modification was carried out in this work, and a series of Ti-doped Cs X WO 3 (Ti-Cs x WO 3 ) nanopowders were synthesized by a solvothermal reaction and post-annealing. The 1.71 at. % of Ti dopants achieved remarkable enhancement of both integral visible transmittance ( T lum , 380–780 nm) and near-infrared shielding efficiency ( Ψ NIR , 780–2500 nm) of Cs x WO 3 . The T lum and Ψ NIR of the 1.71 at. % Ti-Cs x WO 3 polymer film reaches 63.87 % and 76.90 %, respectively, higher by 51.88 % and 65.00 % than those of the Cs x WO 3 film. The improvement of T lum is attributed to the broadening of band gap and smaller size of the nanoparticles induced by Ti doping, and the enhanced Ψ NIR would result from the increased free electron concentration and energy levels of impurities. The incorporation of Ti elements renders Cs x WO 3 a promising application in the field of energy saving.

Chlorine evolution anodes are widely used in industrial electrolysis, whose electrocatalytic activity and stability need to be improved urgently in order to improve energy efficiency. In this study, Ti/IrRuSnSbOx electrodes were fabricated by thermal decomposition of hydrosol precursor solution. The microstructure and electrochemical behavior of the electrodes were investigated by material characterization and electrochemical tests. The results showed that the electrode with a total oxide loading of 1.1 ± 0.5 mg/cm2 had the lowest chlorine evolution potential (1.068 V vs SCE), the lowest Tafel slope (41.08 mV dec–1), and a long accelerating lifetime (405 h). The hydrosol process effectively improved the performance of the electrode by promoting the formation of oxygen vacancies and strengthening the stability of the solid solution structure. This study provided a facile method for preparing chlorine evolution electrodes with low cost, high activity, and high stability.

The acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) faces great difficulty in concurrently addressing the site-specific activity and stability of the up-to-date choice Ir-based catalysts. Herein, we adopted a new inverse doping strategy to devise a Ti atomic doping into the surficial IrO x /Ir matrix to investigate the boosting effect of Ir-O-Ti motifs toward OER. Notably, only 1.92 wt % Ti introduction leads to 3.6 times and an order of magnitude improvement in intrinsic activity and stability, respectively, ascribed to the creation of abundant Ir-O-Ti motifs. While the Ti sites donate electrons to weaken the Ir-O interaction and thereby ignite Ir sites activity via adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM), the restricted O–O bond formation in the lattice oxygen mechanism (LOM) and the widened stable region of Ir species help enhance the stability. This work provides a novel insight into the reactivity of atomic-level interface motifs in heterogeneous components, which inspires further design of advanced catalysts.

Entropy stabilization is an effective method to design and explore MAX phases with outstanding properties via tuning constituent elements and crystal structures, which have received considerable critical attention. Currently, some medium-/high-entropy (ME/HE) MAX phases, whose A layers are composed of Al, S, and magnetic elements, are reported, while few discussions about ME/HE-MAX phases with other A elements (e.g., Sn) are conducted. Herein, fully dense ME/HE-MAX phase bulks ((TiVNb) 2 SnC, (TiVNbZr) 2 SnC, and (TiVNbZrHf) 2 SnC) are designed and synthesized because of the chemical diversity of MAX phases. The results of Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and high-resolution scanning transmission electron microscopy-affiliated energy-dispersive spectrometer analysis comprehensively verify the crystal structure of ME/HE-MAX phases. Both the electrical conductivity and the charge carrier mobility are significantly lower than the reported correlation ternary MAX phases, due to the electron scattering and structural defects in ME/HE-MAX phase crystal structures. Similarly, the electron contribution of thermal conductivity is gradually declining; on the contrary, the phonon plays an increasingly dominant role as temperature increases. Owing to the richness in composition of MAX phases, herein, a composition design route for discovering new MAX phases and tuning their properties is indicated.

Iron- and manganese-based layered metal oxides, as cathodes for sodium ion batteries, have received widespread attention because of the low cost and high specific capacity. However, the Jahn-teller effect of Mn 3+ ions and the resulted unstable structure usually lead to continuously capacity decay. Herein, Titanium (Ti) has been successfully doped into Na 2/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 2/3 O 2 to suppress the Jahn-Teller distortion and improve both cycling and rate performance of sodium ion batteries. In situ high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction study shows that Ti-doped compound (Na 2/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 0.57 Ti 0.1 O 2 ) can maintain the single P2 phase without any phase transition during the whole charging/discharging process. Various electrochemical characterizations are also applied to explore the better kinetics of sodium ions transfer in the Na 2/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 0.57 Ti 0.1 O 2 . This work provides a comprehensive insight into the Ti-doping effects on the performance from both structural and electrokinetic perspectives.

A Ti/SnO2–Sb–Cu–Zn electrode was prepared for the electrocatalytic oxidation of Acid Red 18 (AR18). The addition of Zn to the coating results in smaller surface cracks and greater roughness. When Cu and Zn coexist, high-index crystal planes are generated on smaller-sized grains formed on the coating surface, which allows the coating surface to adsorb oxygen. Sb5+ and the adjacent Cu2+–Zn2+ on the surface of the Cu–Zn co-doped coating are the advantageous active sites for adsorbed oxygen. The electrode exhibits a larger electrochemically active surface area and smaller electrochemical reaction resistance. The appearance of high-index crystal planes is beneficial to improve the electrocatalytic activity of the electrode, although the oxygen evolution potential of the electrode is not greatly improved. Cu–Zn co-doping produces synergistic mineralisation and enhances the ability to degrade AR18, and ˙OH is the main active species. During the thermal decomposition of the coating, Zn induces Cu to form more active sites on the high-index crystal planes of SnO2, a phenomenon that may be responsible for the synergistic production of more reactive oxygen species on the electrode surface.

Tetracycline (TC) is widely-used antibiotic pollutant with high toxicity, refractory, persistence and bacteriostasis, and its removal from water needs to be enhanced. In this work, a novel Graphite-UiO-66(Zr)/Ti electrode was successfully prepared and evaluated for electrochemical oxidation degradation of TC. The electrochemical performance tests indicate the Graphite-UiO-66(Zr)/Ti electrode had higher electrochemical oxidation activity, which achieved higher TC removal efficiency (98.1% ± 1.5%) than Ti plate (65.2% ± 3.5%), Graphite-MIL-53(Al)/Ti electrode (79.5% ± 2.9%) and Graphite-MIL-100(Fe)/Ti electrode (89.0% ± 2.6%). The influence of operating condition was also systematically studied, and the optimized condition was pH 5.0, 20 mA/cm 2 current density and 0.1 M electrolyte (Na 2 SO 4 ). Through the liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS), the TC degradation pathway by Graphite-UiO-66(Zr)/Ti electrode oxidation was proposed. Under the •OH free radical oxidative decomposition effect, the double bond, phenolic group and amine group of TC were attacked. TC was transformed into intermediate product ① (m/z = 447), then was further degraded to intermediates ② (m/z = 401) and ③ (m/z = 417). The latter was fragmented into small fractions ④ (m/z = 194), ⑤but-2-enedioic acid (m/z = 116) and ⑥oxalic acid (m/z = 90, the proposed intermediate). In addition, TC removal remained at 89.6% ± 2.7% in the sixth cycle of operation, which confirmed the efficient reusability and stability for antibiotics removal from water.

Aspergillus fumigatus ( A. fumigatus ) is a representative significant pathogenic fungus and its spores are arduous to inactivate. Herein, an efficient and environmental-friendly photocatalytic method to eliminate A. fumigatus spores was demonstrated. Zn-Ti layered double hydroxide (Zn-Ti LDH), showed the admirable activity with above 99.34% disinfection rate under visible light illumination for 6 h. The compelling sterilization activities were ascribed to the potent synergistic effect of zinc ions (Zn 2+ ) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). The attack of these species caused the eradication of fungal cell structure, and resulting in the leakage of cytoplasmic as demonstrated by scanning electron microscope, confocal laser scanning microscope and potassium ions (K + ) leakage test. In addition, Zn-Ti LDH released Zn 2+ and ROS only under visible light irradiation, which endows the material light-triggered bactericidal property. Overall, these findings not only provide a green and sustainable way to control A. fumigatus contaminations, but also can be as an example to control other toxic fungi in future study.

Nitrate pollution is already a global problem, and the electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate is a promising technology for the remediation of wastewater and polluted water bodies. In this work, Co3O4/Ti electrodes were prepared by electrodeposition for the electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate. The morphology, chemical, and crystal structures of Co3O4/Ti and its catalytic activity were investigated. Then, the electrocatalytic nitrate reduction performance of Co3O4/Ti as the cathode was evaluated by monitoring the removal efficiencies of nitrate (NO3−-N) and total nitrogen (TN), generation of reduction products, current efficiency (CE), and energy consumption (EC) at different operating conditions. Under the catalysis of Co3O4/Ti, NO3− was reduced to N2 and NH4+, while no NO2− was produced. After the introduction of chloride ions and IrO2-RuO2/Ti as the anode, NH4+ was selectively oxidized to N2. The removal efficiencies of NO3−-N (at 100 mg/L) and TN after 2 h were 91.12% and 60.25%, respectively (pH 7.0; Cl− concentration, 2000 mg/L; current density, 15 mA/cm2). After 4 h of operation, NO3−-N and TN were completely removed. However, considering the EC and CE, a 2-h reaction was the most appropriate. The EC and CE were 0.10 kWh/g NO3−N and 40.3%, respectively, and electrocatalytic performance was maintained after 10 consecutive reduction cycles (2 h each). The cathode Co3O4/Ti, which is prepared by electrodeposition, can effectively remove NO3−-N, with low EC and high CE.
