Diamond/WC-Fe-Ni composite is a potential composition for impregnated diamond drill bits. It is necessary to avoid the graphitization of the diamond from Fe and Ni under the powder metallurgy process. Boron carbide (B 4 C) was coated on diamond, and diamond/WC-Fe-Ni composites were consolidated by hot pressing at different temperatures. The influences of sintering temperature and interfacial structure on bending strength and wear behavior were investigated. The bending strength for diamond/WC-Fe-Ni composite was dependent on matrix densification and interfacial graphitization. Un-coated diamond was eroded by Fe-Ni matrix and partially converted to graphite during the sintering process at all sintering temperatures. In opposite, B 4 C coating was beneficial to matrix densification at a lower sintering temperature, and delayed the appearance of graphitization to around 1300 °C. Therefore, the diamond/WC-Fe-Ni composites with B 4 C coating exhibited larger bending strength and better wear behavior at a relative low sintering temperature.

The conductive networks for electron hopping and migration constructed by one-dimensional (1D) composite absorbers are highly desirable to improve the electromagnetic (EM) wave attenuation capacity. Herein, the Ni@Co/C@polypyrrole (PPy) composites integrating the advantages of component and microstructure were fabricated. The addition of Co/C and PPy effectively optimized the impedance matching and improved the EM attenuation. Under the comprehensive impacts of multiple reflections/scattering, conduction loss and interface polarization, the Ni@Co/C@PPy composites showed superior EM wave absorption with the reflection loss (RL) value of −48.76 dB and the effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 5.10 GHz at a corresponding thickness of 2.0 mm. The largest EAB could reach 5.54 GHz (7.24–12.78 GHz) at the thickness of 2.2 mm. This work provides a great reference for fabricating 1D novel EM wave absorption materials.

Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted extensive attention owing to their unique electronic/physiochemical properties, and wide application potential in energy storage and conversion. However, 2D materials are often tendency to aggregate due to the strong van der Waals interactions, leading to gradually decrease of an efficient mass transfer pathway and accessible surface area for the electrolyte. Here, we demonstrate an efficient approach for large-scale production of a hybrid nanostructures (Ti3C2Tx/rGO) based on ultrathin MXene nanosheets anchored on layered reduced graphene (rGO) supported by porous Ni-foam via a plain chemical dipping method followed by high temperature annealing process. Ti3C2Tx/rGO electrode exhibits a porous structure, excellent ionic and electrical conductivities, and remarkable specific capacitance. Furthermore, it shows ultra-high cycle stability, for example, 88.70% of its specific capacity can be maintained through 3000 cycles. This kind of porous nanostructure and integrated design idea is significant to design other energy storage modules.

The endothermic hydrocarbon fuel catalytic cracking as an active cooling technology for aircraft engines needs to provide a higher heat sink to absorb more heat and at the same time produce less carbon deposits to ensure the continuous operation of the aircraft. In this paper, Ni nanoparticles embedded into SiO 2 aerogel is achieved by two different method, col-gel (Ni-co) and after impregnation (Ni-after) and firstly introduced to achieve high heat adsorption capability and low coke generation in the fuel cracking process through ethanol-assisted and TiN coating technology . The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and contact angle test results show that aerogel catalysts are modified successfully with excellent hydrophobicity and lipophilicity which indicates that aerogel catalysts could be well dispersed in n -decane. According to the SEM and N 2 adsorption-desorption, Ni-after remains similar three-dimensional structure with SiO 2 aerogel and shows better pore structure which result in higher cracking activity (4.04 MJ/kg at 750 °C, 3.5 MPa) than Ni-co. Furthermore, the most efficient coke inhibition in supercritical catalytic cracking of n -decane is achieved by incorporating a little ethanol over TiN coating and high catalytic activity could be maintained within 50 min at 750 °C, 3.5 MPa and the coke generation is decreased by more than 90.0% (9.67–0.42 mg/cm 2 ·g) compared with Ni-after catalytic cracking.

A facile strategy for the preparation of composites with homogeneous distribution of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in Ni(OH) 2 was proposed. The electrostatic attraction between positively charged Ni(OH) 2 monolayer nanosheets and negatively charged MWCNTs was utilised to self-assemble the composites. The results of electrochemical measurement on the composite containing 30 wt% MWCNTs indicated that the homogeneous composition of MWCNTs in composite significantly reduced the electrical resistance and promoted the electrochemical utilisation of Ni(OH) 2 . As a result, the composite presented high electrochemical performance: having specific capacitance of 1568.8 F g −1 at low current density of 2.4 A g −1 and keeping a relatively high specific capacitance of 781.8 F g −1 at high current density of 81.7 A g −1 . Based on the results in this works, it is hoped that the adopted strategy could provide a promising idea for the preparation of composites with homogeneous distribution of individual components.

A series of nonprecious monometallic Ni/AlSBA-15 and bimetallic Ni M (M = Zn, Ga, Cu, or Fe)/AlSBA-15 catalysts were prepared using a urea precipitation method and applied to the semihydrogenation of phenylacetylene. The catalysts were characterized by various techniques, showing that the Ni particle size of catalyst can be tuned by adjusting the Al content, and NiZn and NiGa supported catalysts exhibited geometric and electronic effects that originated from the bimetallic alloy. Among all the catalysts studied, NiZn 3 /AlSBA-15, with a turnover frequency of 10.89 s −1 comparable to that of precious Pd-based catalysts, presented the highest selectivity to styrene (90.3%) at nearly 100% conversion of phenylacetylene in semibatch operation. This catalyst was further evaluated in a continuous fixed-bed reactor for semihydrogenation of a model C 8 aromatic fraction of pyrolysis gasoline (a mixture of phenylacetylene, styrene, ethylbenzene and xylene), which aimed at assessing its practical application of recovering styrene from pyrolysis gasoline. The results showed that at complete conversion of phenylacetylene, the styrene concentration in the product was always kept at a stable level and higher than its initial concentration over 100 h of time on stream, demonstrating high selectivity and good stability of NiZn 3 /AlSBA-15. Finally, the application of NiZn 3 /AlSBA-15 was extended to other phenylacetylene derivatives.

Ni-Cu/TiN-ZrO2 nanocomposite coating was pulse electrodeposited by incorporation of Cu, TiN and ZrO2 simultaneously in Ni deposits from a citrate bath in the presence of additives. The surface morphology, structural and electrochemical properties of Ni-Cu/TiN-ZrO2 nanocomposite coating were evaluated. Results illustrated that the nanocomposite coating exhibits nodular-like structure with aggregated granules dispersed on its surface. The anti-corrosion performance of Ni-Cu deposits could be reinforced much by incorporation of TiN-ZrO2 nanoparticles. The surface of the coating contains Ni, Cu, Ti, Zr, O and C elements and indicates the formation of the oxide layer. The corrosion resistance of the nanocomposite coating is not only dependent on the current density and duty cycle, but also their combination. The Ni-Cu/TiN-ZrO2 nanocomposite coating electrodeposited at duty cycle of 70% and current density of 4 A dm−2 has the highest anti-corrosion performance. In comparison with duty cycle and current density, the effect of frequency on corrosion resistance is not much.

With the depletion of non-regenerated energy and the increasing awareness of environmental protection, renewable energy developing has become a key subject of research. Hydrogen as a kind of clean energy has aroused much attention. In this study, hydrogen production from bio-oil derived phenolic compound in aqueous phase was studied. Hydrotalcite-derived Ni/Zn/Al catalysts with different metallic compositions were synthesised and screened for aqueous-phase reforming (APR) of phenol. The physiochemical characterisations of hydrotalcite-derived Ni/Zn/Al samples were detected by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and N 2 -sorption. In the calcined hydrotalcite-derived Ni 5.3 /Zn 2.7 /Al samples, most of the metal oxides exist in the form of rock solid and wurtzite type phase. In order to optimise the reaction condition of APR of phenol, the impacts of initial phenol concentration, reaction pressure and reaction temperature during the APR of phenol were investigated. It was found that increasing the concentration of phenol could enhance the side reaction and decrease the selectivity of hydrogen, while enhancing the reaction pressure was not favourable for hydrogen production. Moreover, proper reaction temperature was necessary for APR of phenol to produce hydrogen over hydrotalcite-derived Ni/Zn/Al catalysts.

Water pollution has become a great problem and aroused worldwide concern. As a new class of materials, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) exhibit significant potential for wastewater treatment due to their high surface area, porosity, stability and tunability. In this work, flower-like hierarchical Ni-Zn MOF microspheres were synthesized via a facile solvothermal method. The mole ratio of Ni to Zn had a great influence on the morphology and microstructure of the final products. With the increase mole ratio of Zn to Ni, the morphology of MOFs gradually changed from spheroidal structure to rod-like structure. Using the Congo red (CR) experiment to evaluate the adsorption performance, Ni-Zn MOF displayed superior adsorption capacity towards CR (460.90 mg g −1 ), compared with Ni MOF (276.70 mg g −1 ) and Zn MOF (132.20 mg g −1 ). Besides the tuned morphology and pore structure, electron transferring from Zn species to Ni species would also favor the physicochemical adsorption of Ni-Zn MOF towards CR.

An effective Ni/CeO 2 catalyst prepared by the polyol reduction method for degrading phenol into CH 4 , H 2 and CO 2 in supercritical water (SCW) was developed. About 80% carbon gasification efficiency can be achieved at 525 °C and 60 min with 5 wt% phenol, 0.098 kg/m 3 water density and 0.5 g Ni/CeO 2 /g phenol catalyst, forming CH 4 and H 2 as the main gaseous products. Comparison study indicated that the efficiency of present Ni/CeO 2 catalyst was about 20% higher than that of a commercial catalyst, i.e., Ni/SiO 2 Al 2 O 3 from Sigma-Aldrich with 65 wt%Ni, at a reaction conditions of 500 °C and 30 min. The characterization analyses of BET, TPR, XRD , XPS and TEM indicated that there was a NiCe alloy formed in Ni/CeO 2 , which could be important to enhance the activities of the carbon gasification efficiencies and gas yields. A kinetic modelings were conducted and the results showed that the lnA and the activation energy (Ea) of gasification were 7.1 ± 0.5 and 58.1 ± 3.2 kJ/mol for the gaseous product, and were 2.6 ± 0.9 and Ea is 36.6 ± 5.6 kJ/mol for the char formation , respectively. The present Ni-based-metal Ni/CeO 2 catalyst is cheaper and has a potential application for the gasification to convert phenol into gases fuels in SCW process.

In this work, we report the discovery of a new Ni-based quasi-one-dimensional selenide: Cs0.9Ni3.1Se3. This compound adopts the TlFe3Te3-type structure with space group P63/m, which consists of infinite [Ni3Se3] chains with face-sharing Ni6 octahedra along the c direction. The lattice parameters are calculated as a = 9.26301(4) Å and c = 4.34272(2) Å, with the Ni–Ni distance in the ab plane as 2.582(3) Å, suggesting the formation of a Ni–Ni metallic bond in this compound. Interestingly, it has been found that Cs0.9Ni3.1Se3 is nonstoichiometric, which is different from the other TlFe3Te3-type phases reported so far. Structure refinement shows that the extra Ni atom in the structure may occupy the 2c site, together with Cs atoms. Cs0.9Ni3.1Se3 shows metallic behavior with monotonously decreased resistivity with temperatures from 300 to 0.5 K. Measurements on the magnetic susceptibility display a spin-glass state below 7 K. The specific heat curve gives a Sommerfeld coefficient of 14.6 mJ·K–2·mol–1 and a Debye temperature of 143.6 K. The discovery of this new compound enriches the diversity of low-dimensional materials in a transition-metal-based family and also sheds light on the structure–property relationship of this system.

Alkaline-promoted of NiAl–montmorillonite (NiAl–Mt) catalysts were prepared by ion-exchange method, tested in ethanol steam reforming (ESR) for hydrogen production, and characterized by a combination analysis of XRD, TPR, SEM, HR–TEM, EDS and N 2 adsorption–desorption. Characterization results indicated that the textural properties of the as-prepared catalysts are strongly dependent on the alkaline treatment. More importantly, a clear improvement on stability and catalytic activity, especially for the high selectivity to hydrogen, was observed in ESR. For NiAl–Mt/NaOH catalyst, ∼74.7% selectivity of hydrogen was kept at 773 K during 10-h test, while that of NiAl–hydrotalcite (NiAl) catalyst decreased from 20.4% to 5.3% within 10 h, and the selectivity of hydrogen on NiAl–Mt was ∼55.1%, accompanying with byproducts of acetaldehyde and ethylene. The improved activity and stability were attributed to the neutralization of acid sites by alkaline treatment, which accelerated the dehydrogenation and suppressed the dehydration of ethanol.
