The extensive use of fossil fuels has resulted in large amounts of carbon dioxide being emitted into the air and has led to a number of environmental problems. Given the abundance of both carbon dioxide and sunlight in the earth’s atmosphere, converting solar energy into chemical energy by photothermally catalyzing carbon dioxide hydrogenation to produce methanol is a potential strategy. By using the coprecipitation approach, a Ni-doped In2O3 catalyst was created, and its compositional valence, morphology, specific surface area, band gap, and other properties were assessed by XRD, XPS, TEM, BET, H2-TPR, CO2-TPD, and UV–vis characterization. Methanol production from carbon dioxide hydrogenation is stable and effective under lower pressure (1 MPa) photothermal settings, with an efficiency of 63.4 gMeOHh–1kgcat–1, which is approximately 120% higher than that of pure In2O3 under the same circumstances.

MgH₂ is one of the most promising materials for solid hydrogen storage and is environmentally friendly primarily owing to its high mass hydrogen storage density (7.6 %). However, the application and development of MgH₂ are limited by its sluggish kinetics, requiring high processing temperatures. In this study, we prepared Ni/Co-co-doped Ti 2 VC 2 bimetallic MXene nanosheets via etching and the hydrothermal method. These nanosheets were then doped into MgH₂, resulting in drastically improved hydrogen storage properties. The MgH₂-based composite hydrogen storage materials doped with 10 wt% Ni/Co–Ti 2 VC₂ (TVCNC) commenced hydrogen emission from 183 °C and could emit 6.65 wt% hydrogen at 300 °C. During the rehydrogenation test, the composites could still absorb hydrogen at 5.0 wt% within a 10 min window at a hydrogen pressure of 20 bar at 125 °C. Moreover, the hydrogen absorption and emission kinetics of the doped MgH₂ were considerably improved. This improvement could be ascribed to the significantly increased specific surface area of the MXene nanosheets after etching, which increased the number of active sites on the surface to accelerate the reaction, thereby accelerating hydrogen adsorption and emission. In addition, the migration of electrons between the multivalent Ti ions as well as between Ni and Co helped accelerate bond cleavage between magnesium and hydrogen, thereby enhancing the kinetic properties. Ni/Co co-doping produced Mg 2 Ni alloys with magnesium via hydrogen adsorption and emission, thus improving the reaction kinetics of the composites.

Non-modified Pd/PDA/Ni foam, hydrophobic modified F 9 -Pd/PDA/Ni foam, and F 17 -Pd/PDA/Ni foam catalysts are successfully prepared and used for NB hydrogenation in micropacked bed reactors (μPBRs). The catalytic performance increases with the addition of water in the water–methanol mixed solvent. In the mixed solvent with 50 v/v% water, F 17 -Pd/PDA/Ni foam can almost completely convert nitrobenzene (NB) with a yield of 95.9% at a mild 45°C. As the solvent contact angle of catalysts increases (87.5–141.5°), the enhancement ratios of NB conversion and AN yield are 28.9%–92.4% and 31.4%–106.5%, respectively. The space–time yield of AN in μPBRs reaches 1.873 kg·L −1 ·h −1 ·g −1 , which is 1–2 orders of magnitude higher than that of conventional reactors. The kinetic model of NB hydrogenation is established at the water–methanol system in μPBRs. The hydrophobicity of catalysts significantly improves the reaction rate of NB hydrogenation, and the reaction rate constant is increased by 69.9%.

Using an l-arginine (LA)-functionalized Pd–Ni catalyst, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was directly synthesized via a self-designed microreactor at ambient temperature and pressure. The yield of H2O2 achieved 574.31g kgcat–1 h–1, with the concentration of H2O2 in the solution reaching 4.05 wt % per hour. After five cycles and online activation, the LA functionalized Pd–Ni catalyst maintained high H2O2 catalytic activity. The catalytic activity evaluation experiments, characterization results, and simulation studies demonstrated that Ni doping and LA-functionalization synergistically modulate the electronic structure of the active Pd component. This modulation increases the concentration of Pd2+ at the active sites, effectively inhibits the dissociation of the O–O bond in O2*, OOH*, and HOOH* species, thereby enhancing the catalytic performance for H2O2 production. This study proposes a systematic strategy for the design of Pd-based catalysts to directly synthesize highly efficient H2O2.

Catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) to 4-aminophenol (4-AP) over high-performance non-noble metal catalysts is attracting intensive attention. Herein, we report a graphene supported Cu@Ni bimetallic nanowires catalyst by a facile liquid phase reduction method with the assistance of an external magnetic field. The morphology and structure of the composite are studied by SEM, TEM and XPS. The vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) is used to analyze its magnetic properties . Owing to the synergistic effect of graphene and bimetallic nanowires, the catalyst shows superior catalytic performance and excellent stability. The results of catalysis exhibit an extraordinary rate constant (1.16 min −1 ) and activity factor (5.81 min −1 mg −1 ) at room temperature, which are much higher than a majority of non-noble metal catalysts, even noble metal catalysts. Also, compared with noble metal catalyst, the novel catalyst possesses ferromagnetism , which facilitates the separation of catalyst and reaction system, and guarantees recyclability. Moreover, a possible synergistic catalytic mechanism based on the fact that electron transfer between copper-nickel nanowires and graphene has been proposed. It is believed that the novel catalyst has a great importance for the application of nanowires in the field of catalysis.

LaFeO 3 has emerged as a highly promising candidate for gas sensors, photocatalysts, catalysts, and microwave absorber applications. LaNiO 3 is a highly prospective system for CO oxidation, photodegradation of tetracycline, ammonia decomposition, magnetic refrigeration, and oxygen evolution reaction. Doping LaFeO 3 with Ni is an efficient approach to tailor its crystal structure, electronic structure, as well as magnetic and electrical properties. A simple electrospinning and annealing way were used to fabricate LaFe 1−x Ni x O 3 nanofibers, such as LaFe 0.9 Ni 0.1 O 3 , LaFe 0.7 Ni 0.3 O 3 , LaFe 0.5 Ni 0.5 O 3 , LaFe 0.3 Ni 0.7 O 3 , and LaFe 0.1 Ni 0.9 O 3 . The structural transition from orthorhombic phase to rhombohedral phase were suggested by Rietveld refined XRD patterns. A Quantum Design SQUID vibrating sample magnetometer was employed to characterize the magnetic characteristics of these fabricated nanofibers. Magnetic properties of LaFe 0.9 Ni 0.1 O 3 and LaFe 0.7 Ni 0.3 O 3 were dominated by Fe 3+ –O–Fe 3+ antiferromagnetism. LaFe 0.5 Ni 0.5 O 3 exhibited intense competition between Fe 3+ –O–Fe 3+ , Ni 3+ –O–Fe 3+ , and Ni 3+ –O–Ni 3+ interactions. The magnetic behaviors of LaFe 0.3 Ni 0.7 O 3 and LaFe 0.1 Ni 0.9 O 3 were dominated by Ni 3+ –O–Ni 3+ exchange, showing paramagnetic state. The findings of this research can provide insights into the structure–property relationships in LaFe 1−x Ni x O 3 nanofibers and offer a materials design perspective for manipulating magnetic interactions.

Ni(OH)2 has low production cost and high theoretical specific capacity, while on account of the poor electronic conductivity, it shows inferior electrochemical performance including cycling stability and rate capability. This work focuses on a composite material that is in situ grown Ni(OH)2 nanosheets on reduced graphene oxide (rGO), and employing the fewer-defect rGO to build a three-dimensional conductive network provides outstanding conductivity. The specific capacitances (Cm) of the Ni(OH)2/rGO (NHG) electrode are 2776 F·g–1 at 2 A·g–1 and even 1570 F·g–1 at 50 A·g–1, demonstrating remarkable rate capability. It indicates that the combination of the nano grown Ni(OH)2 and rGO conductive substrate shortens the ion diffusion path and increases the electron transfer rate; hence, the composite rate capability has been significantly improved. The composite materials and active carbon were combined to be an asymmetric supercapacitor, which had a high energy density of 39.24 Wh·kg–1 at 1962 W·kg–1. After 10,000 cycles at 5 A·g–1, the capacity retains 91.4%.

In the present work, TiN nanoparticle reinforced Ni-Co alloy coatings have been synthesized by pulse current electrodeposition under the assistance of magnetic and ultrasonic agitation. Various analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), atomic force microscope (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to explore the effects of current densities and agitation modes on the coating composition, morphology and structure of the electrodeposits. The corrosion resistance of the composite coating was examined by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in 3.5 wt% NaCl solution. The electrodeposits prepared under magnetic stirring exhibit nodular-protrusion morphology. The ultrasonic-assisted electrodeposited Ni-Co/TiN coatings are flatter, finer, and denser compared to that of magnetic stirring. The agitation mode affects the Co and TiN content in the composite coatings. The preferred orientation was (111) texture, which was gradually changed to (200) plane as the current density increased. The crystallite size was 14–17 nm, 11–14 nm for the magnetic and ultrasonic-assisted electrodeposited Ni-Co/TiN coatings, respectively. The roughness of the samples prepared under ultrasonic agitation was lower than that of magnetic stirring. EIS measurements show that the composite coating prepared at 6 A dm −2 under ultrasonic assistance exhibits the best corrosion resistance with maximum R ct during the whole immersion period. The ultrasonic-assisted electrodeposited Ni-Co/TiN coating has a denser structure and better corrosion resistance than that prepared under mechanical stirring.

α-Ni(OH)2 is an ideal candidate material for a supercapacitor except for its low conductivity and poor stability. In this work, BO2–-intercalated α-NixCo(1–x)(OH)2 is synthesized by a hydrothermal method at a low cost. The Co dopant can decrease the charge-transfer resistance and enhance the cyclic stability. The special unsaturated electronic state of BO2– enhances the bonding with metal ions and attracts water molecules. Thus, the BO2– ions support the hydroxide layers as pillars and create efficient paths for proton transportation, optimizing the utilization of α-Ni(OH)2. The three-dimensional (3D) flowerlike morphology supplies an enormous number of active sites, and r-GO is added to improve the conductivity. As a result, the modified α-Ni(OH)2 exhibits the specific capacitance of 2179, 1592, and 1423 F·g–1 at 1, 20, and 40 A·g–1, respectively, showing improved rate performance. Matching with the commercial activated carbon (AC) as an anode, the asymmetric capacitor delivers an energy density of 40.66 W·h·kg–1 when its power density is 187.06 W·kg–1. Meanwhile, it retains 81.5% capacitance of the initial cycle at 5 A·g–1 after 3000 cycles. With conductivity enhanced and structure stabilized, the modified α-Ni(OH)2 confronts broader fields of application.

A novel Ni nanoparticle-MoS 2 nanosheet hybrid was prepared by chemically reducing Ni nanoparticles on MoS 2 nanosheet for the non-enzymatic detection of glucose. The morphology and structure of the Ni-MoS 2 hybrid were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The results indicated that Ni nanoparticles with an average diameter of 6 nm were successfully deposited on MoS 2 nanosheet. Electrocatalytic activity of the as-prepared nanomaterials towards glucose oxidation was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and amperometric measurement in alkaline media. An excellent sensitivity value of 1824 μA mM −1 cm −2 with a wide linear range (up to 4 mM) and low detection limit of 0.31 μM were gained by Ni-MoS 2 hybrid fabricated sensor. The superior catalytic activity and low expense make Ni-MoS 2 hybrid very promising for applications in direct sensing of glucose.

Hierarchical macro-mesoporous Ni(OH)2 were prepared by hydrothermal treatment of Ni(NO3)2 with dicyandiamide. This Ni(OH)2 nanostructure can be transformed to mesoporous NiO via calcination at 300°C. The structure, morphology and textural properties of the as-synthesized Ni(OH)2 and NiO were characterized. The electrochemical property and electrochemical sensing performance toward glucose detection were investigated. Owing to the unique macro-mesoporous structure, the Ni(OH)2 nanostructure could provide amperometric sensing of glucose with wide linear range (0.01–8.3 mM), high sensitivity of 243 μA mM cm−2 and low detection limit of 1 μM. Moreover, this glucose sensor also exhibited excellent stability, good selectivity and reproducibility.
