In this study, the Mo-promoted Ir/SiO 2 (Ir-MoO x /SiO 2 ) catalysts combined with the zeolite HZSM-5 were used for the direct conversion of microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) to liquid fuel (C 5 /C 6 alkanes) in n-dodecane/H 2 O system. A synergistic effect was formed between the partially reduced MoO x species and the Ir particles, which effectively promoted the catalytic activity of Ir/SiO 2 catalyst. When the Mo/Ir molar ratio was 0.5, a high yield of C 5 /C 6 alkanes (91.7%) was achieved at 210 ℃ for 12 h. In addition, the main component of C 5 /C 6 alkanes was n-hexane, which was proven to be obtained by the hydrogenolysis of the key intermediate, sorbitol, formed from the hydrolysis and hydrogenation of MCC.

Superhydrophobic coatings are highly promising for protecting material surfaces and for wide applications. In this study, superhydrophobic composites, comprising a rhombic-dodecahedral zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8@SiO2), have been manufactured onto AZ31 magnesium alloy via chemical etching and dip-coating methods to enhance stability and corrosion resistance. Herein, we report on a simple strategy to modify hydrophobic hexadecyltrimethoxysilan (HDTMS) on ZIF-8@SiO2 to significantly improve the property of repelling water. We show that various liquids can be stable on its surface and maintain a contact angle higher than 150°. The morphologies and chemical composition were characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FI-IR). In addition, the anticorrosion and antiattrition properties of the film were assessed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and potentiodynamic polarization and HT, respectively. Such a coating shows promising potential as a material for large-scale fabrication.

Fabrication of adsorbent can play an important role in the adsorption desulfurization technology as a most promising deeply desulfurization technology. Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 aerogel composites were synthesized, where the easy oxidation of Ce 3+ into Ce 4+ was realized by adding hydrogen peroxide, and were utilized to remove thiophenics from model fuels and aromatics. Compared with Ag 2 O/SiO 2 and CeO 2 /SiO 2 , the adsorption uptake and solvent washing regeneration performance of Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 for thiophene was obviously enhanced, and the adsorption selectivity for thiophene in the presence of aromatics was relatively close to CeO 2 /SiO 2 , attributed to that Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 adsorbed thiophenics via the π-Ag + complexation and S-Ce bonding, where the latter was main interaction. However, there was no synergistic interaction between Ag and Ce species acted as adsorption sites in the Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 , which could be supported by that the chemical state of Ag and Ce in Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 was consistent with corresponding one in Ag 2 O/SiO 2 and CeO 2 /SiO 2 , respectively. Among Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 aerogel composites with different molar ratios of Si/Ce, Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 -50 performed the best, its adsorption uptake for thiophene, benzothiophene and dibenzothiophene from model fuels arrived at 20.4, 21.8 and 27.2 mg-S/g ads , respectively. Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption isotherm models, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model could well describe the adsorption of thiophenics over Ag 2 O/CeO 2 /SiO 2 -50.

Separating oil/water mixtures via superhydrophobic stainless steel mesh (SSM) is a kind of efficient methods of treating oily wastewater, and the superhydrophobic SSM with a low cost, simple fabrication process and robust usability remains a challenge. Herein, urushiol-based benzoxazine (U-D) with a strong substrate adhesion and low surface free energy was used to anchor SiO 2 particles on the SSM surface to obtain a durable superhydrophobic SSM (PU-D/SiO 2 /SSM) through a simple dip-coating process, meanwhile, epoxy resin was also introduced to further improve the adhesion between coating and SSM. PU-D/SiO 2 /SSM could successfully separate various immiscible oil-water mixtures with a separation efficiency of over 96% and a flux up to 27 100 L/m 2 h only by gravity, respectively. Especially, the modified SSM could effectively remove water from water-in-oil emulsion with a separation efficiency of 99.7%. Moreover, PU-D/SiO 2 /SSM had an outstanding reusability, whose water contact angle and separation efficiency only slightly decreased after 20 cycles of separating oil/water mixture. In addition, the modified SSM also displayed a satisfactory abrasion resistance, chemical stability and self-cleaning property. Thereby, the robust PU-D/SiO 2 /SSM prepared by cheap raw materials and facile dip-coating method exhibits a high potential for separating oil/water mixtures.

Controlling both CO and NOx pollutants without additional cost is necessary but challenging, especially in industrial flue gas with complex components. Previous studies mainly focused on the effect of O 2 and SO 2 on the CO oxidation side reaction and valence state of Ir species on various catalysts, while neglecting the impact on NO conversion pathway. Herein, we propose an "ineffective reaction pathway" in the presence of O 2 with nitrate as an intermediate according to the results of in situ DRIFTS and DFT. And we also reveal the contribution of SO 2 in inhibiting the adsorption of O 2 and promoting the selective adsorption of NO and CO even at lower injection concentrations, based on the oxidation of SO 2 on Ir(111). This is quite a favorable characteristic for the treatment of industrial flue gas, resolving the long–standing dispute on the involvement of these components in the CO–SCR reaction. Under specific conditions (CO/NO=20, O 2 =5%, SO 2 =200 ppm) at 250 °C, the NOx conversion is as high as 78%. These results will contribute to the development of more efficient catalysts in the future for simultaneously controlling two pollutants (CO and NOx).

Polyimide (PI) is a special engineering plastic, widely involved in mechanical components, instruments, and petrochemicals. However, single PI material is inevitably subject to wear and tear in practice, which leads to weakened material properties. In this work, Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 was prepared to enhance the wear resistance and lubrication properties of PI by intercalating SiO 2 into the interlayer of Ti 3 C 2 T x sheets. Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 /PI composites were fabricated in two steps to test the tribological performances. SiO 2 particles change the form of interfacial friction from sliding to rolling, thus relieving direct friction between material and steel ball. So, the composites have a minimum COF (COF = 0.33) when the content of Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 is 0.80 wt%. Moreover, the average value of wear rate was 0.24 × 10 −5 mm 3 /(N·m) when Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 content was 1.60 wt%, which was 91.0% lower compared to the PI matrix. During the friction process, the abrasive chips of the material migrate to the surface of the steel ball to form a transfer film, which protects the material and thus reduces the wear rate. Therefore, the hybrids Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 are effective and important wear-resistant agents and solid lubricants to improve the wear resistance and lubricity of PI or other polymer materials. Highlights SiO 2 insert Ti 3 C 2 T x is a key factor in changing sliding friction into rolling friction, effectively reducing the COF. The average wear rate was 91.0% lower than that of the polyimide matrix when Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 content was 1.60 wt%. The minimum COF of Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 /PI composites reached 0.33 when the content of Ti 3 C 2 T x @SiO 2 was 0.80 wt%. The transfer film effectively reduces further wear of the material during friction.

A simple hydrothermal procedure is introduced, which leads to the successful synthesis of a new composite material with fine CeO 2 -ZrO 2 nanocrystallites embedded in amorphous and porous SiO 2 matrices. The composite material possesses an extraordinary high thermal stability. After being calcined at 1000 °C, it retains CeO 2 -ZrO 2 nanocrystallites of the size around 5 nm, a BET-specific surface area of 165 m 2 /g, and an oxygen storage capacity of 468 μmol/g. No phase segregation for CeO 2 -ZrO 2 nanocrystallites is detected and the SiO 2 matrices remain not crystallized. The composite material shows a great potential as a support of three-way catalyst, as evidenced in catalytic tests with supported Pt.

Oil pollution poses severe threats to both ecosystems and human health. This study utilized electrospinning and carbonization processes to fabricate a SiO2-TiO2-C nanofiber membrane (STCNFM) exhibiting photocatalytic self-cleaning properties designed explicitly for oil-water separation. These membranes possess nanoscale rough structures, endowing them with superoleophilicity (0°) and hydrophobicity (138°). Addressing the limitations associated with traditional ceramic membranes, particularly in terms of stability and reproducibility, cyclic experiments confirm the significant stability and reproducibility of this composite membrane, ensuring reliable long-term applications for continuous oil-water separation. Leveraging the synergistic effect of TiO2 and the carbon fiber substrate, STCNFMs-5 demonstrate exceptional separation performance and notable self-cleaning capabilities. Following a 2-h exposure to ultraviolet light, the membrane's flux is restored to its original level. STCNFMs offer a promising solution for efficiently separating oil-water mixtures and emulsions, holding potential importance in water treatment and resource recovery endeavors.

Hydrophobic SiO 2 -supported Fe-Ni bimetallic catalysts were synthesized by facile hydrothermal method, followed by grind-mixing process. The as-synthesized nanoparticles were appointed as robust catalysts in the methanation process to improve the calorific value of the natural gas. Notably, the functionalization of SiO 2 surface with a hydrophobic layer was performed using a fluorinated alkyl group, as a critical step to prohibit the water-gas shift (WGS) reaction and consequently produce low amount of CO 2 content during the methanation process. The obtained catalytic results demonstrated that Fe 1.5 Ni 1.5 catalyst exhibited an excellent CO conversion of 95.2% at 320 °C with a natural gas calorific value of 56.4 MJ Nm −3 , which is much higher than the previously reported results when traditional Ni-based catalysts used. Moreover, the modified hydrophobic catalyst exhibited a lower CO 2 selectivity compared with unmodified one. This study provides a new and promising insight for the design and development of high-calorie SNG product.

Carboxylate systems with inert oxide, namely, MIL-101(Fe)/SiO 2 , have been prepared by hydrothermal reactions and characterized. MIL-101(Fe)/SiO 2 exhibits superior catalytic activities for p -nitrophenol reduction with a high conversion of 93.8% in 4 min. It is obvious that the catalytic activity for reduction of nitroaromatic compounds is enhanced, however, the proportion of active components on a catalyst is reduced. One hypothesis is that the interfacial effect between SiO 2 and MIL-101(Fe) complexes helps to increase the catalytic activity. The increase of the interface component greatly improved the free energy of the interface of the solid, and the structure-related properties such as the ion valence state and the electron motion transfer of the interface have undergone considerable changes. In addition, the stability of the catalyst under the conditions of different acid-base was also investigated. It is supposed to broaden the application of the interface effect of the complex with SiO 2 .

Catalytic efficiency in synthesis of vitamin E succinate was dramatically increased via the preparation of robust catalyst and the improvement of reaction system. 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) was covalently immobilized on nano-SiO 2 to avoid the catalyst contamination of the product and permit the easy recycling of DMAP. Then, a hexane-acetone mixed solvent system was firstly introduced to replace the traditional single-solvent system, which was employed to improve the activity of immobilized DMAP derivative and the substrate solubility of the reaction system. The highest vitamin E succinate yield of 94% was achieved. In addition, the recyclability and stability of the immobilized DMAP derivative was excellent, the yield of vitamin E succinate had no obvious loss and remained 90% after recycling 20 times. The excellent results make this technology be a promising candidate for the industrial production of vitamin E succinate.

Graphical A series of functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) immobilized on B-doped mesoporous SiO 2 catalysts were fabricated for effectively converting CO 2 into cyclic carbonates under metal-absent and cocatalyst-free conditions A series of functionalized ionic liquids (ILs) immobilized on B-doped mesoporous SiO 2 catalysts were fabricated for effectively converting CO 2 into cyclic carbonates under metal-absent and cocatalyst-free conditions. Functionalized imidazolium ILs were in-situ synthesized by Debus-Rdziszewski imidazole reaction. Among the prepared catalysts, 5B−SiO 2 −NH 2 −3−I catalyst owing to the synergistic effects of nucleophile, Lewis acid-base and hydroxyl hydrogen bond donors in the catalyst, presented the better catalytic activity for propylene epoxide to the product of propylene carbonate with 99% yield and selectivity at 110 °C and 2 MPa CO 2 . The catalyst also displayed moderate yield for various mono-substituent epoxides. Besides, the gradual decline in the product yield during consecutive runs could be easily refreshed by aqueous acidic solution washing.
