Co–Mo–S based catalysts have promising applications in both the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and hydrodesulfurization (HDS). Herein, Co–Mo–S catalyst and Co–Mo–S catalyst with and without NaBH4 modification have been successfully synthesized by a simple hydrothermal synthesis method. Co–Mo–S catalysts with NaBH4 modification show better catalytic activity towards both HDS and the HER. The phase purity, morphology, crystal structures and electron valence distribution of the catalysts with and without NaBH4 modification were studied by experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations. The catalysts without NaBH4 modification are mostly 2H-MoS2, while the catalysts without NaBH4 modification have 1T-MoS2, and 1T-MoS2 is exposed to more active sites, which will be conducive to the results of HDS performance of the catalyst. DFT calculations investigated the required activation energies of 1T-MoS2 and 2H-MoS2 for HDS and HER, respectively. The activation energy required for both HDS and H2 generation of 1T-MoS2 is significantly lower than that for the 2H-MoS2 structure.

Defects, such as pores, microcracks, and thermal damage, pose significant challenges in the selective laser melting (SLM) process of diamond reinforced metal matrix composites. To address these issues, this study utilizes Mo-coated diamond particles prepared via salt bath plating for SLM processing of CoCr-diamond composites. The SLM process parameters including laser power, scanning speed, and hatch spacing were systematically optimized using the response surface method (RSM). Subsequently, the microstructure and mechanical properties of the SLMed CoCr-diamond composites were thoroughly investigated. Notably, a protective layer of Mo 2 C is formed on the surface of diamond particles during the salt bath plating process. When compared to the SLMed CoCr-15 vol% Mo-uncoated diamond composite, the Mo coating significantly enhances the compressive strength by 69 % and flexural strength by an impressive 345 % for the CoCr-15 vol% Mo-coated diamond composite.

The development of highly efficient nanomaterial-based mimetic enzymes is much needed to replace natural enzymes due to their low cost, high stability and efficient catalytic ability. Herein, multiple Mo-doped CeO2 nanoparticles (Mo/CeO2 NPs) with different molar ratios of Mo were synthesized using a facile microwave-assisted method. For characterizing the as-prepared Mo/CeO2 NPs, XRD, TEM, HRTEM, BET and XPS have been performed systematically. The peroxidase-like activity of Mo/CeO2 NPs was investigated, and they exhibited enhanced peroxidase-like activity in comparison to that of pure CeO2 NPs, the best peroxidase-like activity was obtained for the Mo/CeO2 NPs when the molar ratio of Mo was 9%. On the basis of the high activity of Mo/CeO2 NPs, the reaction provides a simple, sensitive and selective method for colorimetric detection of glucose with the detection limit of 4 × 10−7 mol L−1 and in a dynamic range from 5 × 10−7 to 5 × 10−5 mol L−1. This work will pave a way for high throughput synthesis of other ultra-small doped metal oxide nanoparticles, which have bright prospects in biomedical analysis.

The design of novel practical catalysts is critical for the blossoming of biodiesel green-energy, in which Mo-based catalysts are of particular interest. In this work, an in-situ synthesis method was proposed to obtain a combo Mo-based ionic liquid and SAPO-11 catalyst. The catalyst presents both highly dispersed MoS 2 as hydrodeoxygenation active sites and acidic sites for isomerization. MoS 2 with a few fine layers can be identified based on TEM images and the Brønsted acid sites are dominant based on Pyridine-IR analysis. A great performance of MoS 2 /C 8 min-15 %SA can be obtained under optimized reaction conditions with 100 % conversion of methyl palmitate, 75.0 mol% hydrodeoxygenation to n -C 15 -C 16 , and 20.5 mol % isomerization to i -C 15 -C 16 . The structure and activity of the catalyst can be retained at least for 4 cycles. Thin layers and high sulfurization, large amount of Brønsted acid sites, and suitable reaction conditions are key points to achieve a significant performance and avoid over cracking and deactivation. On basis of detected intermediates and kinetic data simulations, a complex reaction pathway was proposed and the specific k values for each elementary reaction were provided for the hydrodeoxygenation and isomerization of methyl palmitate.

Developing low-cost, highly efficient and stable bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting is vital but still a challenge. Hetero-atom doping is an effective strategy to improve the catalytic activity of electrocatalysts by increasing active sites and regulating electronic structure. Here, Mo-doped NiSe 2 nanosheets were in situ grown on nickel foam (NF) by hydrothermal and the subsequent selenization process as bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting. Incorporation of Mo into NiSe 2 can regulate the electronic structure, increase the numbers of high-valence Ni 3+ and active sites, generate the disorder defects due to the formation of active material NiOOH, and decrease the charge transfer resistance. The above synergistic roles make the Mo-doped NiSe 2 to present superior catalytic performances and remarkable stability for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Under alkaline condition, the overpotentials of OER and HER are 210 mV and 172 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm –2 , respectively. Moreover, only a low cell voltage of 1.57 V is required to reach a current density of 10 mA cm –2 in a water splitting device assembled with the Mo-doped NiSe 2 as the anode and cathode. Therefore, this study opens up a new way for designing non-precious bifunctional electrocatalysts by Mo doping.

New conceptions of developing various nanostructure materials supported on conductive substrates are urgently required for additive-free integrated electrodes for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). In this work, Mo-doped SnS2-based nanosheets were directly grown on a conductive substrate, carbon cloth, via a facile hydrothermal method. Significantly, the as-synthesized samples possess a three-dimensional network structure consisting of interconnected nanosheets, which can be directly employed as additive-free integrated electrodes for LIBs. The as-obtained CC@Sn0.9Mo0.1S2 nanosheets exhibit initial high discharge and charge capacities of 2033.6 and 1869.8 mA h g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1, with a coulombic efficiency of 91.9%. A high reversible discharge capacity of 1950.8 mA h g−1 is obtained after 200 cycles. Moreover, a high reversible capacity of 914.5 mA h g−1 is achieved even at a high current density of 5 A g−1, which significantly exceeds the theoretical capacity of commercial graphite and reversible capacity of SnS2. A full lithium ion battery was assembled composed of the CC@Sn0.9Mo0.1S2 anode and a commercial LiCoO2 cathode, which also delivered high capacity and cycling stability. The excellent electrochemical lithium storage performance of Mo-doped SnS2 could be attributed to the molybdenum doping, which limited the number of layers of the nanosheets, enlarged the interlayer spacing and generated rich defects.

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.

Lithium sulfide (Li 2 S) is considered as a promising alternative for the intercalation–type cathode materials because of its high theoretical specific capacity (1166 mAh g –1 ). However, the large–scale application of Li 2 S is limited by its intrinsic low electronic/ionic conductivity and severe shuttle effect of polysulfides. Herein, we report a facile and green method to the in–situ synthesis of Li 2 S–molybdenum (Mo) nanocomposites at room temperature by mechanochemical reaction of lithium hydride with molybdenum sulfide. The fig–like carbon coated Li 2 S–Mo (Li 2 S–Mo@C) nanocomposite with core–shell structure exhibits a low initial activation barrier of 2.51 V, high reversible capacity of 742 mAh g − 1 after 70 cycles at 0.2 A g − 1 and excellent cycling stability over 500 cycles at 1.0 A g − 1 . According to density functional theory calculation and experimental studies, the excellent electrochemical performance of fig–like Li 2 S–Mo@C nanocomposite can be attributed to the increased electronic/ionic conductivity, strong adsorption ability and catalytic conversion of lithium polysulfides, resulting from the synergistic effects of Mo nanodots and, carbon shell and their nanostructure. This work provides a new idea for developing large–scale applications of Li 2 S–based electrodes.

With the help of hydrogen bonding and π⋯π stacking, the small molecular clusters in the impregnating solution was induced to self-assemble and form a new Ni–Mo polyoxometalate based on octamolybdate with a molecular formula of [Ni(pyz) 6 ] [Mo 8 O 26 (pyz) 2 ]⋅10H 2 O (pyz = pyrazole). The polyoxometalate was structurally characterized detailed by various technologies, and its sulfide was also characterized to make a preliminary study to explore the use of it as a potential NiMoS active phase precursor. Much more NiMoS active phase and higher catalytic activity of the Ni–Mo sulfided catalyst was found, and the structure-directing effects can account for the phenomenon. The results show the Ni–Mo polyoxometalate [Ni(pyz) 6 ] [Mo 8 O 26 (pyz) 2 ]⋅10H 2 O can make a superior precursor to prepare the hydrodesulfurization catalyst, and it provides a new preparation methodology to the rational design and controllable preparation of superior hydrodesulfurization catalysts.

Cellulosic ethanol is one of the most important biofuels, yet its commercial production is hindered by the low-efficiency and high-cost bioconversion process. Here, we report a new chemocatalytic approach for the one-pot production of cellulosic ethanol. With a multifunctional Mo/Pt/WO x catalyst, cellulose is directly converted to ethanol in a one-pot reaction with a yield as high as 43.2 C%. Kinetic analysis reveals that such a one-pot process involves tandem catalysis from cellulose to ethylene glycol (rapid) followed by hydrogenolysis of ethylene glycol to ethanol (slow). Characterizations show that isolated and low-coordinated MoO x bonds to metallic Pt particles on the mesoporous WO x support, constituting x OMo–Pt–WO x interfacial sites, which offer high activity for C–O cleavage of ethylene glycol.

Photocatalytic overall water splitting (POWS) is a promising route for converting solar energy into green and sustainable energy. Herein, we report a facile hydrothermal approach to fabricate polyhedron BiVO 4 by Mo and Yco-doping (MYB) photocatalysts with suitable band gap for POWS. The MYB exhibited enhanced visible light-driven POWS activities in comparison with that of as-prepared BiVO 4 , Y-BiVO 4 and M-BiVO 4 , with the maximum H 2 and O 2 evolution rate of 34.7 and 17.4 μmol·h −1 ·g −1 , respectively. The optimum activity of the catalyst was controlled by adjusting Mo content of MYB. The photodeposition of Pt shows that there are special separation reduction and oxidation centers on the surface of MYB. Electrochemical experiments further confirmed the enhanced charge separation of MYB. MYB photocatalyst has small particle size, unique polyhedral structure, large specific surface area and high (103) and (200) surface exposure, thus improving POWS performance, high electron transfer efficiency and effective separation of photogenerated electron–hole pairs. Because of the doping of Mo and Y elements, the electronic structure of the catalyst is altered, enhancing light absorption and reducing the recombination of photogenerated electron–hole pair. The current study revealed that the MYB products could serve as cost-effective and stable photocatalysts for POWS. Graphical Abstract

Ni/NiO is regarded as an ideal candidate material to replace noble metal catalysts due to its good corrosion resistance and excellent hydrogen evolution activity. However, the poor stability of Ni/NiO catalyst in the process of long-term water electrolysis limits its large-scale application. In this study, a facile hydrothermal method was used to successfully synthesize highly active and stable nanoparticulate Mo–Ni/NiO catalysts. Density functional theory (DFT) shows that Mo doping can optimize the charge transfer of Ni/NiO, reduce the d-band center and accelerate the H* dissociation from the catalyst surface. COMSOL numerical simulation further confirmed that the granular structure can enhance the ion concentration and promote H 2 generation. Electrochemical tests showed that the overpotential of Mo–Ni/NiO was only 45 mV when the current density was 10 mA cm −2 in 1 M KOH solution, which was much lower than 158 mV of Ni/NiO. Furthermore, Mo–Ni/NiO exhibited superior stability when operated at a current density of 10 mA cm −2 for 150 h with a reduction of overpotential of only 2 mV. This work provides a simple method for improving the HER activity of catalysts with Mo doping, which provides a new idea for designing catalysts with high activity, excellent stability and low cost.
