The use of green biogas as a raw material for producing methanol-friendly syngas (H 2 /CO ≈ 2) for one-step methanol synthesis has gained significant attention. However, developing efficient catalysts with high activity and stability remains challenging, as they often face issues with stability and carbon deposition. This study presents a Ni/CeO 2 /HT catalyst designed for high activity and long-term stability by leveraging the Ce redox cycle and strong interactions between Ni-CeO 2 and hydrotalcite (HT). The catalyst benefits from abundant oxygen vacancies generated by the Ce 3+ - Ce 4+ pathway, enhancing its ability to activate CO 2 and H 2 O and providing excellent coke resistance. Comprehensive analyses of CO 2 /H 2 O adsorption and carbon elimination mechanisms were conducted using techniques such as in situ H 2 -TPR, CO 2 /H 2 O-TPSR, in situ CH 4 -TPSR, CO 2 /H 2 O-TPO, and FTIR. The Ni/CeO 2 /HT catalyst outperformed others in CO 2 /H 2 O adsorption and CH 4 activation capacity, promoting the generation of active oxygen species and effectively removing coke precursors, thereby improving resistance to Ni sintering and carbon deposition. At 750 °C and a weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) of 32,400 mLg Cat −1 h −1 , it achieved CH 4 and CO 2 conversions of 93 % and 66 %, respectively, with long-term stability exceeding 200 h.

Strong magnetic anisotropy in low-dimensional magnets leads to a significant rotating magnetocaloric effect, presenting new opportunities for the exploration of more efficient and streamlined refrigeration systems. In this study, we have successfully synthesized a series of centimeter-scale rare-earth-containing fluorocarbonates, K 4 RE 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 ( RE = Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, and Dy) through a supercritical hydrothermal method, featuring unique RE 2 O 12 F 4 magnetic dimers. The above materials' fundamental magnetism has been systematically investigated, and no long-range magnetic transitions were captured above 1.8 K. Based on the low-temperature specific heat results, the long-range magnetic ordering was found around 0.84 K and 0.97 K for K 4 Tb 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 and K 4 Dy 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 , respectively. Furthermore, the anisotropic magnetism of K 4 Tb 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 and K 4 Dy 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 reveals significant magneto-crystalline anisotropy, with the magnetic field ( B ) aligned along the RE 2 O 12 F 4 magnetic dimer, which acts as the easy magnetic axis. The maximum rotating field entropy change, − Δ S R max for K 4 Tb 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 reaches approximately 9 J kg -1 K -1 around 17 K, while for K 4 Dy 2 (CO 3 ) 3 F 4 , it is approximately 5.5 J kg -1 K -1 near 11 K, both under a 7 T field applied along the c -axis. These findings highlight the potential of these compounds for magnetic refrigeration applications through a rotating crystallographic direction.

CO 2 methanation is a potential way for the re-utilization of CO 2 . MOF derivations are promising candidates for commonly used Ni-based catalysts due to their high porosity and confinement effect. Herein, we systematically investigated the synthetic pathway of Zr-MOF-derived Ni-based catalysts. It is found that Ce addition can effectively improve the thermostability, specific surface area and Ni dispersion of the derived Ni/CeO 2 -ZrO 2 catalyst. It can also enhance the adsorption of CO 2 by the generation of O v and improve CO 2 methanation activity. Calcination the MOF in inert gas leads to the formation of CNTs and amorphous carbon. Amorphous carbon results in less interaction between NiO and CeO 2 as well as low amount of O v , leading to lower catalytic activity than the catalyst calcinated in air. Compared with impregnation method, one-pot solvothermal method leads to much higher specific surface area for both MOF and derived oxides. It also benefits the uniform dispersion of NiO and higher amount of O v . Therefore, it shows better catalytic activity and is proved to be a better method for Ni introduction. In the catalysts we discussed, St-ZrCeNi (Ce addition, one-pot solvothermal method, calcination in air) shows the highest CO 2 conversion and good CH 4 selectivity due to its high specific area and more O v . It also shows good stability (>50 h) and good intrinsic activity. This research reveals the roles of several important factors in the synthesis process of Zr-MOF derived Ni-based catalysts. It also gives new insights for the design and synthesis for other MOF derived catalysts.

A bifunctional catalyst with Ce-based metal–organic frameworks deposited on carbon encapsulated Fe 3 O 4 particles (Ce-MOFs/Fe 3 O 4 @C) was prepared for heterogeneous electro-Fenton (EF), which exhibited high H 2 O 2 generation efficiency (over 90% selectivity and 80.7% current efficiency), high sulfamethazine (SMT) removal with very low electric energy consumption (7.65 kWh kg −1 SMT), and wider pH suitability to alkaline environment (pH 9). The highest content of oxygen vacancies (O V ), Ce 3+ and Fe 2+ was simultaneously exhibited when the Fe/Ce ratio in precursor was 2:1. Interface-confined between Ce-MOFs and Fe 3 O 4 @C and presence of O V promoted the O 2 adsorption for oxygen reduction reaction and O 2 ∙- generation, and electron transfer between Fe and Ce. Meanwhile, the presence of Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ and Ce 3+ /Ce 4+ simultaneously facilitated the sequential catalysis induced by H 2 O 2 to generate ∙ OH, and Ce 4+ could promote O 2 ∙- to generate 1 O 2 . This work provides new insight into the design and synthesis of Fe-based catalysts in EF with interface confinement and multi-layered reaction centers to improve the generation and the decomposition of H 2 O 2 at the same time at a low cathode potential.

The 12 new rare-earth tellurides Ba2MLnTe5 (M = Ga and Ln = Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, Y; M = In and Ln = Ce, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Er, Y) have been synthesized by solid-state reactions. The two compounds Ba2GaLnTe5 (Ln = Sm, Gd) are isostructural and crystallize in the centrosymmetric space group P1̅, while the other 10 compounds belong to another structure type in the noncentrosymmetric space group Cmc21. In both structure types, there are one-dimensional anionic 1∞[MLnTe5]4– chains built from LnTe6 octahedra and MTe4 (M = Ga, In) tetrahedra, but the connectivity between the LnTe6 octahedra and MTe4 tetrahedra is different for the two structure types. On the basis of the diffuse-reflectance spectra, the band gaps are around 1.1–1.3 eV for these compounds. The Ba2MLnTe5 (M = Ga and Ln = Gd, Dy; M = In and Ln = Gd, Dy, Er) compounds are paramagnetic and obey the Curie–Weiss law, while the magnetic susceptibility of Ba2InSmTe5 deviates from the Curie–Weiss law. In addition, electronic structure calculation on Ba2MYTe5 (M = Ga, In) indicates that they are both direct-gap semiconductors with large nonlinear-optical coefficients.

With the development of high power and high thrust-weight ratio aeronautics and astronautics, aircraft engines and gas turbine technology, the development of thermal barrier coating (TBCs) material is an enormous challenge, which requires both high temperature stability and resistance to molten calcium-magnesium-aluminosilicate (CMAS) corrosion. In this study, five high-entropy rare-earth tantalate (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 (Re=Y, Gd, Dy, Ce, Sm, La, Yb) ceramics were prepared by high temperature solid state reaction. The phase composition, microstructure, thermophysical and mechanical properties and CMAS corrosion resistance of the obtained high-entropy (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics were systematically investigated. The as-prepared five high-entropy rare-earth tantalate (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics had monoclinic structure and uniform composition. The five (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics all had lower Young’s modulus (135.06∼158.63 GPa), Vickers hardness (3.7∼6.2 GPa), fracture toughness (2.30-2.80 MPa·m 1/2 ) and brittleness index (1.45-2.53 μm –1/2 ) than that of YSZ. The thermal expansion rate and thermal expansion coefficients of the five (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics were close to each other but showed higher value than that of single RETaO 4 (RE= Gd, Dy, Sm or Y) and lower value than that of YSZ. The thermal diffusivities and thermal conductivity of the five (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics were lower than that of YSZ, YTaO 4 and GdTaO 4 at all temperature. During molten CMAS corrosion, CMAS melt diffused into the (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics and then corroded (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 grains, thereby forming a corrosion area composed of reaction layer and penetration layer. The CaO in penetrated CMAS melt could react with Ta element in (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics to generate Ca 2 Ta 2 O 7 in the reaction layer and reduce the content of CaO in the penetrated CMAS melt, which increased the viscosity of the CMAS melt and inhibited the further penetration of CMAS into the ceramics. Based on the obtained results, the CMAS corrosion of (5RE 0.2 )TaO 4 ceramics was primarily controlled by the Ca 2 Ta 2 O 7 formation and the CMAS penetration.

Simultaneous elimination of CO and NO x remains a formidable challenge, largely due to the competitive oxidation reactions present in industrial emission streams. Although much prior research has concentrated on enhancing performance at low temperatures, limited catalytic activity in O 2 -containing environments has recently gained attention as a pressing issue. Herein, we developed an Ir/Si 2 Ce 1 O x catalyst via a SiO 2 -induced structural regulation strategy, which promotes the fine dispersion of CeO 2 and enables the strong anchoring of Ir species. This rational design facilitates the preferential exposure of the active Ir 0 (111) crystal plane, a key factor associated with optimized surface adsorption behavior. Furthermore, the abundant Ir-O-Ce interfaces in this unique architecture induce significant electron transfer from Ce to Ir, thereby stabilizing the metallic Ir 0 . Concurrently, the activated lattice oxygen at the Ir-O-Ce interfaces facilitates the formation of the key nitrate intermediates. Consequently, the catalyst demonstrates outstanding NO reduction and CO oxidation efficiency at 250 °C under oxygen-containing conditions. Our findings highlight a viable approach for stabilizing Ir 0 through tailored Ir Ce interactions, offering a pathway to robust CO-selective catalytic reduction (CO-SCR) performance in an oxidative environment.

KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Ln 3+ (Ln = Ce, Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Dy/Eu, Yb/Ho, Yb/Er, Yb/Tm) phosphors were synthesized by high temperature solid state method. Doping the KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 matrix with 5%Dy 3+ ions resulted in white light emission under 345 nm excitation. The calculated color temperature (CCT) of this white light is 5523 K, indicating as positive white light. It was found that the luminous intensity of the obtained KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :5%Dy 3+ at 200 °C was 76.80 % of that at room temperature, showing good thermal stability as well as possibility of application in white LED. Under the excitation at 392 nm, the fluorescence quantum yield of KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :10%Eu 3+ is 79.92 %. Energy transfer between Dy 3+ and Eu 3+ is observed in KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Dy 3+ /Eu 3+ samples, with identified mechanism as the quadrupole-quadrupole interaction. Tunable luminescence ranging from white to yellow then to orange-red is achieved by adjusting the doping concentration of Eu 3+ in KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :5%Dy 3+ , x%Eu 3+ . Under the excitation of 980 nm near-infrared light, the prepared KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Ho 3+ , KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Er 3+ and KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 :Yb 3+ /Tm 3+ samples showed up-conversion emissions of red, yellow and blue, respectively, with two-photon processes. In KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 matrix, multi-color and multi-security marks were successfully prepared by utilizing up/down conversion luminescence characteristics, which obtained good anti-counterfeiting effect and improved anti-counterfeiting security. Therefore, the obtained KSrGd(PO 4 ) 2 : Ln 3+ phosphors exhibit promising application prospects in the fields of WLED and multiple anti-counterfeiting.

The comparison results show that the generalized Young’s rule and the semi-ideal solution theory can yield good predictions for the conductivities of the ternary electrolyte solutions, implying that the conductivities of aqueous solutions of (1:3 + 1:3) electrolyte mixtures can be well predicted from those of their constituent binary solutions by the simple equations.

A MOF-derived carbon/metal oxide composite (Fe/Ce@NPC-600) by doping Ce into NH 2 -MOF-101(Fe) precursor and simple one-step carbonization was fabricated. Fe/Ce@NPC-600 as a floating cathode was innovatively applied to the solar photoelectro-Fenton (SPEF) process to increase the yield of H 2 O 2 and activate it for degradation tetracycline (TC). The characterizations showed that the presence of Ce greatly increased the content of Fe 2+ and photoresponse ability in the material. Thanks to the synergistic effect of Fe and Ce, Fe/Ce@NPC-600 cathode could efficiently degrade TC by 98.2 % within 30 min, and the removal rate of total organic carbon (TOC) was 68.2 %, and the photoelectric synergistic enhancement factor ( f PEF ) was 1.4. Besides, based on machine learning, a XGB model was established to predict electrode performance. The degradation mechanism and pathway of TC were also proposed. Our results inspired the application of floating cathodes, MOF-derived materials and artificial intelligence for advanced oxidation processes for efficient removal of emerging contaminants.
