Tuning the Composition of PdCuNi Hollow Nanospheres for Low Cost and Efficient Catalyst Towards Glycol Electrooxidation

Multi-shelled hollow layered double hydroxides with enhanced performance for the oxygen evolution reaction

Hollow materials with a sophisticated structure are promising for various applications with boosted performances and innovative properties. Herein, we report an in situ transformation strategy using multi-layered MOFs as templates to fabricate multi-shelled hollow NiZnCoFe layered double hydroxides (LDHs), which outperformed the double- and single-shelled hollow LDHs and commercial IrO₂ in the oxygen evolution reaction.

Solvothermal-assisted preparation of PdRhTe nanowires as an efficient electrocatalyst for ethylene glycol oxidation

A new strategy for the fabrication of composition-tunable PdRhTe nanowires with high performance toward ethylene glycol electrooxidation has been demonstrated.

Interfacial engineering of Ru-S-Sb/antimonene electrocatalysts for highly efficient electrolytic hydrogen generation in neutral electrolyte

The development of high-kinetic catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in a neutral electrolyte is of great importance but unfortunately remains a challenge so far. Herein, we report hybrids with abundant Ru-S-Sb bonds and engineered ultrathin antimonene (Ru-S-Sb/antimonene) as highly kinetic, active, stable electrocatalysts for the HER in an aqueous neutral electrolyte. Experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that Ru-S-Sb bonds coupling with antimonene synergistically work to promote HER activity. The present study brings us one step closer to understand the structure-composition-property relationships and practical electrolytic H2 production.
