Abstract
Perovskites have attracted tremendous attention as potential catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). It is well-known that the introduction of Fe into rare earth perovskites such as LaNiO3 enhances the intrinsic OER activity. Despite numerous studies on structure-property relationships, the origin of the activity and the nature of the active species are still elusive and unclear. In this work, we study a series of LaNixFe1-xO3 perovskites using in situ electrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy to decipher the surface evolution and formation of active species during OER. While the origin of the activity arises from NiOOH species formed from the active Ni centers in LaNiO3, our work shows that Fe serves as the active center in LaNi0.5Fe0.5O3 and forms Fe-O-Ni and FeOOH species during OER. The OER activity of LaFeO3 originates from FeOOH species, which interact with the soluble Ni species in the electrolyte forming an active electrode-electrolyte interface with high-valent stable surface iron species (Fe4+) and thereby improving the performance. Our work provides deeper insights into the synergistic effects of Ni and Fe on the catalytic activity, which in turn provides new design principles for perovskite catalysts for the OER.

CO 2 Methanation: Solvent-Free Synthesis of Nickel-Containing Catalysts from Complexes with Ethylenediamine. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2023; 16:2616. [PMID: 37048912 PMCID: PMC10095988 DOI: 10.3390/ma16072616] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/27/2023] [Revised: 03/17/2023] [Accepted: 03/23/2023] [Indexed: 06/19/2023]
Abstract
CO2 methanation was studied in the presence of nickel catalysts obtained by the solid-state combustion method. Complexes with a varying number of ethylenediamine molecules in the coordination sphere of nickel were chosen as the precursors of the active component of the catalysts. Their synthesis was carried out without the use of solvents, which made it possible to avoid the stages of their separation from the solution and the utilization of waste liquids. The composition and structure of the synthesized complexes were confirmed by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, powder XRD and XPS methods. It was determined that their thermal decomposition in the combustion wave proceeds in multiple stages with the formation of NiO and Ni(OH)2, which are reduced to Ni0. Higher ethylenediamine content in the complex leads to a higher content of metal in the solid products of combustion. However, different ratios of oxidized and reduced forms of nickel do not affect the initial activation temperature of nickel catalysts in the presence of CO2. It was noted that, after activation, the sample obtained from [Ni(C2H8N2)2](NO3)2 exhibited the highest activity in CO2 methanation. Thus, this complex is a promising precursor for CO2 methanation catalysts, and its synthesis requires only a small amount of ethylenediamine.

Abstract
Nanotechnology-based synthesis of nanoscale materials has appealed to the attention of scientists in the modern scientific community. In the bottom-up approach, atoms start to aggregate/agglomerate and form nuclei within the minimum and maximum supersaturation range. Once nuclei are generated above the critical-free energy/radius, the growth is initiated by obeying the LaMar model with a slight extra simple growth by diffusion advancement. The in situ real-time liquid phase analysis using STEM, AFM, and XAS techniques is used to control precursor decomposition to the nanocrystal formation process and should be a non-stoppable technique. Solution combustion synthesis (SCS) is a time-/energy-efficient self-sustained process that produces mass-/ion transport active porous materials. SCS also permits the synthesis of evenly distributed-doped and hybrid-nanomaterials, which are beneficial in tuning crucial properties of the materials. The growth and development of nanocrystals, dehydrating the sol in the presence of a surfactant or/and fuel results in combustion once it arrives at the ignition temperature. Besides, the kinetic and thermodynamics controlled architecture-directing agent-assisted SCS offers colloidal nanocrystal framework formation, which is currently highly applicable for energy devices. This short review provides insightful information that adds to the existing nanocrystal synthesis process and solution combustion synthesis and recommends future directions in the field. The LaMar model visualizes the process of nanocrystal formation. The solution combustion synthesis approach is a noble methodology resulting in highly stable and ordered porous nanomaterials.![]()

Abstract
In this work two approaches to the synthesis of energetic complex compound Ni(Im)6(NO3)2 from imidazole and nicklel (II) nitrate were applied: a traditional synthesis from solution and a solvent-free melting-assisted method. According to infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, elemental and thermal analysis data, it was shown that the solvent-free melt synthesis is a faster, simpler and environmentally friendly method of Ni(Im)6(NO3)2 preparation. The results show that this compound is a promising precursor for the production of nanocrystalline Ni-NiO materials by air-assisted combustion method. The combustion of this complex together with inorganic supports makes it possible to synthesize supported nickel catalysts for different catalytic processes.

Combustion-Synthesized Porous CuO-CeO2-SiO2 Composites as Solid Catalysts for the Alkenylation of C(sp3)-H Bonds Adjacent to a Heteroatom via Cross-Dehydrogenative Coupling. Catalysts 2021.

Abstract
A series of mixed oxides of CuO, CeO2, and SiO2 were prepared by gel combustion and employed for the first time as efficient solid catalysts in a solvent-less liquid-phase cross-dehydrogenative coupling. The facile one-pot catalyst synthesis resulted in highly porous materials presenting large specific surface areas and strong metal–support interactions. The interaction with highly dispersed CeO2 enhanced the redox properties of the CuO species. The CuO-CeO2-SiO2 composites exhibited excellent catalytic performance for the selective coupling between 1,1-diphenylethylene and tetrahydrofuran with a yield up to 85% of 2-(2,2-diphenylvinyl)-tetrahydrofuran in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide (DTPB) and KI. Albeit both CuO and CeO2 species are proved to be responsible for the catalytic conversion, a great synergistic improvement in the catalytic activity was obtained by extended contact between the oxide phases by high porosity in comparison with the reactions using individual Cu or Ce catalysts. The activity of the composite catalyst was shown to be highly stable after five successive reaction cycles. Furthermore, the study scope was extended to the synthesis of different derivatives via composite-catalyzed coupling of C(sp2)-H with C(sp3-H) adjacent to a heteroatom. The good yields recorded proved the general validity of this composite for the cross-dehydrogenative coupling reaction rarely performed on solid catalysts.

Abstract
The results of carbon dioxide reforming of CH4 (model biogas) on catalysts prepared by solution combustion synthesis (SCS) and impregnation of moisture capacity methods are presented. Investigation of the activity of catalysts synthesized from initial mixtures of Co(NO3)2-Al(NO3)3-urea of different compositions was carried out for the production of synthesis-gas, and SCS and traditional incipient wetness impregnation catalyst preparation methods were compared. The methane conversion reached 100%, and the conversion of CO2 increased to 86.2%, while the yield of H2 and CO was 99.2% and 85.4%, respectively, at 900 °C. It was found that CoAl2O4 spinel formation was due to substitution of Al3+ with Co2+ cations. Consequently, CoAl2O4 lattice parameters increased, since the ionic radius of Al3+ (0.51 Å) less than Cο2+ (0.72 Å). Advantages of SCS catalysts in comparison with catalysts prepared by the traditional incipient wetness impregnation method in dry reforming of methane were shown. The aim of this work is to develop a new catalyst for the conversion of model biogas into synthesis gas, which will contribute to the organization of a new environmentally friendly, energy-saving production in the future.

Abstract
Graphene and its analogs in combination with metal nanopowders are among the most promising catalysts for various industry valuable processes. The newly obtained solution combustion synthesized graphene–Cu and graphene–CuNi nanocomposites were examined in heterogeneous catalysis of thermal activated CO oxidation and photoactivated degradation of acid telon blue and direct blue dyes. The nanocomposites are characterized by a closely connected solution combustion synthesized graphene-metal structure with a number of graphene layers from 1 to 3 and fine metal grains sizes of 31 nm (Cu) and 14 nm (CuNi). The experimental data showed the obtained graphene-metal nanocomposites are among the most effective catalysts for CO oxidation with a temperature of 100% conversion of 150 °C and 200 °C for Cu and CuNi containing catalysts, respectively. At the same time, both nanopowders were found inactive for dyes degradation.

Abstract
With the development and prosperity of the global economy, the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) has become an increasing concern. Its greenhouse effect will cause serious environmental problems, such as the global warming and climate change. Therefore, the worldwide scientists have devoted great efforts to control CO2 emissions through various strategies, such as capture, resource utilization, sequestration, etc. Among these, the catalytic conversion of CO2 to methane is considered as one of the most efficient routes for resource utilization of CO2 owing to the mild reaction conditions and simple reaction device. Pioneer thermodynamic studies have revealed that low reaction temperature is beneficial to the high catalytic activity and CH4 selectivity. However, the low temperature will be adverse to the enhancement of the reaction rate due to kinetic barrier for the activation of CO2. Therefore, the invention of highly efficient catalysts with promising low temperature activities toward CO2 methanation reaction is the key solution. The Ni based catalysts have been widely investigated as the catalysts toward CO2 methanation due to their low cost and excellent catalytic performances. However, the Ni based catalysts usually perform poor low-temperature activities and stabilities. Therefore, the development of highly efficient Ni based catalysts with excellent low-temperature catalytic performances has become the research focus as well as challenge in this field. Therefore, we summarized the recent research progresses of constructing highly efficient Ni based catalysts toward CO2 methanation in this review. Specifically, the strategies on how to enhance the catalytic performances of the Ni based catalysts have been carefully reviewed, which include various influencing factors, such as catalytic supports, catalytic auxiliaries and dopants, the fabrication methods, reaction conditions, etc. Finally, the future development trend of the Ni based catalysts is also prospected, which will be helpful to the design and fabrication of the Ni catalysts with high efficiency toward CO2 methanation process.

Abstract
The morphology and surface characteristics of SCS(Solution Combustion Synthesis)-derived Ni–NiO nanocatalysts were studied. The ΤΕΜ results highlighted that the nanomaterial’s microstructure was modified by changing the reactants’ concentrations. The dendrites’ growth conditions were the main factors responsible for the observed changes in the nanomaterials’ crystallite size. Infrared camera measurements demonstrated a new type of combustion through dendrites. The XPS analysis revealed that the NiO structure resulted in the bridging of the oxygen structure that acted as an inhibitor of hydrogen adsorption on the catalytic surface and, consequently, the activity reduction. The RF-IGC indicated three different kinds of active sites with different energies of adsorption on the fresh catalyst and only one type on the aged catalyst. Aging of the nanomaterial was associated with changes in the microstructure of its surface by a gradual change in the chemical composition of the active centers.

Abstract
Solution combustion synthesis (SCS) is an efficient approach to deliver materials with desirable properties directly in the nanoscale. Nevertheless, it is a very sensitive method and there are many parameters that influence the final materials’ properties and microstructure. In this work, four parameters that severely affect the combustion mechanism of formation for the final products, and as a result their final properties, are studied. These are the concentration of nitrates, the concentration of fuel in direct and slow heating and the time in furnace after the SCS is completed. It has been concluded that all these parameters affect the SCS process in a complicated way and an attempt has been made to explain the underlying mechanisms and processes that shape the final nanostructures. Finally, some of the as-synthesized Ni/NiO nanopowders were employed as catalysts and their activity was tested in the liquid-phase hydrogenation of maleic acid.

Abstract
Nanostructured nickel-based catalysts were produced by solution combustion synthesis and it was found that their properties and structure depended on the pretreatment of the precursor solution. X-ray diffraction, N2 adsorption, and an infrared high-speed camera were used to follow the various synthesis steps and to characterize the obtained catalysts, while their catalytic activity was determined in the hydrogenation of maleic acid. It was determined that the amount of water used and the heating of the precursor solution under mild stirring up to 70 °C influenced the nickel nitrate–glycine–water complexes that were formed in the precursor solution in the form of dendrites. These play a key role in the solution combustion synthesis (SCS) reaction mechanism and in particular in the formation of nickel-based catalysts. Understanding the interrelationships between the processing parameters and the ensuing powder properties allowed an efficient optimization of the catalytic performance.
