Co-Cu nanoparticles uniformly embedded in the intra-crystalline mesoporous Silicalite-1 for catalytic ammonia borane hydrolysis. iScience 2024; 27:109745. [PMID: 38706839 PMCID: PMC11067381 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2024.109745] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Revised: 02/27/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Zeolite-encaged metal nanoparticles (NPs) catalysts are emerging as a new frontier owing to their superior ability to stabilize the structure and catalytic performance in the thermal and environmental catalytic reaction. However, the pore size below 2 nm of the conventional zeolites usually limits the accessibility of metal active sites. Herein, Co-Cu NPs of about 2.5-3.5 nm were uniformly encapsulated in the intracrystalline mesoporous Silicalite-1 (S-1) through alkali-treatment ligand-assisted strategy. The obtained sample (termed CoxCu1-x@HS-1) exhibited efficient activity and stability in the ammonia borane hydrolysis with the highest TOF value of 21.46 molH2·molMe-1·min-1. UV-vis DRS spectra indicated that intracrystalline mesopores have greatly improved the openness and accessibility of the active sites, thus improving their catalytic performance. The introduction of Cu regulates the electronic properties of Co, further increasing hydrogen production activity. This research creates new prospects to design other high-performance hierarchical porous zeolite-confined metal/metal oxide catalysts.

Co and Co 3O 4 in the Hydrolysis of Boron-Containing Hydrides: H 2O Activation on the Metal and Oxide Active Centers. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 17:1794.

Abstract
This work focuses on the comparison of H2 evolution in the hydrolysis of boron-containing hydrides (NaBH4, NH3BH3, and (CH2NH2BH3)2) over the Co metal catalyst and the Co3O4-based catalysts. The Co3O4 catalysts were activated in the reaction medium, and a small amount of CuO was added to activate Co3O4 under the action of weaker reducers (NH3BH3, (CH2NH2BH3)2). The high activity of Co3O4 has been previously associated with its reduced states (nanosized CoBn). The performed DFT modeling shows that activating water on the metal-like surface requires overcoming a higher energy barrier compared to hydride activation. The novelty of this study lies in its focus on understanding the impact of the remaining cobalt oxide phase. The XRD, TPR H2, TEM, Raman, and ATR FTIR confirm the formation of oxygen vacancies in the Co3O4 structure in the reaction medium, which increases the amount of adsorbed water. The kinetic isotopic effect measurements in D2O, as well as DFT modeling, reveal differences in water activation between Co and Co3O4-based catalysts. It can be assumed that the oxide phase serves not only as a precursor and support for the reduced nanosized cobalt active component but also as a key catalyst component that improves water activation.

Abstract
Films of titania-supported monometallic Pd, Pt, and bimetallic Pt-Pd catalysts made of metallic nanoparticles were prepared by magnetron sputtering and studied in the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of cyclohexene. Pd/TiOx and Pt-Pd/TiOx were found active at as low temperature as 150 °C and showed high catalytic activity with high conversion (up to 81%) and benzene selectivity exceeding 97% above 200 °C. In turn, the Pt/TiOx catalyst performed poorly with the onset of benzene production at 200 °C only and conversions not exceeding 5%. The activity of bimetallic Pt-Pd catalysts far exceeded all of the other investigated catalysts at temperatures below 250 °C. However, the production of benzene significantly dropped with a further temperature increase due to the enhanced combustion of CO2 at the expense of benzene formation. As in situ NAP-XPS measurement of the Pt-Pd/TiOx catalyst in the reaction conditions of the ODH of cyclohexene revealed Pd surface enrichment during the first temperature ramp, we assume that Pd surface enrichment is responsible for enhanced activity at low temperatures in the bimetallic catalyst. At the same time, the Pt constituent contributes to stronger cyclohexene adsorption and oxygen activation at elevated temperatures, leading to changes in conversion and selectivity with a drop in benzene formation and increased combustion to CO2. Both the monometallic Pd and the Pt-Pd-based catalysts produced a small amount of the second valuable product, cyclohexadiene, and below 250 °C produced only a negligible amount of CO2 (<0.2%). To summarize, Pd- and Pt-Pd-based catalysts were found to be promising candidates for highly selective low-temperature dehydrogenation of cyclic hydrocarbons that showcased reproducibility and stability after the temperature activation. Importantly, these catalysts were fabricated by utilizing proven methods suitable for large-scale production on extended surfaces.

Abstract
Ammonia borane (AB), a liquid hydrogen storage material, has attracted increasing attention for hydrogen utilization because of its high hydrogen content. However, the slow kinetics of AB hydrolysis and the indefinite catalytic mechanism remain significant problems for its large-scale practical application. Thus, the development of efficient AB hydrolysis catalysts and the determination of their catalytic mechanisms are significant and urgent. A summary of the preparation process and structural characteristics of various supported catalysts is presented in this paper, including graphite, metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal oxides, carbon nitride (CN), molybdenum carbide (MoC), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), boron nitride (h-BN), zeolites, carbon dots (CDs), and metal carbide and nitride (MXene). In addition, the relationship between the electronic structure and catalytic performance is discussed to ascertain the actual active sites in the catalytic process. The mechanism of AB hydrolysis catalysis is systematically discussed, and possible catalytic paths are summarized to provide theoretical considerations for the designing of efficient AB hydrolysis catalysts. Furthermore, three methods for stimulating AB from dehydrogenation by-products and the design of possible hydrogen product-regeneration systems are summarized. Finally, the remaining challenges and future research directions for the effective development of AB catalysts are discussed.

Abstract
The design and development of green and efficient supported catalysts is the frontier direction in the field of green synthesis, which conforms to the strategic concept of green sustainable chemistry and "carbon neutrality". Herein, we used a renewable resource chitosan (CS) derived from seafood wastes of chitin as carriers to design two different chitosan-supported palladium (Pd) nano-catalysts through different activation methods. The Pd particles were firmly and uniformly dispersed on the chitosan microspheres due to the interconnected nanoporous structure and functional groups of chitosan, proved by diverse characterizations. The chitosan supported catalysts (Pd@CS) was applied to hydrogenation of 4-nitrophenol, which showed competitive catalytic activity compared to commercial Pd/C, un-supported nano-Pd and Pd(OAc)2 catalysts, as well as excellent catalytic activity, good reusability, long-life and broad applicability in selective hydrogenation of aromatic aldehydes, suggesting potential of applications in green industrial catalysis.

Abstract
Ammonia borane (AB) is a potential hydrogen storage material with high-efficiency hydrolytic dehydrogenation under a suitable catalyst. Noble metal catalysts have drawn a lot of attention. In this study, a carbon-coated zeolite was obtained by calcination at high temperatures using glucose as a carbon source. Pt nanoparticles were fixed on a core-shell composite support by a simple chemical reduction method. A series of catalysts were prepared with different synthesis parameters. The results show that PSC-2 has excellent catalytic performance for hydrolytic dehydrogenation of AB in alkaline solution at room temperature, and the turnover frequency (TOF) is 593 min-1. The excellent catalytic performance is attributed to the carbon layer on the zeolite surface which inhibits the aggregation or deformation of metals in the catalytic reaction. The metal-support interaction activates the water and accelerates the rate-limiting step of hydrolysis. The activation energy (E a = 44 kJ mol-1) was calculated based on the reaction temperature. In addition, the kinetics of AB hydrolysis was studied, and the effects of catalyst concentration, AB concentration and NaOH concentration on AB hydrolysis rate were further investigated. The high-efficiency catalyst prepared in this work provides a new strategy for the development of chemical hydrogen production in the field of catalysis.

Abstract
The rational design of the interface structure between nitride and oxide using the same metallic element and correlating the interfacial active center with a determined catalytic mechanism remain challenging. Herein, a Co4 N-Co3 O4 interface structure is designed to determine the effect of interfacial active centers on hydrogen generation from ammonia borane. An unparalleled catalytic activity toward H2 production with a turnover frequency up to 79 min-1 is achieved on Co4 N-Co3 O4 @C catalyst for ten recycles. Experimental analyses and theoretical simulation suggest that the atomic interface-exciting effect (AieE) is responsible for the high catalytic activity. The Co4 N-Co3 O4 interface facilitates the targeted adsorption and activation of NH3 BH3 and H2 O molecules to generate H* and H2 . The two active centers of Co(N)* and Co(O)* at the Co4 N-Co3 O4 interface activate NH3 BH3 and H2 O, respectively. This proof-of-concept research on AieE provides important insights regarding the design of heterogeneous catalysts and promotes the development of the nature and regulation of energy chemical conversion.

Abstract
Inexpensive and efficient catalysts are crucial to industrial adoption of the electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) to produce hydrogen. Although two-dimensional (2D) MoS2 materials have large specific surface areas, the catalytic efficiency is normally low. In this work, Ag and other dopants are plasma-implanted into MoS2 to tailor the surface and interface to enhance the HER activity. The HER activty increases initially and then decreases with increasing dopant concentrations and implantation of Ag is observed to produce better results than Ti, Zr, Cr, N, and C. At a current density of 400 mA cm-2 , the overpotential of Ag500-MoS2 @Ni3 S2 /NF is 150 mV and the Tafel slope is 41.7 mV dec-1 . First-principles calculation and experimental results reveal that Ag has higher hydrogen adsorption activity than the other dopants and the recovered S sites on the basal plane caused by plasma doping facilitate water splitting. In the two-electrode overall water splitting system with Ag500-MoS2 @Ni3 S2 /NF, a small cell voltage of 1.47 V yields 10 mA cm-2 and very little degradation is observed after operation for 70 hours. The results reveal a flexible and controllable strategy to optimize the surface and interface of MoS2 boding well for hydrogen production by commercial water splitting.

Abstract
Catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB) provides an effective way to generate pure H2 at ambient temperature for fuel cells. Pt-based catalysts usually exhibit great initial activity toward this reaction but deactivate quickly. Here, we report that the metal-support interactions in Pt/Co3O4 nanocages can simultaneously accelerate the H2 generation and enhance the catalyst's stability. The Pt/Co3O4 catalyst is made for the first time by embedding Pt clusters (∼1.2 nm) in a high-surface-area Co3O4 nanocage to maximize the metal-support interface. The turnover frequency of the Pt/Co3O4 catalyst is about nine times higher than that of commercial Pt/C and outperforms almost all other Pt-based catalysts. X-ray absorption spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, in situ spectroscopy, and density functional theory calculations suggest that the Co3O4 nanocages with rich oxygen vacancies facilitate the adsorption and dissociation of H2O to give electropositive H (Hδ+), while the in situ embedded Pt clusters can accelerate the formation of electronegative H (Hδ-) from AB. Subsequently, the Hδ+ and Hδ- spill over to the abundant interfacial sites and bond into H2. In addition to this dual-function synergy effect, the strong metal-support electronic interactions between Co3O4 and Pt benefit the desorption of poisonous B-containing byproducts from Pt sites. This effect together with cluster anchoring leads to a fivefold enhancement in durability compared to commercial Pt/C. The metal-support interactions revealed in this study provide more options for catalyst design toward facile H2 production from chemical hydrogen storage materials.
