Abstract
We synthesized nickel (Ni) nanoparticles (NPs) in a high specific surface area (SSA) p-block element-containing inorganic compound prepared via the polymer-derived ceramics (PDC) route to dispatch the obtained nanocomposite towards oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The in situ formation of Ni NPs in an amorphous silicon carboxynitride (Si-C-O-N(H)) matrix is allowed by the reactive blending of a polysilazane, NiCl2 and DMF followed by the subsequent thermolysis of the Ni : organosilicon polymer coordination complex at a temperature as low as 500 °C in flowing argon. The final nanocomposite displays a BET SSA as high as 311 m2 g-1 while the structure of the NPs corresponds to face-centred cubic (fcc) Ni along with interstitial-atom free (IAF) hexagonal close-packed (hcp) Ni as revealed by XRD. A closer look into the compound through FEG-SEM microscopy confirms the formation of pure metallic Ni, while HR-TEM imaging reveals the occurrence of Ni particles featuring a fcc phase and surrounded by carbon layers; thus, forming core-shell structures, along with Ni NPs in an IAF hcp phase. By considering that this newly synthesized material contains only Ni without doping (e.g., Fe) with a low mass loading (0.15 mg cm-2), it shows promising OER performances with an overpotential as low as 360 mV at 10 mA cm-2 according to the high SSA matrix, the presence of the IAF hcp Ni NPs and the development of core-shell structures. Given the simplicity, the flexibility, and the low cost of the proposed synthesis approach, this work opens the doors towards a new family of very active and stable high SSA nanocomposites made by the PDC route containing well dispersed and accessible non-noble transition metals for electrocatalysis applications.

Mechanistic Investigation of the Formation of Nickel Nanocrystallites Embedded in Amorphous Silicon Nitride Nanocomposites. NANOMATERIALS 2022; 12:nano12101644.

Abstract
Herein, we report the mechanistic investigation of the formation of nickel (Ni) nanocrystallites during the formation of amorphous silicon nitride at a temperature as low as 400 °C, using perhydropolysilazane (PHPS) as a preformed precursor and further coordinated by nickel chloride (NiCl2); thus, forming the non-noble transition metal (TM) as a potential catalyst and the support in an one-step process. It was demonstrated that NiCl2 catalyzed dehydrocoupling reactions between Si-H and N-H bonds in PHPS to afford ternary silylamino groups, which resulted in the formation of a nanocomposite precursor via complex formation: Ni(II) cation of NiCl2 coordinated the ternary silylamino ligands formed in situ. By monitoring intrinsic chemical reactions during the precursor pyrolysis under inert gas atmosphere, it was revealed that the Ni-N bond formed by a nucleophilic attack of the N atom on the Ni(II) cation center, followed by Ni nucleation below 300 °C, which was promoted by the decomposition of Ni nitride species. The latter was facilitated under the hydrogen-containing atmosphere generated by the NiCl2-catalyzed dehydrocoupling reaction. The increase of the temperature to 400 °C led to the formation of a covalently-bonded amorphous Si3N4 matrix surrounding Ni nanocrystallites.

Abstract
This work highlights the first demonstration of a low-temperature in situ formation of Co nanocrystallites embedded within an amorphous silicon nitride matrix through careful control of the chemistry behind material design using perhydropolysilazane (PHPS) as a Si3N4 precursor further coordinated with CoCl2 and ammonia as a pyrolysis atmosphere. The Co nucleation was allowed to proceed at temperatures as low as 400 °C via thermal decomposition of Co2N pre-formed in situ by the reaction of CoCl2 with the Si centers of PHPS at the early stage of pyrolysis (220-350 °C).

Abstract
The porous perovskite-type La0.6Sr0.4CoO3-δ nanotubes are synthesized by sol-gel method combined with electrospinning technique following the calcination, while the porous nanotubular structure can increase the utilization of active sites related to the catalytic activity in soot oxidation. In order to further improve the catalytic activity, porous La0.6Sr0.4CoO3-δ nanotubes are further treated with nitric acid to obtain a larger specific surface area in this work. The as-prepared catalysts are characterized by different techniques to study their physical and chemical properties. The soot catalytic activity is evaluated by the temperature programmed oxidation tests and the values of activation energy. Based on the characterizations and catalytic activity evaluation, the correlation between the specific surface area and catalytic activity is well revealed by the isothermal kinetic measurements. The higher specific surface area (more than 150.0 m2 g-1) contributes to a larger amount and a better dispersion of the active oxygen species, thence improving the catalytic activity of soot oxidation. As a result, porous perovskite-type La0.6Sr0.4CoO3-δ nanotubes after nitric acid treatment for 4 h have the best activity and a good stability, with the T50 of 442 °C (5% O2) and 415 °C (5% O2 + 500 ppm NO), and the Ea of 93.6 kJ mol mol-1.

Abstract
Large-scale energy storage and the utilization of biomass as a sustainable carbon source are global challenges of this century. The reversible storage of hydrogen covalently bound in chemical compounds is a particularly promising energy storage technology. For this, compounds that can be sustainably synthesized and that permit high-weight% hydrogen storage would be highly desirable. Herein, we report that catalytically modified lignin, an indigestible, abundantly available and hitherto barely used biomass, can be harnessed to reversibly store hydrogen. A novel reusable bimetallic catalyst has been developed, which is able to hydrogenate and dehydrogenate N-heterocycles most efficiently. Furthermore, a particular N-heterocycle has been identified that can be synthesized catalytically in one step from the main lignin hydrogenolysis product and ammonia, and in which the new bimetallic catalyst allows multiple cycles of high-weight% hydrogen storage. Energy storage and biomass utilization are two major challenges for sustainability. Here the authors use a major lignin hydrogenolysis product for the synthesis of an N-heterocycle and develop a bimetallic catalyst for repeated hydrogenation/dehydrogenation of this and other molecules for hydrogen storage.

Abstract
The absorption ability and photocatalytic activity of photocatalytic materials play important roles in improving the pollutants removal effects. Herein, we reported a new kind of photocatalytic material, which was synthesized by simultaneously designing hierarchical porous magnesian (PM) substrate and TiO2 catalyst modification. Particularly, PM substrate could be facilely prepared by controlling its crystal phase (Phase 5, Mg3Cl(OH)5 · 4H2O), while Ag/AgCl particles modification of TiO2 could be achieved by in situ ion exchange between Ag(+) and above crystal Phase. Physiochemical analysis shows that Ag/AgCl/TiO2/PM material has higher visible and ultraviolet light absorption response, and excellent gas absorption performance compared to other controls. These suggested that Ag/AgCl/TiO2/PM material could produce more efficient photocatalytic effects. Its photocatalytic reaction rate was 5.21 and 30.57 times higher than that of TiO2/PM and TiO2/imporous magnesian substrate, respectively. Thus, this material and its intergration synthesis method could provide a novel strategy for high-efficiency application and modification of TiO2 photocatalyst in engineering filed.

Abstract
The present Review addresses current developments related to polymer-derived ceramic nanocomposites (PDC-NCs). Different classes of preceramic polymers are briefly introduced and their conversion into ceramic materials with adjustable phase compositions and microstructures is presented. Emphasis is set on discussing the intimate relationship between the chemistry and structural architecture of the precursor and the structural features and properties of the resulting ceramic nanocomposites. Various structural and functional properties of silicon-containing ceramic nanocomposites as well as different preparative strategies to achieve nano-scaled PDC-NC-based ordered structures are highlighted, based on selected ceramic nanocomposite systems. Furthermore, prospective applications of the PDC-NCs such as high-temperature stable materials for thermal protection systems, membranes for hot gas separation purposes, materials for heterogeneous catalysis, nano-confinement materials for hydrogen storage applications as well as anode materials for secondary ion batteries are introduced and discussed in detail.

Abstract
A simple one-pot synthesis of well-defined PS-silazane nano-composites (polystyrene, PS) is described. In contrast to the, thus far, used two-step procedure ((1) assembly of a PS template bed and (2) careful filling of the voids between the PS spheres), which is restricted to macro structuring, we are able to simply mix the PS template and a commercially available silazane precursor HTT-1800 in toluene. The key is the alteration of the zeta potential of the PS template leading to a homogeneous dispersion in the silazane-toluene mixture. Removal of solvent gives rise to a highly ordered PS-silazane nano-composites and subsequent pyrolysis leads to mesoporous silicon carbonitride (SiCN) materials. The one-pot procedure has two advantages: easy upscaling and the use of PS spheres smaller than 100 nm in diameter, here 60 nm. The PS template was characterized by photon correlation spectroscopy, zeta potential measurements, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). The resulting mesoporous SiCN materials were analyzed by SEM, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nitrogen sorption analysis, and Fourier transform infrared measurements (FT-IR).

Abstract
Nanoporous and nanostructured materials are becoming increasingly important for advanced applications involving, for example, bioactive materials, catalytic materials, energy storage and conversion materials, photonic crystals, membranes, and more. As such, they are exposed to a variety of harsh environments and often experience detrimental morphological changes as a result. This article highlights material limitations and recent advances in porous materials--three-dimensionally ordered macroporous (3DOM) materials in particular--under reactive or high-temperature conditions. Examples include systems where morphological changes are desired and systems that require an increased retention of structure, surface area, and overall material integrity during synthesis and processing. Structural modifications, changes in composition, and alternate synthesis routes are explored and discussed. Improvements in thermal or structural stability have been achieved by the isolation of nanoparticles in porous structures through spatial separation, by confinement in a more thermally stable host, by the application of a protective surface or an adhesive interlayer, by alloy or solid solution formation, and by doping to induce solute drag.

Abstract
Nanocomposites have great potential for the rational synthesis of tailored materials. However, the templating process that transfers the self-organized nanostructure of a block copolymer or other mesophase onto the functional material is by no means trivial, and often involves multiple steps, each of which presents its own chemical and physical challenges. As a result the nanocomposite may not be homogeneous, but can be phase-separated into various components which may feature their own specific microstructure. Here it is shown how scanning microbeam small-angle X-ray scattering (µSAXS) can be used to characterize a thermoset resol/poly(isoprene-block-ethylene oxide) nanocomposite on multiple length scales with respect to homogeneity and microphase separation.
