The nanosized cobalt-based catalysts were characterized by XRD, TEM and BET techniques. Their catalytic performances were tested in a slurry-bed reactor under FTS reaction conditions. The drying and crystallization were carried out simultaneously during SCFD, therefore, the catalysts prepared by SCFD method have ideal structure and show the FTS performance superior to the others prepared by CD method. The FTS activity and selectivity were improved via adding Zn, Mn and K promoters, and less CH4 and CO2 as well as higher yield of C5＋ products were achieved. The optimal performance of a 92% CO conversion and a 65% C5＋ product yield was obtained over a catalyst with the component of Co/Zn/Mn/K = 100/50/10/7. Furthermore, the catalytic performance was studied under the conditions of liquid-phase and supercritical phase slurry-bed, and C5＋ product yield were 57.4% and 65.4%, respectively. In summary, better catalytic performance was obtained using the nanosized catalyst prepared by SCFD method under supercritical reaction conditions, resulting in higher conversion of CO, less CO2 byproduct, and higher yield of C5＋ products.展开更多

文摘A cobalt-based catalyst was directly photo-deposited on the surface of a widely used n-type nano-structured semiconductor(TiO_(2)).Different thicknesses of the TiO 2 films as well as different time of photo-deposition of the Co-based catalyst on TiO_(2) films have been optimized.It was found that the electrode with 3 layers of TiO_(2) film(in 8 m thickness) and 1 hour photo-deposition of the cobalt-based catalyst by light irradiation from a 500 W Xenon lamp gave the highest current density(~5 mA/cm^(2)).Using this cobalt-modified TiO_(2) film as a working electrode in an electrochemical device,highly efficient water oxidation has been demonstrated in a pH 7.0 aqueous solution with low overpotential.

文摘Mo element was added to cobalt-based alloy L605,and cold forging deformation was performed.The effects of the addition and cold forging deformation on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were studied by thermodynamic calculation,electron backscatter diffraction,transmission electron microscopy,and X-ray diffraction.The stacking fault energy(SFE)of the alloy decreased after the addition,and the formation of stacking faults and intersections were promoted to improve the strength and hardness.The tensile strength of the alloy with Mo increased from 1190 to 1702 MPa after 24%cold deformation,producing significant work hardening.The strengthening mechanism is strain-induced martensitic transformation(SIMT)and deformation twinning.The alloy,combined with Mo and after 24%deformation,had both high strength and ductility in comparison with the original cobalt-based alloy L605.This is attributed to the lower SFE which caused the increase in stacking fault density.During the tensile process,theε-hcp phase was easily generated at the stacking fault to reduce the stress concentration and increase the ductility.Controlling SIMT by adjusting the density of stacking faults can improve the mechanical properties of cobalt-based alloys.Theε-hcp phase,the interaction between deformation twins and dislocations,and the interaction between e-hcp phases during cold forging deformation caused local stress concentration,lowering ductility and toughness.

文摘To improve the efficiency of cathodic oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)in zinc-air batteries(ZABs),an adsorption-complexation-calcination method was proposed to generate cobalt-based multicomponent nanoparticles comprising Co,Co_(3)O_(4)and CoN,as well as numerous N heteroatoms,on graphene nanosheets(Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN/NG).The Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN nanoparticles with the size of less than 50 nm are homogeneously dispersed on N-doped graphene(NG)substrate,which greatly improve the catalytic behaviors for ORR.The results show that the half-wave potential is as high as 0.80 V vs.RHE and the limiting current density is 4.60 mA·cm^(−2),which are close to those of commercially available platinum/carbon(Pt/C)catalysts.Applying as cathodic catalyst for ZABs,the battery shows large specific capacity and open circuit voltage of 843.0 mAh∙g^(−1) and 1.41 V,respectively.The excellent performance is attributed to the efficient two-dimensional structure with high accessible surface area and the numerous multiple active sites provided by highly scattered Co/Co_(3)O_(4)/CoN particles and doped nitrogen on the carbon matrix.

文摘In this study,wearable triboelectric nanogenerators comprising bar-printed polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF)films incorporated with cobalt-based metal-organic framework(Co-MOF)were developed.The enhanced output performance of the TENGs was attributed to the phase transition of PVDF from a-crystals toβ-crystals,as facilitated by the incorporation of the MOF.The synthesis conditions,including metal ion,concentration,and particle size of the MOF,were optimized to increase open-circuit voltage(VOC)and open-circuit current(I_(SC))of PVDF-based TENGs.In addition to high operational stability,mechanical robustness,and long-term reliability,the developed TENG consisting of PVDF incorporated with Co-MOF(Co-MOF@PVDF)achieved a VOC of 194 V and an I_(SC)of 18.8μA.Furthermore,the feasibility of self-powered mobile electronics was demonstrated by integrating the developed wearable TENG with rectifier and control units to power a global positioning system(GPS)device.The local position of the user in real-time through GPS was displayed on a mobile interface,powered by the battery charged through friction-induced electricity generation.

文摘Green hydrogen from water splitting has emerged as a critical energy vector with the potential to spearhead the global transition to a fossil fuel-independent society.The field of catalysis has been revolutionized by single-atom catalysts(SACs),which exhibit unique and intricate interactions between atomically dispersed metal atoms and their supports.Recently,bimetallic SACs(bimSACs)have garnered significant attention for leveraging the synergistic functions of two metal ions coordinated on appropriately designed supports.BimSACs offer an avenue for rich metal–metal and metal–support cooperativity,potentially addressing current limitations of SACs in effectively furnishing transformations which involve synchronous proton–electron exchanges,substrate activation with reversible redox cycles,simultaneous multi-electron transfer,regulation of spin states,tuning of electronic properties,and cyclic transition states with low activation energies.This review aims to encapsulate the growing advancements in bimSACs,with an emphasis on their pivotal role in hydrogen generation via water splitting.We subsequently delve into advanced experimental methodologies for the elaborate characterization of SACs,elucidate their electronic properties,and discuss their local coordination environment.Overall,we present comprehensive discussion on the deployment of bimSACs in both hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction,the two half-reactions of the water electrolysis process.

文摘Conversion of carbon dioxide(CO_(2))into valuable chemicals and renewable fuels via photocatalysis represents an eco-friendly route to achieve the goal of carbon neutralization.Although various types of semiconductor materials have been intensively explored,some severe issues,such as rapid charge recombination and sluggish redox reaction kinetics,remain.In this regard,cocatalyst modifi cation by trapping charges and boosting surface reactions is one of the most effi cient strategies to improve the effi ciency of semiconductor photocatalysts.This review focuses on recent advances in CO_(2)photoreduction over costeff ective and earth-abundant cobalt(Co)-based cocatalysts,which are competitive candidates of noble metals for practical applications.First,the functions of Co-based cocatalysts for promoting photocatalytic CO_(2)reduction are briefl y discussed.Then,diff erent kinds of Co-based cocatalysts,including cobalt oxides and hydroxides,cobalt nitrides and phosphides,cobalt sulfi des and selenides,Co single-atom,and Co-based metal–organic frameworks(MOFs),are summarized.The underlying mechanisms of these Co-based cocatalysts for facilitating CO_(2)adsorption–activation,boosting charge separation,and modulating intermediate formation are discussed in detail based on experimental characterizations and density functional theory calculations.In addition,the suppression of the competing hydrogen evolution reaction using Co-based cocatalysts to promote the product selectivity of CO_(2)reduction is highlighted in some selected examples.Finally,the challenges and future perspectives on constructing more effi cient Co-based cocatalysts for practical applications are proposed.

文摘S and Co co-doped carbon catalysts were prepared via pyrolysis of MOF-71 and thiourea mixtures at 800℃at a mass ratio of MOF-71 to thiourea of 1:0.1 to effectively activate peroxymonosulfate(PMS)for methylene blue(MB)degradation.The effects of two different mixing routes were identified on the MB degradation performance.Particularly,the catalyst obtained by the alcohol solvent evaporation(MOF-AEP)mixing route could degrade 95.60%MB(50 mg/L)within 4 min(degradation rate:K=0.78 min^(-1)),which was faster than that derived from the direct grinding method(MOF-DGP,80.97%,K=0.39 min^(-1)).X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the Co-S content of MOF-AEP(43.39at%)was less than that of MOF-DGP(54.73at%),and the proportion of C-S-C in MOF-AEP(13.56at%)was higher than that of MOF-DGP(10.67at%).Density functional theory calculations revealed that the adsorption energy of Co for PMS was -2.94 eV when sulfur was doped as C-S-C on the carbon skeleton,which was higher than that when sulfur was doped next to cobalt in the form of Co-S bond(-2.86 eV).Thus,the C-S-C sites might provide more contributions to activate PMS compared with Co-S.Furthermore,the degradation parameters,including pH and MOF-AEP dosage,were investigated.Finally,radical quenching experiments and electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)measurements revealed that ^(1)O_(2)might be the primary catalytic species,whereas·O~(2-)might be the secondary one in degrading MB.

文摘The pursuit of alternative fuel generation technologies has gained momentum due to the diminishing reserves of fossil fuels and global warming from increased CO_(2)emission.Among the proposed methods,the hydrogenation of CO_(2)to produce marketable carbon-based products like methanol and ethanol is a practical approach that offers great potential to reduce CO_(2)emissions.Although significant volumes of methanol are currently produced from CO_(2),developing highly efficient and stable catalysts is crucial for further enhancing conversion and selectivity,thereby reducing process costs.An in-depth examination of the differences and similarities in the reaction pathways for methanol and ethanol production highlights the key factors that drive C-C coupling.Identifying these factors guides us toward developing more effective catalysts for ethanol synthesis.In this paper,we explore how different catalysts,through the production of various intermediates,can initiate the synthesis of methanol or ethanol.The catalytic mechanisms proposed by spectroscopic techniques and theoretical calculations,including operando X-ray methods,FTIR analysis,and DFT calculations,are summarized and presented.The following discussion explores the structural properties and composition of catalysts that influence C-C coupling and optimize the conversion rate of CO_(2)into ethanol.Lastly,the review examines recent catalysts employed for selective methanol and ethanol production,focusing on single-atom catalysts.

文摘Ni-based catalysts are widely applied in the hydrodeoxygenation of lignin derivatives via C-O cleavage for the production of cycloalkanes.However,they often have difficulty in achieving high activity under mild conditions and exhibit relatively poor stability,and rare studies focus on the cleavage of the stubborn interunit C-C linkages.To address this issue,we developed a Ni@AlPO_(4)/Al_(2)O_(3)catalyst in which the surface of Ni nanoparticles was decorated by AlPO_(4)species,demonstrating excellent catalytic activity and stability in the C-C and C-O cleavages.In the hydrodeoxygenation of guaiacol,this catalyst afforded99.1%conversion and 92.9%yield of cyclohexane under 1 MPa H_(2)at 230℃ for 2 h.More important,this catalyst maintained unchanged performance even after 6 runs with the conversion controlled at about50%,Mecha nistic investigations revealed that the moderate surface coverage of AlPO_(4)on Ni with the formation of Ni^(δ+)-AlPO_(4)interface significantly facilitated the conversion of methoxycyclohexanol and cyclohexanol to cyclohexane,whereas,excess coverage would also block the access to Ni site.Moreover,Ni@AlPO_(4)/Al_(2)O_(3)demonstrated broad applicability in the C-O cleavage of various typical lignin monomers and dimers into cycloalkanes.To our delight,this catalyst also displayed pretty good activity even in the simultaneous cleavage of C-C linkages and C-O bonds for the lignin-derived C-C dimers,achieving cycloalkanes as final products.As a consequence,a 27.1 wt%yield of monocycloalkanes was obtained in the depolymerization of poplar lignin with both C-C and C-O cleavages.

文摘Exploiting non-precious metal catalysts with excellent oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)performance for energy devices is paramount essential for the green and sustainable society development.Herein,low-cost,high-performance biomass-derived ORR catalysts with an asymmetric Fe-N_(3)P configuration was prepared by a simple pyrolysis-etching technique,where carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)was used as the carbon source,urea and 1,10-phenanthroline iron complex(FePhen)as additives,and Na_(3)PO_(4)as the phosphorus dopant and a pore-forming agent.The CMC-derived FeNPC catalyst displayed a large specific area(BET:1235 m^(2)g^(-1))with atomically dispersed Fe-N_(3)P active sites,which exhibited superior ORR activity and stability in alkaline solution(E_(1/2)=0.90 V vs.RHE)and Zn-air batteries(P_(max)=149 mW cm^(-2))to commercial Pt/C catalyst(E_(1/2)=0.87 V,P_(max)=118 mW cm^(-2))under similar experimental conditions.This work provides a feasible and costeffective route toward highly efficient ORR catalysts and their application to Zn-air batteries for energy conversion.
文摘The efficient hydrogenolysis of esters to alkanes is the key protocol for producing advanced biofuels from renewable plant oils or fats.Due to the low reactivity of the carbonyl group in esters,a high reaction temperature(>250℃)is the prerequisite to ensure high conversion of esters.Here,we report a highly dispersed MoO_(x)-Ru/C bimetallic catalyst for the efficient hydrogenolysis of esters to alkanes under 150°C.The optimal catalyst exhibits>99%conversion of methyl stearate and 99%selectivity to diesel-range alkanes,reaching a high rate of up to 2.0 mmol gcat^(–1)h^(–1),5 times higher than that of Ru/C catalyst(MoO_(x)/C is inert).Integrated experimental and theoretical investigations attribute the high performance to the abundant MoO_(x)-Ru interfacial sites on the catalyst surface,which offers high activity for the C–O cleavage of esters.Furthermore,the dispersed MoO_(x)species significantly weaken the hydrocracking activity of the metallic Ru for C–C bonds,thus yielding alkane products without carbon loss.This study provides a facile and novel strategy for the design of high-performance heterogeneous catalysts for the hydrodeoxygenation of biomass-derived esters to alkane products.

文摘Novel hydrogen storage materials have propelled progress in hydrogen storage technologies.Magnesium hydride(MgH_(2))is a highly promising candidate.Nevertheless,several drawbacks,including the need for elevated thermal conditions,sluggish dehydrogena-tion kinetics,and high thermodynamic stability,limit its practical application.One effective method of addressing these challenges is cata-lyst doping,which effectively boosts the hydrogen storage capability of Mg-based materials.Herein,we review recent advancements in catalyst-doped MgH_(2) composites,with particular focus on multicomponent and high-entropy catalysts.Structure-property relationships and catalytic mechanisms in these doping strategies are also summarized.Finally,based on existing challenges,we discuss future research directions for the development of Mg-based hydrogen storage systems.
文摘To improve the catalytic performance of La_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.2)Fe_(0.8)O_(3)(LSCF)towards carbon soot,we utilized the impregnation method to incorporate Ag into the prepared LSCF catalyst.We conducted a series of characterization tests and evaluated the soot catalytic activity of the composite catalyst by comparing it with the LaCoO_(3) group,LaFeO_(3) group,and catalyst-free group.The results indicate that the Ag-LSCF composite catalyst exhibits the highest soot catalytic activity,with the characteristic temperature values of 376.3,431.1,and 473.9℃at 10%,50%,and 90%carbon soot conversion,respectively.These values are 24.8,20.2,and 23.1℃lower than those of the LSCF group.This also shows that LSCF can improve the catalytic activity of soot after compounding with Ag,and reflects the necessity of using catalysts in soot combustion reaction.XPS characterization and BET test show that Ag-LSCF has more abundant surface-adsorbed oxygen species,larger specific surface area and pore volume than LSCF,which also proves that Ag-LSCF has higher soot catalytic activity.
