Holey support: The generation of a porous coating SiO2 on Pt-decorated TiO2 nanofibers enables the preparation sinter-resistant catalytic system (see picture). Pt nanoparticles could resist sintering at temperatures up to 750 °C in air, as acts physical barrier that slows down surface migration, but remained catalytically active because nature coating. Detailed facts importance specialist readers are published "Supporting Information". Such documents peer-reviewed, not copy-edited or...

Homogeneously mixing multiple metal elements within a single particle may offer new material property functionalities. High entropy alloys (HEAs), nominally defined as structures containing five or more well-mixed elements, are being explored at the nanoscale, but scale-up to enable their industrial application is an extremely challenging problem. Here, we report aerosol droplet-mediated technique toward scalable synthesis of HEA nanoparticles with atomic-level immiscible elements. An...

Although high-entropy alloys (HEAs) have shown tremendous potential for elevated temperature, anticorrosion, and catalysis applications, little is known on how HEA materials behave under complex service environments. Herein, we studied the high-temperature oxidation behavior of Fe0.28Co0.21Ni0.20Cu0.08Pt0.23HEA nanoparticles (NPs) in an atmospheric pressure dry air environment by situ gas-cell transmission electron microscopy. It found that NPs governed Kirkendall effects with logarithmic...

The reactivity of surface-adsorbed species present on copper catalysts during methanol synthesis at low temperatures was studied by simultaneous infrared spectroscopy (IR) and mass (MS) measurements "titration" (transient surface reaction) experiments with isotopic tracing. results show that adsorbed formate is a major bystander the under steady-state reaction conditions, but it cannot be converted to pure H2 or plus added water. Formate-containing adlayers for these were produced catalysis...

Metallic bismuth (Bi) has been widely explored as remarkable anode material in alkali-ion batteries due to its high gravimetric/volumetric capacity. However, the huge volume expansion up ≈406% from Bi full potassiation phase K3 Bi, inducing slow kinetics and poor cycling stability, hinders implementation potassium-ion (PIBs). Here, facile strategy is developed synthesize hierarchical nanodots/graphene (BiND/G) composites with ultrahigh-rate durable potassium ion storage derived an situ...

We have attempted to hydrogenate adsorbed formate species on copper catalysts probe the importance of this postulated mechanistic step in methanol synthesis. Surface coverages up 0.25 were produced at temperatures between 413 and 453 K supported (Cu/SiO2) unsupported catalysts. The adlayers by various methods including (1) steady-state catalytic conditions CO2−H2 (3:1, 6 bar) atmospheres (2) exposure formic acid. As reported previous work, surface steady state contains bidentate with...

Understanding the behavior of high-entropy alloy (HEA) materials under hydrogen (H2) environment is utmost importance for their promising applications in structural materials, catalysis, and energy-related reactions. Herein, reduction oxidized FeCoNiCuPt HEA nanoparticles (NPs) atmospheric pressure H2 was investigated by situ gas-cell transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The reaction front maintained at external surface oxide. During reduction, oxide layer expanded transformed into porous...
