This review describes recent advances in two-dimensional MoS<sub>2</sub> nanosheets and their composite materials for understanding high-electrocatalytic performance HER ORR.
This review aims at providing an overview of the interactions between Pt and supports from experimental theoretical results, in hope correlating metal–support with activity durability catalysts fuel cells.
It is challenging to control the catalyst activation and deactivation by removal addition of only one central atom, as it almost impossible precisely abstract an atom from a conventional analyze its catalysis. Here we report that loss in Au25 (resulting Au24 ) enhances catalytic activity oxidation methane compared original .

Atomically precise metal clusters have gained academic interest for correlating their properties with crystallographic structures at an atomic level. However, these usually suffer from poor stability, precluding industrial applications. Here, we overcome the limitation by constructing heterogeneous cluster catalysts, in which are firmly affixed to framework of SiO2 aerogel means synergism between surface and oxygen aerogel, thereby significantly suppressing potential aggregation...
