The development of facile methodologies to afford robust supported metal nanocatalysts under mild conditions is highly desirable yet challenging, particularly via strong metal-support interactions (SMSI) construction. State-of-the-art approaches capable generating SMSI encapsulation mainly focus on high temperature annealing in reductive/oxidative atmosphere. Herein, ultra-stable based construction were produced by leveraging the instantaneous high-energy input from ultrasonication ambient...
Direct air capture (DAC) of CO2 by solid porous materials represents an attractive "negative emission" technology. However, state-of-the-art sorbents based on supported amines still suffer from unsolved high energy consumption and stability issues. Herein, taking clues the interaction with superbase-derived ionic liquids (SILs), high-performance tunable in DAC was developed harnessing power CaO- SIL-engineered sorbents. Deploying mesoporous silica as substrate, a thin CaO layer first...
Porous liquids have traditionally been designed with sterically hindered solvents. Alternatively, recent efforts rely on dispersing microporous frameworks in simpler solvents like water. Here we report a unique strategy to construct macroporous water by selectively incorporating hydrophilicity the surfaces of hydrophobic hollow carbon spheres (HCS). Specifically, show that stable dispersion surface ionized HCS while retaining inherent porosity. The electrocatalytic conversion small gas...
High-entropy oxides (HEOs) are an emerging class of advanced ceramic materials capable stabilizing ultrasmall nanoparticle catalysts. However, their fabrication still relies on high-temperature thermal treatment methodologies affording nonporous architectures. Herein, we report a facile synthesis single-phase, fluorite-structured HEO nanocrystals via ultrasound-mediated co-precipitation strategy under ambient conditions. Within 15 min ultrasound exposure, high-quality (CeHfZrSnErOx) was...
The construction of strong metal–support interactions (SMSIs) represented an attractive approach to producing supported noble metal nanocatalysts possessing enhanced stability by overlayer encapsulation. development facile approaches capable achieving efficient, controllable, and extensive SMSI formation, particularly under neat ambient conditions, is a long-standing challenge. In this work, mechanochemistry-driven pathway was deployed for efficient controllable conditions customize the...
