Abstract Solar energy can be utilized in photocatalysis technology to realize light‐driven hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O ) production, a green chemical synthesis route. Designing high‐performance photocatalysts is critical achieving practical solar H production. During the past decade, significant research progress made photocatalytic materials for Particularly 2D materials‐based stand out due their unique physical and properties. This review highlights intricate relationship between material...
Covalent modification is commonly used to tune the channel size and functionality of 2D membranes. However, common synthesis strategies produce such modifications are known disrupt structure Herein, we report less intrusive yet equally effective non-covalent on Ti3C2Tx MXene membranes by a solvent treatment, where channels robustly decorated protic solvents via hydrogen bond network.

Although two-dimensional (2D) materials have grown into an extended family that accommodates hundreds of members and demonstrated promising advantages in many fields, their practical applications are still hindered by the lack scalable high-yield production monolayer products. Here, we show nanosheets can be achieved a facile ball-milling exfoliation method with assistance viscous polyethyleneimine (PEI) liquid. As demonstration, graphite is effectively exfoliated graphene nanosheets,...
The electrochemical extraction of lithium (Li) from aqueous sources using means is a promising direct Li technology. However, to this date, most studies are confined Li-rich brine, neglecting the practical and existing Li-lean resources, with their overall behaviors currently not fully understood. More still, effect elevated sodium (Na) concentrations typically found in water on unclear. Hence, work, we first understand ultradilute solutions spinel manganese oxide as model electrode. We...

Abstract One of the many possible ways to capture carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) is through electrochemical means. This an emerging approach with various merits. It energy efficient, utilizes renewable energy, operates under ambient conditions, provides ease for control reaction rates, and scalable. Additionally, it can be integrated as a plug‐and‐play module at scales, including large industrial sources or small scale, e.g., on vehicles, easily combine CO capture, storage, utilization into...
Sequential excitation energy and electron transfer (ET) are ubiquitous pathways for converting solar to chemical in photosynthesis. Mimicking this unique process synthesis is promising yet still a big challenge. Herein, taking photosynthesis as an inspiration, we demonstrate interesting pathway oxygen reduction hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), important valuable commodity chemical. The proposed route was verified on biomimetic photocatalyst, i.e., aluminum porphyrin metal–organic framework...
