The electrocatalytic process of water splitting offers a promising approach to produce sustainable hydrogen. However, the slow kinetics oxygen evolution reaction (OER) presents notable challenge, especially in acidic environment proton exchange membrane (PEM) systems. Despite extensive progress made catalyst development for hydrogen production through electrolysis last century, significant advancements have been accomplished. quest OER catalysts that possess both high activity and stability,...

Abstract 3Dtransition metal coordination clusters, as structurally diverse and designable metal‐organic hybrid systems, enable deliberate modulation of active sites bridging motifs within their structural kernels, making them ideal precursors for tailored nanostructures via pyrolysis. Through precise control over metal/organic ratios, the composition, spatial configuration, electronic structure derived nanomaterials can be effectively regulated, holding great promise establishing...
Transition metal oxides are widely pursued as potent electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). However, single-metal chromium catalysts remain underexplored due to their intrinsic activity limitations. Herein, we successfully synthesize mixed-valence, nitrogen-doped Cr2O3/CrO3/CrN@NC nanoelectrocatalysts via one-step targeted pyrolysis techniques from a binuclear Cr-based complex (Cr2(Salophen)2(CH3OH)2), which is strategically designed precursor. Comprehensive mechanisms...
Fenton-like reaction has been widely used for organics degradation. However, most works at low pH range (pH < 4) with uncontrollable selectivity of hydroxyl radicals from H2 O2 activation, and unsatisfied catalyst stability, which is compromised advanced oxidation performance water/wastewater treatments.

Exploiting stable and high-performance catalysts is a challenge in remediating organic pollutants (OPs) during advanced oxidation. Herein, this study reported MnFe2O4 decorated biochar (MnFe2O4/BC) as an adsorptive-catalyst for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation to degrade OPs. BC support not only increased the stability dispersibility but also decreased particle diameter of MnFe2O4. We demonstrated various OPs (50 mL, 20 mg·L−1) (including malachite green, bisphenol A, methylene blue,...
