The electrocatalytic nitrite reduction reaction (NO2–RR) occurs under mild conditions at ambient temperature and pressure can convert pollution into recycled ammonia. This method has great application potential in the purification of water environment field synthetic In this article, we present a to synthesize relatively uniformly dispersed gold nanoparticles on surface carbon cloth fibers (Au@CC) by hydrothermal self-assembly growth calcination without use adhesive process. We studied...
Although the present university-level chemistry experimental curriculum has been extensive and well-designed, it lacks a connection with scientific research field, especially frontier field. It is crucial to incorporate recent discoveries through new experiment designs bridge this gap boost value of undergraduate course. Under background advancing times, paper integrates results electrocatalytic ammonia synthesis (through nitrogen reduction reaction, NRR) into teaching classes, which...
Developing solid-state hydrogen storage materials is as pressing ever, which requires a comprehensive understanding of the dehydrogenation chemistry hydride. Transition state search and kinetics calculations are essential to designing high-performance by filling in knowledge gap that current experimental techniques cannot measure. However, ab initio analysis these processes computationally expensive time-consuming. Searching for descriptors accurately predict energy barrier urgently needed,...
Abstract As an ideal transition metal oxide, Co 3 O 4 is a P-type semiconductor with excellent electrical conductivity, non-toxicity and low cost. This work reports the successful construction of materials derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) using surfactant micelle template-solvothermal method. The modified electrodes are investigated for their ability to electrochemically detect Pb 2+ Cu in aqueous environments. By adjusting mass ratios alkaline modifiers, morphological...

Bi-doped MnMoO 4 nanorods prepared by a simple hydrothermal method exhibit an excellent electrocatalytic nitrogen gas reduction performance at −0.40 V vs. RHE.
A simple hydrothermal synthesis method was developed to prepare bimetallic oxide MnMoO 4 rod-like materials. The typical sample exhibits excellent electrocatalytic NRR performance.
Ammonia (NH3) is a significant chemical and carbon-free energy carrier with important applications in industry agriculture. primarily produced through the Haber–Bosch process (HB), which necessitates high temperatures pressures, consumes amount of energy, produces substantial CO2. Electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction (NRR) for ammonia synthesis promising alternative to HB due its mild reaction conditions low consumption. However, yields reported nonmetallic or metallic NRR catalysts are still...
We propose an innovative strategy that utilizes the space charge distribution characteristics of co-monomer to solve trade-off between optimizing dielectric performance polymers and maintaining other comprehensive properties.
Bimetallic oxides generally exhibit excellent electrochemical properties because of their strong electrocatalytic activity and the synergistic effects between different metals. In this work, three-dimensional flower-like nickel–manganese bimetallic @ carbon cloth (NiMnOx@CC) were synthesized by in situ growth on with a simple hydrothermal reaction.
