Published: Sept. 19, 2024

Abstract High entropy materials (HEMs) compositing of at least five elements have gained widespread attention in the field electrocatalysis due to their tunable activities and high stability. These intrinsic properties can be further highlighted when size HEMs comes nanoscale. In nanostructured HEMs, fascinating including large composition space, multi‐element synergy, configuration are expected endow nano‐HEMs with excellent catalytic activity stability, thus providing greater potential for design advanced electrocatalysts. this review, differentiated detail dimensions common synthesis methods summarized. Additionally, from perspective complex nanostructure‐performance relationship, applications systems, water‐splitting (hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen (OER)), hydrogen oxidation (HOR), reduction (ORR), carbon dioxide (CO 2 RR), nitrogen (NRR) alcohol (AOR) discussed. Finally, main challenges faced by underscored. This review is provide more insights into understanding developing efficient electrocatalytic practical applications.

Photothermal Composites for In-Situ Trace Oil Detection on Ultra-Clean Surfaces

Published: Jan. 1, 2025

Oil is widely used as a lubricant in many industries. However, the final product, oil often considered contaminant. In various production processes, such semiconductor manufacturing, precision machining, and optical device fabrication, ultra-clean surfaces are crucial. residues on these can adversely affect product performance quality. Detecting controlling enables enhancing reliability consistency. Previous lipid detection studies necessitate complex pre-processing, large instruments, or specialized manipulation data reading capabilities. Existing methods for trace still cannot achieve on-site real-time monitoring. This study presents photothermal conversion-based platform detection. Using polyester fiber membranes substrate, composite material of chitosan MXene was modified to detect under near-infrared excitation at 808 nanometers. Due their inherent thermal conductivity ability trap heat inside, molecules intensify material's temperature rise. By connecting imaging module smartphone, be achieved.

2D Metastable‐Phase Hafnium Oxide Triggers Hydrogen Spillover for Boosting Hydrogen Production

Advanced Materials, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: unknown

Published: Feb. 27, 2025

Abstract Hydrogen (H) manipulation plays a significantly important role in many applications, which the occurrence of hydrogen spillover generally shows substrate‐dependent behavior. It therefore remains an open question about how to trigger on substrates that are forbidden. Here new metastable‐phase 2D edge‐sharing oxide: six‐hexagonal phase‐hafnium oxide (Hex‐HfO 2 , space group: P6 3 mc (186)) with coordination number six is demonstrated, serves as ideal platform for activating efficient after loading Ru nanoclusters (Ru/Hex‐HfO ). For stark comparison, strongly forbidden when using stable monoclinic phase HfO (M‐HfO P2 1 /c (14), number: seven) substrate. When applied acidic evolution reaction (HER), Ru/Hex‐HfO exhibits low overpotential 8 mV at 10 mA cm −2 and high utilization activity 14.37 A mg −1 30 mV. Detailed mechanism reveals positive H adsorption free energy Hex‐HfO indicating more likely . Furthermore, strong interaction between optimizes desorption intermediate, thus facilitating surface spillover. The discovery provides guidance developing advanced catalysis.
