Recent advances of single-atom alloy catalyst: Properties, synthetic methods and electrocatalytic applications

Jiahao Zhuang, Dingsheng Wang · 27 Jun 2023

Developing high-performance and cost-effective electrocatalysts for clean and renewable energy conversion process has been proved a promising approach to deal with the global energy and environment issues. Single-atom alloy (SAA) catalyst, with foreign metal atoms atomically dispersed in the surface of a host metal, combines the merits of conventional metal alloys and single-atom catalysts. The…

Recent progress of low-dimensional metal sulfides photocatalysts for energy and environmental applications

Jun Di, Wei Jiang · 17 Mar 2023

Due to the unique structure and electronic properties of low-dimensional materials, enormous potential can be achieved over low-dimensional materials for high-efficiency photocatalytic activity. Metal sulfide semiconductors with abundant optionality of various metal element, multi metal combination and ratio regulation shows favorable electronic structure adjustability. This review summarizes recent advances in the design, tuning and photocatalytic…

Graphitic carbon nitride-based electrocatalysts for energy applications

Yaping Chen, Bingxing Zhang, Yongfeng Liu et al. · 12 May 2023

Layered graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has sparked extensive interest in energy applications due to the unique physicochemical properties, tunable molecular structure, and high stability. Herein, we review the research progress of g-C3N4-based electrocatalysts for energy applications and summarize their design strategies from the perspectives of surface engineering and interfacial engineering, including heteroatom doping, defect engineering,…

MXene-based catalysts: A review

Ali Hamzehlouy, Masoud Soroush · 27 May 2024

Two-dimensional (2D) materials, such as graphene, hexagonal boron nitride, 2D metal–organic frameworks, layered double hydroxides, transition metal dichalcogenides, and MXenes, have garnered significant attention in catalysis due to their exceptional properties and structures. Notably, recent studies have revealed the promising catalytic activity of MXene-based catalysts for many reactions, including hydrogen evolution, oxygen evolution, oxygen reduction,…

Catalysts for selective hydrogenation of acetylene: A review

Kefeng Xie, Kai Xu, Mingqiang Liu et al. · 12 Oct 2023

Ethylene is a crucial industrial feedstock in the petrochemical sector. However, the presence of a small amount of acetylene impurities in ethylene products will directly affect the next application of ethylene. Acetylene semi-hydrogenation is an effective strategy to remove trace acetylene impurities (0.5-2.0%) from the ethylene stream to avoid poisoning the Ziegler-Natta catalyst. The development…
