A highly sensitive hierarchical electrochemical sensing nanostructures have been successfully synthesized by hydrothermal and chemical deposition methods using Au nanoparticles (AuNPs)-functionalized Metal-organic frameworks (MOF) derived oxide nickel nanosheets (NiO NSs) on nickel foam ([email protected] NSs/NF). The morphological characterization of AuNP...
The primary objective of many researchers in chemical synthesis is the development of recyclable and easily accessible catalysts. These catalysts should preferably be made from Earth-abundant metals and have the ability to be utilised in the synthesis of pharmaceutically important compounds. Amines are classified as privileged compounds, and are us...
Graphene-encapsulated nickel nanoparticles ([email protected]) were loaded on Zeolite Socony Mobil (ZSM)-5 for lipid hydrogenation to produce biojet fuel. [email protected] and ZSM-5 exhibit an efficient and synergistic catalytic activity, and the strong chemical interaction between graphene and nickel significantly improves the hydrogenation capacity of the catalyst. The g...

Defective nitrogen-doped carbon materials have shown a promising application as metal-free electrocatalysts in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, there are still some challenges in the tuning of metal-free electrocatalysts and in understanding the roles of various nitrogen species in their electr...
Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising technique for desalinating brine and purifying wastewater but low water flux and severe membrane fouling always plague its practical application. Developing new membranes with both high flux and fouling resistance is highly desirable. Here, a hydrophilic/hydrophobic Janus membrane that can simultaneously ac...

Making use of synergy and introducing defects can effectively regulate the electronic structure of carbon nanomaterials, which is of great importance for achieving desired electrochemical performance. Herein, we report a facile protocol for preparing S, N-doped graphene with simultaneous ferroferric oxide functionalization (Fe3O4-SNG), which is the...

Powder metallurgy (P/M) route is commonly adopted to fabricate titanium-matrix composites (TMCs). However, majority of the reinforcements are distributed along the grain boundaries, but are absent within the grains, such that the desired mechanical properties are rarely obtained. We have developed a novel process of interfacial/intragranular reinfo...
