The occurrence of HE begins with the initial process of hydrogen dissociative adsorption. However, due to the complicated gaseous environment, the interactions between CH4 and H2 adsorption on pipeline surfaces continue to be controversial. In this study, the influence of CH4 on H2 surface adsorption was demonstrated by the in-situ hydrogen permeation test on 20# steel. Based on Electron Backscatter Diffraction results, the interactions of H2 and CH4 adsorption on Fe(100) and high-angle grain boundary (HAGB) surfaces were calculated by DFT methods. The results determine the possibility of CH4 dissociative adsorption on the pipeline surface and reveal that H2 promotes the dissociative adsorption of CH4 on HAGBs, whereas CH4 inhibits the dissociative adsorption of H2. Moreover, the inhibitory effect of CH4 on the dissociative adsorption of H2 is positively correlated with the adsorption time of CH4 on the surface. The mechanism of interactions between CH4 and H2 was clarified that CH4 increases the energy barrier of dissociative adsorption of H2. In turn, the pre-adsorbed H2 can change the charge of HAGB surface, increasing the electrons available for CH4 dissociative adsorption.","PeriodicalId":247,"journal":{"name":"Applied Surface Science","volume":"21 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143666186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, the preparation of hierarchically periodic macroporous (HPM) architecture by pyrolytic restructuring of ZnS is demonstrated, thereby yielding a series of heterojunctions composed alternately of ZnS and ZnO. The HPM architecture effectively shortens the carrier transport distance and elevates the charge transport efficiency. The alternating bridge connections of ZnS and ZnO constrained by the HPM architecture, facilitate the presence of quantum wells under the double Z-scheme mechanism. The effective separation of photogenerated carriers is enabled by this configuration, and their recombination rates are reduced, and the redox capacity of the heterojunctions is enhanced. Through synergistic influences of quantum wells and HPM architectures, the HPM ZnS-ZnO heterojunctions showcase remarkable photocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance. This work demonstrates that quantum wells represent a powerful strategy for energy band engineering, when combined synergistically with HPM nanoarchitectures, they can significantly enhance photocatalytic performance.","PeriodicalId":247,"journal":{"name":"Applied Surface Science","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143666187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Nonetheless, the adhesion energy between the vdW ferroelectric and various substrates determines the interfacial mechanical properties and operational stability. Consequently, accurately quantifying the adhesion energy of vdW ferroelectrics on various substrates is a crucial step in achieving reliable two-dimensional electronic devices.

Herein, we synthesized CuS/Fe3O4@MIL-100(Fe) (CFM) ternary composites using hydrothermal and in-situ growth methods to enhance the degradation of oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTC-HCl) in a Fenton-like photocatalytic system. The incorporation of CuS as a co-catalyst into the double iron-based system significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity, achieving a 95.31 % degradation efficiency for OTC-HCl within 50 min under optimized conditions. The catalyst had good reusability, has 86.64 % degradation efficiency after five magnetic recovery cycles, and still showed good catalytic performance in the presence of five different concentrations of common anions. Further analysis using active species quenching and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments revealed the role of oxygen-containing radicals in the process. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provided OTC-HCl degradation pathways and intermediates.

Consequently, ZnIn2S4(102)-20BN (ZIS-20BN) photocatalysts showed a remarkable photocatalytic H2 production performance of 3.61 mmol/gcat/h with a 10 W LED as the light source, 1.64 times higher than that of ZnIn2S4(102) (ZIS-(102)). Moreover, characterization and density functional theory calculations demonstrated that ZIS-(102) exhibited the lowest work function and the introduction of an appropriate amount of h-BN induced the formation of the van der Waals heterostructure, which are conducive to the improvement of the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution activity and stability.

The introduction of mesopores into Ce-UiO-66 can effectively enhance the transfer and adsorption of the substrate, and Ni NPs act as the main active centers.
