The integration of HgS and CuO into the MOF framework aims to leverage the unique electronic and structural properties of both the nanoparticles and the MOFs to improve catalytic performance. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), particularly ZIF-67, are investigated for their potential to catalyze water-splitting reactions due to their high porosity and large specific surface areas. The strategic incorporation of HgS and CuO into ZIF-67 significantly enhances its electrocatalytic properties, resulting in remarkable performance metrics: a low overpotential of 246 mV at 10 mA/cm2, a Tafel slope of 123 mV/dec, an expanded electrochemical active surface area (ECSA) of 23.56 cm2, and a reduced charge transfer resistance of 34.86 Ω. This integration enhances porosity and increases active surface area, which is crucial for improved catalytic performance. This investigation introduces an innovative methodology for fabricating highly efficient electrocatalysts, positioning HgS/CuO/ZIF-67 as a promising candidate for oxygen evolution reactions in alkaline media. The findings highlight the potential of this novel nanocomposite in future clean energy applications, particularly in the realm of water-splitting technologies.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":" ","pages":"e202400956"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143188275","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TiO2 can be modified to show photocatalytic activity under visible light illumination by combining with visible-light absorbing metal oxides. Here, we investigated Co3O4/TiO2 composite materials as visible-light absorbing photocatalysts, with various weight loadings of Co3O4, for the decolorization of wastewater pollutant indigo carmine. Under green LED light, 1.4 wt% Co3O4/TiO2 showed the highest decolorization rate compared to other weight loadings and bare TiO2. While UV-Vis spectroscopy indicated that Co3O4/TiO2 composite materials and bare TiO2 cause similar dye decolorization behavior, NMR spectroscopy showed that after 24 h, reaction products were present in the reaction mixture for 1.4 wt% Co3O4/TiO2, while TiO2 showed no reaction products. The lack of photocatalytic activity of Co3O4/zeolite and other Co3O4/oxide composite materials suggests a synergistic effect between Co3O4 and TiO2, where a small amount of Co3O4 enables TiO2 to utilize visible light without compromising the surface area available for ROS creation. Lastly, we emphasize the need to be cautious when drawing conclusions regarding the dye degradation, since we showed that decolorization does not necessarily equate to full degradation, using a unique combination of UV-Vis and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":" ","pages":"e202400688"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143188278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we propose a low-temperature lithium-metal battery electrolyte. 1,2-Dimethoxyethane (DME) is used as the solvent, 2H,3H-decafluoropentane (HFC) as the diluent, and a high concentration of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) as the solute. The addition of HFC diluent increases the number of anions bound to lithium ions and decreases the number of solvents in the solvation structure, which is conducive to the desolvation process at low temperatures. In addition, the anion-dominated solvation structure is conducive to the formation of an inorganic rich solid electrolyte interface (SEI), which effectively enhances the compatibility of LHCE-HFC electrolyte with lithium metal. The LHCE-HFC achieves ultra-high coulombic efficiency of lithium metal anode in Li||Cu batteries (99.31 %) and Li||Li batteries (1080 h) that have strong fluorine content in the interface.

Our results indicate that both compounds are mechanically stable in structure Type 1 and possess negative formation energies. Additionally, ZrBAu and ZrAlAu display semiconducting behavior, with ZrBAu showing a direct band gap, 0.753 eV (0.774 eV) at point Γ→X and ZrAlAu exhibiting an indirect band gap, 0.431 eV (0.482 eV) at point Γ→Γ, using the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and Modified Becke and Johnson-generalized gradient approximation (mBJ-GGA), respectively. Based on optical properties, both ZrBAu and ZrAlAu exhibit high optical conductivity within the visible spectrum. In terms of visible light absorption, ZrBAu primarily absorbs blue light, while ZrAlAu absorbs yellow, blue-green and violet light. However, both compounds are effective absorbers of UV light. Regarding thermoelectric performance, the thermoelectric parameters reveal that ZrBAu and ZrAlAu demonstrate significant p-type thermoelectric power.

The source of these differences was explored computationally, using the DFT method. The results indicate that up to six radicals can be adsorbed on Ag(111) and Au(111), (top site), while only four can be adsorbed on Cu(111) (fcc site), each surface containing eight atoms. The diffusion of the radicals on the surface is very easy on silver and copper, as this is achieved with a very low barrier (0.06 eV and 0.15 eV for Ag(111) and Cu(111), respectively), while on Au(111), the barrier is higher, 0.51 eV. The formation of ethane via a reaction of two adsorbed radicals is thermodynamically plausible for all studied coverage ratios on the three surfaces, but kinetically, it is plausible at room temperature only on Au(111) and Ag(111) at full coverage. Ethane can also be produced on Au(111) and Ag(111) by a collision of a solvated radical and an adsorbed radical. This is a barrierless process. On Cu(111), the yield of such a process is CH4(aq), and an adsorbed CH2 which reacts further with a non-adsorbed water molecule to produce adsorbed CH3OH.","PeriodicalId":9819,"journal":{"name":"Chemphyschem","volume":" ","pages":"e202400979"},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2025-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143078730","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Organic anode materials are potential for efficient SIBs because they are not sensitive to the size of metal ions. Yet they still suffer from shortcomings such as low electrical conductivity, and solubility in electrolyte. Formation of nanocomposite with carbon materials is an efficient way to address these issues. Herein, we design a thiophene-based carboxylate compound STT, and the STT@rGO nanocomposite is also in situ formed as anode material for SIBs. The reduced graphene oxide (rGO) could improve conductivity and decrease the solubility of the anode material. Compared to the pristine STT electrode, STT@rGO delivers a reversible specific capacity of 178 mAh g-1, with a capacity retention rate of 86 % after 1000 cycles.
