These catalysts were characterized by X-ray diffractometry(XRD), Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDS). The results showed that all carbon-based catalysts held the octahedron shape of Cu-BTC in most parts, and they mainly consisted of face-centered cubic copper. CuO_x/C exhibited excellent catalytic activity, and such catalytic activity was further improved with the introduction of Ag. The catalyst with a Cu to Ag mole ratio of 6:1 and an activated temperature of 600 °C showed the best catalytic performance, and its catalytic denitration rate reached 100% at a temperature as low as 235 °C. During the catalytic reaction process, Cu~+ mainly played a catalytic role.展开更多

Despite tremendous ef- forts, highly active catalysts with low cost remain elusive. This work used metal-organic frameworks to synthesize non-precious bimetallic carbon nanocomposites as efficient ORR catalysts. Although carbon-based Cu and Ni are good candidates, the hybrid nanocomposites take advantage of both metals to improve catalytic activity. The resulting molar ratio of Cu/Ni in the nanocomposites can be finely controlled by tuning the recipe of the precursors. Nanocom- posites with a series of molar ratios were produced, and they exhibited much better ORR catalytic performance than their monometallic counterparts in terms of limited current density, onset potential and half-wave potential. In addition, their extraordinary stability in alkaline is superior to that of commercially-available Pt-based materials, which adds to the appeal of the bimetallic carbon nanocomposites as ORR catalysts. Their improved performance can be attributed to the synergetic effects of Cu and Ni, and the enhancement of the carbon matrix.展开更多

According to the Mars-van Krevelen mechanism, oxygen vacancies of Co3O4 play a significant role in catalytic activity. Herein, we report a novel structure-induced strategy to develop hollow Co3O4 with rich oxygen vacancies for efficient oxidation of CO. Through a reduction-oxidation pyrolysis process, the metal-organic frameworks(MOFs) precursor(i.e., ZIF-67) is transformed into H-Co3O4@H-C, in which hollow Co3O4(H-Co3O4) nanoparticles(NPs) are embedded in hollow carbon(H-C) shell.The hollow Co3O4 NPs feature rich oxygen vacancies and finish a complete conversion of CO at 130°C, which is much lower than that of solid Co3O4(the temperature of full CO conversion T100=220°C). Besides, the hollow carbon shell could also reduce the diffusion resistance during the oxidation process. Benefiting from the unique hollow structures,H-Co3O4@H-C even shows comparable activity to noble metal catalysts under high weight hourly space velocities(WHSVs)up to 240,000 mL h^–1 gcat.^–1. Furthermore, the H-Co3O4@H-C catalyst also shows good durability with only a slight decline after the reaction has been operated for 24 h.展开更多
