Cascade anchoring strategy for general mass production of high-loading single-atomic metal-nitrogen catalysts

Journal Article Zhao, Lu ; Zhang, Yun ; Huang, Lin-Bo ; ... - Nature Communications

Although single-atomically dispersed metal-Nx on carbon support (M-NC) has great potential in heterogeneous catalysis, the scalable synthesis of such single-atom catalysts (SACs) with high-loading metal-N _x is greatly challenging since the loading and single-atomic dispersion have to be balanced at high temperature for forming metal-N _x. Herein, we develop a general cascade anchoring strategy for the mass production of a series of M-NC SACs with a metal loading up to 12.1 wt%. Systematic investigation reveals that the chelation of metal ions, physical isolation of chelate complex upon high loading, and the binding with N-species at elevated temperature are essential tomore »« less

High temperature shockwave stabilized single atoms

Journal Article Yao, Yonggang ; Huang, Zhennan ; Xie, Pengfei ; ... - Nature Nanotechnology

The stability of single-atom catalysts is critical for their practical applications. Although a high temperature can promote the bond formation between metal atoms and the substrate with an enhanced stability, it often causes atom agglomeration and is incompatible with many temperature-sensitive substrates. Here, we report using controllable high-temperature shockwaves to synthesize and stabilize single atoms at very high temperatures (1,500-2,000 K), achieved by a periodic on-off heating that features a short on state (55 ms) and a ten-times longer off state. The high temperature provides the activation energy for atom dispersion by forming thermodynamically favourable metal-defect bonds and the off-statemore »« less

Defect Engineering of Chalcogen-Tailored Oxygen Electrocatalysts for Rechargeable Quasi-Solid-State Zinc-Air Batteries

Journal Article Fu, Jing ; Hassan, Fathy M. ; Zhong, Cheng ; ... - Advanced Materials

A critical bottleneck limiting the performance of rechargeable zinc-air batteries lies in the inefficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction and evolution reactions at the air electrodes. Hybridizing transition-metal oxides with functional graphene materials has shown great advantages due to their catalytic synergism. However, both the mediocre catalytic activity of metal oxides and the restricted 2D mass/charge transfer of graphene render these hybrid catalysts inefficient. Here, an effective strategy combining anion substitution, defect engineering, and the dopant effect to address the above two critical issues is shown. This strategy is demonstrated on a hybrid catalyst consisting of sulfur-deficient cobalt oxysulfidemore »« less

Key Single-Atom Electrocatalysis in Metal-Organic Framework (MOF)-Derived Bifunctional Catalysts

Journal Article Zhao, Wanpeng ; Wan, Gang ; Peng, Chunlei ; ... - ChemSusChem

Metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived materials have attracted increasing interest and show promising catalytic performances in many fields. Intensive efforts have been focused on the structure design and metal-site integration in MOF-derived catalysts. However, the key catalytic processes related with the metal sites in MOF-derived catalysts that dominate the electrocatalytic performance still remain obscure. Herein, we show a neglected but critical issue in the pyrolytic synthesis of MOF-derived catalysts: the coupled evolution of dual sites, that is, metallic sites and single-atom metal sites. The identification of active sites of single-atom sites from the visible particles has been elucidated through the combined X-raymore »« less

Engineering Single-Atom Cobalt Catalysts toward Improved Electrocatalysis

Journal Article Wan, Gang ; Yu, Pengfei ; Chen, Hangrong ; ... - Small

In this paper, the development of cost-effective catalysts to replace noble metal is attracting increasing interests in many fields of catalysis and energy, and intensive efforts are focused on the integration of transition-metal sites in carbon as noble-metal-free candidates. Recently, the discovery of single-atom dispersed catalyst (SAC) provides a new frontier in heterogeneous catalysis. However, the electrocatalytic application of SAC is still subject to several theoretical and experimental limitations. Further advances depend on a better design of SAC through optimizing its interaction with adsorbates during catalysis. Here, distinctive from previous studies, favorable 3d electronic occupation and enhanced metal-adsorbates interactions inmore »« less
