Zinc anode deterioration in aqueous electrolytes, and Zn dendrite growth is a major concern in the operation of aqueous rechargeable Zn metal batteries (AZMBs). To tackle this the replacement of aqueous electrolytes with a zinc hydrogel polymer electrolyte (ZHPE) is presented in this study. This method involves structural modifications of the ZHPE by phytic acid through an ultraviolet (UV) light-induced photopolymerization process. The high membrane flexibility, high ionic conductivity (0.08 S cm-1), improved zinc corrosion overpotential, and enhanced electrochemical stability value of ~2.0 V vs Zn|Zn2+ show the great potential of ZHPE as an ideal gel electrolyte for rechargeable zinc metal hydrogel batteries (ZMHBs).

We present a machine learning (ML) framework HEART (HydrogEn storAge propeRty predicTor) for identifying suitable families of metal alloys for hydrogen storage under ambient conditions. Our framework includes two ML models that predict the hydrogen storage capacity (HYST) and the enthalpy of hydride formation (THOR) of multi-component metal alloys. We demonstrate that a chemically diverse set of features effectively describes the hydrogen storage properties of the alloys. In HYST, we use absorption temperature as a feature which improved H2wt% prediction significantly. For out-of-the-bag samples, HYST predicted H2wt% with R2 score of 0.81 and mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.45 wt% whereas R2 score is 0.89 and MAE is 4.53 kJ/molH2 for THOR. These models are further employed to predict H2wt% and
H for
6.4 million multi-component metal alloys. We have identified 6480 compositions with superior storage properties (H2wt%
2.5 at room temperature and
H
60 kJ/molH2). We have also discussed in detail the interesting trends picked up by these models like temperature dependent variation in the rate of hydrogenation and alloying effect on H2wt% and
H in different families of alloys. Importantly certain elements like Al, Si, Sc, Cr, and Mn when mixed in small fractions with hydriding elements like Mg, Ti, V etc. systematically reduce
H without significantly compromising the storage capacity. Further upon increasing the number of elements in the alloy i.e from binary to ternary to quaternary, the number of compositions with lower enthalpies also increases. From the 6.4 million compositions, we have reported new alloy families having potential for hydrogen storage at room temperature. Finally, we demonstrate that HEART has the potential to scan vast chemical spaces by narrowing down potential materials for hydrogen storage.

Partial oxidation of methanol to value-added products presents an intriguing and challenging process. Among these products, formaldehyde is the simplest and one of the most vital aliphatic aldehydes, with extensive application across various domains. Industrially, silver and iron-molybdenum oxides are used as catalysts for converting methanol to formaldehyde at elevated temperatures (600? C and 250-400? C, respectively). However, in this computational and experimental study, we have demonstrated the efficacy of ZnO as a catalyst. Notably, in the presence of ZnO, methanol readily converts to formaldehyde even under ambient conditions. We employed periodic density functional theory (DFT) to explore the (1011) facet of ZnO to elucidate its interaction with methanol. Our comprehensive analysis identified the most active facet (1011) involved in the spontaneous conversion of methanol to formaldehyde. Subsequently, experimental validation supported our theoretical findings, demonstrating the conversion of methanol to formaldehyde with 100% selectivity at room temperature and atmospheric pressure in the presence of ZnO. This study exemplifies the pivotal role of theory in catalyst design.

In this work, we introduce the HyStor database, consisting of 1280 metal alloys along with their hydrogen storage capacities (H2wt%) as a function of absorption temperature. Given the lack of updates in the existing open-access HydPark database since 2002, we sourced compositions from recent research articles and various patent documents, resulting in a total of 468 compositions. The addition is reflected in the data across all existing classes of alloy compositions, and low entropy alloys (LEA), medium entropy alloys (MEA), and high entropy alloys (HEA) have been included. This has broadened the scope of the database to encompass the latest materials of interest for hydrogen storage. HyStor contains a representation of 54 elements, with a temperature range of 200-800K and an H2wt% range of 0.1-7.19. To ensure data quality, we conducted thorough checks for duplicate entries, erroneous data, and conflicting compositions within the database. Furthermore, we conducted multiple tests to identify potential outlier compositions by benchmarking the database against the pre-trained HYST model on HydPark data. After eliminating these potential outliers, we successfully improved the error metrics of the HYST model, reducing the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) from 0.32 to 0.28 and increasing the R2 score from 0.78 to 0.82. We also tested individual classes and observed that the performance of the HYST model has increased for the majority of the classes.

We report a simple inorganic route for synthesizing a Pd/WO3 3D hollow sphere nanocatalyst, where Pd nanoparticles are encapsulated and well distributed on porous tungsten oxide nanospheres. The synthesis protocol has advantages, as it requires no surfactant or stabilizing agent, Pd loading is easily tuned, and the as-synthesized nanomaterials can be directly used as catalysts for the CO oxidation reaction. The synthesized nanocatalyst exhibited 100% CO to CO2 conversion efficiency at 260 °C. In addition, the nanocatalyst demonstrated remarkable SO2 (3 ppm) tolerance during the CO oxidation reaction for prolonged SO2 sulfation of 1–21 h at 260–400 °C. This represents the longest SO2 exposure time reported to date based on a single metal Pd/support-based nanocatalyst. No decrement in CO conversion efficiency was observed even after SO2 (3 ppm) treatment for 21 h for the first time based on a single metal Pd-based nanocatalyst. Moreover, the synthesized nanocatalyst shows H2S (4 ppm), even in situ H2S tolerance during the CO oxidation reaction at 260 °C for 1–3 h and exhibited less sensitivity to prolonged and stringent sulfur exposure, with the highest H2S concentration and maximum 100% CO to CO2 conversion efficiency obtained after H2S treatment for the first time based on a Pd-based nanocatalyst to the best of our knowledge. The composition and structure of the R-Pd/WO3 nanocatalyst were not much influenced, even after the prolonged SO2 and H2S exposure during the CO oxidation reaction, as verified from spent catalyst analysis. Finally, our DFT-based model provides insights into understanding the observed sulfur resistance on Pd/WO3 by analyzing the underlying electronic structure. Therefore, our strategic synthesis methodology will open up many opportunities to select Pd/metal oxide-based nanomaterials for designing highly efficient, stable, and SO2/H2S-resistant nanocomposite catalyst.

For the first time, we have synthesized lead (Pb)-free manganese
(Mn)- and copper (Cu)-based hybrid organic?inorganic perovskite (HOIP) compounds, compound 1, (TEA)2MnBr4, compound 2, (TBA)2MnBr4, compound 3, (TEA)2CuBr4, and compound 4, (TBA)CuBr2 (where TEA is tetraethylammonium and TBA is tetrabutylammonium), under ambient conditions via mechanochemical synthesis methodology using a Kakuhunter-made planetary mixer. The compounds are characterized as 2D except for (TBA)CuBr2, which has crystallized in the 0D lattice. The synthesized compounds are phase pure and show a stable solid-state emission at room temperature. The Mn-based perovskite compound 1 showed excellent environmental photostability for over a month and reasonable stability under a relative humidity of 70-80%. The nanoparticle (NP) dispersions of compounds 1 and 2 were used further for fluorescence titration studies using various
heavy metal cations, including transition metals and lanthanides (e.g., Y3+, Nb3+, Co2+, Ni2+, Ag+, Zn2+, Cd2+, Pb2+, Gd3+, and Dy3+), where they showed good fluorescence switching by the Pb2+ ion. Compound 1 demonstrated excellent fluorescence switching
performance with Pb2+ titration with a Pb2+ detection limit of 2.43 × 10-8 M and hence can be used to fabricate a Pb2+ calorimetric
sensor. A preliminary visual thin film-based sensor using NPs of compound 1 was fabricated to test the change in emission from blue
to green in correlation with the results obtained in the NP solution during Pb2+ ion sensing. A fascinating in situ ion-exchange-based mechanism for the sensitivity of NPs of compound 1 is confirmed. This study reveals the ability of Pb-free Mn-based HOIPs to detect an oxidizing metal cation, Pb2+, efficiently and quantitatively

IF: 5.3 Metal ferrite (MFO) M2+Fe2O4 (M2+ = Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn)
nanocrystals (NCs) with a controlled size of ~4 nm were synthesized using stearic acid as the capping agent via a facile solvothermal method. The as-synthesized MnFe2O4 (MnFO), CoFe2O4 (CoFO), NiFe2O4 (NiFO), and ZnFe2O4 (ZnFO) NCs were characterized by XRD, FT-IR, Raman, XPS, TGA, TEM, and HRTEM analyses. The electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is significant for future renewable
energy to produce pure hydrogen (H2) fuels through H2O splitting. However, because of the complex proton-coupled multielectron transfer process, it is kinetically quite challenging. Fe-containing transition metal-based electrocatalysts are well studied since it has been observed that Fe has a significant role in enhancing OER activity. It is wellknown that the size and shape of the Fe/ferrite-based nanoelectrocatalyst play a vital role
in electrocatalysis reactions. However, it is also critical to understand the effect of other earth-abundant and cost-effective transition metal ions (e.g., Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn) combined with Fe/ferrite NC-based OER electrocatalytic reactions while keeping the size of NCs constant and compare their electrocatalytic properties toward the development of advanced nanoelectrocatalysts, which is rarely studied to the best of the authors knowledge. Therefore, herein, the electrocatalytic properties for OER were examined by using the as-synthesized MnFO, CoFO, NiFO, and ZnFO NCs to understand the effect of metal ions (Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn) on the Fe-based nanoelectrocatalysts by keeping the size of the nanoelectrocatalysts constant at ~4 nm. Additionally, the influence of different substrates, e.g., carbon paper (CP) and nickel foam (NF), on the electrocatalytic activity of MFO (MnFO, CoFO, NiFO, and ZnFO) NCs was also compared. Interestingly, as an OER nanoelectrocatalyst, the CoFO NCs on the CP substrate show better electrochemical OER activity than other MFO NCs, with a Tafel slope value of 49.4 mV dec-1, an ECSA of 112 cm2, and a long-term stability of 24 h, which is comparatively higher than the other as-synthesized MFO NCs. On the other hand, MnFO NCs on the NF substrate show better electrochemical OER activity than the other as-synthesized MFO NCs. Therefore, this work highlights the effect of the substrate and the influence of transition metals, e.g., Mn, Co, Ni, and Zn, on size-controlled Fe-based nanoelectrocatalysts toward developing advanced OER electrocatalysts.

Kavita Thakkar And Kavita Joshi, Exploring the Catalytic Potential of Mg-Cu Alloys for Enhanced Activity toward CO$_2$ Hydrogenation, Molecular Catalysis., 556, 113839 (2024), DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mcat.2024.113839.
CO$_2$, a well-known greenhouse gas, is a potential raw material that can produce various chemicals. Dissociation of CO$_2$ to CO or hydrogenation to formate (HCOO$^*$) or carboxyl (COOH$^*$) intermediate is crucial in determining the reaction pathway for CO$_2$ conversion. In this work, we demonstrate that alloys of Mg-Cu exhibit greater activity toward activation and hydrogenation of CO$_2$ than transition metal alloys reported so far. Two different compositions of Mg-Cu, namely Mg$_2$Cu and MgCu$_2$, have been studied using periodic Density Functional Theory (DFT). Our investigations reveal that CO$_2$ chemisorbs on both intermetallic alloys. Coadsorption of CO$_2$ with H$_2$O leads to the spontaneous formation of COOH$^*$ over Mg$_2$Cu(224), whereas a negligible barrier (0.04 eV) is observed for MgCu$_2$(311). HCOO$^*$ formation has a barrier of 0.34 eV and 0.42 eV on Mg$_2$Cu(224) and MgCu$_2$(311), respectively. Dissociation of CO$_2$ to CO is kinetically unfavourable on both compositions of Mg-Cu. We provide a rationale for the observed activity by analyzing the electronic structure. Notably, the spontaneous hydrogenation of CO$_2$ makes earth-abundant metals suitable candidates for alloying that await experimental verification.

Methane is a major constituent of natural gas and is widely used in hydrogen production. However, its high symmetry poses a challenge, as breaking the strong C-H bond requires substantial energy input. Hence, there is a pressing need to develop efficient catalysts for methane conversion. By synergizing theory and experimentation, the search for a better catalyst can be accelerated, potentially boosting methane conversion processes. In the present work, theoretical findings prompted the experiments, which revealed the spontaneous dissociation of CH4 on selected facets of ?-Ga2O3. Additionally, the activation barrier for ethane formation was merely 0.1 eV. NTP-assisted conversion of methane in the presence of ?-Ga2O3 confirmed these findings. The formation rate of hydrogen and ethane rises to 366 µmolg?1h?1 and 86.62 µmolg?1h?1, respectively, in the presence of ?-Ga2O3, in contrast to 281.4 µmolg?1h?1 and 66 µmolg?1h?1 without catalysts. For the CH4-H2O reaction in the presence of ?-Ga2O3, there is an increase of 74.42% in the CO formation rate compared to the reaction without the catalyst. An electronic structure analysis revealed that electrophilic oxygen species on the ?-Ga2O3 (-202) surface play a vital role in the decomposition of methane, facilitating C-H bond cleavage.

Our new paper published in ACS Applied Engineering Materials. In this study, we created an electrocatalyst for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction using PtNi/SiO2 alloy as a feasible carbon-free catalyst for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). One significant problem reducing the fuel cells' lifespan is carbon corrosion. The present catalyst turns out to be electrochemically more active as a potential carbon-free substitute for PEMFC applications because of the electronic level modulations brought about by lattice compression.

Extensive research has contributed to a better understanding of the commercially important epoxidation reaction. Selectivity, a crucial aspect of this reaction, has received significant attention in both experimental and theoretical investigations. However, a consensus regarding the role of electrophilic oxygen in epoxidation is yet to be reached. The present study is a theoretical examination of the prerequisites necessary for direct epoxidation to occur on the Ag(100) surface, at varied monolayer concentrations. Additionally, the study investigates the characteristics of various oxygen species interacting with ethylene to promote the direct epoxidation pathway. Based on the effective charges and projected density of states (pDOS) analysis, three oxygen variants were identified on the Ag(100) surface: atomic oxygen, dissociatively adsorbed molecular oxygen, and O
. The investigation reveals that all oxygen species, despite their physical and electronic differences, are electrophilic and undergo direct epoxidation. This work provides insights into the complex nature of epoxidation reaction and discusses electronic factors influencing the selective oxidation route on different Agsingle bondO complexes.

CO2, a byproduct from various industrial reactions, must not be released into the atmosphere and should be managed through capture, conversion, and utilization. The first step in converting CO2 into valuable products is to break the C–O bond. This work focuses on designing Single Atom Catalysts (SACs) by doping Cu(211) surface with 13 different s, p, and d block elements with an aim to minimize the activation barrier for C–O bond cleavage. Our work demonstrates that SACs of Mg/Al/Pt@Cu(211) favour CO2 chemisorption compared to Cu(211) where CO2 physisorbs. The barrier for CO2 dissociation is lowest for Mg@Cu(211) and it increases in the order Mg@Cu(211), Al@Cu(211), Pt@Cu(211),
Zn@Cu(211) Ga@Cu(211) Cu@Cu(211) Pd@Cu(211). These findings suggest that doping Cu(211) with earth-abundant metals like Mg can potentially be a viable catalyst for CO2 conversion, providing a promising solution to reduce carbon footprint and mitigate climate change.

We report a simple inorganic route for synthesizing a Pd/WO3 3D hollow sphere nanocatalyst, where Pd nanoparticles are encapsulated and well distributed on porous tungsten oxide nanospheres. The synthesis protocol has advantages, as it requires no surfactant or stabilizing agent, Pd loading is easily tuned, and the as-synthesized nanomaterials can be directly used as catalysts for the CO oxidation reaction. The synthesized nanocatalyst exhibited 100% CO to CO2 conversion efficiency at 260 °C. In addition, the nanocatalyst demonstrated remarkable SO2 (3 ppm) tolerance during the CO oxidation reaction for prolonged SO2 sulfation of 1–21 h at 260–400 °C. This represents the longest SO2 exposure time reported to date based on a single metal Pd/support-based nanocatalyst. No decrement in CO conversion efficiency was observed even after SO2 (3 ppm) treatment for 21 h for the first time based on a single metal Pd-based nanocatalyst. Moreover, the synthesized nanocatalyst shows H2S (4 ppm), even in situ H2S tolerance during the CO oxidation reaction at 260 °C for 1–3 h and exhibited less sensitivity to prolonged and stringent sulfur exposure, with the highest H2S concentration and maximum 100% CO to CO2 conversion efficiency obtained after H2S treatment for the first time based on a Pd-based nanocatalyst to the best of our knowledge. The composition and structure of the R-Pd/WO3 nanocatalyst were not much influenced, even after the prolonged SO2 and H2S exposure during the CO oxidation reaction, as verified from spent catalyst analysis. Finally, our DFT-based model provides insights into understanding the observed sulfur resistance on Pd/WO3 by analyzing the underlying electronic structure. Therefore, our strategic synthesis methodology will open up many opportunities to select Pd/metal oxide-based nanomaterials for designing highly efficient, stable, and SO2/H2S-resistant nanocomposite catalyst.

The rational design of noble metal-free electrocatalysts holds great promise for cost-effective green hydrogen generation through water electrolysis. In this context, here, we demonstrate the development of a superhydrophilic bifunctional electrocatalyst, that facilitates both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline conditions. This has been achieved through the in-situ growth of hierarchical NiMoO4 @CoMoO4.xH2O nanostructure on nickel foam (NF) via. a two-step hydrothermal synthesis method. NiMoO4@CoMoO4.xH2O/NF facilitates OER and HER at the overpotentials of 180 and 220 mV, respectively, at the current density of 10 mA cm-2 .

Steam methane reforming reaction was carried out in a dielectric barrier plasma reactor. A systematic study is conducted to understand the influence of input power, flow rate, and water for the conversion, yield, and selectivity of the reaction over strategically designed catalysts. In particular, the production rate and selectivity of the products (H2, CO and C2 hydrocarbons) are monitored. CeO2 was used as packing material, mixed with oxides of manganese or copper and their combination. The optimum Cu/CeO2 catalyst illustrated the production rate of 248.7 ?molg?1h?1 and 11.25 ?molg?1h?1 for H2, and CO, respectively at specific energy input of 19.8 JL-1. DFT calculations exhibit apparent change in electronic structure of the CeO2 after inclusion of oxides of manganese and copper that enhance interaction with methane. Based on these findings, a plausible mechanism is elucidated which can help to design catalyst for other applications in non-thermal plasma atmosphere.

The generation of low-energy 3D structures of metal clusters depends on the efficiency of the
search algorithm and the accuracy of inter-atomic interaction description. In this work, we
formulate the search algorithm as a reinforcement learning (RL) problem. Concisely, we propose a
novel actor-critic architecture that generates low-lying isomers of metal clusters at a fraction of
computational cost than conventional methods. Our RL-based search algorithm uses a previously
developed DART model as a reward function to describe the inter-atomic interactions to validate
predicted structures. Using the DART model as a reward function incentivizes the RL model to
generate low-energy structures and helps generate valid structures. We demonstrate the advantages
of our approach over conventional methods for scanning local minima on potential energy surface.
Our approach not only generates isomer of gallium clusters at a minimal computational cost but
also predicts isomer families that were not discovered through previous density-functional theory
(DFT)-based approaches.

We have investigated various Zn-based catalysts for their interaction with methanol (MeOH). MeOH is one
of the most critical molecules being studied extensively, and Zn-based catalysts are widely used in many
industrially relevant reactions involving MeOH. We note that the same element (Zn and O, in the present
study) exhibits different catalytic activity in different environments. The changing environment is captured in
the underlying electronic structure of the catalysts. In the present work, we compared the electronic structure
of Zn-based systems, i.e., ZnAl2O4 and ZnO along with oxygen preadsorbed Zn (O-Zn) and metallic Zn. We
demonstrate the one-to-one correlation between the pDOS of the bare facet and the outcome of that facet’s
interaction (i.e. either adsorption or dissociation of MeOH) with MeOH. These findings would pave the way
towards the in-silico design of catalysts.

IF: 6.14; In this study, we report a simple inorganic route for the synthesis of Ru/W18O49 self-assembled coral-like nanostructures, with the following advantages: It is one step and requires no surfactant or stabilizing agent; Ru loading is easily tuned, and the as-synthesized nanomaterials can be used as a catalyst without any further processing. The preliminary investigations of the catalytic performance of these as-synthesized Ru/W18O49 nanomaterials appear quite promising for converting glucose to glycols. The total glycol selectivity of 82.6% with 100% conversion of glucose was obtained over 0.03 wt % Ru loading on tungsten nanostructures, which turns out to be the lowest Ru loading% on support reported to date to achieve the highest total glycol selectivity among the previously reported catalyst based on Ru-nano/composite materials. Additionally, preliminary results show that the concentration of Ru on W18O49 significantly affects the selectivity of the glycol production. Thus, our methodology will open up a wide range of opportunities regarding the choice of metals, stoichiometric/nonstoichiometric WOx (x=1–3) as support, and the viability of further catalytic manipulations. A probable catalytic mechanism for this catalytic process is also proposed.
