Silica-Derived Nanostructured Electrode Materials for ORR, OER, HER, CO < sub > 2 < /sub > RR Electrocatalysis, and Energy Storage Applications: A Review
Chem Rec. 2024 Mar 26:e202300234. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300234. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSilica-derived nanostructured catalysts (SDNCs) are a class of materials synthesized using nanocasting and templating techniques, which involve the sacrificial removal of a silica template to generate highly porous nanostructured materials. The surface of these nanostructures is functionalized with a variety of electrocatalytically active metal and non-metal atoms. SDNCs have attracted considerable attention due to their unique physicochemical properties, tunable electronic configuration, and microstructure. These properties make th...

Micro and Nanoporous Membrane Platforms for Carbon Neutrality: Membrane Gas Separation Prospects
Chem Rec. 2024 Mar 19:e202300352. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300352. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecently, carbon neutrality has been promoted as a potentially practical solution to global CO2 emissions and increasing energy-consumption challenges. Many attempts have been made to remove CO2 from the environment to address climate change and rising sea levels owing to anthropogenic CO2 emissions. Herein, membrane technology is proposed as a suitable solution for carbon neutrality. This review aims to comprehensively evaluate the currently available scientific research on membranes for carbon capture, focusing on innovative micro...

The Phase Control of Transition Metallic Elements via Facile Chemical and Physical Syntheses
Chem Rec. 2024 Mar 19:e202300378. doi: 10.1002/tcr.202300378. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe crystal phases of metals are important factors to tune the properties of metals, and therefore received extensive attention. Traditionally, phase control is performed within limited numbers of elements by harsh conditions, such as face-centered cubic Fe by high temperature. This review summarizes most reports in metal phase control area, including elements of Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Ru, Pd, Rh, Os and Au. For every metallic element, the facile phase control methods are systematically introduced, such as epitaxial growth, ball milling, c...
