Hydrogen (H 2) production is a latent feasibility of renewable clean energy. The industrial H
2 production is obtained from reforming of natural gas, which consumes a large amount of …

Layered double hydroxides (LDHs) and their derivatives are a family of promising
photocatalysts that have been widely used in photodegradation of organic pollutants. We …

Supports can widely affect or even dominate the catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability of
metal nanoparticles through various metal-support interactions (MSIs). However, underlying …

Different from isolated metal atoms and large metal nanoparticles (NPs), supported metal
clusters (SMCs) possess distinct geometric and electronic structures and thus exhibit …

Highly efficient electrochemical nitrate reduction could become a key process for
sustainable ammonia production overcoming many limitations of the Haber–Bosch process …

Platinum (Pt)-based catalysts have been unanimously considered the most efficient catalysts
for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) …

Dry reforming of methane (DRM) has been investigated for more than a century; the
paramount stumbling block in its industrial application is the inevitable sintering of catalysts …

Encapsulation of metal nanocatalysts by support-derived materials is well known as a
classical strong metal–support interaction (SMSI) effect that occurs almost exclusively with …

Effective removal of pollutants that affect human health and ecosystem stability is a crucial
challenge. Here, the structural confinement engineering strategy realizes the effective …

Supported metal nanoparticles are widely used as catalysts in the industrial production of
chemicals, but still suffer from deactivation because of metal leaching and sintering at high …
