A hollow urchin-like metal–organic framework with Ni–O-cluster SBUs as a promising electrode for an alkaline battery–supercapacitor device

Abstract

Hollow urchin-like Ni-based MOF material (named as NiPSC) with long tentacles has been synthesized and directly utilized as an active electrode material in supercapacitors. In virtue of multi-centered Ni-oxo SBU...

Constructing Ni–Pt Bimetallic Catalysts for Catalytic Hydrogenation and Rearrangement of Furfural into Cyclopentanone with Insight in H/D Exchange by D2O Labeling

“…Additionally, d-spacing ( Figure 5 c,k) with the diffraction patterns ( Figure 5 d,l) of Ni-containing catalysts was obtained via HR-TEM, which indicates the (111) lattice plane of metallic Ni particles with a spacing of 0.201–0.210 nm. 32 , 33 Thus, the formation of Ni 0 after reduction by H 2 is confirmed. The d-spacing ( Figure 5 g) of Pt/Al 2 O 3 with the diffraction pattern ( Figure 5 h) indicates the (111) lattice plane of metallic Pt with a spacing of 0.233–0.237 nm, 34 − 36 indicating the formation of Pt 0 after H 2 reduction.…”
