N-doped carbon encapsulated nickel nanoparticles: rational fabrication and ultra-high performance for ethanol oxidation

CuO/Co(OH)2 Nanosheets: A Novel Kind of Electrocatalyst for Highly Efficient Electrochemical Oxidation of Methanol

“…Mehek et al synthesized Co-MOF-71 as well as its graphene-oxide-incorporated composites and studied their catalytic performance for MOR . There are reports also on transition-metal-based MOR catalysts with alloyed or core–shell structures. − Recently, our group synthesized SnO 2 -decorated mesoporous ZSM-5 zeolite and found its high and stable methanol oxidation performance . Although great efforts and significant achievements on the activity and stability of nonprecious-metal catalysts have been made, their electrocatalytic performance for MOR is still inferior to that of precious-metal-based electrocatalysts.…”

Supporting effects of a N-doped carbon film electrode on an electrodeposited Ni@Ni(OH)2 core–shell nanocatalyst in accelerating electrocatalytic oxidation of oligosaccharides

“…However, they did not elucidate N-doping effects and, importantly, none of these studies reported on the overpotential reduction of electrocatalytic reaction, as far as we know. [14][15][16] Here, we found that N-doping of carbon lm can much improve electrocatalytic performance parameters such as the turnover rates and oxidation potentials of sugars. Electrodeposition was adopted to prepare Ni@Ni(OH) 2 core-shell nanoparticles (Ni@Ni(OH) 2 -NP) with similar size distributions and morphologies on untreated (C) and N 2 plasma-treated carbon (N-C) lm electrodes.…”

Graphene-supported platinum/nickel phosphide electrocatalyst with improved activity and stability for methanol oxidation

“…N-Doped carbon-encapsulated Ni nanoparticles give an effective electrocatalytic activity and long-term stability for ethanol oxidation in the alkaline aqueous electrolyte. 19,20 NiOOH and NiO present the superior methanol electrocatalytic oxidation performance. 21,22 Besides these, Ni 2 P was found to be able to enhance the activity and stability of carbon blacksupported palladium and platinum nanoparticles toward alcohols, [23][24][25] which revealed that the incorporation of Ni 2 P gives rise to promote the electrooxidation of methanol and resistance to CO poisoning.…”
