Article Abstract
Co-based spinel oxides, which are of mixing valences with the presence of both Co and Co at different atom locations, are considered as promising catalysts for the electrochemical oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Identifying the role of each atom site in the electroxidation of HMF is critical to design the advanced electrocatalysts. In this work, we found that Co in Co O is capable of chemical adsorption for acidic organic molecules, and Co play a decisive role in HMF oxidation. Thereafter, the Cu was introduced in spinel oxides to enhance the exposure degree of Co and to boost acidic adsorption and thus to enhance the electrocatalytic activity for HMF electrooxidation significantly.

Facing the massive energy consumption of over 200 TWh y of chlor-alkali industry, developing high-activity and durable non-precious CER (chlorine evolution reaction) catalysts is urgently needed to address the high overpotentials and suppress the dissolution high-valance metal species. Herein, a carbon quantum dots functionalized trimetallic Fe/Co/Ni spinel oxide nanotube architecture (FCNO@CQDs) is constructed, featuring t-to-π* π-backbonding for dramatically enhanced CER activity and stability. The reverse electron flow from Co d-obritals to the vacant CQDs' π* orbitals can upshift the d-band center for enhanced intermediate adsorption, while stabilizing high-valent Co centers via increased bond order.

Implant-related infections (IRIs) pose a major challenge in orthopedic applications due to the persistence of biofilms, which are highly resistant to conventional antibiotics. This study introduces oxygen vacancy-engineered Zn-Fe spinel nanoparticles as microwave-responsive antibacterial agents. The oxygen vacancies in the spinel structure enhance reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation under microwave irradiation, providing a dual-mode antibacterial mechanism of thermal and oxidative stress.

Constructing robust electrocatalysts and shedding light on the processes of surface reconstruction is crucial for sustained hydrogen production and a deeper understanding of catalytic behavior. Here, a novel ZIF-67-derived lanthanum- and phosphorus-co-doped CoO catalyst (La, P-CoO) has been reported. X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) confirms that the La and P co-doping reduces the coordination number (CN), improves oxygen vacancies (O), and leads to lattice distortion.

High-temperature oxidation reactions catalyzed by earth-abundant transition metal oxides are vital for numerous industrial and environmental processes. However, their performance is often limited by the rapid desorption of active oxygen species at high temperatures. Here, we describe a straightforward approach to constructing a CuMn spinel/MnO composite oxide catalyst that addresses this limitation and demonstrate that lattice oxygen can spontaneously migrate to form interface-stabilized superoxo species under high-temperature reaction conditions.

Accurate evaluation of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts, especially transition metal oxides, requires careful control of testing parameters. Here, we report a potential-window-dependent ORR activity for spinel manganese ferrite (MnFeO). The ORR activity exhibits a volcano-shaped dependence on the lower potential limit during cathodic scans.
