A modified confined catalyst with Pt nanoparticles on the interior and FeO on the exterior surface of TiO nanotubes (Pt-in/FeO-TNTs) was prepared and investigated for catalyzing the oxidation of ethylene. Compared with the Pt-in/TNTs without FeO modification, the Pt-in/FeO-TNTs exhibited a significantly enhanced activity, and the complete conversion temperature of ethylene decreased from 170 to 95 °C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis indicated that the Pt nanoparticles were stabilized at higher oxidation states in the Pt-in/FeO-TNT catalyst. It was proposed that the modification of FeO on the outer surface can tune the electronic state of the encapsulated Pt particles and accelerate the electrons transferred from Pt to Fe species via TiO nanotubes, thus improving the catalytic oxidation performance of the confined catalyst.

Capacitive deionization (CDI) is considered a promising technology for desalination, and the preparation of electrode materials with high specific surface area, good hydrophilicity, and porous structure can facilitate the improvement of CDI performance. However, existing research lacks a porous, environmentally friendly biochar electrode and in-depth stability studies. Herein, porous carbon (RSK-x) was fabricated using rice straw as the raw material and KFeO as the activator and modifier.

Voltage control of exchange bias (EB) is an important technological goal for low-power spintronic sensor and memory devices. The magneto-ionic (MI) approach for voltage-controlled EB is a promising strategy to achieve this goal, utilizing electrochemical reactions at low operational voltages. In typical MI devices, however, the sensitive EB layers are directly targeted by the electrochemical reactions, which often impairs reversibility.

Biochar has been widely employed in heavy metal wastewater treatment due to its well-developed porosity. However, current studies lack efficient and environmentally friendly modification methods, especially for systems involving coexisting heavy metals. In this study, modified biochar was prepared from chicken manure via KFeO modification, aiming to remove Cd(II)-Pb(II) compound polluted wastewater efficiently.

The partial CH oxidation by generation of HO from O and H offers a promising strategy to synthesize CHOH from affordable and sustainable substances. However, it remains a grand challenge to efficiently utilize HO for the exclusive production of methanol. Herein, we report a tandem catalyst by encapsulating Pd nanoparticles in an amino-functionalized Fe-based metal-organic framework, delivering a CHOH productivity of 14.

The effect of strontium substitution on the crystal tructure, as well as the magnetic, and electrical properties of lanthanum ferrite (LaFeO) synthesized by high-energy ball milling, is studied, with an emphasis on magnetodielectric coupling. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the successful synthesis of orthorhombic LaSrFeO for doping levels up to 0.2 mol.
