Article Abstract

This study explores the methanol-to-olefins (MTO) performance of three SAPO-34 catalysts: SP (conventional), SPG1 (green, synthesized with okra mucilage as a hard template), and SPG (green, synthesized using a dual-template method with brewed coffee and okra mucilage). The dual-template strategy in SPG promotes the formation of a hierarchical micro-mesoporous structure, resulting in enhanced catalytic behavior. Structural and physicochemical characterizations (XRD, FT-IR, FESEM, EDS, N adsorption-desorption, and NH-TPD) confirm that SPG possesses smaller crystallites, higher mesoporosity, and moderated acidity compared to SP and SPG1. These features contribute to superior total olefin selectivity (89.8% at 240 min), higher ethylene selectivity (53.8%), lower propylene-to-ethylene (P/E) ratio, and improved catalyst stability. Furthermore, SPG exhibits reduced coke formation and better mass transport properties due to its tailored porosity. The utilization of renewable bio-templates not only enhances performance but also aligns with sustainable catalyst design. Overall, the SPG catalyst demonstrates significant potential for efficient and eco-friendly MTO processes.

A series of Cu-based single-atom catalysts (SACs) with asymmetric coordination were designed to accelerate lithium-sulfur (Li-S) chemistry. The electronegativity contrast from the dopant induces a localized electronic asymmetry that amplifies Jahn-Teller distortion at the Cu center. This distortion profoundly modulates the Cu 3d electronic structure and its interaction with Li-S intermediates.

A theoretical study on doping Pd-like superatoms into defective graphene quantum dots: an efficient strategy to design single superatom catalysts for the Suzuki reaction.

The rational design of non-precious metal catalysts as a replacement for Pd is of great importance for catalyzing various important chemical reactions. To realize this purpose, the palladium-like superatom NbN was doped into a defective graphene quantum dot (GQD) model with a double-vacancy site to design a novel single superatom catalyst, namely, NbN@GQD, based on density functional theory (DFT), and its catalytic activity for the Suzuki reaction was theoretically investigated. Our results reveal that this designed catalyst exhibits satisfactory activity with a small rate-limiting energy barrier of 25.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by persistent hyperglycemia with multiple clinical manifestations and complications, such as cardiovascular disease, kidney dysfunction, retinal impairment, and peripheral neuropathy. Continuous and minimally invasive glucose monitoring is essential for effective DM management. Microneedles (MNs)-based sensing platforms offer a promising solution; however, conventional polymeric MNs suffer from limited electrochemical sensitivity due to their insufficient electroactive surface area and inefficient loading of catalytic and enzymatic components.
