Acetylene semi-hydrogenation reaction is a critical transformation process for removing
trace levels of acetylene from industrial ethylene streams. Noble metal catalysts are …

Organic transformations are usually catalyzed by metal-based catalysts. In contrast, metal-
free catalysts have attracted considerable attention from the viewpoint of sustainability and …

Electrocatalytic acetylene semi-hydrogenation to ethylene powered by renewable electricity
represents a sustainable pathway, but the inadequate current density and single-pass yield …

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) alone is rarely reported to have exciting performance towards
heterogeneous hydrogenation reactions. In this work, we demonstrate via density functional …

Disrupting the spin degeneracy of the electrocatalyst and further manipulating the related
orbital electron arrangement are highly desirable for activating acetylene molecules. Herein …

Designing efficient and sustainable catalysts for semi-hydrogenation of acetylene is of
critical importance, but challenging. A novel and easily scaled-up strategy is described in …

Graphene aerogel (GA) was reduced at various temperatures to prepare a series of reduced
graphene aerogels (rGAs) with different surface characteristics. Detailed characterization …

The effect of further thermal annealing in a hydrogen atmosphere on the electrical properties
of hydrazine-reduced graphene oxide (RGO) was investigated. It was found that heat …

Graphene-based materials have been explored as hosts for Li metal anodes, but their high
interfacial activity and short diffusion distances frequently result in dendrite formation on the …
