Identify the impact of pyrolysis temperature on preparation of carbon nanotubes by catalytic reforming polypropylene.

Catalytic reforming offers a promising method for converting waste plastics into valuable products such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The composition of the carbon source plays a crucial role in determining the growth of CNTs because pyrolysis temperature exerts a significant influence on volatilisation. This study investigated the impact of pyrolysis temperature on the formation of CNTs in the presence of an Fe/AlO catalyst.

CREB3 suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma progression by depressing AKT signaling through competitively binding with insulin receptor and transcriptionally activating RNA-binding motif protein 38.

Simultaneous production of high-valued carbon nanotubes and hydrogen from catalytic pyrolysis of waste plastics: The role of cellulose impurity.

Upcycling waste plastics into valuable carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and hydrogen via catalytic pyrolysis is a sustainable strategy to mitigate white pollution. However, real-world plastics are complex and generally contain organic impurities, such as cellulose, which have a non-negligible impact on the catalytic pyrolysis process and product distribution. In this study, cellulose was chosen as a model compound to distinguish the effects of oxygen-containing components on the CNTs and hydrogen production during the catalytic pyrolysis of waste polypropylene.

One-pot self-assembled bimetallic sulfide particle cluster-supported three-dimensional graphene aerogel as an efficient electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction.

The preparation of an electrocatalyst for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) with high catalytic activity, good long-term durability and rapid reaction kinetics through interface engineering is of great significance.
