Article Synopsis
  • - Vanadium carbide (VC) is a promising catalyst for hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) due to its platinum-like properties and availability, but its effectiveness is hindered by poor interactions with reaction intermediates.
  • - Researchers created a new high-efficiency HER catalyst called Al-VC@C/NF by doping VC with aluminum and using a controlled carbon flow process, achieving impressive overpotentials of 58 mV and 97 mV in different solutions.
  • - The study reveals that aluminum doping enhances electron distribution on the VC surface, lowering energy barriers in the HER, and suggests a novel approach for improving vanadium-based carbons as effective catalysts through non-transition metal doping.

Designing highly active, low-cost, and bifunctional oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts is urgent for the development of metal-air batteries. Herein, by density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we systematically reported a series of dual-metal atom adsorbed novel two-dimensional (2D) MBenes as efficient bifunctional catalysts for the OER/ORR (namely 2TM/TMTM-MoBO, TM = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni). Our theoretical results show that 2Ni-MoBO, FeCo-MoBO and CoNi-MoBO exhibit outstanding OER/ORR catalytic activity with overpotentials of 0.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the impacts of home quarantine on pregnancy outcomes of women with intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy (ICP) during the COVID-19 outbreak and whether the rational use of drugs will change these impacts.

Methods: This multi-center study was conducted to compare the pregnancy outcomes in women with ICP between the home quarantine group and the non-home quarantine group in southwest China. Propensity score matching was performed to confirm the pregnancy outcomes of the medication group and the non-medication group in women with ICP during the epidemic period.

Designing amorphous/crystalline heterophase catalysts is still in the initial stage, and the study of amorphous/crystalline heterophase and carbon-free catalysts has not yet been realized. Herein, we report a unique amorphous/crystalline heterophase catalyst consisting of NiFe alloy nanoparticles (NPs) supported on TiO (NiFe/TiO) for the first time, which is achieved by a heterophase supporting strategy of dual heat treatment. Surprisingly, the amorphous/crystalline heterophase is flexibly composed of amorphous and crystalline phases of alloy NPs and TiO.
