Article Synopsis
- Understanding nanocatalyst surfaces at the atomic level is critical for improving catalytic reactions and creating better catalysts.
- A study on spherical Pd nanocatalysts revealed high ethylene selectivity of 88% during acetylene conversion, outperforming other shapes and previously reported Pd versions.
- The research combined local structure analysis and simulations to illustrate how surface strain affects ethylene adsorption, providing insights that could enhance the performance of chemical catalysts.
Metal-Organic Framework-Derived Ni-S/C Catalysts for Selective Alkyne Hydrogenation.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces
October 2023
A carbon matrix-supported Ni catalyst with surface/subsurface S species is prepared using a sacrificial metal-organic framework synthesis strategy. The resulting highly dispersed Ni-S/C catalyst contains surface discontinuous and electron-deficient Ni sites modified by p-block S elements. This catalyst proved to be extremely active and selective for alkyne hydrogenation.
