Methyl is crucial in plasma-assisted hydrocarbon chemistry, making precise in situ imaging essential for understanding various plasma applications. Its importance in methane chemistry arises from its role as a primary byproduct during the initial phase of methane dehydrogenation. Detecting the CH radical is challenging due to its high reactivity and the prevalence of strongly pre-dissociative electronically excited states.

Zero-dimensional kinetic modeling of atmospheric pressure Ar-N-H nonthermal plasma was carried out to gain mechanistic insights into plasma-assisted catalytic synthesis of ammonia. Ar dilution is a common technique for tailoring plasma discharge properties and has been shown to enhance NH formation when added to N-H plasma. The kinetic model was developed for a coaxial dielectric barrier discharge quartz wool-packed bed reactor operating at near room temperature using a kHz-frequency plasma source.

Anionic modification engineering is a crucial approach to develop highly efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction. Herein, halogen elements (X = Cl, Br, and I)-modified Ru-based nanosheets (X-Ru/RuP) are designed by rapid and eco-friendly microwave-phosphide plasma approach within 60 s. Experimental and density functional theory calculations verify that the introduced halogen element, especially Br, can optimize the surface intermediates adsorption.

Ammonia is considered as one of the promising hydrogen carriers toward a sustainable world. Plasma assisted decomposition of NH could provide cost- and energy-effective, low-temperature, on-demand (partial) cracking of NH into H. Here, we presented a temperature-dependent plasma-chemical kinetic study to investigate the role of both electron-induced reactions and thermally induced reactions on the decomposition of NH.

In plasma-assisted combustion, excited species, ions, radicals, and other active intermediates can be produced by the excitation, ionization, and dissociation processes, which are conducive to steady combustion under the conditions of low temperature and pressure. Positive ions are reported to play an important role in electron impact ionization of fuels, but the associated kinetic processes are rarely discussed owing to the lack of experimental data and uncertain reaction pathways in the model. As they are the smallest geometric structures with primary, secondary, and tertiary hydrogen atoms, a study is presented to discuss the hydrogen abstraction potential energy surfaces of isopentane molecules and positive ions by hydrogen radicals at the DLPNO-CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ//B3LYP-D3(BJ)/6-311G(2df,2p) and DLPNO-CCSD(T)/aug-cc-pVTZ//M06-2x-D3/ma-def2-TZVP levels.
