For the first time, this work presents surfactant-free monometallic and bimetallic polyhedral metal nanocrystals (MNCs) immobilized to a metal-organic framework (MIL-101) by CO-directed reduction of metal precursors at the solid-gas interface. With this novel method, Pt cubes and Pd tetrahedra were formed by CO preferential bindings on their (100) and (111) facets, respectively. PtPd bimetallic nanocrystals showed metal segregation, leading to Pd-rich core and Pt-rich shell. Core-shell Pt@Pd nanocrystals were immobilized to MIL-101 by seed-mediated two-step reduction, representing the first example of core-shell MNCs formed using only gas-phase reducing agents. These MOF-supported MNCs exhibited high catalytic activities for CO oxidation.

Article Synopsis
- Strontium titanium (SrTiO) shows potential as a photocatalyst, but it needs to improve the separation and utilization of photocarriers using specific crystal facets and fewer defects.
- Researchers synthesized Al-doped SrTiO with enhanced morphology using NaCl and SrCl, which resulted in polyhedral shapes and certain crystal facets highly active for photocatalysis.
- The Al-doped SrTiO created with SrCl achieved a hydrogen production rate of 255 µmol/h, significantly outperforming one made with NaCl, indicating effective design strategies for optimizing photocatalytic materials.

The discharge of oily wastewater not only pollutes waters but also deteriorates our living environment. Superhydrophobic cotton fabric is considered as an important remedy material for oily wastewater cleanup due to outstanding advantages including low cost, high porosity and switchable wettability. However, the existing superhydrophobic fabrics cannot exhibit durable superhydrophobicity during real-life applications due to poor interaction between the coatings and fabric substrates.

Epidural-related maternal fever (ERMF) heightens the risk of intrapartum fever, whereas effective prevention and treatment in clinical practice are currently lacking. Rapid and sensitive screening tools for ERMF are urgently needed to advance relevant research. In response to this challenge, we devise and craft porous CoO/CuO hollow polyhedral nanocages with p-p heterojunctions derived from metal-organic frameworks.

Herein, we developed a facile method for the synthesis of battery-grade ferric phosphate (FePO·2HO) using high-pressure hydrolyzed precipitates of cobalt-iron alloy acid solution. The size of the prepared FePO·2HO samples was about 5-10 μm, and the microstructure of FePO·2HO was polyhedral. The FePO·2HO samples exhibited a high Fe/P ratio (1.

A key feature of coordination cages is the dynamic nature of their coordinative bonds, which facilitates the synthesis of complex polyhedral structures and their post-assembly modification. However, this dynamic nature can limit cage stability. Increasing cage robustness is important for real-world use cases.
