The preparation of palladium-based catalysts with both high catalytic activity and hydrothermal stability currently appears as a critical topic in methane combustion. Herein, we propose a facile strategy to boost the performance of SnO-CeO binary oxide supported palladium catalysts by tuning the composition of supports. The coexistence of SnO and CeO phases in an appropriate ratio is favorable for the formation of both PdCeO and PdSnO solid solutions due to the reduced crystallite size. This unique microstructure could enhance the metal-support interaction to stabilize the active PdO phase and promote its reoxidation, meanwhile generating more oxygen vacancies to improve the reducibility of PdO. On account of the facilitated conversion of PdO ↔ Pd, coupled with the low-temperature dissociation of methane promoted by abundant active oxygen species, the Pd/5Sn5Ce catalyst exhibits a superior catalytic activity with a of ca. 360 °C, a robust stability under both dry and wet conditions, and an excellent thermal stability during heating-cooling light-off tests.

The delicate construction of electrocatalysts with high catalytic activity is a strategic method to enhance the kinetics of lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs). Adjusting the local structure of the catalyst is always crucial for understanding the structure-activity relationship between atomic structure and catalyst performance. Here, in situ induction of electron-deficient B enables phase engineering MoC, realizing the transition from hexagonal (h-MoC) to cubic phase (c-B-MoC).

In this work, a promising material of polyaniline (PANI) and two-dimensional molybdenum diselenides consisting of a PANI@2D-MoSe binary composite was prepared by an electrochemical polymerization ethod. The as-prepared PANI@2D-MoSe, the polymer covered in the sheet-like structure of 2D-MoSe surface morphologies, was observed through FE-SEM and HR-TEM studies. The SAED pattern of PANI@2D-MoSe was observed to be in an octahedral phase.
