Construction of a Pt‐CeO x Interface for the Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Abstract The creation of metal‐metal oxide interfaces is an important approach to fine‐tuning catalyst properties through strong interfacial interactions. This article presents the work on developing interfaces between Pt and CeO x that improve Pt surface energetics for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) within an alkaline electrolyte. The Pt‐CeO x interfaces are formed by depositing size‐controlled Pt nanoparticles onto a carbon support already coated with ultrathin CeO x nanosheets. This interface structure facilitates substantial electron transfer from Pt to CeO x , resulting in decreased hydrogen binding energies on Pt surfaces, and water dissociation for the HER, as predicted by the density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Electrochemical testing indicates that both Pt specific activity and mass activity are improved by a factor of 2 to 3 following the formation of Pt‐CeO x interfaces. This study underscores the significance and potential of harnessing robust interfacial effects to enhance electrocatalytic reactions.

Breaking C-C Bonds via Electrochemically Mediated Hydrogen Atom Transfer Reactions

Cleaving inert SP3-SP3 carbon-carbon (C-C) bonds selectively remains a major challenge in organic chemistry and a main bottleneck in the chemical upcycling of recalcitrant polyolefin waste. Here, we present an electrochemical strategy using redox mediators to activate and break C-C bonds at room temperature and ambient pressure. Specifically, we use N-hydroxyphthalimide (NHPI) as a redox mediator that undergoes electrochemical oxidation to form the phthalimide-N-oxyl (PINO) radical to initiate hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) reactions with benzylic C-H bonds. The resulting benzylic carbon radical is readily captured by molecular oxygen to form a peroxy radical that decomposes into oxygenated C-C bond-scission fragments. This indirect, mediated approach for Csp3-Csp3 bond cleavage reduces the oxidation potential by > 1.2 V compared to the direct oxidation of the substrate, thereby eliminating deleterious side reactions, such as solvent oxidation, that may occur at high potentials. Studies with a bibenzyl model compound revealed a bifurcated reaction pathway following the initial HAT step. At a bibenzyl conversion of 61.0%, the C-C bond cleavage pathway generates benzaldehyde and benzoic acid products at 38.4% selectivity, and the C-H bond oxygenation pathway leads to 1,2-diphenylethanone and benzil products at 39.2% selectivity. Changes in reaction selectivity were investigated with various model compounds, including bibenzyl, 1,3-diphe-nylpropane, 1,4-diphenylbutane, and their derivatives. Product selectivity is correlated with the C-C bond strength of the reactant, with weaker C-C bonds favoring the C-C bond cleavage pathway. We also evaluated the mediated oxidation of oligo-meric styrene (Mn= 510 Da, OS510) which were converted into oxygenated products. Lastly, proof-of-concept depolymeriza-tion of polystyrene (PS, ~10,000 Da) into oxygenated monomers, dimers, and oligomers was demonstrated using NHPI-mediated oxidation.

Development of Polycrystalline Photoelectrodes with Optimum Compositions and Morphologies for Solar Fuel Production via Electrochemical Synthesis (Final Technical Report)

Photoelectrochemical cells (PECs) can utilize solar energy for water splitting to produce H 2 as a clean fuel. The most critical components of a water-splitting PEC are semiconductor electrodes (photoelectrodes) that absorb solar energy to generate photoexcited charge carriers and transport them to the electrode/electrolyte interface for water reduction and oxidation reactions. While efficient PEC hydrogen production has been successfully demonstrated on the laboratory scale, the commercial viability of PECs depends critically on the cost of H 2 produced by the PECs, which is affected by the cost of PEC construction. Therefore, identifying promising inexpensive semiconductor electrodes is important. The goal of this project was to bring an advancement in the synthesis and understanding of inexpensive polycrystalline photoelectrodes based on oxides. Oxide-based semiconductors are inexpensive, easy to fabricate, and relatively more stable in aqueous media compared to other types of semiconductors. This project developed new electrodeposition methods to produce a variety of oxide-based semiconductor electrodes with precisely controlled compositions and morphologies to enhance photon absorption, electron-hole separation, and the use of electrons and holes for desired chemical reactions. The resulting high-quality photoelectrodes were investigated to establish the structure-composition-morphology-photoelectrochemical property relationships to identify the advantages and limitations of each oxide semiconductor system.

Synergistic effects of mixing and strain in high entropy spinel oxides for oxygen evolution reaction

Developing stable and efficient electrocatalysts is vital for boosting oxygen evolution reaction (OER) rates in sustainable hydrogen production. High-entropy oxides (HEOs) consist of five or more metal cations, providing opportunities to tune their catalytic properties toward high OER efficiency. This work combines theoretical and experimental studies to scrutinize the OER activity and stability for spinel-type HEOs. Density functional theory confirms that randomly mixed metal sites show thermodynamic stability, with intermediate adsorption energies displaying wider distributions due to mixing-induced equatorial strain in active metal-oxygen bonds. The rapid sol-flame method is employed to synthesize HEO, comprising five 3d-transition metal cations, which exhibits superior OER activity and durability under alkaline conditions, outperforming lower-entropy oxides, even with partial surface oxidations. The study highlights that the enhanced activity of HEO is primarily attributed to the mixing of multiple elements, leading to strain effects near the active site, as well as surface composition and coverage.

Operando Unveiling of Hydrogen Spillover Mechanisms on Tungsten Oxide Surfaces

Hydrogen spillover is an important process in catalytic hydrogenation reactions, facilitating H 2 activation and modulating surface chemistry of reducible oxide catalysts. This study focuses on the operando unveiling of platinum-induced hydrogen spillover on monoclinic tungsten trioxide (γ-WO 3 ), employing ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, density functional theory calculations and microkinetic modeling to investigate the dynamic evolution of surface states at varied temperatures. At room temperature, hydrogen spillover results in the formation of W 5+ and hydrogen intermediates (hydroxyl species and adsorbed water), facilitated by Pt metal clusters. With increasing temperature, water desorption, reverse hydrogen spillover and surface-to-bulk diffusion of hydrogen atoms compete with each other, leading initially to reoxidation and then further reduction of W atoms in the near-surface. The combined experimental results and simulations provide a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying hydrogen interaction with reducible metal oxides, lending insights of relevance to the design of enhanced hydrogenation catalysts.

Nanoparticle O–H Bond Dissociation Free Energies from Equilibrium Measurements of Cerium Oxide Colloids

A novel equilibrium strategy for measuring the hydrogen atom affinity of colloidal metal oxide nanoparticles is presented. Reactions between oleate-capped cerium oxide nanoparticle colloids (nanoceria) and organic proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) reagents are used as a model system. Nanoceria redox changes, or hydrogen loadings, and overall reaction stoichiometries were followed by both 1 H NMR and X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopies. Furthermore, these investigations revealed that, in many cases, reactions between nanoceria and PCET reagents reach equilibrium states with good mass balance. Each equilibrium state is a direct measure of the bond strength, or bond dissociation free energy (BDFE), between nanoceria and hydrogen. Further studies, including those with larger nanoceria, indicated that the relevant bond is a surface O–H. Thus, we have measured surface O–H BDFEs for nanoceria—the first experimental BDFEs for any nanoscale metal oxide. Remarkably, the measured CeO–H BDFEs span 13 kcal mol –1 (0.56 eV) with changes in the average redox state of the nanoceria colloid. Possible chemical models for this strong dependence are discussed. We propose that the tunability of ceria BDFEs may be important in explaining its effectiveness in catalysis. More generally, metal oxide BDFEs have been used as predictors of catalyst efficacy that, traditionally, have only been accessible by computational methods. These results provide important experimental benchmarks for metal oxide BDFEs and demonstrate that the concepts of molecular bond strength thermochemistry can be applied to nanoscale materials.

Atomic Layer Deposition for Spatial Control of Redox Reaction Selectivity

Photocatalytic water splitting holds great potential in the pursuit of the U.S. Department of Energy's Hydrogen Shot initiative to bring the cost of H2 to $1/kg by 2031. A key challenge in the development of photocatalysts is increasing their overall solar-to-hydrogen efficiency by enhancing charge separation yields and redox selectivity. In this work, we use area selective ALD of oxide films to develop tunable interphase layers for selective oxidation and reduction reactions on a single substrate. This presentation details initial synthesis and characterization of Pt- and Au-based planar thin film electrodes in which Au regions were deactivated towards ALD growth through self-assembled thiol monolayers. The suppression of TiO2 ALD selectivity of thiols was assessed through ellipsometry, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and cyclic voltammetry. A patterned planar sample comprised of interdigitated arrays of Au and Pt, used as a surrogate for a photocatalyst particle containing two different co-catalysts, was exposed to ALD growth and removal of the inhibitor species. Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) was used then to probe the local activity of different regions of the patterned surface towards the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and iron oxidation and correlated with the ionic and e- blocking effects of the area selective ALD coating. We will also detail the application of these findings to the ongoing development of 3D, particle-based photocatalysts.

Tracking the phase changes in micelle-based NiGa nanocatalysts for methanol synthesis under activation and working conditions

The hydrogenation of CO 2 into high energy density fuels such as methanol, where the required H 2 is obtained from renewable sources, is of utmost importance for a sustainable society. In recent years, NiGa alloys have attracted attention as promising catalyst material systems for the hydrogenation of CO 2 into methanol at ambient pressures. They thus represent an energy-saving alternative to the Cu-based catalysts employed in today's catalytic industry that require high pressures for the CO 2 hydrogenation. However, the underlying reaction mechanisms for the NiGa system are still under debate. One of the challenges here is to unravel the evolution and coexistence of the different species in the heterogeneous NiGa catalyst system under activation and reaction conditions. To shed light on their evolution under activation in H 2 and their catalytic roles under CO 2 hydrogenation working conditions on well-defined Ni 3 Ga 1 and Ni 5 Ga 3 nanoparticle (NP) catalysts, we employed a multi-probe approach in this study. It included advanced machine learning-based analysis of operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy data combined with operando powder X-ray diffraction and near ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements, as well as reactivity studies using bed-packed mass flow reactors. In addition, we employed atomic force microscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy for structural characterization. Under H 2 activation at 1 bar total pressure, we concluded the formation of metallic Ni, starting for Ni 3 Ga 1 at 300 °C, and for Ni 5 Ga 3 at 400 °C. At higher temperatures, the formation of NiGa alloys follows. The α'-Ni 3 Ga 1 alloy phase is predominantly formed for the Ni 3 Ga 1 NPs, while the coexistence of α'-Ni 3 Ga 1 , δ-Ni 5 Ga 3 and Ga 2 O 3 phases is observed for the Ni 5 Ga 3 NPs after the H 2 activation. The formation of the Ga 2 O 3 phase also results in the presence of excess metallic Ni. Under CO 2 hydrogenation reaction conditions, Ga partially oxidizes again to form a Ga 2 O 3 -rich particle shell for both NP compositions, yet, to a larger extent for the Ni 3 Ga 1 NPs, which, in turn, feature a higher amount of excess Ni. We reveal that metallic Ni is responsible for the high selectivity of the Ni 3 Ga 1 NPs towards the production of methane in our catalytic tests. In contrast, the Ni 5 Ga 3 NPs display a strong selectivity toward methanol production (>92%), more than one order of magnitude higher than that for the Ni 3 Ga 1 NPs, which we ascribe to the presence of the δ-Ni 5 Ga 3 phase.

Progresses and Perspectives of All‐Iron Aqueous Redox Flow Batteries

Abstract Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are a promising option for long‐duration energy storage (LDES) due to their stability, scalability, and potential reversibility. However, solid‐state and non‐aqueous flow batteries have low safety and low conductivity, while aqueous systems using vanadium and zinc are expensive and have low power and energy densities, limiting their industrial application. An approach to lower capital cost and improve scalability is to utilize cheap Earth‐abundant metals such as iron (Fe). Nevertheless, all‐iron RFBs have many complications, involving voltage loss from ohmic resistance, side reactions such as hydrogen evolution, oxidation, and most significantly electrode plating, and dendrite growth. To address these issues, researchers have begun to examine the effects of various alterations to all‐iron RFBs, such as adding organic ligands to form Fe complexes and using a slurry electrode instead of common materials such as graphite or platinum rods. Overall, progress in improving aqueous all‐iron RFBs is at its infant stage, and new strategies must be introduced, such as the utilization of nanoparticles, which can limit dendrite growth while increasing storage capacity. This review provides an in‐depth overview of current research and offers perspectives on how to design the next generation of all‐iron aqueous RFBs.

Atomically dispersed Pt single sites and nanoengineered structural defects enable a high electrocatalytic activity and durability for hydrogen evolution reaction and overall urea electrolysis

The scarcity and high cost of PGM electrocatalysts are the key bottleneck in the mass-scale commercialization of many electrolysis technologies. Bifunctional single-atom electrocatalysts (SACs) are promising alternatives for PGM electrocatalysts in next-generation electrolysis technologies because of their superior intrinsic activity and perfect atom utilization. Regulating the coordination environment of platinum atomic sites identifies their electrocatalytic performance. Therefore, exploring more appropriate supports could facilitate the construction of active and durable electrocatalysts with ultralow noble metal content. Herein, we report on a reliable approach for producing a novel type of SACs composed of atomically dispersed Pt active sites stabilized on defective NiCo layered double hydroxide (Pt/D-NiCo LDH) nanosheets as an ultralow-Pt hybrid electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), urea oxidation reaction (UOR), and full urea-water electrolysis. The optimized Pt 1 /D NiCo LDH-24 SAC displays a remarkable HER and UOR performance where it yields a current density of 10 mA cm -2 at 37 mV and 1.25 V vs. RHE for HER and UOR, respectively. Finally, symmetrical urea electrolyzer constructed of Pt 1 /D-NiCo LDH-24 electrodes attains 10 mA cm -2 at a cell voltage of 1.32 V vs. RHE, demonstrating superior activity and durability over 60 h operation when compared to commercial Pt/C( + )||RuO 2 ( - ) system.

Hydrogen Evolution on Restructured B-Rich WB: Metastable Surface States and Isolated Active Sites

Borides have been recently identified to be a class of earth-abundant and low-cost materials that are surprisingly active toward oxidative dehydrogenation and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) catalysis. Here, we explain from first-principles calculations the HER activity of WB, an industrial material known for its superior physical properties and chemical inertness. We find that, compared to bulk termination, a major surface reconstruction takes place, leading to the off-stoichiometric B-rich surface termination that contains the active sites. The hydrogen adsorbate configurations are further investigated under various adsorbate coverages. Many competing configurations appear to be accessible in reaction conditions, and thus, a grand canonical ensemble is established to describe the catalytic system. A phase diagram of adsorbate coverages is constructed as a function of pH and the applied potential. A complex reaction network is presented based on the ensemble-averaged reaction rates, and the electrocatalytic activities are evaluated under different overpotentials. Here, the major contributors to the activity are found to be a few metastable surface states with a distinct electronic structure that are only accessible at high adsorbate coverages in reaction conditions. In addition, while the activity of the dominant active site is nearly the same as that on the unreconstructed WB, the B-rich formations play an important role of isolating the active sites and preventing the passivation of the surface with H 2 bubble formation.

Enhancing electrocatalytic performance of RuO 2 -based catalysts: mechanistic insights, strategic approaches, and recent advances

Abstract Electrochemical water splitting presents the ultimate potential of hydrogen and oxygen production; however, regulating the rate and efficiency of water splitting is highly dependent on the accessibility of extremely efficient electrode materials for slow performance kinetics and large overpotential of both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Ruthenium oxide (RuO 2 ) based materials display high performance for OER and HER because of their capacity to bind oxygen, eminent catalytic activity, low cost compared to other precious metals, and stability in a wide pH range. However, there is still much space to promote the OER and HER activity and stability of RuO 2 to fulfill the necessity for practical applications in water splitting. Different researchers applied multiple approaches that boosted the catalytic performance of RuO 2 -based electrocatalysts toward overall water splitting. Herein, this review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in RuO 2 -based materials in the field of water electrolysis for the generation of alternative energies. It gives a general description of water splitting in acidic and alkaline settings, including reaction mechanisms as well as common evaluation elements for the catalytic function of the materials. Most of the reviews reported based on RuO 2 materials are only focused on OER performance, but this review highlighted comprehensive ideas on different strategies like morphology design, electronic structure, electrolytes, and compositions for optimizing both electrocatalytic HER and OER functioning of RuO 2 -based electrocatalysts.

Discovery of LaAlO 3 as an efficient catalyst for two-electron water electrolysis towards hydrogen peroxide

Electrochemical two-electron water oxidation reaction (2e-WOR) has drawn significant attention as a promising process to achieve the continuous on-site production of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). However, compared to the cathodic H 2 O 2 generation, the anodic 2e-WOR is more challenging to establish catalysts due to the severe oxidizing environment. In this study, we combine density functional theory (DFT) calculations with experiments to discover a stable and efficient perovskite catalyst for the anodic 2e-WOR. Our theoretical screening efforts identify LaAlO 3 perovskite as a stable, active, and selective candidate for catalyzing 2e-WOR. Our experimental results verify that LaAlO 3 achieves an overpotential of 510 mV at 10 mA cm -2 in 4 M K 2 CO 3 /KHCO 3 , lower than those of many reported metal oxide catalysts. In addition, LaAlO 3 maintains a stable H 2 O 2 Faradaic efficiency with only a 3% decrease after 3 h at 2.7 V vs. RHE. This computation-experiment synergistic approach introduces another effective direction to discover promising catalysts for the harsh anodic 2e-WOR towards H 2 O 2 .

Master equation study of hydrogen abstraction from HCHO by OH via a chemically activated intermediate

The abstraction reaction of hydrogen from formaldehyde by OH radical plays an important role in formaldehyde oxidation. The reaction involves a bimolecular association to form a chemically activated hydrogen-bonded reaction complex followed by a unimolecular reaction of the complex to generate the products. The reaction rate is usually considered to be pressure-independent by assuming equilibrium between the reactants and the complex. However, our nonequilibrium calculations based on the chemically significant eigenmode of the master equation, carried out with our recently developed TUMME program, indicate that the reaction complex makes the rate constant dependent on pressure at low temperatures (T < 200 K). The calculations include anharmonicity, variational effects, and multi-dimensional tunneling. We find that the reaction rate constant reaches a low-pressure limit at pressures below 10 Torr over the whole investigated temperature range (20–1800 K), which explains why the available low-temperature experiments, which are for pressures below 2 Torr, did not observe the pressure dependence. A new extension of the TUMME master-equation program is used to explore the time evolutions of the concentrations of the OH radical and the complex under pseudo-first-order conditions. The time-dependent evolution of the concentrations of the complex at a low temperature provide direct evidence for the stabilization of the reaction complex at high pressures, and it shows the negligible role of the stabilized reaction complex at low pressures. Finally, the picture that emerges is qualitatively consistent with our previous study of the reaction of methanol with OH in that the tunneling in the unimolecular step from the complex to the products affects the phenomenological reaction rate constants differently at high and low pressures and leads to a significant pressure effect.

Kinetics of Direct Olefin Synthesis from Syngas over Mixed Beds of Zn–Zr Oxides and SAPO-34

A packed bed containing a physical mixture of both Zn–Zr mixed oxide catalyst and SAPO-34 converts syngas directly into a mixture of C 2 –C 5 olefins and paraffins. Specifically, the mixed oxide catalyst is responsible for intermediate oxygenate synthesis from syngas while the molecular sieve catalyzes olefin synthesis from the oxygenate intermediates. Kinetic measurements with cofed propylene over each catalyst independently confirm olefin hydrogenation activity over both components of the composite bed. The addition of either water or CO to the feed drops the activity of propylene hydrogenation over the Zn–Zr oxide. In sum, under reaction conditions of syngas feed and produced water, olefin hydrogenation predominantly occurs over the SAPO-34 catalyst, rather than over the catalyst responsible for hydrogenating CO into oxygenate intermediates. Here, a developed kinetic model consistent with this conclusion describes measurements at differing feed compositions, temperatures, space velocities, and bed catalyst mixing ratios. Technoeconomic analysis of the process indicates that the olefin-to-paraffin ratio is a key performance metric for commercial scale syngas conversion and highlights the importance of considering olefin hydrogenation rates over the molecular sieve component.

Paired electrocatalysis in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural valorization

5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has aroused considerable interest over the past years as an important biomass-derived platform molecule, yielding various value-added products. The conventional HMF conversion requires noble metal catalysts and harsh operating conditions. On the other hand, the electrocatalytic conversion of HMF has been considered as an environmentally benign alternative. However, its practical application is limited by low overall energy efficiency and incomplete conversion. Paired electrolysis and highly efficient electrocatalysts are two viable strategies to address these limitations. Herein, an overview of coupled electrocatalytic HMF hydrogenation or hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with HMF oxidation as well as the associated electrocatalysts are reviewed and discussed. In this mini-review, a brief introduction of electrocatalytic HMF upgrading is given, followed by the recent advances and challenges of paired electrolysis with an emphasis on the integration HMF electrohydrogenation with HMF electrooxidation. Finally, a perspective for a future sustainable biomass upgrading community based on electrocatalysis is proposed.

Membrane Degradation in PEM Fuel Cells: Part I. Modeling Gas Crossover and the Pt Band

Understanding chemical degradation of the proton-exchange membrane in fuel cells is crucial for extending their lifetimes. Herein, various degradation reactions reported in literature are organized and analyzed, including direct radical generation and an indirect (Fenton) pathway. To understand the transport of dissolved H 2 and O 2 crossover gases as they relate to membrane degradation, an agglomerate-scale model is introduced, treating gas, ionomer, and catalyst as discrete phases. The model reveals a key phenomenon: at working potentials, dissolved gases are mostly consumed at the interface between the catalyst layer and the membrane, leaving little gas to cross the membrane. Under open-circuit conditions, dissolved gases are not consumed and can then cross the membrane. This explains high H 2 O 2 concentrations and degradation rates seen in experiments but not captured in previous models. Following mixed-potential theory, crossover gases supply the hydrogen-oxidation and oxygen-reduction reactions, which occur simultaneously on individual Pt particles comprising the Pt band in the membrane, forming reactive species (H 2 O 2 , OH·). Results show crossover gas almost entirely reacts on the Pt band, allowing little to reach the opposite electrode. Furthermore, the micro-scale geometry of the catalyst-layer/membrane interface impacts the gas crossover at working potentials, indicating that cell construction affects membrane durability.
