以 Mo2C/VC 作为质子交换膜燃料电池氧还原催化剂, 并采用单电池和电化学循环伏安扫描技术考察了其氧还原活性,同时结合 X 射线衍射和 X 射线光电子能谱对其电催化机理进行初步分析. 结果表明, Mo2C/VC 对氧还原也具有电催化活性, 在 0.34, 0.45 和 0.55 V 处出现三对可逆的氧化还原峰. Mo2C/VC 的体相为β-Mo2C, 表相为+δ价(5 ≤δ≤ 6)的 MoOxCy 和 MoOz. Mo2C/VC 的电催化性能可能是由于其表面钝化物种(MoOxCy 和 MoOz)的氧化还原, 以及氧在 Mo2C 晶格中的迁入和迁出引起的.

采用X射线衍射、N2物理吸附和程序升温脱附-质谱等表征手段考察了活性炭经Ar气保护下高温石墨化、O2-N2混合气氧化和HNO3处理后孔结构及表面基团的变化.结果表明,活性炭在惰性气氛中高温处理能够部分石墨化,且温度越高,石墨化程度越高.高温处理后的活性炭纯度和稳定性提高,但其比表面积大幅度减小.进一步的氧化扩孔处理能在一定程度上恢复石墨化活性炭的比表面积和孔结构.随后的HNO3处理可以使石墨化活性炭表面的含氧基团增加,改变载体的浸润性能,有利于催化剂活性组分的分散及催化活性的提高.

氢还原下铁钼催化剂的表面性质

用XPS对H_2还原下的铁钼催化剂的表面性质进行了研究。实验表明:H_2还原使表面钼离子由Mo~(6+)还原为Mo~(5+)和Mo~(4+),并与Fe~(3+)作用氧化为Mo~(6+);Fe~(3+)则由于与Mo~(5+)和Mo~(4+)作用以及H_2还原而变为Fe~(2+),从而形成了一个没有O_2存在,仅有H_2作用下的Mars-Krevelen氧化还原循环过程。在催化剂表面上生成的FeMoO_4,其Mo~(6+)的3d3/2和3d5/2的结合能值比Fe_2(MoO_4)_3中的Mo~(6+)的3d能级结合能值低。Mo(或Mo和Fe)离子键合的O~(2-)与H_2作用生成的Mo(Fe)-OH,其Os结合能的测定值低于键合于Mo(Fe)离子中的O~(2-)的Os结合能值,并且该结合能峰由于-OH间的相互作用结合成的水的脱附而消失。此外.给出了还原过程中H_2与催化剂表面O~(2-)相互作用的反应图式。     

MCM-41分子筛负载钼钴系催化剂的程序升温硫化研究

采用程序升温硫化（TPS）技术，研究了负载于MCM－41分子筛的钼钴系催化剂的性能，根据TPOS结果可知，（1）载体和MoO3相互作用的强度顺序如下：Al2O3＞Al2O3-MCM-41＞MCM－41＞TiO2－MCM－41，说明TiO2具有削弱MCM－41和MoO3作用的能力；而Al2O3则相反，它增加了MoO3和MCM－41的相互作用。（2）助剂CoO对负载于未经改性的MCM－41载体上的MoO3的硫化没有明显的促进作用，这和以Al2O3为载体的情况下不同，在Al2O3上，MoO3和CoO可能生成Co-Mo－O复合相，从而促进了MoO3的硫化。（3）助剂CoO对负载于经TiO2和Al2O3改性的MCM－41上的MoO3的硫化起了促进作用。     

程序升温还原法表征负载贵金属催化剂

采用程序升温还原法(TPR)考察了PdO/Al2O3、PdO/Al2O3(含QYZH)、PdO/SiO2-Al2O3、PtO2/Al2O3、PtO2-Re2-Re2O7/Al2O3、PdO-PtO2/Al2O3等催化剂活性组分之间以及活性组分与载体之间的相互作用.发现催化剂经NaOH水溶液浸渍或添加了助剂QYZH能增强活性组分与载体之间的相互作用,并证明了PtO2/Al2O3催化剂中载体表面存在着强弱不同的Pt离子吸附中心(低温吸附中心和高温吸附中心),而且双金属催化剂中双金属组分之间可能存在着相互作用.     

Carbon Nanotube Supported Molybdenum Carbide as Robust Electrocatalyst for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Molybdenum carbide is considered to be one of the most competitive catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) regarding its high catalytic activity and superior corrosion resistance. But the low electrical conductivity and poor interfacial contact with the current collector greatly inhibit its practical application capability. Herein, carbon nanotube (CNT) supported molybdenum carbide was assembled via electrostatic adsorption combined with complex bonding. The N-doped molybdenum carbide nanocrystals were uniformly anchored on the surfaces of amino CNTs, which depressed the agglomeration of nanoparticles while strengthening the migration of electrons. The optimized catalyst (250-800-2h) showed exceptional electrocatalytic performance towards HER under both acidic and alkaline conditions. Especially in 0.5 M H₂SO₄ solution, the 250-800-2h catalyst exhibited a low overpotential of 136 mV at a current density of 10 mA/cm² (η₁₀) with the Tafel slope of 49.9 mV dec⁻¹, and the overpotential only increased 8 mV after 20,000 cycles of stability test. The active corrosive experiment revealed that more exposure to high-activity γ-Mo₂N promoted the specific mass activity of Mo, thus, maintaining the catalytic durability of the catalyst.     

Porous Molybdenum Carbide Nanostructures Synthesized on Carbon Cloth by CVD for Efficient Hydrogen Production

Molybdenum carbide (Mo₂C) is a promising noble-metal-free electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), due to its structural and electronic merits, such as high conductivity, metallic band states and wide pH applicability. Here, a simple CVD process was developed for synthesis of a Mo₂C on carbon cloth (Mo₂C@CC) electrode with carbon cloth as carbon source and MoO₃ as the Mo precursor. XRD, Raman, XPS and SEM results of Mo₂C@CC with different amounts of MoO₃ and growth temperatures suggested a two-step synthetic mechanism, and porous Mo₂C nanostructures were obtained on carbon cloth with 50 mg MoO₃ at 850 °C (Mo₂C-850(50)). With the merits of unique porous nanostructures, a low overpotential of 72 mV at current density of 10 mA cm⁻² and a small Tafel slope of 52.8 mV dec⁻¹ was achieved for Mo₂C-850(50) in 1.0 m KOH. The dual role of carbon cloth as electrode and carbon source resulted into intimate adhesion of Mo₂C on carbon cloth, offering fast electron transfer at the interface. Cyclic voltammetry measurements for 5000 cycles revealed that Mo₂C@CC had excellent electrochemical stability. This work provides a novel strategy for synthesizing Mo₂C and other efficient carbide electrocatalysts for HER and other applications, such as supercapacitors and lithium-ion batteries.

以WO3为前驱体考察了CH4/H2混合气氛下程序升温反应制备碳化钨的晶相转变过程,比较了不同晶相碳化钨催化剂的肼分解活性,并以CO为探针分子采用微量吸附量热技术研究了碳化钨晶相转变过程中催化剂的表面活性位. 结果表明,随W2C晶相的生成,催化剂对CO的吸附活化能力逐渐增强,纯相W2C表现有最好的肼分解活性. 当制备温度高于750 ℃时,样品表面形成的积炭抑制了碳化钨的催化性能. 表面洁净的WC在肼分解反应中具有优于W2C的类贵金属催化特性.     

XPS Characterization of Carbon Nanotube Supported CoMo Hydrodesulfurization Catalysts

In this paper, the effect of catalytic support and sulfiding method on the chemical state of supported Co-Mo catalysts is studied by XPS. After sulfidation with in-situ method, the majority of molybdenum in CNT supported CoMo catalyst is transferred to a species with a formal chemical state Mo(Ⅳ) in MoS2 phase, and the rest to Mo(Ⅴ) which consists of Mo coordinated both to O and S, such as MoO2S2^2- and MoO3S^2-. In case of CoMo/γ-Al2O3 catalyst sulfided with in-situ method, a fraction of molybdenum is transferred to formal state Mo(Ⅳ) in the form of MoS2, but there is still a mount of unreduced Mo(VI) phase which is difficult to be sulfided. In CoMo/CNT catalyric system sulfided with ex-situ method, Mo(IV) in the form of MoS2 is detected along with a portion of unreduced Mo(VI) phase, suggesting that not all the Mo phases are reduced and sulfided by ex-situ method. As for CoMo/γ-Al2O3, a portion of molybdenum is sulfided to intermediate reduced state Mo(V) which consists of Mo coordinated both to O and S, such as MoO2S2^2- and MoO3S^2-, in addition, there is still a fraction of unreduced Mo(Ⅵ)phase. XPS analyses results suggest that CNT support facilitates the reduction and sulfidation of active species to a large extent, and that alumina support strongly interacts with active species, hereby producing a fraction of phase which resists complete sulfiding. Catalytic measurements of catalysts in the HDS of dibenzothiophene (DBT) show that CoMo/CNT catalysts are of higher HDS activity and selectivity than CoMo/γ-Al2O3 catalyst, which is in good relation with the sulfiding behavior of the corresponding catalyst.     

Synthesis of Silicon Carbide Fibers by Sol-Gel Processing

Silica-phenolic resin hybrid fibers with carbon-to-silicon atomic ratios of 2.6 to 5.4 have been prepared from ethanol solutions of tetraethoxysilane, phenolic resins, water, and hydrochloric acid with a tetraethoxysilane-H₂O−HCl molar ratio of 1:2:0.01 by sol-gel processing. The hybrid fibers have been heated at 1500°C in Ar for carbothermal reduction to convert them into silicon carbide fibers. The effects of the holding time at 1500°C and the carbon-to-silicon atomic ratio of the hybrid fibers on the free carbon content in the silicon carbide fibers have been investigated. It has been found that the conversion is complete by the heat-treatment for more than 2 h. The silicon carbide fibers with a free carbon content of ca. 2 wt% have been obtained from the hybrid fibers with the ratios of 2.6 to 4.3.     

Ultrafine Molybdenum Carbide Nanoparticles Composited with Carbon as a Highly Active Hydrogen‐Evolution Electrocatalyst

The replacement of platinum with non‐precious‐metal electrocatalysts with high efficiency and superior stability for the hydrogen‐evolution reaction (HER) remains a great challenge. Herein, we report the one‐step synthesis of uniform, ultrafine molybdenum carbide (Mo₂C) nanoparticles (NPs) within a carbon matrix from inexpensive starting materials (dicyanamide and ammonium molybdate). The optimized catalyst consisting of Mo₂C NPs with sizes lower than 3 nm encapsulated by ultrathin graphene shells (ca. 1–3 layers) showed superior HER activity in acidic media, with a very low onset potential of ?6 mV, a small Tafel slope of 41 mV dec^?1, and a large exchange current density of 0.179 mA cm^?2, as well as good stability during operation for 12 h. These excellent properties are similar to those of state‐of‐the‐art 20 % Pt/C and make the catalyst one of the most active acid‐stable electrocatalysts ever reported for HER.     

Carbon Dynamics on the Molybdenum Carbide Surface during Catalytic Propane Dehydrogenation

The effect of the gas‐phase chemical potential on surface chemistry and reactivity of molybdenum carbide has been investigated in catalytic reactions of propane in oxidizing and reducing reactant mixtures by adding H₂, O₂, H₂O, and CO₂ to a C₃H₈/N₂ feed. The balance between surface oxidation state, phase stability, carbon deposition, and the complex reaction network involving dehydrogenation reactions, hydrogenolysis, metathesis, water‐gas shift reaction, hydrogenation, and steam reforming is discussed. Raman spectroscopy and a surface‐sensitive study by means of in situ X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy evidence that the dynamic formation of surface carbon species under a reducing atmosphere strongly shifts the product spectrum to the C₃‐alkene at the expense of hydrogenolysis products. A similar response of selectivity, which is accompanied by a boost of activity, is observed by tuning the oxidation state of Mo in the presence of mild oxidants, such as H₂O and CO₂, in the feed as well as by V doping. The results obtained allow us to draw a picture of the active catalyst surface and to propose a structure–activity correlation as a map for catalyst optimization.     

COx-Free Hydrogen and Carbon Nanofibers Produced from Direct Decomposition of Methane on Nickel-Based Catalysts

Direct decomposition of methane was carried out using a fixed-bed reactor at 700℃for the production of COx-free hydrogen and carbon nanofibers. The catalytic performance of NiO-M/SiO2 catalysts (where M=AgO, CoO, CuO, FeO, MnOx and MoO) in methane decomposition was investigated. The experimental results indicate that among the tested catalysts, NiO/SiO2 promoted with CuO give the highest hydrogen yield. In addition, the examination of the most suitable catalyst support, including Al2O3, CeO2, La2O3, SiO2, and TiO2, shows that the decomposition of methane over NiO-CuO favors SiO2 support. Furthermore, the optimum ratio of NiO to CuO on SiO2 support for methane decomposition was determined. The experimental results show that the optimum weight ratio of NiO to CuO fell at 8:2 (w/w) since the highest yield of hydrogen was obtained over this catalyst.     

硫化CoMo催化剂上H2同时还原NO和SO2的研究Ⅰ.H2还原NO反应

 研究了Al2O3担载的硫化CoMo催化剂上NO被H2还原的规律，并考察了不同Mo含量的CoMo／Al2O3催化剂、单一的Mo／Al2O3和Co／Al2O3催化剂，以及原料气中H2／NO比对反应活性和选择性的影响．结果表明，硫化的5．1％Co－15．2％Mo／Al2O3催化剂具有最高的催化活性和选择性，在200℃以下时反应产物为N2O，在350℃以上时则完全转化为N2．进一步增加Mo含量引起在350～450℃间N2选择性轻微下降．提高原料气中的H2含量可明显提高反应活性和N2选择性，但当n（H2）／n（NO）＞3后反应性能不再变化．催化剂具有较高的稳定性，反应产物中始终未观察到有H2S或SO2产生，即反应未引起催化剂中的晶格S流失．这说明H2的存在抑制了NO对硫化物表面的氧化所导致的催化剂失活．
