Lattice Distortion and H-passivation in Pure Carbon Electrocatalysts for Efficient and Stable Two-electron Oxygen Reduction to H2O2

The exploration of inexpensive and efficient catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is crucial for chemical and energy industries. Carbon materials have been proved promising with different catalysts enabling 2 and 4e⁻ ORR. Nevertheless, their ORR activity and selectivity is still complex and under debate in many cases. Many structures of these active carbon materials are also chemically unstable for practical implementations. Unlike the well-discussed structures, this work presents a strategy to promote efficient and stable 2e⁻ ORR of carbon materials through the synergistic effect of lattice distortion and H-passivation (on the distorted structure). We show how these structures can be formed on carbon cloth, and how the reproducible chemical adsorption can be realized on these structures for efficient and stable H₂O₂ production. The work here gives not only new understandings on the 2e⁻ ORR catalysis, but also the robust catalyst which can be directly used in industry.     

Self-assembled monolayers of CH3COS- terminated surfactant-encapsulated polyoxometalate complexes

Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on gold surfaces based on three kinds of acetylthio-surfactant-encapsulated polyoxometalate clusters (thio-SECs) terminated with multiple CH(3)COS- groups, (NC(26)H(55)S(CO)CH(3))(6)H(2)[Co(H(2)O)CoW(11)O(39)], (NC(26)H(55)S(CO)CH(3))(13)H(3)[Co(4)(H(2)O)(2)(P(2)W(15)O(56))(2)], and (NC(26)H(55)S(CO)CH(3))(13)[Fe(4)(H(2)O)(2)(P(2)W(15)O(56))(2)]Br, have been prepared, which is representative of a general methodology to fabricate polyoxometalate-based SAMs. Thio-SECs self-assembled into monolayers on gold surfaces through the hydrolysis of CH(3)COS- groups and the subsequent formation of S-Au bonds, which was confirmed by grazing angle infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and ellipsometric and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements. Furthermore, the SAMs of the thio-SECs possess closely packed structures, and the local short-range order is clearly observed in the magnified STM image. We have also investigated the electrochemical behavior of SAMs of thio-SECs by cyclic voltammetry in detail, and the redox potential of the original polyoxometalates has been well retained. The electrochemical signals of the SAMs are very weak because of the small moiety of thio-SECs that are electrochemically accessible in the cyclic voltammetry experiments. The polyoxometalate-modified electrodes that we prepared are not only highly ordered in the local short range but also stable in electrochemical cycling because of the multiple S-Au bonds of thio-SECs on the gold substrates that aid in the construction of functional materials such as electrochemical and electrocatalytic devices.     

Conducting poly(aniline) nanotubes and nanofibers: controlled synthesis and application in lithium/poly(aniline) rechargeable batteries

The primary aim of this work was to synthesize aligned perchloric-acid-doped poly(aniline) (HClO(4)-doped PANI) nanotubes by a simple alumina template method and to investigate their application in lithium/poly(aniline) rechargeable batteries. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis were used to characterize the nanostructures obtained. The second aim addressed the preparation of HClO(4)-doped PANI microspheres and nanofibers on a large scale through a modified spraying technique, since the template synthesis has limitations in mass production. The present synthesis methods are simple and can be extended to the preparation of a broad range of one-dimensional conductive polymers. Furthermore, electrochemical measurements showed that the as-prepared HClO(4)-doped PANI nanotubes exhibit better electrode performances than their commercial counterparts because they possess more active sites, higher conductivity, and relative flexibility. This indicates that HClO(4)-doped poly(aniline) nanomaterials are promising in the application of lithium/polymer rechargeable batteries.     

Reinforced self-assembly of hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronenes by hydrogen bonds: from microscopic aggregates to macroscopic fluorescent organogels

Hexa-peri-hexabenzocoronene derivatives (HBCs) that have hydrogen-bonding functionalities (either amido or ureido groups) adjacent to the aromatic cores have been synthesized to study the effects of intracolumnar hydrogen bonds on the self-assembly behavior of HBCs. The hydrogen bonds effectively increased the aggregation tendency of these compounds in solution. In the bulk state, the typical columnar supramolecular arrangement of HBCs was either stabilized substantially (1 a, 1 b, 2 a, and 2 b), or suppressed by dominant hydrogen-bonding interactions (3). For some of the compounds (1 a, 2 a, and 2 b), the supramolecular arrangement adopted in the liquid-crystalline state was even retained after annealing, presumably owing to the reinforcement of the pi-stacking interactions by the hydrogen bonds. Additionally, the combined effect of the hydrogen bonds and pi-stacking of the aromatic moieties led to the formation of fluorescent organogels, whereby some derivatives were further investigated as novel low molecular-mass organic gelators (LMOGs).
