Towards the computational design of solid catalysts.
Over the past decade the theoretical description of surface reactions has undergone a radical development. Advances in density functional theory mean it is now possible to describe catalytic reactions at surfaces with the detail and accuracy required for computational results to compare favourably with experiments. Theoretical methods can be used to describe surface chemical reactions in detail...
متن کاملElectrochemical reduction of CO2 on graphene supported transition metals - towards single atom catalysts.
In this study, we have investigated the use of single metal atoms supported on defective graphene as catalysts for the electrochemical reduction of CO2 using the first-principles approach and the computational hydrogen electrode model. Reaction pathways to produce a variety of C1 products CO, HCOOH, HCHO, CH3OH and CH4 have been studied in detail for five representative transition metals Ag, Cu...
متن کاملComputational Design of Alloy-Core@Shell Metal Nanoparticle Catalysts
The alloy-core@shell nanoparticle structure combines the advantages of a robust noble-metal shell and a tunable alloy-core composition. In this study we demonstrate a set of linear correlations between the binding of adsorbates to the shell and the alloy-core composition, which are general across a range of nanoparticle compositions, size, and adsorbate molecules. This systematic tunability all...
متن کاملDissymmetric dinuclear transition metal complexes as dual site catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene
A series of dissymmetric dinuclear complexes were synthesized, as dual site catalysts in ethylene polymerization, by coupling the allylated a-diimine complexes of the metals Ti, Zr, V, Ni and Pd with the ansa-zirconocene complex [C5H4-SiH(Me)-C5H4]ZrCl2 possessing a hydride silane moiety. The different stages of syntheses included the formation of bis(cyclopentadienide)methyl silane which was u...
متن کاملCarbon nanocomposite catalysts for oxygen reduction and evolution reactions_ From nitrogen doping to transition-metal addition
ticle as: G. Wu, et n-metal addition, Abstract Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and evolution reaction (OER) are one pair of the most important electrochemical reactions associated with energy conversion and storage technologies, such as fuel cells, metal–air batteries, and water electrolyzers. However, the sluggish ORR and OER requires a significantly large quantity of precious metals (e.g., Pt...
