TL;DR: In this paper, a carbon black supported nano-Ni catalyst was used for hydrogenation of nitrophenols even at 30 degrees C. The high performance obtained by the Ni-based catalyst can be attributed to the specific characteristics of the nanostructure of the catalyst and the synergistic effect of nanoNi and carbon black, including plenty of oxygen-containing groups of carbon black for anchoring Ni atoms.

TL;DR: In this article, a magnetically separable core-shell-like catalyst Ni-Pd/CB is designed and synthesized via a facile sequential reduction strategy, which exhibits excellent catalytic activity under mild aerobic conditions without using toxic solvents and inert protective atmosphere, achieving green catalysis.

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D N, S co-doped reduced Holey graphene oxide/carbonized cellulose paper interlayer was constructed for Li-S batteries, which achieved a high initial discharge capacity of 1263.5 mAh/g at 0.2 C, a low capacity fading rate of 0.0487% per cycle for 300 cycles at 1

TL;DR: The superior electrocatalytic performance of the rGO/Fe@Fe3O4/CP freestanding cathode for electrochemical synthesis of ammonia is mainly attributed to its unique sandwich-like nanoarchitecture with the middle yolk-shell-structured Fe@Fe 3O4 nanoparticles and the synergistic effect between rGO and Fe@ Fe3 O4.

TL;DR: A facile wet-chemistry strategy has been developed for the synthesis of a porous Ru layer deposited onto Ni foam as a competitive candidate for HER over the whole pH range, especially under economical alkaline conditions.
