TL;DR: In this article, the effects of alkali concentration, modulus of the alkali silicate solution and reaction temperature on geopolymerization were studied systematically by isothermal calorimetry, as well as X-ray diffraction and 27Al/29Si MAS NMR results show that the geopolymersization process of metakaolinite under alkali activation condition can be reasonably supposed into three stages: (I) destruction, (II) polymerization and (III) stabilization.

TL;DR: In this article, nano-sized nickel catalysts were characterized by XRD, EDS, SEM, HRTEM and Mastersizer 2000, and it was shown that as-prepared catalysts are pure f.c. nickel and are prone to aggregation.
Abstract: p-Aminophenol was synthesized by catalytic hydrogenation of p-nitrophenol on nano-sized nickel catalysts prepared by a chemical reduction method from aqueous solutions. The catalysts were characterized by XRD, EDS, SEM, HRTEM and Mastersizer 2000. Analysis results show that as-prepared catalysts are pure f.c.c. nickel and are prone to aggregation; the average particle size of nickel catalysts is 57 nm and there are high-density defects on particle surfaces. In hydrogenation reactions of p-nitrophenol, the hydrogenation rate is zero-order dependent on nitro aromatics and increases with increasing of hydrogen pressure. Compared with commercial Raney Ni, catalytic properties (activity, selectivity, and stability) of the as-prepared nickel are superior. The reason proposed for higher catalytic activity of nano-sized nickel is a combination effect of the small particle size and high-density surface defects. The partial sintering of nano-sized nickel might lead to the deactivation of the catalytic activity of nano-sized nickel.

TL;DR: Single protein encapsulated into nanogels with uniformed size and controllable shell thickness exhibits similar biocatalytic behavior and significantly improved stability at high temperature and in the presence of organic solvent.
Abstract: Single protein encapsulated into nanogels with uniformed size and controllable shell thickness were prepared by surface acryloylation of a protein molecule followed by aqueous in situ polymerization. Compared to its free counterpart, the encapsulated protein exhibits similar biocatalytic behavior and significantly improved stability at high temperature and in the presence of organic solvent.

TL;DR: This Minireview summarizes recent developments in the application of surfactants for the preparation of new crystalline inorganic materials, including chalcogenides, metal-organic frameworks, and zeolite analogues.
Abstract: Given that surfactants can control the shape and size of micro-/nanoparticles, they should be able to direct the growth of bulk crystals. This Minireview summarizes recent developments in the application of surfactants for the preparation of new crystalline inorganic materials, including chalcogenides, metal-organic frameworks, and zeolite analogues. The roles of surfactants in different reaction systems are discussed.

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of recent advances in metal oxide-based electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) can be found in this paper, with special emphasis on designed strategies for promoting performance and property-activity correlation.
Abstract: Hydrogen production from electrochemical water splitting represents a highly promising technology for sustainable energy storage, but its widespread implementation heavily relies on the development of high-performance and cost-effective hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) electrocatalysts. Metal oxides, an important family of functional materials with diverse compositions and structures, were traditionally believed inactive towards HER. Encouragingly, the continuous breakthroughs and significant progress in recent years (mainly from 2015 onwards) make engineered metal oxides emerge as promising candidates for HER electrocatalysis. In this article, we present a comprehensive review of recent advances in metal oxide-based electrocatalysts for HER. We start with a brief description of some key fundamental concepts of HER, such as mechanisms, computational activity descriptors, and experimental parameters used to evaluate catalytic performance. This is followed by a overview of various types of metal oxide-based HER electrocatalysts reported so far, including single transition metal oxides, spinel oxides, perovskite oxides, metal (oxy)hydroxides, specially-structured metal oxides and oxide-containing hybrids, with special emphasis on designed strategies for promoting performance and property–activity correlation. Finally, some concluding remarks and perspectives about future opportunities of this exciting field are provided.
