Balancing d‐π/d‐π* Interactions: Valence‐Engineered Pd/TiO2 for Photocatalytic Acetylene Semi‐Hydrogenation

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Photocatalytic acetylene (C2H2) semihydrogenation is a green route for ethylene (C2H4) production, yet the activity–selectivity trade‐off caused by imbalanced adsorption/activation of reactants and products remains a core challenge. Herein, we realize precise regulation of Pd oxidation states (Pd0, Pdδ+, and Pd2+) on anatase TiO2 nanocubes via

VO2 Hollow Nano‐Reactor: Enabling Near‐Room‐Temperature and Ultrafast Hydrogen Release From α‐AlH3

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT α‐phase aluminum trihydride (α‐AlH3) is a promising high‐capacity hydrogen storage material, but its practical application is limited by slow dehydrogenation kinetics and high reaction temperatures. This study demonstrates, for the first time, effective modulation of the hydrogen release kinetics of AlH3 by employing a hollow nanostructured ...

Research Progress and Prospect of Single‐Atom Materials in Tumor Catalytic Therapy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Tumor catalytic therapy (TCT), an emerging therapeutic modality, exerts specific cytotoxic effects on tumor cells by catalyzing endogenous substances within the tumor microenvironment (TME)—including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), glucose, and glutathione—to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) or deplete protective biomolecules.

Anchoring Polyoxometalate (PMo11Fe) on ZnO Nanosheet for Construction of a Novel S‐Scheme Heterojunction Toward Efficient Photodegradation of Levofloxacin Antibiotics

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Currently, the photocatalytic performance of ZnO has been severely limited by its weak light response ability and sluggish charge carrier dynamics, which considerably hinder its extensive application in photocatalytic fields. Herein, through anchoring the synthesized K6PMo11FeO40·nH2O (PMo11Fe) onto ZnO nanosheets, a novel S‐scheme ...

Synergistic Effect of Hydrophilic Surface and Nano‐Ag2O in TiO2‐Based Composites Coating on Antibacterial and Osteogenic Properties of Low Modulus Ti‐Mo‐Ag Alloy

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ti‐15Mo‐2.5Ag alloy exhibited a low modulus and strong antibacterial ability but poor bioactivity. To resolve this problem, sandblasting and anodization were used to create a hydrophilic and nano‐Ag2O‐containing TiO2 coating. Subsequently, the microstructure and physicochemical properties were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X ...

Efficient Photocatalytic Removal of Toluene by Synergistic FeCe/TiO2: Performance and Mechanism

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Efficient removal of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in confined spaces is crucial for environments such as spacecraft and deep‐sea submarines. Metal modification is an effective strategy to enhance the light absorption capacity of titanium dioxide (TiO2) and suppress the recombination of photogenerated charge carriers.
