Surface Reconstruction Induced by Preconditioning in Different Electrolytes Impacts Electrooxidation of Solketal on Multi‐Metal‐Based Catalysts

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The electrocatalytic activity and stability of CoNiFeCu (1:1:1:0.5) toward glycerol and solketal electrooxidation are strongly impacted by the electrolyte composition used during the catalyst activation. Solketal tends to inhibit oxyhydroxide formation and suppresses Cu leaching, leading to increased activity while also supporting increased production ...

Hierarchically Engineered Triple‐Defensive Antifouling Coating with Well‐Regulated Structure for Enhanced Wastewater Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by shark skin, which has a hydrophilic “denticle layer” and a low surface energy “mucus layer,” a triple‐defense antifouling coating is developed. This coating features a robust hydrophilic catalytic nanoparticle layer overlaid with dispersed hydrophobic perfluoro‐silane domains, optimizing fouling resistance, release, and degradation for ...
