Enhancing the d–Electrocatalytic Activity of MXene Through Defect Engineering

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Applications of MXene. ABSTRACT Due to their versatile and tunable surface and bulk chemistry, MXenes have great potential as electrocatalysts for batteries and supercapacitors. When compared with other electrocatalytic processes, in electrocatalytic reactions, MXenes could improve ion diffusion and charge transfer by either providing functional groups

Glycerol carbonate formation from glycerol and dimethyl carbonate using lithium‐based catalysts

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Excess glycerol from biodiesel production can be sustainably converted into value‐added products like glycerol carbonate, for its use in polymers, solvents, and as ecofriendly alternative as green chemical in various chemical industries. This study aims to synthesize a catalyst optimized for the glycerol and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) conversion
