Rapid Joule‐Heating‐Induced Non‐Equilibrium Exsolution in Perovskite Oxides for Enhanced Photothermal CO2 Methanation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Rapid Joule heating induces Ni—Fe exsolution from perovskite oxides, forming Ni–Fe/oxide heterointerfaces that enhance photothermal CO2 methanation activity and selectivity. Achieving selective CO2 methanation under photothermal conditions requires catalysts capable of maintaining non‐equilibrium interfacial states that balance reduction and oxidation ...

Tuning Colloidal Stability and Photothermal Conversion Efficiency of Graphite Nanofluids via Anionic‐Nonionic Surfactant Engineering

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Graphite nanofluids were stabilized using a mixed SDS/Tween 80 surfactant system. The optimized formulation exhibited enhanced colloidal stability, red‐shifted UV–Vis absorption, and improved photothermal conversion under solar irradiation. Achieving stable dispersion of graphite flakes (GFs) in aqueous media remains a critical challenge in developing ...
