Abstract:
We report a novel metal-corrosion route beyond traditional top-down or bottom-up strategies for the mass production of 2D TMOs with a self-supported structure. The self-supported 2D Co3O4, a typical TMO, exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity and stability in the oxygen evolution reaction surpassing those of commercial precious metal RuO2 catalysts at high currents.

Catalytic Reactor: Hydrogenation of Ethylene
The hydrogenation of ethylene (C2H4) to ethane (C2H6) has often been studied as a model reduction reaction in characterizing new metal catalysts.1-2 While supported nickel is not the most active metal catalyst for this reaction, it is active enough that reaction can take place at < 200°C.
The reaction typically involves adsorbed, dissociated hydrogen (H2)...
