Ce
+ Fe
during cooling. Herein, the redox dynamics of cerium ions in soda-lime glass melts during model industrial cooling processes (from 1523 K at 20 K
min
) were investigated using in situ time-resolved Ce K-edge dispersive X-ray absorption fine-structure (DXAFS) spectroscopy. To evaluate the effect of the iron concentration, three soda-lime glass samples containing 2 mass% CeO
were examined: Fe-free, Fe-05 (0.5 mass% Fe
O
), and Fe-20 (2.0 mass% Fe
O
). Above 1383 K, the Ce
/total Ce ratio remained stable for all samples, showing no significant change during cooling. Below 1383 K, the ratio decreased for the Fe-free glass, indicating the oxidation of Ce
ions, and increased for the Fe-containing glass owing to the reduction of Ce
ions. The temperature dependence of the redox change (
Ce redox) showed Fe-dependent behavior: Fe-20 exhibited more pronounced Ce
reduction above 1200 K, while Fe-05 showed accelerated changes mainly below approximately 1100 K. These results indicate that cerium oxidation in Fe-free glass is strongly influenced by oxygen transport limitations, while cerium reduction is closely associated with availability of Fe
ions, providing quantitative insights into the control of Ce-based decolorization during industrial cooling.

We developed silver (Ag)-immobilized fabrics via radiation-induced graft polymerization and tested their activity against SARS-CoV-2. The fabrics reduced 40,000 viral particles to below detection within one hour, showed no Ag leaching after 24 h in water, and retained complete antiviral performance after one year of storage. These findings demonstrate the long-term stability and strong potential of Ag-immobilized fabrics for industrial use in protective equipment.

燃料電池の開発は二酸化炭素発生抑制のためにも重要な研究課題である。中でも電極反応における酸素還元反応は、電池全体の律速過程であることから、詳しい理解が求められる。高分解能X線吸収分光法を適用し、電極反応の「その場」観察を行うことで、炭素担持白金微粒子(Pt/C)電極触媒に対して表面吸着種の電位依存観測を実施した。その結果、これまで実触媒では同定されていなかった、酸素還元反応の反応中間体としての分子状酸素吸着種の存在を、酸性環境下でもアルカリ性環境下でも見出し、酸素還元反応の理解を一歩進めることができた。

被引用回数:0 パーセンタイル:0.00(Chemistry, Physical)Understanding how compositional complexity influences electrocatalytic kinetics remains a major challenge in the design of multicomponent materials. The multifaceted interactions between constituent elements are able to obscure the factors governing kinetics of electrode processes. Here, we introduce a small compositional change to modulate the rate-determining step of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) by tuning the binding energies of key intermediates. We combine advanced characterization, including
electrochemical X-ray absorption spectroscopy, with first-principles calculations to demonstrate that the drastic enhancement in OER activity of MnFeNi-based materials is driven by synergistic interactions among the constituent elements. This enhancement stems from targeted modulation of intrinsic reaction pathways, shifting the rate-determining step via controlled stabilization of key intermediates. Our findings introduce a clear viewpoint for understanding how compositional tuning governs kinetics in complex electrocatalytic systems, offering new design principles for next-generation electrochemical materials.

. Although all the parent ilmenite-type compounds exhibit triclinic (

The temperature dependence of the resistivity below room temperature follows a variable-range hopping conduction mechanism, suggesting the presence of short-range V-V dimer ordering. Magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity measurements revealed multi-step spin-glass transitions. This study demonstrates that a high-entropy composition hinders electronic and magnetic long-range ordering due to severe lattice distortions and competition between magnetic exchange interactions.

The development of active, long-lived methanol synthesis catalysts can be expedited by thoroughly understanding the operating mechanisms of promoter additives. SiO
serves as an effective support and promoter for Cu/ZnO-type methanol synthesis catalysts; however, it has not been studied as extensively as the industrially predominant Al

O
, despite being similarly potent. Therefore, we conducted X-ray absorption fine structure studies to probe the effects of incorporating Al
O
and SiO
additives into Cu/ZnO-based heterogeneous catalysts. The results revealed that the additive elements primarily affected the ability of the Zn species to generate oxygen vacancies by distorting the local structure around element-doped ZnO and that the number of oxygen vacancies correlated to the catalytic activity. Additionally, the oxygen vacancies in ZnO in the Al/Si-incorporated catalysts diminished under catalytic reaction conditions, thereby providing information on the deactivation of catalytic reactions. Our findings can facilitate the development of highly active industrial-grade methanol synthesis catalysts.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:23.08(Chemistry, Physical)The safe removal, transportation, and long-term storage of fuel debris in the decommissioning of Fukushima Daiichi is the biggest challenge facing Japan. In the nuclear power field, passive autocatalytic recombiners (PARs) have become established as a technology to prevent hydrogen explosions inside the containment vessel. To utilize PAR as a measure to reduce the concentration of hydrogen generated in the fuel debris storage canister, which is currently an issue, it is required to perform in a sealed environment with high doses of radiation, low temperature, and high humidity, and there are many challenges different from conventional PAR. A honeycomb-shaped catalyst based on automotive catalyst technology has been newly designed as a PAR, and research has been conducted to solve unique problems such as high dose radiation, low temperature, high humidity, coexistence of hydrogen and low oxygen, and catalyst poisons. This paper summarizes the challenges of hydrogen generation in a sealed container, the results of research, and a guide to how to use the PAR for fuel debris storage canisters.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:23.08(Chemistry, Physical)Global efforts are being made to decarbonize the energy sector. Liquefied (cryogenic) hydrogen is suitable for large-scale storage and transportation due to its high storage density, so it is likely to play a fundamental role in the future hydrogen economy. The STACY project, "Towards the Safe Storage and Transport of Cryogenic Hydrogen", is investigating safety aspects of liquid hydrogen in order to overcome potential safety risks. Research is being conducted into passive autocatalytic recombiners using cutting-edge catalyst technology to enable them to be used in conditions where liquid hydrogen escapes, evaporates and forms a cold (
50
C) explosive gas mixture with the ambient air. To this end, the crystal structure of the catalyst was designed at the atomic level, an actual catalyst was prototyped, and repeated tests were carried out on a laboratory scale and in a large reaction vessel. Progress has been made in developing catalysts that can oxidize hydrogen even at very low temperatures, high expansion, and low-oxygen environments, are resistant to catalyst poisons, and can prevent spontaneous unintended ignition. The tested catalyst technologies use different carrier materials (alumina and ceria) to control the surface state of precious metals and suppress hydrogen ignition through a multilevel configuration.

On-board diagnosis (OBD) of gasoline vehicle emissions is detected by measuring the fluctuations of the rear oxygen sensor due to the time-dependent deterioration of the oxygen storage capacity (OSC) contained in the automotive catalyst materials. To detect OBD in various driving modes of automobiles with an order of magnitude higher accuracy than before, it is essential to understand the OSC mechanism based on fundamental science. In this study, time-resolved dispersive X-ray absorption fine structure (DXAFS) using synchrotron radiation was used to carry out a detailed analysis not only of the OSC of ceria-based complex oxides, which had previously been roughly understood, but also of how differences in design parameters such as the type of precious metals, reducing gases (CO and H
), detection temperatures, and mileages (degree of deteriorations) affect the OSC rate in a fluctuating redox atmosphere. A fundamental characteristic was clearly demonstrated in ceria-based complex oxides: the oxygen release rate accompanying the generation of oxygen vacancies is overwhelmingly slower than the oxygen storage rate that restores the crystal structure. Another interesting result was revealed: when precious metals are supported, a competitive reaction occurs between the precious metal and the ceria-based complex oxide in the release/storage of oxygen, and the change in cerium valence from tetravalent to trivalent actually slows down. Furthermore, it was proven that CZY is more durable than CZ in terms of both OSC rate and amount. In this way, the basic scientific properties of ceria-based complex oxides, which are necessary for designing OBD logic, have been clarified.

In order to comply with the tightening of global regulations on automobile exhaust gas, further improvements to exhaust gas control catalysts and upgrades to on-board diagnostics (OBD) systems must be made. Currently, oxygen storage capacity (OSC) is monitored by front and rear sensors before and after the catalyst, and deterioration is judged by a decrease in OSC, but it is possible that catalyst deterioration may cause the rear sensor to detect gas that has not been sufficiently purified. It is important to observe the activity changes when the catalyst deteriorates in more detail and to gain a deeper understanding of the catalyst mechanism in order to create guidelines for future catalyst development. In this study, we used a
-TG (micro thermogravimetric balance) to analyze in detail how differences in design parameters such as the type of precious metal, detection temperature, and mileage (degree of deterioration) affect the OSC rate in addition to the OSC of the ceria-based composite oxide of the entire catalyst. It was found that CZY has better durability in terms of both OSC rate and amount than CZ. Furthermore, by comparing the results of experiments using time-resolved dispersive X-ray absorption fine structure (DXAFS) using synchrotron radiation, the reduction behavior of ceria was analyzed in more detail.

The amounts of Fe
and Fe
present in glass are important indicators of its optical properties because even small amounts have significant effects. However, it is challenging to use wet chemical analysis to determine the concentration and the ratio of Fe
and Fe
in glass when it contains Sn because of the redox reaction between Sn
and Fe
in the glass decomposition solution. A two-step approach was tested to determine the concentrations of Fe
and Fe
in a glass decomposition solution in the presence of Sn
. In the first step, the redox reaction between Sn
and Fe
was suppressed by increased pH. In the second step, Sn
was removed from the glass decomposition solution by solvent extraction. To understand the kinetics of the redox reaction between Sn
and Fe
, time-resolved dispersive X-ray absorption fine structure and ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy (UV-vis) were used with standard chloride solutions of Sn and Fe in respective valences. We found that lowering the acid concentration suppressed redox reactions. The partitioning behaviors of Sn
, Sn
, Fe
, and Fe
by bis(2-ethylhexyl) hydrogen phosphate (D2EHPA) as an extractant in
-dodecane were investigated to see the removal ability of Sn
from the glass decomposition solution. As a result, D2EHPA in
-dodecane could extract Sn
, Sn
, and Fe
into the organic phase, and Fe
remained in the aqueous phase. The simultaneous removal of Sn
and Sn
and the separation of Fe
and Fe
became possible. This method can potentially apply to the rapid analysis of the concentration of Fe
and Fe
in a glass containing tin oxide.

-orbital late transition metals are the most used and highly desired catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) but are prone to quick oxidative dissolution, leading to poor durability. We first report that FeCoNiCu multielemental alloy nanoparticles (MEANPs) can be stabilized with only 0.3 at.%Pd, a 4
-orbital element. Although pure Pd is known for extremely poor OER activity and durability, Pd-FeCoNiCu sustains 1000 h at 10 mA cm
. In an accelerating durability test (ADT) at 100 mA cm
, it exhibits a mere 8.9 mV increase over 25 h with a degradation rate of 0.356 mVh
, which is 1/350th that of FeCoNiCu (125 mVh
) and among the most stable OER catalysts reported so far. Aberration-corrected HAADF-STEM and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) reveal that atomically dispersed Pd atoms, surrounded by Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu atoms, contributed to a more delocalized electronic structure and stronger bonding via strong

hybridization and the vibronic coupling induced by atomic displacement. The altered local density of states (LDOS) of Fe, Co, Ni, and Cu mitigates the oxidation of FeCoNiCu in OER by over 50%, quantified by hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES), making the combination of these five dissoluble elements a durable catalyst.

/(Ce,Zr)O
), which contains a redox-active metal of Ce (Ce(III/IV)) and is of particular importance in nuclear industry. The solid phases of the solid-solution were comprehensively characterised by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) with the Rietveld analysis and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) with factor analysis, indicating that the solid-solution is primarily composed of tetragonal-(Zr,Ce)O
and cubic-(Ce,Zr)O
. Water immersion of the solid-solution leads to the dissolution of the solid phase at the solid-liquid interface. The addition of a reductant to the system reduces Ce(IV) in the solid-solution to -(III) at the surface, promoting the dissolution of Ce from the solid-solution phase. The release of Ce from the solid-solution also enriches the Zr content in the remaining solid-solution phase at the surface to be more insoluble.

In this work, using in-situ analyzing techniques, in-situ time-domain evolution of phases along temperature and time was obtained to understand high-temperature behavior. Ni

The phase-separation transformation mechanism via different phase separation scheme (homogeneous

被引用回数:23 パーセンタイル:89.54(Chemistry, Physical)A strategic approach has been proposed for designing robust, high-performing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts tailored for saline water splitting. By employing a density functional theory (DFT)-based computational screening process, a set of promising dopants were identified from a range of 26 3d to 5d transition metals, with the aim of enhancing the activity and saline water resilience of the catalysts. The screening methodology was 3-fold, encompassing evaluations of OER energetics, chlorine evolution reaction (ClER) energetics, and chloride-corrosion energetics. The screening led to the selection of Sc as a promising dopant, which substantially elevated the performance of the NiFeOOH catalysts. This improvement was validated by an 87 mV decrease in OER overpotential at 100 mA/cm
and a 100 h stability test under 1 M KOH + 0.5 M NaCl conditions. This study contributes to the understanding of the alkaline ClER and chloride-corrosion mechanisms, providing insights into catalyst behavior under saline conditions.

被引用回数:93 パーセンタイル:99.01(Multidisciplinary Sciences)The effective flow of electrons through bulk electrodes is crucial for achieving high-performance batteries, although the poor conductivity of homocyclic sulfur molecules results in high barriers against the passage of electrons through electrode structures. This phenomenon causes incomplete reactions and the formation of metastable products. To enhance the performance of the electrode, it is important to place substitutable electrification units to accelerate the cleavage of sulfur molecules and increase the selectivity of stable products during charging and discharging. Herein, we develop a single-atom-charging strategy to address the electron transport issues in bulk sulfur electrodes. The establishment of the synergistic interaction between the adsorption model and electronic transfer helps us achieve a high level of selectivity towards the desirable short-chain sodium polysulfides during the practical battery test. These finding indicates that the atomic manganese sites have an enhanced ability to capture and donate electrons. Additionally, the charge transfer process facilitates the rearrangement of sodium ions, thereby accelerating the kinetics of the sodium ions through the electrostatic force. These combined effects improve pathway selectivity and conversion to stable products during the redox process, leading to superior electrochemical performance for room temperature sodium-sulfur batteries.
