“Control of the interfacial wettability to synthesize highly dispersed PtPd nanocrystals for efficient oxygen reduction reaction”. Wei H, Hu Z-Y, Xiao Y-X, Tian G, Ying J, Van Tendeloo G, Janiak C, Yang X-Y, Su B-L, Chemistry: an Asian journal 13, 1119 (2018). http://doi.org/10.1002/ASIA.201800191
Abstract: Highly dispersed PtPd bimetallic nanocrystals with enhanced catalytic activity and stability were prepared by adjusting the interfacial wettability of the reaction solution on a commercial carbon support. This approach holds great promise for the development of high-performance and low-cost catalysts for practical applications.

“Hierarchical MoS2@TiO2 heterojunctions for enhanced photocatalytic performance and electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution”. Dong Y, Chen S-Y, Lu Y, Xiao Y-X, Hu J, Wu S-M, Deng Z, Tian G, Chang G-G, Li J, Lenaerts S, Janiak C, Yang X-Y, Su B-L, Chemistry: an Asian journal 13, 1609 (2018). http://doi.org/10.1002/ASIA.201800359
Abstract: Hierarchical MoS2@TiO2 heterojunctions were synthesized through a one-step hydrothermal method by using protonic titanate nanosheets as the precursor. The TiO2 nanosheets prevent the aggregation of MoS2 and promote the carrier transfer efficiency, and thus enhance the photocatalytic and electrocatalytic activity of the nanostructured MoS2. The obtained MoS2@TiO2 has significantly enhanced photocatalytic activity in the degradation of rhodamineB (over 5.2times compared with pure MoS2) and acetone (over 2.8times compared with pure MoS2). MoS2@TiO2 is also beneficial for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution (26times compared with pure MoS2, based on the cathodic current density). This work offers a promising way to prevent the self-aggregation of MoS2 and provides a new insight for the design of heterojunctions for materials with lattice mismatches.
