Investigation on the Role of Pd, Pt, Rh in Methane Abatement for Heavy Duty Applications

Oliver Kröcher, Davide Ferri, Moyu Wang

Methane abatement remains a challenge in aftertreatment systems of natural gas engines, currently under discussion in combination with synthetic methane. In this study, Pt/Rh and Pd/Rh-based three-way catalysts are investigated under various transient cond ...

Strengthening mechanisms in dilute and random solid solution high-entropy BCC alloys

Alireza Ghafarollahi

Tuning the mechanical properties of metals, including strength, through adjusting the type and/or concentration of added solute elements, has been recognized as an effective way to design and produce materials with desired or optimized mechanical propertie ...

Emission reduction by targeted transient operations in three-way catalysts for heavy-duty natural gas applications

Moyu Wang

To curb the severe effects of climate change, our society needs to radically reduce its CO2 footprint. For the heavy-duty sector, where electrification is difficult, alternative fuels can be the solution. Methane-fueled engines have lower energy-specific C ...

Additive manufacturing of a precious bulk metallic glass

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Güven Kurtuldu, Antonia Neels, Navid Sohrabi, Annapaola Parrilli

For the first time, a high-density amorphous and crack-free bulk metallic glass (BMG) based on a precious metal (PdCuNiP) was produced via additive manufacturing (AM). Laser powder-bed fusion (LPBF) was used for the fabrication of the samples, and led to a ...

Noble Metal Nanoparticles Stabilized by Hyper-Cross-Linked Polystyrene as Effective Catalysts in Hydrogenation of Arenes

Lioubov Kiwi

This work is addressing the arenes' hydrogenation-the processes of high importance for petrochemical, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. Noble metal (Pd, Pt, Ru) nanoparticles (NPs) stabilized in hyper-cross-linked polystyrene (HPS) were shown to be a ...

Intrinsic luminescence blinking from plasmonic nanojunctions

Tobias Kippenberg, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland, Giulia Tagliabue, Magalí Alejandra Lingenfelder, Sachin Suresh Verlekar, Wen Chen, Karla Banjac, Aqeel Ahmed, Philippe Andreas Rölli

Plasmonic nanojunctions, consisting of adjacent metal structures with nanometre gaps, can support localised plasmon resonances that boost light matter interactions and concentrate electromagnetic fields at the nanoscale. In this regime, the optical respons ...

Anchoring single platinum atoms onto nickel nanoparticles affords highly selective catalysts for lignin conversion

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Zhaofu Fei, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Ulf Anders Hagfeldt, Jun Li, Lichen Bai, Linfeng Pan, Lu Chen, Yun Tong

Due to the highly complex polyphenolic structure of lignin, depolymerization without a prior chemical treatment is challenging, and new catalysts are required. Atomically dispersed catalysts are able to maximize the atomic efficiency of noble metals, simul ...
