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 ...

Selective hydrogenation of lignin-derived compounds under mild conditions

Paul Joseph Dyson, Gabor Laurenczy, Antoine Philippe Van Muyden, Lu Chen, Xinjiang Cui

A key challenge in the production of lignin-derived chemicals is to reduce the energy intensive processes used in their production. Here, we show that well-defined Rh nanoparticles dispersed in sub-micrometer size carbon hollow spheres, are able to hydroge ...
