The Effect of Organic Acid Modification on the Pore Structure and Fractal Features of 1/3 Coking Coal by Jiafeng Fan, Feng Cai

“…Following treatment with organic acids, the coal samples exhibit an increase in surface fractal dimension, a reduction in spatial fractal dimension, a decline in micropore volume proportion, and a rise in the proportions of transitional and mesopore volumes, and the structure of the hydroxyl group and oxygen-containing functional group decreased. This indicates that treating coal samples with organic acids enhances their pore structure and chemical structure. …”

Boosting C-C Coupling for Electrochemical CO₂ Reduction over Novel Cu-Cubic Catalysts with an Amorphous Shell by Hanlin Wang, Tian Wang, Gaigai Dong, Linbo Zhang, Fan Pan, Yunqing Zhu

“…In this study, we employed sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS) as a surfactant in the electrodeposition method to synthesize copper cubes encapsulated with an amorphous shell (100 nm–250 nm) containing numerous defect sites on its surface. The electrocatalytic CO₂ reduction reactions in an H-type reactor showed that, compared to ED-Cu synthesized without additives, AS (amorphous shell)-Cu-5 exhibited a Faradaic efficiency value for ethylene that was 1.7 times greater than that of ED-Cu while significantly decreasing the Faradaic efficiency of hydrogen production. …”
