Abstract
The strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) in supported catalysts plays a dominant role in catalytic degradation, upgrading, and remanufacturing of environmental pollutants. Previous studies have shown that SMSI is crucial in supported catalysts' activity and stability. However, for redox reactions catalyzed in environmental catalysis, the enhancement mechanism of SMSI-induced oxygen vacancy and electron transfer needs to be clarified. Additionally, the precise control of SMSI interface sites remains to be fully understood. Here we provide a systematic review of SMSI's catalytic mechanisms and control strategies in purifying gaseous pollutants, treating organic wastewater, and valorizing biomass solid waste. We explore the adsorption and activation mechanisms of SMSI in redox reactions by examining interfacial electron transfer, interfacial oxygen vacancy, and interfacial acidic sites. Furthermore, we develop a precise regulation strategy of SMSI from systematical perspectives of interface effect, crystal facet effect, size effect, guest ion doping, and modification effect. Importantly, we point out the drawbacks and breakthrough directions for SMSI regulation in environmental catalysis, including partial encapsulation strategy, size optimization strategy, interface oxygen vacancy strategy, and multi-component strategy. This review article provides the potential applications of SMSI and offers guidance for its controlled regulation in environmental catalysis.

Abstract
Breaking the trade-off between activity and stability of supported metal catalysts has been a long-standing challenge in catalysis, especially for metal nanoparticles (NPs) with high hydrogenation activity but poor stability. Herein, we report a porous poly(divinylbenzene) polymer-supported Pd NP catalyst (Pd/PDVB) with both high activity and excellent stability for the solvent-free hydrogenation of nitrobenzene, even at ambient temperature (25 °C) and H2 pressure (0.1 MPa). Pd/PDVB gave a turnover frequency as high as 22,632 h-1 at 70 °C and 0.4 MPa, exceeding 5556 h-1 of the classical Pd/C catalyst under equivalent conditions. Mechanistic studies reveal that the polymer support benefits the desorption of the aniline product from the Pd surface, which is crucial for rapid hydrogenation under solvent-free conditions. In addition, the polymer support in Pd/PDVB efficiently hindered Pd leaching, resulting in good stability.

Abstract
The interaction of catalyst particles with reducible support materials can drastically change their reactivity. On rutile TiO2, processes like particle encapsulation (caused by the "strong metal-support interaction", SMSI) have long been known to depend on the initial reduction state of the oxide. Despite this knowledge, sample stoichiometry has rarely been controlled in a reproducible manner in the surface science literature. Here, we use scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) to explore systematically how near-ambient pressures (0.1-1.0 mbar) of O2, H2, CO and CO2 affect blank and Pt-loaded rutile TiO2(110) surfaces of different bulk stoichiometry at 600 K. To this end, we present preparation recipes that result in a sample stoichiometry always converging back to the same value, which allows us to use the same samples with constant reduction state over hundreds of preparation cycles. Comparing a highly reduced and a near-stoichiometric TiO2 sample, we find that surface reactivity to all four gasses differs even without Pt loading. Most surprisingly, we find that the highly reduced TiO2(110) is oxidized by CO2, but this reaction is completely inhibited on the near-stoichiometric sample. Pt nanoparticles, in turn, become encapsulated after vacuum annealing on the reduced, but not on the near-stoichiometric sample. Encapsulation on the near-stoichiometric sample is achieved only after exposing it to 0.1 mbar H2 at 600 K. Interestingly, we also see a further modification of the already encapsulated particles on the reduced sample under the same conditions, such that they become embedded deeper in the TiO2(110) surface.

Abstract
The development of heterogeneous supported nanocatalysts with a high kinetics combined with low cost is off importance but remains still challenged for hydrazine hydrate served as a promising hydrogen storage material. Herein, by virtue of surficial functional groups, ultrafine NiRh NPs were monodispersed on the two-dimensional V2C surface via a conventional wet chemical co-reduction. The optimized NiRh/V2C system demonstrates an excellent catalytic performance toward selectively catalyzing dehydrogenation of hydrazine hydrate, affording 100% H2 selectivity with the turnover frequency (TOF) value of 987.5 h-1 at 323 K. Such an enhancement is mainly attributed to synergistic effect of nanosystem, which will optimize local surface energy and promote electron transfer in NiRh/V2C system, thereby improving the kinetic selectivity of catalytic hydrazine hydrate decomposition. This work has provided a facile strategy for developing nanocatalysts with high kinetics that could enable huge industrial applications in the future.

Abstract
The cooperation of multiple catalytic components is a powerful tool for intermolecular bond formation, specifically, cross-coupling reactions. Supported metal catalysts have interfacial sites between metal nanoparticles and their supports where multiple catalytic elements can work in cooperation to efficiently promote intermolecular reactions. Hence, the establishment of novel guidelines for designing active interfacial sites of supported metal catalysts is indispensable for heterogeneous catalysts which enable efficient cross-coupling reactions. In this article, we performed kinetic and theoretical studies to elucidate the effect of metal-support cooperation for the borylation of C-O bonds by supported gold catalysts and revealed that the Lewis acid density of the supports determined the number of active sites at which metal nanoparticles (NPs) and Lewis acid at the surface of the supports work in cooperation. Furthermore, DFT calculations revealed that strong adsorption of diborons at the interface between Au NPs and supports and a decrease in the LUMO level of adsorbed diboron were responsible for efficient C-O bond borylation. Supported Au catalysts with the optimized metal-metal oxide cooperation sites, namely, Au/α-Fe2O3 catalyst, showed excellent activity for C-O bond borylation, and also enabled the synthesis of organoboron compounds by using continuous-flow reactions. Furthermore, Au/α-Fe2O3 showed high activity for direct C-N bond borylation without the transformation of amino groups to ammonium cations. The results described herein suggest that the optimization of metal-metal oxide cooperation is beneficial for taking full advantage of the potential performance of supported metal catalysts for intermolecular reactions.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) has drawn much attention in heterogeneous catalysts due to its stable and excellent catalytic efficiency. However, construction of high-performance oxide-capsulated metal nanostructures meets great challenge in materials thermodynamic compatibility. In this work, dynamically controlled formation of oxide-capsulated metal nanoparticles (NPs) structures is demonstrated by ultrafast laser plasmonic nanowelding. Under the strong localized electromagnetic field interaction, metal (Au) NPs are dragged by an optical force toward oxide NPs (TiO2). Intense energy is simultaneously injected into this heterojunction area, where TiO2 is precisely ablated. With the embedding of metal into oxide, optical force on Au gradually turned from attractive to repulsive due to the varied metal-dielectric environment. Meanwhile, local ablated oxides are redeposited on Au NP. Upon the whole coverage of metal NP, the implantation behavior of metal NP is stopped, resulting in a controlled metal-oxide eccentric structure with capsulated oxide layer thickness ≈0.72-1.30 nm. These oxide-capsulated metal NPs structures can preserve their configurations even after thermal annealing in air at 600 °C for 10 min. This ultrafast laser plasmonic nanowelding can also extend to oxide-capsulated metal nanostructure fabrication with broad materials combinations (e.g., Au/ZnO, Au/MgO, etc.), which shows great potential in designing/constructing nanoscale high-performance catalysts.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) is widely proposed as a key factor in tuning catalytic performances. Herein, the classical SMSI between Au nanoparticles (NPs) and BiVO4 (BVO) supports (Au/BVO-SMSI) is discovered and used innovatively for photoelectrochemical (PEC) water splitting. Owing to the SMSI, the electrons transfer from V4+ to Au NPs, leading to the formation of electron-rich Au species (Auδ-) and strong electronic interaction (i.e., Auδ--Ov-V4+), which readily contributes to extract photogenerated holes and promote charge separation. Benefitted from the SMSI effect, the as-prepared Au/BVO-SMSI photoanode exhibits a superior photocurrent density of 6.25 mA cm-2 at 1.23 V versus the reversible hydrogen electrode after the deposition of FeOOH/NiOOH cocatalysts. This work provides a pioneering view for extending SMSI effect to bimetal oxide supports for PEC water splitting, and guides the interfacial electronic and geometric structure modulation of photoanodes consisting of metal NPs and reducible oxides for improved solar energy conversion efficiency.

Abstract
The catalytic performance of supported metal catalysts is closely related to their structure. While Pt-based catalysts are widely used in many catalytic reactions because of their exceptional intrinsic activity, they tend to deactivate in high-temperature reactions, requiring a tedious and expensive regeneration process. The strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) is a promising strategy to improve the stability of supported metal nanoparticles, but often at the price of the activity due to either the coverage of the active sites by support overlay and/or the too-strong metal-support bonding. Herein, we newly constructed a supported Pt cluster catalyst by introducing FeOx into hydroxyapatite (HAP) support to fine-tune the SMSIs. The catalyst exhibited not only high catalytic activity but also sintering resistance, without deactivation in a 100 h test for catalytic CO oxidation. Detailed characterizations reveal that FeOx introduced into HAP weaken the strong covalent metal-support interaction (CMSI) between Pt and FeOx while simultaneously inhibiting the oxidative strong metal-support interaction (OMSI) between Pt and HAP, giving rise to both high activity and thermal stability of the supported Pt clusters.

Abstract
This work presented the influence of metal oxides as the support for silver-supported catalysts on the catalytic oxidation of diesel particulate matter (DPM). The supports selected to be used in this work were CeO2 (reducible), ZnO (semiconductor), TiO2 (reducible and semiconductor), and Al2O3 (acidic). The properties of the synthesized catalysts were investigated using XRD, TEM, H2-TPR, and XPS techniques. The DPM oxidation activity was performed using the TGA method. Different states of silver (e.g., Ag° and Ag+) were formed with different concentrations and affected the performance of the DPM oxidation. Ag2O and lattice oxygen, which were mainly generated by Ag/ZnO and Ag/CeO2, were responsible for combusting the VOCs. The metallic silver (Ag°) formed primarily on Ag/Al2O3 and Ag/TiO2 was the main component promoting soot combustion. Contact between the catalyst and DPM had a minor effect on VOC oxidation but significantly affected the soot oxidation activity.

Abstract
The structure of catalysts determines the performance of catalytic processes. Intrinsically, the electronic and geometric structures influence the interaction between active species and the surface of the catalyst, which subsequently regulates the adsorption, reaction, and desorption behaviors. In recent decades, the development of catalysts with complex structures, including bulk, interfacial, encapsulated, and atomically dispersed structures, can potentially affect the electronic and geometric structures of catalysts and lead to further control of the transport and reaction of molecules. This review describes comprehensive understandings on the influence of electronic and geometric properties and complex catalyst structures on the performance of relevant heterogeneous catalytic processes, especially for the transport and reaction over structured catalysts for the conversions of light alkanes and small molecules. The recent research progress of the electronic and geometric properties over the active sites, specifically for theoretical descriptors developed in the recent decades, is discussed at the atomic level. The designs and properties of catalysts with specific structures are summarized. The transport phenomena and reactions over structured catalysts for the conversions of light alkanes and small molecules are analyzed. At the end of this review, we present our perspectives on the challenges for the further development of structured catalysts and heterogeneous catalytic processes.

Abstract
Metal nanoparticle (NP) sintering is a major cause of catalyst deactivation, as NP growth reduces the surface area available for reaction. A promising route to halt sintering is to deposit a protective overcoat on the catalyst surface, followed by annealing to generate overlayer porosity for gas transport to the NPs. Yet, such a combined deposition-annealing approach lacks structural control over the cracked protection layer and the number of NP surface atoms available for reaction. Herein, we exploit the tailoring capabilities of atomic layer deposition (ALD) to deposit MgO overcoats on archetypal Pt NP catalysts with thicknesses ranging from sub-monolayers to nm-range thin films. Two different ALD processes are studied for the growth of MgO overcoats on Pt NPs anchored on a SiO2 support, using Mg(EtCp)2 and H2O, and Mg(TMHD)2 and O3, respectively. Spectroscopic ellipsometry and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy measurements reveal significant growth on both SiO2 and Pt for the former process, while the latter exhibits a drastically lower growth per cycle with an initial chemical selectivity towards Pt. These differences in MgO growth characteristics have implications for the availability of uncoated Pt surface atoms at different stages of the ALD process, as probed by low energy ion scattering, and for the sintering behavior during O2 annealing, as monitored in situ with grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (in situ GISAXS). The Mg(TMHD)2-O3 ALD process enables exquisite coverage control allowing a balance between physically blocking the Pt surface to prevent sintering and keeping Pt surface atoms free for reaction. This approach avoids the need for post-annealing, hence also safeguarding the structural integrity of the as-deposited overcoat.

Abstract
Fabricating optimum surface structures represents an attractive approach for synthesizing supported catalysts with high activity and specific selectivity. New active sites could be flexibly constructed via the strong metal-support interaction under the redox condition. Herein, we demonstrated the formation of a new Rh-Si surface on a silica-modified carbon nanotube supported Rh catalyst under the high-temperature reduction condition as well as a thin amorphous silica coating layer and weak chemisorption toward the CO molecule. The electronic interactions between Rh and Si, along with the particular structure, guarantee desirable catalytic performance for the semihydrogenation of phenylacetylene under mild conditions. This facile approach might be extensively used in constructing new active sites with robust activity and specific selectivity in diverse heterogeneous catalysis systems.

Abstract
Electrocatalytic CO2 -to-syngas (gaseous mixture of CO and H2 ) is a promising way to curb excessive CO2 emission and the greenhouse gas effect. Herein, we present a bimetallic AuZn@ZnO (AuZn/ZnO) catalyst with high efficiency and durability for the electrocatalytic reduction of CO2 and H2 O, which enables a high Faradaic efficiency of 66.4 % for CO and 26.5 % for H2 and 3 h stability of CO2 -to-syngas at -0.9 V vs. the reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). The CO/H2 ratios show a wide range from 0.25 to 2.50 over a narrow potential window (-0.7 V to -1.1 V vs. RHE). In situ attenuated total reflection surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy combined with density functional theory calculations reveals that the bimetallic synergistic effect between Au and Zn sites lowers the activation energy barrier of CO2 molecules and facilitates electronic transfer, further highlighting the potential to control CO/H2 ratios for efficient syngas production using the coexisting Au sites and Zn sites.

Abstract
Exfoliated M-Al layered double hydroxide (M-Al LDH; M = Mg, Co, Ni, and Zn) nanosheets were adsorbed on Au/SiO2 and calcined to transform LDH into mixed metal oxides (MMOs) and yield Au/SiO2 coated with a thin MMO overlayer. These catalysts showed a higher catalytic activity than pristine Au/SiO2. In particular, the 50% CO conversion temperature decreased by more than 250 °C for Co-Al MMO-coated Au/SiO2. In contrast, the deposition of CoAlOx on Au/SiO2 by impregnation or the deposition of Au on Co-Al MMO-coated SiO2 resulted in a worse catalytic activity. Moreover, the presence of a thick MMO overlayer decreased the catalytic activity, suggesting that the control of the overlayer thickness to less than 1 nm is a requisite for obtaining a high catalytic activity. Moreover, the thin Co-Al MMO overlayer on Au/SiO2 possessed abundant oxygen vacancies, which would play an important role in O2 activation, resulting in a highly active interface between Au and the defect-rich MMO on the Au NP surface. Finally, this can be applied to Pt/SiO2, and the obtained Co-Al MMO-coated Pt/SiO2 also exhibited a much improved catalytic activity for CO oxidation.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interactions (SMSIs) have emerged as a significant and cutting-edge area of research in heterogeneous catalysis. They play crucial roles in modifying the chemisorption properties, interfacial structure, and electronic characteristics of supported metals, thereby exerting a profound influence on the catalytic properties. This Perspective aims to provide a comprehensive summary of the latest advancements and insights into SMSIs, with a focus on state-of-the-art in situ/operando characterization techniques. This overview also identifies innovative designs and applications of new types of SMSI systems in catalytic chemistry and highlights their pivotal role in enhancing catalytic performance, selectivity, and stability in specific cases. Particularly notable is the discovery of SMSI between active metals and metal carbides, which opens up a new era in the field of SMSI. Additionally, the strong interactions between atomically dispersed metals and supports are discussed, with an emphasis on the electronic effects of the support. The chemical nature of SMSI and its underlying catalytic mechanisms are also elaborated upon. It is evident that SMSI modification has become a powerful tool for enhancing catalytic performance in various catalytic applications.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) has been extensively studied in heterogeneous catalysis because of its significance in stabilizing active metals and tuning catalytic performance, but the origin of SMSI is not fully revealed. Herein, by using Pt/CeO2 as a model catalyst, we report an embedding structure at the interface between Pt and (110) plane of CeO2, where Pt clusters (∼1.6 nm) are embedded into the lattice of ceria within 3-4 atomic layers. In contrast, this phenomenon is absent in the CeO2(100) support. This unique geometric structure, as an effective motivator, triggers more significant electron transfer from Pt clusters to CeO2(110) support accompanied by the formation of interfacial structure (Ptδ+-Ov-Ce3+), which plays a crucial role in stabilizing Pt nanoclusters. A comprehensive investigation based on experimental studies and theoretical calculations substantiates that the interfacial sites serve as the intrinsic active center toward water-gas shift reaction (WGSR), featuring a moderate strength CO activation adsorption and largely decreased energy barrier of H2O dissociation, accounting for the prominent catalytic activity of Pt/CeO2(110) (a reaction rate of 15.76 molCO gPt-1 h-1 and a turnover frequency value of 2.19 s-1 at 250 °C). In addition, the Pt/CeO2(110) catalyst shows a prominent durability within a 120 h time-on-stream test, far outperforming the Pt/CeO2(100) one, which demonstrates the advantages of this embedding structure for improving catalyst stability.

Abstract
Healed defects on photocatalysts surface and their interaction with plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) have attracted attention in H2 production process. In this study, surface oxygen vacancy (Vo ) defects are created on ZnO (Vo -ZnO) NPs by directly pyrolyzing zeolitic imidazolate framework. The surface defects on Vo -ZnO provide active sites for the diffusion of single Au atoms and as nucleation sites for the formation of Au NPs by the in situ photodeposition process. The electronically healed surface defects by single Au atoms help in the formation of a heterojunction between the ZnO and plasmonic Au NPs. The formed Au/Vo -Au:ZnO-4 heterojunction prolongs photoelectron lifetimes and increases donor charge density. Therefore, the optimized photocatalysts of Au/Vo -Au:ZnO-4 has 21.28 times higher H2 production rate than the pristine Vo -ZnO under UV-visible light in 0.35 m Na2 SO4 and 0.25 m Na2 SO3 . However in 0.35 m Na2 S and 0.25 m Na2 SO3 , the H2 production rate is 25.84 mmole h-1 g-1 . Furthermore, Au/Vo -Au:ZnO-4 shows visible light activity by generating hot carries via induced surface plasmonic effects. It has 48.58 times higher H2 production rate than pristine Vo -ZnO. Therefore, this study infers new insight for defect healing mediated preparation of Au/Vo -Au:ZnO heterojunction for efficient photocatalytic H2 production.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2024; 20:e2305122. [PMID: 37718443 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202305122] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/19/2023]
Abstract
Metal-support interaction (MSI) provides great possibilities to tune the activity, selectivity, and stability of heterogeneous catalysts. Herein, the Au/ZnO catalyst is prepared by commercial ZnO and chloroauric acid, and the structure evolution of the catalyst pretreated by H2 and O2 gas at varied temperature is investigated to provide mechanistic insights of MSI. It is found that the H2 treatment at 300 °C and above can induce the formation of both the ZnOx overlayer and bulk Au-Zn alloy. In contrast, the O2 treatment can form the ZnOx overlayer at 500 °C and above without the formation of Au-Zn alloy. It is also revealed that the ZnOx overlayer is dynamically stable (permeable), which can provide access for reactant molecules during the reaction process. And, the Au-Zn alloy can recover to Au and ZnO under the CO oxidation reaction condition, which can be deemed as a re-activation process that endows H2 -treated samples with the superior activity and stability.

Abstract
Discharging the gold-contained wastewater is an economic loss. In this work, a set of ZnO/WO3 was facile synthesized by hydrothermal method in order to recover gold from the industrial cyanide-based gold plating wastewater by photocatalytic process. Effect of ZnO contents coupled with WO3 was first explored. Then, effects of operating condition including initial pH of wastewater, type of hole scavenger, concentration of the best hole scavenger and photocatalyst dose were explored. A series of experimental results demonstrated that the ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite with 5 wt% ZnO (Z5.0/WO3) depicted the highest photocatalytic activity for gold recovery due to the synergetic effect of oxygen vacancies, a well-constructed ZnO/WO3 heterostructure and an appropriate band position alignment with respect to the redox potentials of [Au(CN)2]- and hole scavengers. Via this ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite, approximately 99.5% of gold ions was recovered within 5 h using light intensity of 3.57 mW/cm2, catalyst dose of 2.0 g/L, ethanol concentration of 20 vol% and initial pH of wastewater of 11.2. In addition, high stability and reusability were observed with the best nanocomposite even at the 5th reuse. This work provides the guidance and pave the way for designing the ZnO/WO3 nanocomposite for precious metal recovery from a real industrial wastewater.

Abstract
Supported metal catalysts are widely used for chemical conversion, in which construction of high density metal-oxide or oxide-metal interface is an important means to improve their reaction performance. Here, Cu@ZnOx encapsulation structure has been in situ constructed through gas-phase migration of Zn species from ZnO particles onto surface of Cu nanoparticles under CO2 hydrogenation atmosphere at 450 °C. The gas-phase deposition of Zn species onto the Cu surface and growth of ZnOx overlayer is self-limited under the high temperature and redox gas (CO2 /H2 ) conditions. Accordingly, high density ZnOx -Cu interface sites can be effectively tailored to have an enhanced activity in CO2 hydrogenation to methanol. This work reveals a new route for the construction of active oxide-metal interface and classic strong metal-support interaction state through gas-phase migration of support species induced by high temperature redox reaction atmosphere.

Abstract
Carbon-supported metal nanoparticles (NPs) comprise an important class of heterogeneous catalysts. The interaction between the metal and carbon support influences the overall material properties, viz., the catalytic performance. Herein we use in situ and ex situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in combination with in situ X-ray spectroscopy (XPS) to investigate the encapsulation of metallic iridium NPs by carbon in an Ir/C catalyst. Real-time atomic-scale imaging visualizes particle reshaping and increased graphitization of the carbon support upon heating of Ir/C in vacuum. According to in situ TEM results, carbon overcoating grows over Ir NPs during the heating process, starting from ca. 550 °C. With the carbon overlayers formed, no sintering and migration of Ir NPs is observed at 800 °C, yet the initial Ir NPs sinter at or below 550 °C, i.e., at a temperature associated with an incomplete particle encapsulation. The carbon overlayer corrugates when the temperature is decreased from 800 to 200 °C and this process is associated with the particle surface reconstruction and is reversible, such that the corrugated carbon overlayer can be smoothed out by increasing the temperature back to 800 °C. The catalytic performance (activity and stability) of the encapsulated Ir NPs in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is higher than that of the initial (nonencapsulated) state of Ir/C. Overall, this work highlights microscopic details of the currently understudied phenomenon of the carbon encapsulation of supported noble metal NPs and demonstrates additionally that the encapsulation by carbon is an effective measure for tuning the catalytic performance.

Abstract
The successful development of efficient and stable catalysts for 4-NP reduction reactions is beneficial to the environment and ecology. Fe3O4@Pt exhibits excellent catalytic performance for 4-NP reduction reaction due to the synergistic effect between Fe and Pt. But its structure and catalytic performance are extremely unstable. Here, we utilized the small-scale organic compound 2-hydroxyethylamine as surfactant to construct a stable composite nanomaterial. Then investigated the influence of monochromatic light (650 nm, 808 nm and 980 nm) and temperature on the kinetics of 4-NP reduction reaction by 2-hydroxyethylamine stabilized Fe3O4@Pt. The results indicate that both temperature and monochromatic light radiation can affect kinetic regulation. Increasing temperature can promote the catalytic rate, while monochromatic light radiation can induce agglomeration and inhibit the catalytic rate. This study opens up a new way for developing and regulating catalysts for heterogeneous catalysis reactions.

Abstract
Site-selective and partial decoration of supported metal nanoparticles (NPs) with transition metal oxides (e.g., FeOx ) can remarkably improve its catalytic performance and maintain the functions of the carrier. However, it is challenging to selectively deposit transition metal oxides on the metal NPs embedded in the mesopores of supporting matrix through conventional deposition method. Herein, a restricted in situ site-selective modification strategy utilizing poly(ethylene oxide)-block-polystyrene (PEO-b-PS) micellar nanoreactors is proposed to overcome such an obstacle. The PEO shell of PEO-b-PS micelles interacts with the hydrolyzed tungsten salts and silica precursors, while the hydrophobic organoplatinum complex and ferrocene are confined in the hydrophobic PS core. The thermal treatment leads to mesoporous SiO2 /WO3-x framework, and meanwhile FeOx nanolayers are in situ partially deposited on the supported Pt NPs due to the strong metal-support interaction between FeOx and Pt. The selective modification of Pt NPs with FeOx makes the Pt NPs present an electron-deficient state, which promotes the mobility of CO and activates the oxidation of CO. Therefore, mesoporous SiO2 /WO3-x -FeOx /Pt based gas sensors show a high sensitivity (31 ± 2 in 50 ppm of CO), excellent selectivity, and fast response time (3.6 s to 25 ppm) to CO gas at low operating temperature (66 °C, 74% relative humidity).

Abstract
Strong metal-support interaction (SMSI), which encompasses reversible encapsulation and de-encapsulation and modulation of surface adsorption properties, imposes great impacts on the performance of heterogeneous catalysts. Recent development of SMSI has surpassed the prototypical encapsulated Pt-TiO2 catalyst, affording a series of conceptually novel and practically advantageous catalytic systems. Here we provide our perspective on recent progress in nonclassical SMSIs for enhanced catalysis. Unravelling the structural complexity of SMSI necessitates the combination of multiple characterization techniques at different scales. Synthesis strategies leveraging chemical, photonic, and mechanochemical driving forces further expand the definition and application scope of SMSI. Exquisite structure engineering permits elucidation of the interface, entropy, and size effect on the geometric and electronic characteristics. Materials innovation places the atomically thin two-dimensional materials at the forefront of interfacial active site control. A broader space is awaiting exploration, where exploitation of metal-support interactions brings compelling catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability.

Abstract
In the context of the growing human demand for green secondary energy sources, proton-exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is necessary to meet the high-efficiency production of high-purity hydrogen required for proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The development of stable, efficient, and low-cost oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts is key to promoting the large-scale application of hydrogen production by PEMWE. At present, precious metals remain irreplaceable in acidic OER catalysis, and loading the support body with precious metal components is undoubtedly an effective strategy to reduce costs. In this review, we will discuss the unique role of common catalyst-support interactions such as Metal-Support Interactions (MSIs), Strong Metal-Support Interactions (SMSIs), Strong Oxide-Support Interactions (SOSIs), and Electron-Metal-Support Interactions (EMSIs) in modulating catalyst structure and performance, thereby promoting the development of high-performance, high-stability, low-cost noble metal-based acidic OER catalysts.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interactions (SMSI) represent a classic yet fast-growing area in catalysis research. The SMSI phenomenon results in the encapsulation and stabilization of metal nanoparticles (NPs) with the support material that significantly impacts the catalytic performance through regulation of the interfacial interactions. Engineering SMSI provides a promising approach to steer catalytic performance in various chemical processes, which serves as an effective tool to tackle energy and environmental challenges. Our Minireview covers characterization, theory, catalytic activity, dependence on the catalytic structure and inducing environment of SMSI phenomena. By providing an overview and outlook on the cutting-edge techniques in this multidisciplinary research field, we not only want to provide insights into the further exploitation of SMSI in catalysis, but we also hope to inspire rational designs and characterization in the broad field of material science and physical chemistry.

Abstract
Strong metal-support interactions characteristic of the encapsulation of metal particles by oxide overlayers have been widely observed on large metal nanoparticles, but scarcely occur on small nanoclusters (<2 nm) for which the metal-support interactions remain elusive. Herein, we study the structural evolution of Pt nanoclusters (1.5 nm) supported on anatase TiO2 upon high-temperature H2 reduction. The Pt nanoclusters start to partially evolve into a CsCl-type PtTi intermetallic compound when the reduction temperature reaches 400 °C. Upon 700 °C reduction, the PtTi nanoparticles are exclusively formed and grow epitaxially along the TiO2 (101) crystal faces. The thermodynamics of the formation of PtTi via migration of reduced Ti atoms into Pt cluster is unraveled by theoretical calculations. The thermally stable PtTi intermetallic compound, with single-atom Pt isolated by Ti, exhibits enhanced catalytic activity and promoted catalytic durability for CO oxidation.

Abstract
ConspectusHexagonal boron nitrides (h-BNs) are attractive two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials that consist of alternating B and N atoms and layered honeycomb-like structures similar to graphene. They have exhibited unique properties and promising application potentials in the field of energy storage and transformation. Recent advances in utilizing h-BN as a metal-free catalyst in the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane have triggered broad interests in exploring h-BN in catalysis. However, h-BN-based materials as robust nanocatalysts in heterogeneous catalysis are still underexplored because of the limited methodologies capable of affording h-BN with controllable crystallinity, abundant porosity, high purity, and defect engineering, which played important roles in tuning their catalytic performance. In this Account, our recent progress in addressing the above issues will be highlighted, including the synthesis of high-quality h-BN-based nanomaterials via both bottom-up and top-down pathways and their catalytic utilization as metal-free catalysts or as supports to tune the interfacial electronic properties on the metal nanoparticles (NPs). First, we will focus on the large-scale fabrication of h-BN nanosheets (h-BNNSs) with high crystallinity, improved surface area, satisfactory purity, and tunable defects. h-BN derived from the traditional approaches using boron trioxide and urea as the starting materials generally contains carbon/oxygen impurities and has low crystallinity. Several new strategies were developed to address the issues. Using bulk h-BN as the precursor via gas exfoliation in liquid nitrogen, single- or few-layered h-BNNS with abundant defects could be generated. Amorphous h-BN precursors could be converted to h-BN nanosheets with high crystallinity assisted by a magnesium metallic flux via a successive dissolution/precipitation/crystallization procedure. The as-fabricated h-BNNS featured high crystallinity and purity as well as abundant porosity. An ionothermal metathesis procedure was developed using inorganic molten salts (NaNH2 and NaBH4) as the precursors. The h-BN scaffolds could be produced on a large scale with high yield, and the as-afforded materials possessed high purity and crystallinity. Second, utilization of the as-prepared h-BN library as metal-free catalysts in dehydrogenation and hydrogenation reactions will be summarized, in which they exhibited enhanced catalytic activity over the counterparts from the previous synthesis method. Third, the interface modulation between metal NPs with the as-prepared defects' abundant h-BN support will be highlighted. The h-BN-based strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) nanocatalysts were constructed without involving reducible metal oxides via the ionothermal procedure we developed by deploying specific inorganic metal salts, acting as robust nanocatalysts in CO oxidation. Under conditions simulated for practical exhaust systems, promising catalytic efficiency together with high thermal stability and sintering resistance was achieved. Across all of these examples, unique insights into structures, defects, and interfaces that emerge from in-depth characterization through microscopy, spectroscopy, and diffraction will be highlighted.

Abstract
Solar spectrum and sensitivity of human eyes peak at green wavelength range of visible light, and the materials that can respond to a larger part of the visible spectrum are highly sought after. Two-dimensional graphene-like zinc oxide (gZnO) is a wide band gap semiconductor, but photogeneration of electron-hole pairs in it at visible wavelengths has not been achieved so far. Here, the sub-band gap excitation in 2D zinc oxide layers covered with gold nanoparticles is reported. The sub-band gap excitation and corresponding emission are correlated with oxygen interstitials introduced by AuNP deposition in the gZnO lattice. Attachment of AuNPs on gZnO also leads to increased electron availability at oxygen sites of the gZnO lattice, which translates into greater electron availability for sub-band gap excitation. The plasmonically enhanced trap level to conduction band transition constitutes sub-band gap excitation and manifests itself in local surface potential measurements carried out using a Kelvin probe force microscope.

Abstract
Nanocrystals are of great importance in material sciences and industry. Engineering nanocrystals with desired structures and properties is no doubt one of the most important challenges in the field, which requires deep insight into atomic-scale dynamics of nanocrystals during the process. The rapid developments of in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM), especially environmental TEM, reveal insights into nanocrystals to digest. According to the considerable progress based on in situ electron microscopy, a comprehensive review on nanocrystal dynamics from three aspects: nucleation and growth, structure evolution, and dynamics in reaction conditions are given. In the nucleation and growth part, existing nucleation theories and growth pathways are organized based on liquid and gas-solid phases. In the structure evolution part, the focus is on in-depth mechanistic understanding of the evolution, including defects, phase, and disorder/order transitions. In the part of dynamics in reaction conditions, solid-solid and gas-solid interfaces of nanocrystals in atmosphere are discussed and the structure-property relationship is correlated. Even though impressive progress is made, additional efforts are required to develop the integrated and operando TEM methodologies for unveiling nanocrystal dynamics with high spatial, energy, and temporal resolutions.

Abstract
Preferential oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO-PROX) plays a vital role in H2 purification in the upstream systems of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) for its high efficiency, low cost and practicability. The key to the application of CO-PROX is the design and preparation of catalysts, and the supported metal catalysts have been the mainstay after decades of development. The metal-support interaction (MSI), which acts as a bridge between the design of supported catalysts and atomic-level theoretical research, has triggered increasing attention. There is a growing body of literature that recognizes the importance of the MSI in heterogeneous catalysis. In this review, the impacts of the MSI including strong metal-support interactions and electronic metal-support interactions on the essential characteristics of supported single atom, nanocluster and nanoparticle catalysts, and therefore, on catalytic behaviors were discussed, respectively, primarily focusing on electron transfer, chemical bonding and the encapsulation of active sites induced by the MSI. We also presented an overview of how the MSI can be utilized to rationally design catalysts to meet target requirements such as high activity, selectivity or stability via appropriate selection and modification of support and active species. The perspectives of the future development for comprehensive understanding of the MSI were also proposed.

Abstract
A strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) type catalyst has been synthesized and applied to a molten hydroxide direct carbon fuel cell (MHDCFC) to enhance the reaction activity of the anode carbon fuel through the interaction between the metal Ni and the support CeO2. Two catalysts have been prepared by a direct precipitation method (denoted NiO@CeO2) and a hydrothermal method (denoted NiO-CeO2), which are reduced by H2 to obtain Ni@CeO2 and Ni-CeO2, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman, and temperature-programmed hydrogen reduction (H2-TPR) analysis results show that there are obvious oxygen vacancies and a Ni-O-Ce interface structure in NiO-CeO2 and Ni-CeO2, which is induced by the interaction between Ni and CeO2. The calculation results of current density and power density show that the performance of the MHDCFC is significantly improved in the presence of Ni-CeO2. The function fitting curves of the logarithm of the reaction rate constant (ln k) and the reciprocal of the temperature (1/T) show that the slope of the curve is decreased significantly after the addition of Ni-CeO2. In combination with density functional theory (DFT), the anode carbon reaction path is simulated in the MHDCFC, and the calculation results show that the reaction energy for the anodic carbon to generate carbon dioxide is decreased by 1.03 eV in the presence of Ni-CeO2.

Abstract
The classical strong metal-support interaction (SMSI) plays a key role in improving thermal stability for supported Au catalysts. However, it always decreases the catalytic activity because of the encapsulation of Au species by support. Herein, we demonstrate that Al3+ is a functional additive which could effectively improve both catalytic activity and sintering resistant property for H2 pretreated Al3+ doped CeO2 supported Au (AuCeAl) catalyst at high temperature. The physical characterization and in-situ DRIFTS results provide insight that more oxygen vacancies generated by Al3+ doping could be as preferential adsorption sites for CO molecules when the encapsulation of Au species occurred, which is certificated by an accelerated formation of bicarbonate species. In the meantime, smaller Au nanoparticles with higher dispersion (2.8 nm, 85.63%) is achieved in AuCeAl catalysts, compared with that in CeO2 supported Au (AuCe) catalysts (5.1 nm, 36.17%). Additionally, the as-prepared AuCeAl catalysts also have superior catalytic performance even after calcination at 800 °C in air.

Abstract
The dynamic interactions between noble metal particles and reducible metal-oxide supports can depend on redox reactions with ambient gases. Transmission electron microscopy revealed that the strong metal-support interaction (SMSI)-induced encapsulation of platinum particles on titania observed under reducing conditions is lost once the system is exposed to a redox-reactive environment containing oxygen and hydrogen at a total pressure of ~1 bar. Destabilization of the metal-oxide interface and redox-mediated reconstructions of titania lead to particle dynamics and directed particle migration that depend on nanoparticle orientation. A static encapsulated SMSI state was reestablished when switching back to purely oxidizing conditions. This work highlights the difference between reactive and nonreactive states and demonstrates that manifestations of the metal-support interaction strongly depend on the chemical environment.

Abstract
Metal-support interaction has been one of the main topics of research on supported catalysts all the time. However, many other factors including the particle size, shape and chemical composition can have significant influences on the catalytic performance when considering the role of metal-support interaction. Herein, we have designed a series of CuxO/ZnO catalysts as examples to quantitatively investigate how the metal-support interaction influences the catalytic performance. The electronic metal-support interactions between CuxO and ZnO were regulated successfully without altering the structure of CuxO/ZnO catalyst. Due to the lower work function of ZnO, electrons would transfer from ZnO to CuO, which is favorable for the formation of higher active Cu species. Combined experimental and theoretical calculations revealed that electron-rich interface result from interaction was favorable for the adsorption of oxygen and CO oxidation reaction. Such strategy represents a new direction to boost the catalytic activity of supported catalysts in various applications.

Abstract
Atomically precise gold clusters are highly desirable due to their well-defined structure which allows the study of structure-property relationships. In addition, they have potential in technological applications such as nanoscale catalysis. The structural, chemical, electronic, and optical properties of ligated gold clusters are strongly defined by the metal-ligand interaction and type of ligands. This critical feature renders gold-phosphine clusters unique and distinct from other ligand-protected gold clusters. The use of multidentate phosphines enables preparation of varying core sizes and exotic structures beyond regular polyhedrons. Weak gold-phosphorous (Au-P) bonding is advantageous for ligand exchange and removal for specific applications, such as catalysis, without agglomeration. The aim of this review is to provide a unified view of gold-phosphine clusters and to present an in-depth discussion on recent advances and key developments for these clusters. This review features the unique chemistry, structural, electronic, and optical properties of gold-phosphine clusters. Advanced characterization techniques, including synchrotron-based spectroscopy, have unraveled substantial effects of Au-P interaction on the composition-, structure-, and size-dependent properties. State-of-the-art theoretical calculations that reveal insights into experimental findings are also discussed. Finally, a discussion of the application of gold-phosphine clusters in catalysis is presented.
