Reaction Processes

We evaluated isolated transition metal atoms (Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, and Ni) embedded in hexagonal-BN as novel single atom catalysts for CO oxidation. We predicted that embedded Ni atoms should have superior performance for this task. Ti, V, and Mn bind CO2 too strongly and so the reaction will not proceed smoothly. We studied the detailed reaction processes for Sc, Cr, and Ni. The Langmuir–Hinshelwood (LH), Eley–Rideal (ER), and the new termolecular Eley–Rideal (TER) processes for CO oxidation were investigated. Sc was not effective. Cr primarily used the ER process, although the barrier was relatively large at 1.30 eV. Ni was the best of the group, with a 0.44 eV barrier for LH, and a 0.47 eV barrier for TER. Therefore, we predicted that the LH and TER processes could operate at relatively low temperatures between 300 and 500 K.

Pt single atoms doped on V-, Ti-, Nb-, and Cr-based MXenes presented high catalytic performances, especially the Nb- and Cr-based ones, which were promising bifunctional ORR/OER catalysts.
