ABSTRACTTransition metal carbide precursors have been made in the past by the reaction of alkoxides with polymeric materials to form gels and resins. A new route to transition metal carbide precursors has been developed using alkoxides polymerized with dicarboxylic acids. (Dicarboxylic acid precursors have the advantage of precipitating as powders that can be removed from solvents by filtration and that are not very air sensitive.) Precursors were pyrolyzed under inert or reducing conditions to form metal carbides.The choice of ligand(s) determined the carbon content after pyrolysis. Unsaturated ligands tended to increase carbon content. Materials from oils to fine powders were produced by varying the stereochemistry of the ligands. The morphology of the pyrolyzed product mimicked that of the precipitated powder. Pyrolysis was typically carried out under Ar/H2 at 1200–1600°C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to follow the incorporation of carbon into the lattice.

<div>CO2 is one of the main actors in the greenhouse effect and its removal from the atmosphere is becoming an urgent need. Thus, CO2 capture and storage (CCS) and CO2 capture and usage (CCU) technologies are intensively investigated as technologies to decrease the concentration</div><div>of atmospheric CO2. Both CCS and CCU require appropriate materials to adsorb/release and adsorb/activate CO2, respectively. Recently, it has been theoretically and experimentally shown that transition metal carbides (TMC) are able to capture, store, and activate CO2. To further improve the adsorption capacity of these materials, a deep understanding of the atomic level processes involved is essential. In the present work, we theoretically investigate the possible effects of surface metal doping of these TMCs by taking TiC as a textbook case and Cr, Hf, Mo, Nb, Ta, V, W, and Zr as dopants. Using periodic slab models with large</div><div>supercells and state-of-the-art density functional theory based calculations we show that CO2 adsorption is enhanced by doping with metals down a group but worsened along the d series. Adsorption sites, dispersion and coverage appear to play a minor, secondary constant effect. The dopant-induced adsorption enhancement is highly biased by the charge rearrangement at the surface. In all cases, CO2 activation is found but doping can shift the desorption temperature by up to 135 K.</div>
