Abstract In order to evaluate the effect of precursors and synthesis strategies on catalytic ability of Mo2C in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), four kinds of Mo2C were synthesized using two kinds of MoO3 by two strategies. Compared with the one-step direct carbonization strategy, Mo2C with a large special surface area and a better performance could be synthesized by the two-step strategy composed of a nitridation reaction and a carbonization reaction. Additionally, the as-prepared porous Mo2C nanobelts (NBs) exhibit good electrocatalytic performance with a small overpotential of 165 mV (0.5 M H2SO4) and 124 mV (1 M KOH) at 10 mA cm-2, as well as a Tafel slope of 58 mV dec-1 (0.5 M H2SO4) and 59 mV dec-1 (1 M KOH). The excellent catalytic activity is ascribed to the nano crystallites and porous structure. What’s more, the belt structure also facilitates the charge transport in the materials during the electrocatalytic HER process. Therefore, the two-step strategy provides a new insight into the structural design with superior performance for electrocatalytic HER.

Nanocrystal formation for the dissolution enhancement of glimepiride was attempted by wet media milling. Different stabilizers were tested and the obtained nanosuspensions were solidified by spray drying in presence of mannitol, and characterized regarding their redispersibility by dynamic light scattering, physicochemical properties by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), FT-IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and scanning electron microcopy (SEM), as well as dissolution rate. Lattice energy frameworks combined with topology analysis were used in order to gain insight into the mechanisms of particle fracture. It was found that nanosuspensions with narrow size distribution can be obtained in presence of poloxamer 188, HPC-SL and Pharmacoat® 603 stabilizers, with poloxamer giving poor redispersibility due to melting and sticking of nanocrystals during spray drying. DSC and FT-IR studies showed that glimepiride does not undergo polymorphic transformations during processing, and that the milling process induces changes in the hydrogen bonding patterns of glimepiride crystals. Lattice energy framework and topology analysis revealed the existence of a possible slip plane on the (101) surface, which was experimentally verified by PXRD analysis. Dissolution testing proved the superior performance of nanocrystals, and emphasized the important influence of the stabilizer on the dissolution rate of the nanocrystals.
