RATIONAL DESIGN OF OPTIMAL BIMETALLIC AND TRIMETALLIC NICKEL-BASED SINGLE-ATOM ALLOYS FOR BIO-OIL UPGRADING TO HYDROGEN

Rational design of optimal bimetallic and trimetallic nickel-based single-atom alloys for bio-oil upgrading to hydrogen

Abstract Designing highly active, cost-effective, stable, and coke-resistant catalysts is a hurdle in commercializing bio-oil steam reforming.Single-atom alloys (SAAs) are captivating atomic ensembles crosschecking affordability and activity, yet their stability is held questionable by trial-and-error synthesis practices.Herein, we employ descripto

Small brains predisposed Late Quaternary mammals to extinction

Abstract The Late Quaternary witnessed a dramatic wave of large mammal extinctions, that are usually attributed to either human hunting or climatic Accessory (Set of 5) change.We hypothesized that the large mammals that survived the extinctions might have been endowed with larger brain sizes than their relatives, which could have conferred enhanced
