Summary: In this study, an n-n type heterojunction with Cu-N and B-N dual active sites was synthesized by in situ growth of a conductive metal-organic framework (MOF) [Cu-3(HITP)(2)] on hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) nanosheets. The optimized Cu-3(HITP)(2)@h-BN exhibited outstanding electrocatalytic nitrogen reduction performance with NH3 production of 146.2 μg/h mg(cat) and a Faraday efficiency of 42.5% due to its high porosity, abundant oxygen vacancies, and Cu-N/B-N dual active sites. The construction of the n-n heterojunction efficiently modulated the state density of active metal sites, facilitating charge transfer at the catalyst-reactant interface. Additionally, the NH3 production pathway catalyzed by the Cu-3(HITP)(2)@h-BN heterojunction was elucidated by in situ FT-IR spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations. This work presents an alternative approach to designing advanced electrocatalysts based on conductive MOFs.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
