NiS/NiO nanoparticles are successfully fabricated through a simple dealloying method and an ion-exchange process. X-ray diffraction demonstrates the existence of NiO and NiS phases, and scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy imply the nanopore distribution nature and the nanoparticle morphology of the produced material. The electrochemical behaviors are studied by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge–discharge measurements. The NiS/NiO electrode shows an enhanced specific capacitance of 1260 F g^–1 at a current density of 0.5 A g^–1. The NiS/NiO//AC device provides a maximum energy density of 17.42 W h kg^–1, a high power density of 4000 W kg^–1, and a satisfactory cycling performance of 93% capacitance retention after 30,000 cycles.

Supported Pt-based catalysts have been identified as highly selective catalysts for CO oxidation, but their potential for applications has been hampered by the high cost and scarcity of Pt metals as well as aggregation problems at relatively high temperatures. In this work, nanorod structured (TiO₂−Pt)/CeO₂ catalysts with the addition of 0.3 at% Pt and different atomic ratios of Ti were prepared through a combined dealloying and calcination method. XRD, XPS, SEM, TEM, and STEM measurements were used to confirm the phase composition, surface morphology, and structure of synthesized samples. After calcination treatment, Pt nanoparticles were semi-inlayed on the surface of the CeO₂ nanorod, and TiO₂ was highly dispersed into the catalyst system, resulting in the formation of (TiO₂−Pt)/CeO₂ with high specific surface area and large pore volume. The unique structure can provide more reaction path and active sites for catalytic CO oxidation, thus contributing to the generation of catalysts with high catalytic activity. The outstanding catalytic performance is ascribed to the stable structure and proper TiO₂ doping as well as the combined effect of Pt, TiO₂, and CeO₂. The research results are of importance for further development of high catalytic performance nanoporous catalytic materials.
