In this paper, Yan et al. demonstrate the performance of nickel@siloxene to be highly sensitive to the nickel component being located either on the interior or exterior of adjacent siloxene nanosheets. Control over the location of nickel is achieved by employing the terminal groups of siloxene and varying the solvent used during its nucleation and growth, which ultimately determines the distinct reaction intermediates and pathways for the catalytic CO2 methanation. A CO2 methanation rate of 100\u2009mmol\u2009gNi\u22121\u2009h\u22121 is achieved with over 90% selectivity when nickel resides specifically between the sheets of siloxene.<br \/>\nSee full article at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nature.com\/articles\/s41467-019-10464-x\">Nature Communications<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>wo-dimensional materials hold great potential as catalysts for the heterogeneous conversion of CO2 to synthetic fuels and chemicals.
