“…In addition, the intensity of the diffraction peaks gradually increased with the increase in Ni content. The diffraction peaks at 37.2°, 43.3°, 63.2°, and 75.3° are attributed to the (111), ( 200), (220), and (311) planes, respectively, of NiO with a cubic structure (JCPDS 78-0423) [7]. Figure 1c shows two distinct bands in the Raman spectrum of the CSs, the D peak at 1343 cm −1 and the G peak at 1585 cm −1 , which were ascribed to sp 3 and sp 2 -carbon, respectively, [23].…”

“…Carbon-based nanomaterials, such as carbon nanotubes, activated carbon, carbon spheres, and graphene, are among the catalytic supports that have been extensively studied [4][5][6][7][8][9][10]. Carbon black is the most widely studied although it has significant drawbacks, such as corrosion in the reaction media and the degradation of the catalytic performance due to NPs detaching.…”

Carbon spheres supporting nickel nanoparticles (NPs), generated by the integration of hydrothermal and microwave irradiation techniques, catalyzed the epoxidation of 1-octene, cyclooctene, styrene, allyl alcohol, and cyclohexene. The average particle sizes of the carbon spheres (CSs) and nickel oxide species immobilized on the CSs were 240 nm and 26 nm, respectively. The fabricated composites incorporating nickel NPs showed higher activity in the cyclohexene epoxidation process. The cyclohexene conversion was enhanced by raising the Ni loading to 10%. Within 14 h, the cyclohexene conversion had grown to 98%. This robust catalytic activity can be attributed to the efficient distribution of Ni species on the CSs, the facile lowering of the surface, and the development of uniformly nanosized species. The composite exhibited good recyclability across at least five cycles (which is not a simple task involving nickel-nanoparticle-based catalysts that are employed in water), and no nickel species leached into the solution, making the total system environmentally benign and cost-effective.
