Detailed and accurate three-dimensional (3D) information about the morphology of hierarchically structured materials is derived from multi-scale X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and subsequent 3D data reconstruction. High-resolution X-ray microscopy and nano-XCT are suitable techniques to nondestructively study nanomaterials, including porous or skeleton materials. However, laboratory nano-XCT studies are very time-consuming. To reduce the time-to-data by more than an order of magnitude, we propose taking advantage of a monitored tomographic reconstruction. The benefit of this new protocol for 3D imaging is that the data acquisition for each projection is interspersed by image reconstruction. We demonstrate this new approach for nano-XCT data of a novel transition-metal-based materials system: MoNi 4 electrocatalysts anchored on MoO 2 cuboids aligned on Ni foam (MoNi 4 /MoO 2 @Ni). Quantitative data that describe the 3D morphology of this hierarchically structured system with an advanced electrocatalytically active nanomaterial are needed to tailor performance and durability of the electrocatalyst system. We present the framework for monitored tomographic reconstruction, construct three stopping rules for various reconstruction quality metrics and provide their experimental evaluation.
