Super Nanoteragonal ZrO 2 Embedded in Carbon as Efficient Support of PdAg Nanoparticles : The application of formic acid (FA) as a safe, renewable and promising hydrogen‐storage material has received considerable attention. However, exploring efficient heterogeneous catalysts for selective dehydrogenation of FA remains challenging. In this article, the authors report the synthesis of a super nanoteragonal ZrO 2 by calcining Zr‐based metal‐organic framework. The resulting PdAg@ZrO 2 /C catalyst exhibits excellent activity for the decomposition of FA. More details can be found in the Communication by Cheng Feng et al. on page 2120 in Issue 11, 2018 ( 10.1002/ente.201800319).
