Tripathi, Balram published the artcileBiFeO3 Coupled Polysulfide Trapping in C/S Composite Cathode Material for Li-S Batteries as Large Efficiency and High Rate Performance, Category: ethers-buliding-blocks, the main research area is carbon sulfur composite; bismuth iron oxide polysulfide composite cathode lithium sulfur battery.

We demonstrated the efficient coupling of BiFeO3 (BFO) ferroelec. material within the carbon-sulfur (C-S) composite cathode, where polysulfides are trapped in BFO mesh, reducing the polysulfide shuttle impact, and thus resulting in an improved cyclic performance and an increase in capacity in Li-S batteries. Here, the built-in internal field due to BFO enhances polysulfide trapping. The observation of a difference in the diffusion behavior of polysulfides in BFO-coupled composites suggests more efficient trapping in BFO-modified C-S electrodes compared to pristine C-S composite cathodes. The X-ray diffraction results of BFO-C-S composite cathodes show an orthorhombic structure, while Raman spectra substantiate efficient coupling of BFO in C-S composites, in agreement with SEM images, showing the interconnected network of submicron-size sulfur composites. Two plateaus were observed at 1.75 V and 2.1 V in the charge/discharge characteristics of BFO-C-S composite cathodes. The observed capacity of ∼1600 mAh g-1 in a 1.5-2.5 V operating window for BFO30-C10-S60 composite cathodes, and the high cyclic stability substantiate the superior performance of the designed cathode materials due to the efficient reduction in the polysulfide shuttle effect in these composite cathodes.

Huang, Kai published the artcileSystematic Optimization of High-Energy-Density Li-Se Semi-Solid Flow Battery, Safety of 2,5,8,11,14-Pentaoxapentadecane, the main research area is tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether lithium selenium energy density optimization.

Redox flow batteries (RFBs) are still unable to be applied in more fields due to their low energy d. This work proposes a high-energy-d. Li-Se semi-solid flow battery (SSFB), and improves its performance through an optimization process. The effect of composite synthesis, current collector types, and electrolyte solvent types are systematically studied. The method of impregnating Se and Ketjen black (KB) directly according to their proportion in the suspension as a composite without adding addnl. KB can not only effectively improve the stability and utilization of suspension, but also greatly reduce its viscosity. Carbon paper is used as the current collector to improve the performance of the system by its smaller contact resistance. The selected solvent of tetraethylene glycol di-Me ether (TEGDME) has smaller volatility and a larger contact angle, which contributes to the formation of a stable and uniform suspension. After optimization, the demonstrated system has achieved a volumetric capacity of 156-386 Ah L-1 with high Coulombic efficiency (≈100%) for 100 cycles. Finally, the intermittent-flow mode test has confirmed the applicability of the system. This research provides a reference for the practical application of SSFBs and a direction for the optimization of other types of suspensions.

Tang, Ming published the artcileCobalt-decorated carbon nanofibers as a low overpotential cathode for nonaqueous Na-CO2 batteries, Computed Properties of 143-24-8, the main research area is carbon dioxide nanofiber overpotential cathode polarization nonaqueous battery.

As the high energy-d. energy storage and greenhouse gas capture device, Na-CO2 battery development is impeded by the sluggish CO2 reduction and difficult decomposition of insulating discharge products on the cathode. Here, the cobalt (Co)-decorated carbon nanofibers accompanying with slight Co oxidation were used as the self-standing cathode for Na-CO2 battery. It greatly reduces the discharge overpotential by 500 mV and charge overpotential by 210 mV, delivers a 12 times higher discharge capacity and runs nearly 4 times cycle life than its counterpart. Experiment combined with theory calculation demonstrates that the evenly dispersive, abundant and stable active sites (Co-CoO) with an equal CO2 adsorption-desorption capability is the key to improving cell performance. This work reveals the importance of catalysts/cathodes and provides a direction to design highly efficient catalysts/cathodes for alkali metal-CO2 batteries.

Liu, Limin published the artcileRational Design of Nanostructured Metal/C Interface in 3D Self-Supporting Cellulose Carbon Aerogel Facilitating High-Performance Li-CO2 Batteries, Application of 2,5,8,11,14-Pentaoxapentadecane, the main research area is lithium carbon dioxide batterry cellulose aerogel nanostructure.

The sluggish kinetics of CO2 reduction and evolution reaction (CRR and CER) on the Li-CO2 battery cathode seriously hindered its practical application. Rational design of the Ru/C interface is expected to simultaneously decrease the free energy barrier of intermediate species and create a favorable electronic structure, effectively promoting the catalytic reaction kinetics of the CRR and CER. Herein, a 3D self-supporting cellulose carbon aerogel (CCA) with well-defined Ru/C interfaces (Ru@CCA) is synthesized as an advanced CO2-breathing cathode for Li-CO2 batteries. The results show that the energy efficiency significantly improves to 80% with a high discharge capacity of 10.71 mA h cm-2 at 20μA cm-2, and excellent cyclic stability of 421 cycles at 100μA cm-2. These outstanding performances are highly competitive compared with state-of-art Li-CO2 cathodes. In addition, the unique interface design strategy is applied to other non-noble metal@CCA cathodes, which confirms the advantages of constructing nanostructure metal/C interfaces for improving the kinetics of CRR and CER. This fundamental understanding of the structure-performance relationship provides new inspiration for designing highly efficient cathode catalysts for Li-CO2 batteries.

Wei, Zhaohuan published the artcileA novel Cr2O3/MnO2-x electrode for lithium-oxygen batteries with low charge voltage and high energy efficiency, Safety of 2,5,8,11,14-Pentaoxapentadecane, the main research area is chromium trioxide manganese dioxide electrode lithium oxygen battery voltage; Cr2O3; Energy efficiency; MnO2-x; charge voltage; lithium-oxygen battery.

A high energy efficiency, low charging voltage cathode is of great significance for the development of non-aqueous lithium-oxygen batteries. Non-stoichiometric manganese dioxide (MnO2-x) and chromium trioxide (Cr2O3) are known to have good catalytic activities for the discharging and charging processes, resp. In this work, we prepared a cathode based on Cr2O3 decorated MnO2-x nanosheets via a simple anodic electrodeposition-electrostatic adsorption-calcination process. This combined fabrication process allowed the simultaneous introduction of abundant oxygen vacancies and trivalent manganese into the MnO2-x nanosheets, with a uniform load of a small amount of Cr2O3 on the surface of the MnO2-x nanosheets. Therefore, the Cr2O3 /MnO2-x electrode exhibited a high catalytic effect for both discharging and charging, while providing high energy efficiency and low charge voltage. Exptl. results show that the as-prepared Cr2O3 /MnO2-x cathode could provide a specific capacity of 6,779 mA· h· g-1 with a terminal charge voltage of 3.84 V, and energy efficiency of 78%, at a c.d. of 200 mA·g-1 . The Cr2O3 /MnO2-x electrode also showed good rate capability and cycle stability. All the results suggest that the as-prepared Cr2O3 /MnO2-x nanosheet electrode has great prospects in non-aqueous lithium-oxygen batteries.

Li, Dan published the artcile1,2-dimethyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide as a multiple-functional redox mediator for Li-O2 batteries: In situ generation of a “”self-defensed”” SEI layer on Li anode, Formula: C10H22O5, the main research area is dimethyl propylimidazolium iodide redox mediator lithium oxygen battery anode.

How to develop a homogeneous redox mediator (RM) towards both ORR and OER and how to prevent the shuttle effect are two main issues for Li-O2 batteries thus far. Here, we firstly report 1,2-dimethyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide (DMPII), which serves multiple functions as a RM for discharge capacity promotion, a RM for charge potential reduction, and a Li anode protector for shuttling suppression by in situ generating a “”self-defensed”” SEI layer. Benefiting from these advantages, a cell with DMPII displays a stable cyclability with a low terminal charge potential of ∼3.6 V till the cell death, a considerable rate performance, and a good reversibility associated with Li2O2 formation and degradation Based on the exptl. and d. functional theory (DFT) calculation results, a working mechanism for a cell operation is also proposed. These results represent a promising progress in the development of multiple-functional RM for Li-O2 batteries. Moreover, we expect that this work gives an insight into the in situ protection of Li metal anode for board applications (e.g., Li-S batteries, all-solid-state Li-ion batteries, etc.).

Wang, Hua published the artcileGreatly promoted oxygen reduction reaction activity of solid catalysts by regulating the stability of superoxide in metal-O2 batteries, Related Products of ethers-buliding-blocks, the main research area is superoxide solid catalyst stability oxygen battery reduction reaction activity.

Oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs) with one- or two-electron-transfer pathways are the essential process for aprotic metal-oxygen batteries, in which the stability of superoxide intermediates/products (O2-, LiO2, NaO2, etc.) mainly dominates the ORR activity/stability and battery performance. However, little success in regulating the stability of the superoxides has been achieved due to their highly reactive characteristics. Herein, we identified and modulated the stability of superoxides by introducing anthraquinone derivatives as cocatalysts which functioned as superoxide trapper adsorbing the superoxides generated via surface-mediated ORR and then transferring them from the solid catalyst surface into electrolyte. Among the studied trappers, 1,4-difluoroanthraquinone (DFAQ) with electron-withdrawing groups showed the highest adsorption towards superoxides and could efficiently stabilize LiO2 in electrolyte, which greatly promoted the surface-mediated ORR rate and stability. This highlighted the magnitude of adsorption between the trapper and LiO2 on the ORR activity/stability. Using an aprotic Li-O2 battery as a model metal-O2 battery, the overall performance of the cell with DFAQ was substantially improved in terms of cell capacity, rate capability and cyclic stability. These results represent a significant advance in the understanding of ORR mechanisms and promoting the performance of metal-O2 batteries.

Maho, Anthony published the artcileAqueous processing and spray deposition of polymer-wrapped tin-doped indium oxide nanocrystals as electrochromic thin films, Synthetic Route of 143-24-8, the main research area is spray deposition polymer surface ITO nanocrystal electrochromic thin film.

Plasmonic metal oxide nanocrystals are interesting electrochromic materials because they display high modulation of IR light, fast switching kinetics, and durability. Nanocrystals facilitate solution-based and high-throughput deposition, but typically require handling hazardous nonaqueous solvents and further processing of the as-deposited film with energy-intensive or chem. treatments. We report on a method to produce aqueous dispersions of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) by refunctionalizing the nanocrystal surface, previously stripped of its native hydrophobic ligands, with a hydrophilic poly(acrylic acid) polymer featuring a low d. of methoxy-terminated poly(ethylene oxide) grafts (PAA-mPEO4). To determine conditions favoring the adsorption of PAA-mPEO4 on ITO, we varied the pH and chem. species present in the exchange solution The extent of polymer wrapping on the nanocrystal surface can be tuned as a function of the pH to prevent aggregation in solution and deposit uniform, smooth, and optical quality spray coated thin films. We demonstrate the utility of polymer-wrapped ITO nanocrystal thin films as an electrochromic material and achieve fast, stable, and reversible near-IR modulation without the need to remove the polymer after deposition provided that a wrapping d. of ~20% by mass is not exceeded.
