Energetics of copper diphosphates – Cu2P2O7 and Cu3(P2O6OH)2

Differential scanning calorimetry and high temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry are used to study enthalpy of phase transition and enthalpies of formation of Cu₂P₂O₇ and Cu₃(P₂O₆OH)₂. α-Cu₂P₂O₇ is reversibly transformed to β-Cu₂P₂O₇ at 338–363 K with an enthalpy of phase transition of 0.15 ± 0.03 kJ mol⁻¹. Enthalpies of formation from oxides of α-Cu₂P₂O₇ and Cu₃(P₂O₆OH)₂ are −279.0 ± 1.4 kJ mol⁻¹ and −538.8 ± 2.7 kJ mol⁻¹, and their standard enthalpies of formation (enthalpy of formation from elements) are −2096.1 ± 4.3 kJ mol⁻¹ and −4302.7 ± 6.7 kJ mol⁻¹, respectively. The presence of hydrogen in diphosphate groups changes the geometry of Cu(II) and decreases acid–base interaction between oxide components in Cu₃(P₂O₆OH)₂, thus decreasing its thermodynamic stability.     

Electrochemical kinetics and cycling performance of nano Li[Li0.23Co0.3Mn0.47]O2 cathode material for lithium ion batteries

Li[Li_0.23Co_0.3Mn_0.47]O₂ cathode material was prepared by a sol–gel method. The material had a primary particle size of about 100 nm, covered by a 30 Å of Li₂CO₃ layer. The material showed promising electrochemical performance when cycled up to 3C rate. The electrochemical kinetics of the first charge was much slower than that of the second charge, due to the complex electrochemical process which involved not only Li⁺ diffusion but also release of oxygen. By taking account of this, the material was pre-charged very slowly (C/50) in the first cycle. This led to excellent electrochemical performance in the following cycles. For instance, the 1C-rate capacity increased to 168 mA h g⁻¹ after 50 cycles, comparing with the 145 mA h g⁻¹ obtained without pre-charging.

Lithium electrochemistry of NiSe2: A new kind of storage energy material

NiSe₂ thin film has been successfully fabricated by reactive pulsed laser deposition and was investigated for its electrochemistry with lithium for the first time. The reversible discharge capacities of NiSe₂/Li cells cycled between 1.0 V and 3.0 V were found in the range of 314.9–467.5 mA h g⁻¹ during the first 200 cycles. By using ex situ X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and selected-area electron diffraction measurements, the intermediates of β-NiSe, and Ni₃Se₂ were identified during the reversible conversions of NiSe₂ into metal nickel and Li₂Se. Both cation (nickel) and anion (selenium) in NiSe₂ provide the redox active centers in its electrochemical reaction with lithium, indicating one of the features of its lithium electrochemistry. The high reversible capacity and good cycle ability of NiSe₂ electrode made it become a promising cathode material for future rechargeable lithium batteries.     

Kinetics of adsorption of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mandelated dehydrogenase on magnetic Fe3O4–chitosan nanoparticles

The adsorption of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mandelated dehydrogenase (SCMD) protein on the surface-modified magnetic nanoparticles coated with chitosan was studied in a batch adsorption system. Functionalization of surface-modified magnetic particles was performed by the covalent binding of chitosan onto the surface of magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles. Characterization of these particles was carried out using FTIR spectra, transmission electron micrography (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM). Magnetic measurement revealed that the magnetic Fe₃O₄–chitosan nanoparticles were superparamagnetic and the saturation magnetization was about 37.3 emu g⁻¹. The adsorption capacities and rates of SCMD protein onto the magnetic Fe₃O₄–chitosan nanoparticles were evaluated. The adsorption capacity was influenced by pH, and it reached a maximum value around pH 8.0. The adsorption capacity increased with the increase in temperature. The adsorption isothermal data could be well interpreted by the Freundlich isotherm model. The kinetic experimental data properly correlated with the first-order kinetic model, which indicated that the reaction is the adsorption control step. The apparent adsorption activation energy was 27.62 kJ mol⁻¹ and the first-order constant for SCMD protein was 0.01254 min⁻¹ at 293 K.

Preparation and characterization of spherical V2O3 nanopowder

V₂O₃ nanopowder with spherical particles was prepared by reducing pyrolysis of the precursor, (NH₄)₅[(VO)₆(CO₃)₄(OH)₉]·10H₂O, in H₂ atmosphere. The thermolysis process of the precursor in a H₂ flow was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis. The results indicate that pure V₂O₃ forms at 620°C and crystallizes at 730°C. The effects of various reductive pyrolysis conditions on compositions of V₂O₃ products were studied. Scanning electron micrographs show that the particles of the V₂O₃ powder obtained at 650°C for 1 h are spherical about 30 nm in size with more homogeneous distribution. Experiments show that nanopowder has larger adsorption capacity to gases and is more easily reoxidized by air at room temperature than micropowder. Differential scanning calorimetry experiment indicates that the temperature of phase transition of nano-V₂O₃ powder is −119.5°C on cooling or −99.2°C on heating. The transition heats are −12.55 J g⁻¹ on cooling and 11.42 J g⁻¹ on heating, respectively.

Investigation on double perovskite Ba4Ca2Ta2O11

The structure, conductivity and water uptake of the oxygen-deficient perovskite-type compound Ba₄Ca₂Ta₂O₁₁ have been investigated. Ba₄Ca₂Ta₂O₁₁ crystallizes in the cryolite structure (cubic, Fm3m SG) with a = 8.4508(2) Å, under dry air. The compound can be partially hydrated up to a maximum water content of approximately 0.52 mol H₂O per mol Ba₄Ca₂Ta₂O₁₁. In moist air, the structure symmetry becomes monoclinic (C2/m) and the temperature dependence of total conductivity shows a different behavior because of changes in transport mechanism.

High performance protonic ceramic membrane fuel cells (PCMFCs) with Ba0.5Sr0.5Zn0.2Fe0.8O3−δ perovskite cathode

Protonic ceramic membrane fuel cells (PCMFCs) based on proton-conducting electrolytes have attracted much attention because of many advantages, such as low activation energy and high energy efficiency.

An open-circuit potential of 1.015 V, a maximum power density of 486 mW cm⁻², and a low polarization resistance of the electrodes of 0.08 Ω cm² was achieved at 700 °C. The results have indicated that BZCY7 proton-conducting electrolyte with BSZF cathode is a promising material system for the next generation solid oxide fuel cells.     

Enhanced overcharge behavior and thermal stability of commercial LiCoO2 by coating with a novel material

Commercial LiCoO₂ has been modified with MnSiO₄ as a novel coating material. The structures, morphologies, overcharge behaviors and thermal stabilities of the pristine and MnSiO₄-coated LiCoO₂ materials were studied.

It was found that the overcharge tolerance of the coated cathode was significantly better than that of the pristine LiCoO₂ under the same conditions – the discharge specific capacities of the coated cathode at upper charge cutoff voltages of 4.5 and 4.7 V were as high as 168.7 and 154.3 mAh g⁻¹, respectively, after 50 cycles. Moreover, DSC showed that the coated LiCoO₂ had a higher thermal stability than the pristine LiCoO₂.
