Highly Efficient Oxygen Reduction Reaction Fe-N-C Cathode in Long-durable Direct Glycol Fuel Cells

The oxygen reduction reaction in direct glycol fuel cells heavily relies on noble metal-based electrocatalysts. In this work, novel Pt group metal-free catalysts based on porous Fe-N-C materials are successfully synthesized as catalysts with high activity and durability for the cathode oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Through the encapsulation of NH₄SCN salt, the surface elements and pore structure of the catalyst are effectively changed, and the active sites of Fe effectively are increased. The half-wave potential of the best Fe-N-C catalyst was –0.02 V vs. Hg/HgO in an alkaline environment. The porous Fe-N-C catalyst possesses a large specific surface area(1158 m²/g) and shows good activity and tolerance to glycol. The direct glycol fuel cell with the Fe-N-C cathode achieved a maximum power density of 62.2 mW/cm² with 4 mol/L KOH and 4 mol/L glycol solution at 25 °C and maintained discharge for more than 250 h at a 50 A/cm² current density.

From borophosphate to fluoroborophosphate: a rational design of fluorine-induced birefringence enhancement

The introduction of oxofluoride anion into anionic group assists to tune optical properties owing to the change of coordination,electronegativity,and according anionic framework.Here,we proposed a rational design of new compounds by fluorine-driven structure and optical property evolution.A new borophosphate Ba_2BP_3O_(11)with the monoclinic space group P2_1/c has been synthesized in the sealed system.Ba_2BP_3O_(11)exhibits a rare P–O–P bridge formation,which is the first example in alkaline-earth metal borophosphates.By further substituting[BO_4]~(3-)with[BO_3F]~(4-),the first alkaline-earth metal/lead fluoroborophosphates M_2BP_2O_8F (M=Ba and Pb) with the same space group were designed.Since the scissors effect of fluorine,in M_2BP_2O_8F (M=Ba and Pb),a BO_3F tetrahedron corner-sharing with three PO_4tetrahedra forms 1D chains along the b-axial direction,which are filled by MO_n(M=Ba/Pb,n=5,6,8) distorted polyhedra.The first principles calculation shows that the borophosphate Ba_2BP_3O_(11)has a birefringence about 0.013@1,064 nm,while the fluoroborophosphates M_2BP_2O_8F (M=Ba and Pb) have the values of 0.035 and 0.043@1,064 nm,respectively.Such an apparent enhancement in birefringence is derived from synergies of the oxyfluoride and cation.The introduction of fluorine-containing heteroanionic groups provides a feasible strategy to design novel promising optical materials.

Alumina nanofibers obtained via electrospinning of pseudo-boehmite sol/PVP solution

Alumina nanofibers were fabricated by calcination of the polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP)/pseudo-boehmite nanocomposite precursor fibers formed by electrospinning PVP/ethanol solution of dispersed pseudo-boehmite nanoparticles with and without additive of silica. The evolution of the phase, mechanical property and morphological features of the calcined fibers were studied and the effect of adding SiO₂ on the phase transformation of alumina was discussed. Adding SiO₂ can retard the phase transformation of γ-Al₂O₃ to α-Al₂O₃ and therefore inhibit the growth of alumina grains during calcination. Upon calcining the precursor fibers with 4 wt% SiO₂ additive at 1,300 °C, continuous alumina nanofibers with diameter ranging from 300 to 800 nm were obtained. These continuous nanofibers exhibited good flexibility and could be very promising for applications in filtration and catalyst support.     

La3B6O13(OH): The First Acentric High-Pressure Borate Displaying Edge-Sharing BO4 Tetrahedra

La₃B₆O₁₃(OH) was obtained by a high-pressure/high-temperature experiment at 6 GPa and 1673 K. The compound crystallizes in the space group P2₁ (no. 4) with the lattice parameters a=4.785(2), b=12.880(4), c=7.433(3) Å, and β=90.36(10)°, and is built up of corner- as well as edge-sharing BO₄ tetrahedra. It represents the first acentric high-pressure borate containing these B₂O₆ entities. The compound develops borate layers of „sechser“-rings with the La³⁺ cations positioned between the layers. Single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction, vibrational and MAS NMR spectroscopy, second-harmonic generation (SHG) and thermoanalytical measurements, as well as computational methods were used to affirm the proposed structure and the B₂O₆ entities.
