Synthesis and characterization of Li1.05Co1/3Ni1/3Mn1/3O1.95X0.05 (X = Cl,Br) cathode materials for lithium-ion battery

In order to improve the thermal stability and dynamic performance of LiCo_1/3Ni_1/3Mn_1/3O₂ materials, Cl-doped and Br-doped materials were synthesized via the co-precipitation method. The morphology, structure, electrochemical performance and thermal stability were characterized by environment scanning electron microscopy (ESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), charge–discharge cycling and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Results show that all materials had a stable layered structure with α-NaFeO₂ and that Cl-doping slightly increased the size of grains. Both Cl-doping and Br-doping improved the high rate of discharge capacity, cycle-life performance and thermal stability, but Cl-doping was better than Br-doping in improving the material structure stability, dynamic performance and thermal stability.

Coupling-observer-based nonlinear control for flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles

This paper investigates the nonlinear control problem for flexible air-breathing hypersonic vehicles (FAHVs). The coupling dynamics between flexible and rigid-body parts of FAHVs may cause degradation of control performance or high-frequency oscillations of control input and flexible state. In this paper, the flexible effects produced by the coupling are modeled as a kind of unknown disturbance and included in the new control-design model, for which a coupling observer is constructed to estimate these effects. Thus, a novel nonlinear composite control strategy, which combines a coupling-observer-based feedforward compensator and a dynamic-inversion-based feedback controller, is proposed to reject the flexible effects on pitch rate and track desired trajectories of velocity and flight-path angle. The stability of composite closed-loop system is analyzed by using the Lyapunov theory. Simulation results on a full nonlinear model of FAHVs demonstrate that the presented controller is more effective by comparison with the previous scheme.     

Assembled synthesis of luminescent mono/double‐layered 2D and 3D Zn (II)‐based coordination polymers tuned by flexible bis (pyridyl)propane‐1,2‐diamines and diverse organic dicarboxylates

Six mono/double‐layered 2D and three 3D coordination polymers were synthesized by a self‐assembly reaction of Zn (II) salts, organic dicarboxylic acids and L1/L2 ligands. These polymeric formulas are named as [Zn(L1)(C₄H₂O₄)_0.5 (H₂O)]_n·0.5n(C₄H₂O₄)·2nH₂O ( 1 ), [Zn₂(L2)(C₄H₂O₄)₂]_n·2nH₂O ( 2 ), [Zn(L1)(m‐BDC)]_n ( 3 ), [Zn₂(L2)(m‐BDC)₂]_n·2nH₂O ( 4 ), [Zn₃(L1)₂(p‐BDC)₃(H₂O)₄]_n·2nH₂O ( 5 ), [Zn₂(OH)(L2) (p‐BDC)_1.5]_n ( 6 ), [Zn₂(L1)(p‐BDC)₂]_n·5nH₂O ( 7 ), [Zn₂(L2)(p‐BDC)₂]_n·3nH₂O ( 8 ) and [Zn₂(L1)(C₄H₄O₄)_1.5(H₂O)]_n·n(ClO₄)·nH₂O ( 9 ) [L1 = N,N′‐bis (pyridin‐4‐ylmethyl)propane‐1,2‐diamine, L2 = N,N′‐bis (pyridin‐3‐ylmethyl)propane‐1,2‐ diamine, m‐BDC^2? = m‐benzene dicarboxylate, p‐BDC^2? = p‐benzene dicarboxylate]. Meanwhile, these polymers have been characterized by elemental analysis, infrared, thermogravimetry (TG), photoluminescence, powder and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Polymers 1–6 present mono‐ and double (4,4)‐layer motifs accomplished by L1/L2 ligands with diverse conformations and organic dicarboxylates, and the layer thickness locates in the range of 5.8–15.0 Å. In three 3D polymers, the L1 and L2 molecules adopt the same cis‐conformations and join adjacent Zn (II) cations together with p‐BDC^2? or succinate, giving rise to different binodal (4,4)‐c nets with (4.5².8³)(4.5³.7²) ( 7 ), pts ( 8 ) topology and twofold interpenetrated binodal (5,5)‐c nets with (3².4⁴.5².6²)(3.4³.5².6⁴) ( 9 ). Therefore, the diverse conformations of the two bis (pyridyl)‐propane‐1,2‐diamines and the feature of different organic dicarboxylate can effectively influence the architectures of these polymers. Powder X‐ray diffraction patterns demonstrate that these bulk solid polymers are pure phase. TG analyses indicate that these polymers have certain thermal stability. Luminescent investigation reveals that the emission maximum of these polymers varies from 402 to 449 nm in the solid state at room temperature. Moreover, 1 , 3 and 5–8 show average luminescence lifetimes from 8.81 to 16.30 ns.     

Enantiomer-selective Living Polymerization of rac-Phenyl Isocyanide Using Chiral Palladium Catalyst

We report the polymerization of phenyl isocyanides with the chiral palladium(II) initiating system. The resulting polymers with optically active properties were obtained by polymerization of the racemic isocyanide monomer(rac-1), and enantiomerically unbalanced polymerization of the monomer was found, providing substantial evidence for the enantiomer-selective polymerization of rac-1 mediated through chiral catalyst. A comparison between the enantiomerically pure monomers, 4-isocyanobenzoyl-L-alanine decyl ester(1 s) and 4-isocyanobenzoyl-D-alanine decyl ester(1 r), revealed a drastic discrepancy in the reactivity ratio of their homopolymerizations.It turned out that the monomer reactivity ratio of 1 s was higher than that of 1 r with chiral ligands. The results clearly demonstrated the inclination for incorporation of the 1 s enantiomer during the polymerization process and thus resulted in the enantiomer-selective polymerization in this system. The effects of the catalyst chirality on the optically active properties of polymerization were investigated,and it was concluded that the formation of higher-ordered conformation with a handed helicity might be attributed to the chiral induction of chiral palladium(II) catalyst. Moreover, the polymers obtained through the enantiomer-selective polymerization of the enantiomerically pure monomer were with a significant improvement of the optical activity if the chirality of the monomer and the catalyst matched with each other.
