金属锂具有电位低、比容量高等突出优点,是极具吸引力的下一代高能量密度电池的负极材料,然而存在枝晶、死锂、副反应严重、库伦效率低、循环稳定性差等问题,限制了其实际应用。金属锂负极的成核是电化学沉积过程中的重要步骤,锂在集流体或导电载体上的均匀成核和稳定生长对于抑制枝晶死锂、提高充放电效率和循环性能具有关键作用。本文从成核机制与载体效应的角度概述了锂金属负极的研究进展,介绍了锂成核驱动力、异相成核模型、空间电荷模型等内容,分析了锂核尺寸及分布与过电位和电流密度的关系,并通过三维载体分散电流密度、异相晶核/电场诱导成核、晶格匹配等方面的研究实例讨论了载体修饰对锂负极的性能提升。     

柠檬酸处理对ZSM-5分子筛甲缩醛气相羰基化性能的影响

采用柠檬酸对晶种法制备的低硅铝比ZSM-5纳米晶聚集体进行改性处理,并将其应用于催化甲缩醛(DMM)气相羰基化合成甲氧基乙酸甲脂(MMAc)反应.结果表明,通过调控柠檬酸处理时间可以有效地改进所制备ZSM-5分子筛的催化羰基化性能.其中,使用0.2 mol/L柠檬酸在80℃下处理12 h后的ZSM-5分子筛可获得59.5%DMM转化率和59.3%的MMAc选择性,MMAc收率从16.9%提高到35.3%.通过SEM、 TEM、 ICP、 N_2-BET、 Py-FTIR、 NH_3-TPD等表征手段对分子筛进行详细表征分析,发现适当调控柠檬酸处理时间,可使得纳米晶聚集体ZSM-5分子筛酸强度降低,并暴露出更多的中强B酸位点,同时增大分子筛比表面积及孔道体积.酸性位点的增多促使DMM转化率提高,而酸强度的降低、比表面积及孔道体积的增加,有助于调控中间物种的反应路径及扩散程度,进而抑制部分副反应,提高目标产物MMAc的选择性.     

添加叔丁醇钾对Mg(NH2)2-2LiH体系储氢性能的影响

叔丁醇钾(C_4H_9OK)的添加显著改善了Mg(NH_2)_2-2LiH体系的储氢性能。添加0.08 mol C_4H_9OK的Mg(NH_2)_2-2LiH-0.08C_4H_9OK样品表现出最佳储氢性能。该样品的起始放氢温度仅为70℃,较Mg(NH_2)_2-2LiH原始样品降低了60℃;130℃完全放氢后,该样品可在50℃开始吸氢,较原始样品降低了50℃。Mg(NH_2)_2-2LiH-0.08C_4H_9OK样品可在150℃的等温条件下50min内迅速放出质量分数3.82%的氢气,完全放氢后可在120℃的等温条件下50 min内快速吸收质量分数4.11%的氢气,表现出良好的吸放氢动力学性能。C_4H_9OK的添加降低了样品放氢反应的表观活化能和反应焓变,改善了放氢反应的动力学和热力学性能,从而降低了放氢反应温度。进一步的放氢反应机理研究发现,在180℃之前,C_4H_9OK对Mg(NH_2)_2-2LiH体系的放氢起催化改性作用;温度继续升高后,C_4H_9OK将会分解并参与放氢反应最终生成Li_3K(NH_2)_4。

RAFT synthesis of thioether-based,AB diblock copolymer nanocarriers for reactive oxygen species–triggered release

A well-defined AB diblock copolymer of 2-vinyl-4,4-dimethylazlactone (VDA) and N,N-dimethylacrylamide (DMA) was generated by reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) radical polymerization. The VDA-DMA diblock copolymer was reacted with 2-(methylthio)ethylamine (MTEA) and 3-(methylthio)propylamine (MTPA) to yield two novel thioether functional diblock copolymers whose structure was confirmed using ¹H NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. Both diblock copolymers formed micelles (20–30 nm) in aqueous media as confirmed by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy. The self-assembled micelles were loaded with Nile Red, a model hydrophobic drug to study their ROS-triggered release mechanism. On addition of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), the most common ROS species, the hydrophobic thioether core of these micelles oxidized, and both diblock copolymers became more hydrophilic. This triggered their disassembly and subsequent cargo release as characterized by UV–visible spectroscopy. The Nile Red loaded micelles demonstrated similar in-vitro ROS-mediated release when exposed to endogenous oxidants in a model inflammation environment simulated by the presence of activated macrophages. The responsive nanomaterials developed in this article have promising potential as drug carriers in applications where ROS-triggered delivery of cargo is required such as in inflammatory conditions.     

Concerted effect of boron and porosity on shear thickening behavior of hybrid mesoporous silica dispersions

In the present work, the influence of porosity and boron on shear thickening behavior of hybrid mesoporous silica has been studied. Three different levels of boron modification were performed by varying the molar composition of boric acid viz., 1.5 mmol, 2.5 mmol, and 3.5 mmol in a co-condensation approach. The incorporation of boron in mesoporous silica network was confirmed by various techniques such as Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR), and ¹¹B solid- state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. The morphology and particle size were confirmed by using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. To evaluate the effect of boron and porosity on the shear thickening behavior, dispersions were prepared from mesoporous boron- modified silica (MSiB), control mesoporous silica (MSi), non-porous boron-modified silica (SiB), and control non-porous silica (Si) in polyethylene glycol. The shear thickening behavior was studied using steady shear rheology. The dispersion prepared from different loadings of synthesized MSiB containing 1.5 mmol boron showed more than 16 times increase in viscosity (657.7 Pa.s) compared to that of MSi (39.2 Pa.s) at a fairly low volume fraction (φ = 0.15) of silica. It is expected that the highly ordered mesoporous architecture of hybrid silica has improved the interaction between the particle and the dispersing medium through hydrogen bonding. The porous morphology of the hybrid mesoporous silica as well as the incorporation of boron in the silica network favors the formation of a frictional contact network, and a transition from continuous shear thickening (CST) to discontinuous shear thickening (DST) behavior was observed. Therefore, silica prepared via incorporation of boron as well as porosity can be material of interest in variety of applications, for example, soft body armors, sporting goods, and shear thickening electrolytes for high impact resistant batteries.
