Wet-process preparation of nickel-based photoanode for TCO-less fiber-shaped dye-sensitized solar cells

Low-cost ZnO-type fiber-shaped dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) without transparent conductive oxide (TCO) were for the first time assembled through a low-temperature all-wet process, using a series of Ni-based composite fiber. Both Ni layer morphology and ZnO nano-array structure evidently influenced the performance of the corresponding DSSC. For applications in both liquid type and all-solid CuI type fiber-shaped DSSCs, the Ni-based photoanode is comparable with the Ti- or Fe-based photoanode. Our all-solid CuI type fiber-shaped DSSCs was even better than that of the reported all-solid Ti- or Fe-based devices with the same oxide thickness. Electrochemical analysis further indicated that side reactions on the electrode/electrolyte interface could be effectively suppressed after a layer of Ni plated. Even for Cu wire, of which its interfacial side reactions are too complicated for application in DSSC, the Cu/Ni composite fiber still works well. Similar technology can be used to fabricate many other low-cost and light-weight conductive fibers, which are potential photoanode materials for highly efficient TCO-less DSSCs.     

Process prediction of Ni–SiC coatings based on RBF-BP model

The preparation of Ni–SiC coatings using magnetic field-assisted jet electrodeposition under various plating settings is described in this study. A RBF-BP composite neural network with 4 × 4 × 4 × 7 × 10 × 1 was used to predict the corrosion resistance of Ni–SiC coatings prepared by employing different plating parameters. The results show that the fitting degree between the expected value and the actual value of the RBF-BP composite neural network is 0.97497. Moreover, the hybrid neural network can accurately predict the corrosion resistance of Ni–SiC coatings prepared under different process parameters. The corrosion weight loss of the coating is the lowest at the current density of 4 A/dm², a jet rate of 3 m/s, a SiC particle concentration of 8 g/L, and at a magnetic field intensity of 0.8 T, demonstrating its corrosion resistance under these conditions. According to the coating characterization analysis, the coating's grain size was significantly refined, and the surface was smoother with a high amount of uniformly sized SiC nanoparticles.     

Synthesis and performance of electroless Ni–P–TiCN composite coatings on Al substrate

Electroless Ni–P and Ni–P–TiCN composite coatings have been deposited successfully on Al substrates. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X‐ray (EDX) techniques were applied to study the surface morphology and the chemical composition of the deposited films. Moreover, X‐ray diffraction (XRD) proved that Ni–P and Ni–P–TiCN deposits have amorphous structures. The properties of Ni–P–TiCN/Al composite films such as hardness, corrosion resistance and electrocatalytic activity were examined and compared with that of Ni–P/Al film. The results of hardness measurements reveal that the presence of TiCN particles with Ni–P matrix improves its hardness. Additionally, the performance against corrosion was examined using Tafel lines and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques in both of 0.6 M NaCl and a mixture of 0.5 M H₂SO₄ with 2 ppm HF solutions. The results indicate that the incorporation of high dispersed TiCN particles into Ni–P matrix led to a positive shift of the corrosion potential and an increase in the corrosion resistance for all aluminum substrates after their coating with Ni–P–TiCN. In addition, Ni–P–TiCN/Al electrodes showed a higher electrochemical catalytic activity and stability toward methanol oxidation in 0.5 M NaOH solution compared with that of Ni–P/Al.

Ni/SiO_2在甲烷部分氧化反应中的稳定性:W修饰的影响

甲烷部分氧化制合成气反应(POM)是天然气、页岩气资源利用的重要途径之一,常用的Ni/SiO2催化剂在反应中易发生表面积炭而失活。为了解决这一问题,我们采用尿素沉淀法制备W修饰的Ni基催化剂,并考察其在POM反应中的稳定性和W的作用。结果表明,催化剂中适量W的存在可显著改善其POM反应稳定性。其原因为Ni-W作用修饰了Ni的化学态或其亲氧能力,从而改善了其表面抗积炭能力。此外,反应中催化剂表面形成的α-WC具有一定的抑制表面积炭形成的能力,且该α-WC具有良好的稳定性。     

Effect of salt concentration on the nanostructure of weak polyacid brush in the amphiphilic polymer monolayer at the air/water interface

The effect of salt concentration on the nanostructure of a spread monolayer of ionic amphiphilic diblock copolymer, (diethylsilacyclobutane)m-b-(methacrylic acid)n, at the air-water interface was directly investigated by in situ X-ray reflectivity and neutron reflectivity techniques. Previously, we had found that a poly(methacrylic acid) (PMAA) hydrophilic layer under the water was not in the form of a simple polyelectrolyte brush but consisted of a dense carpet upper layer and a diffuse brush lower layer when the hydrophilic chain was long enough. Here we observed this double layer formation in the monolayer in aqueous NaCl solution at a constant surface pressure. The effect of salt added to the subphase differed with the salt concentrations, that is, below or above 0.1 M. In the presence of NaCl up to 0.1 M, both the hydrophobic layer and brush layer thicknesses decreased. On the other hand, both of them increased in the presence of NaCl above 0.1 M. Also, the carpet layer thickness was almost constant independent of the salt concentration. In addition, the brush top roughness showed a maximum in the presence of 0.1 M NaCl. The increase of the charge number on the PMAA chain and the screening effect of the Coulomb interaction by added salt ions were considered to be responsible for these phenomena.     

Boosting the Energy Density of Flexible Asymmetric Supercapacitor with Three Dimensional Fe2O3 Composite Brush Anode

Flexible asymmetric supercapacitor is fabricated with three dimensional(3D)Fe2O3/Ni(OH)2 composite brush anode and Ni(OH)2/MoO2 honeycomb cathode.Particularly for 3D composite brush anode,a layer of thin Fe2O3 film is firmly adhered on a 3D Ni brush current collector with the assist of Ni(OH)2,functioning as both adherence layer and pseudocapacitive active material.The unique 3D Ni brush current collector possesses large surface area and stretching architecture,which facilitate to achieve the composite anode with high gravimetric capacitance of 2158 F/g.In terms of cathode,Ni(OH)2 and MoO2 have a synergistic effect to improve the specific capacitance,and the resulting Ni(OH)2/MoO2 honeycomb cathode shows a very high gravimetric capacitance up to 3264 F/g.The asymmetric supercapacitor(ASC)has balanced cathode and anode,and exhibits an ultrahigh gravimetric capacitance of 1427 F/g and an energy density of 476 W·h/kg.The energy density of ASC is 3-4 times higher than those of other reported aqueous electrolyte-based supercapacitors and even comparable to that of commercial lithium ion batteries.The device also shows marginal capacitance degradation after 1000 cycles'bending test,demonstrating its potency in the application of flexible energy storage devices.

非晶态Ni-W-B合金的电沉积及其热处理前后的性能

To strengthen the properties of Ni-W alloy, dimethylamine borane （DMAB） was added to an alloy Ni-W electrolyte solution and a ternary Ni-W-B alloy was electrodeposited. The electrodeposition, crystallographic structure, surface morphology, heat treatment and corrosion resistance, of the alloy were studied by DSC, XRD, SEM and electrochemical techniques. The results showed that the structure of the alloy was greatly affected by the cooperation of boron compound. DSC experiment combined with X-ray diffractometry indicated that the obtained Ni-W-B alloy was still in amorphous structure although W content in the alloy was decreased by the addition of DMAB. After heat treatment at 400 ℃ for 1 h, the microhardness was increased from 612 to 947 kg.mm^-2 that was com- parative to Cr coating. The appearance of the as-plated coating was in f＇me and slice grains and kept almost no change after heat treatment. In w=0.03 NaC1 solution the as-plated coating presented very good corrosion resistance. After the coating was heat-treated its corrosion resistance was enhanced.
