Thickness difference induced pore structure variations in cellulosic separators for lithium-ion batteries

The pore structure of the separator is crucial to the performance of a lithium-battery as it affects the cell resistance. Herein, a straightforward approach to vary the pore structure of Cladophora cellulose (CC) separators is presented. It is demonstrated that the pore size and porosity of the CC separator can be increased merely by decreasing the thickness of the CC separator by using less CC in the manufacturing of the separator. As the pore size and porosity of the CC separator are increased, the mass transport through the separator is increased which decreases the electrolyte resistance in the pores of the separator. This enhances the battery performance, particularly at higher cycling rates, as is demonstrated for LiFePO₄/Li half-cells. A specific capacity of around 100 mAh g^?1 was hence obtained at a cycling rate of 2 C with a 10 µm thick CC separator while specific capacities of 40 and close to 0 mAh g^?1 were obtained for separators with thicknesses of 20 and 40 µm, respectively. As the results also showed that a higher ionic conductivity was obtained for the 10 µm thick CC separator than for the 20 and 40 µm thick CC separators, it is clear that the different pore structure of the separators was an important factor affecting the battery performance in addition to the separator thickness. The present straightforward, yet efficient, strategy for altering the pore structure hence holds significant promise for the manufacturing of separators with improved performance, as well as for fundamental studies of the influence of the properties of the separator on the performance of lithium-ion cells.     

Enhancement of SrTiO<Subscript>3</Subscript>/BiPO<Subscript>4</Subscript> heterostructure for simulated organic wastewater degradation under UV light irradiation

A novel SrTiO₃/BiPO₄ heterostructure with different amounts of SrTiO₃ have been successfully prepared through the hydrothermal process. The photocatalysts were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, UV–Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The photocatalytic performance was evaluated by degrading the methylene blue dye solution under UV light. Results showed that the samples displayed excellent photocatalytic degradation efficiency due to the highly efficient suppression of the recombination of electron–hole pairs. A possible mechanism of SrTiO₃/BiPO₄ heterojunctions was discussed. The research indicated that the as-prepared SrTiO₃/BiPO₄ heterogeneous photocatalyst can be used as an effective material for degrading industrial organic wastewater.

无模板法水热合成CoTe及其可见光光催化还原CO_2性能

本文利用无模版水热法合成了碲化钴(CoTe)纳米催化剂。为了避免引入残炭,所有的反应物均为无机化合物。利用X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、紫外-可见(UV-Vis)吸收光谱和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)等技术对所制备的CoTe纳米材料进行了表征。结果表明,所得产物为具有六方结构的海绵状CoTe,且具有可见光(λ420 nm)光催化活性。当以N,N-二甲基乙酰胺(DMA)或纯水为溶剂时,二氧化碳(CO_2)均可被光催化还原为甲烷(CH_4),但产率较低。而在催化体系中加入牺牲剂三乙醇胺(TEOA)后,产物由CH_4变为一氧化碳(CO)。这些实验结果表明,溶剂和牺牲剂的引入均可影响CoTe纳米催化剂对CO_2的光催化还原性能。

Crystal structures and enhanced luminescence of Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes containing conjugated organic ligands

By self-assembly of delocalized organic ligands (L¹ and L²) with Cd(SCN)₂, ZnI₂ and Zn(NCS)₂, three luminescent complexes ZnI₂(L¹)₂ (I), [Cd(L¹)₂(μ_1,3-SCN)₂] _n (II) and Zn(NCS)₂(L²)₂ (III) were obtained (L¹ = 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridine-4-yl)ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile and L² = 2-{5,5-dimethyl-3-[2-(pyridine-3-yl)ethenyl]cyclohex-2-enylidene}propanedinitrile). The structures of the complexes were determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis (CIF files CCDC nos. 1406116 (I), 1406115 (II), and 1400360 (III)). In complex I, Zn(II) is coordinated by two functional organic ligands and two I^– ions, to form a I₂N₂ distorted tetrahedral geometry. In 1D coordination polymer II, the Cd(II) centers show six-coordinated geometries, two organic ligands and four SCN^– ions involve in coordination with each Cd(II) center. The thiocyanate groups show μ_1,3-SCN bridging coordination modes and the adjacent Cd(II) ions are bridged by double μ_1,3-SCN ions to form an infinite chain. In complex III, Zn(II) is coordinated by two functional organic ligands and two NCS^– groups, to form a N₄ distorted tetrahedral geometry. Compared with the free ligands, the complexes show superior luminescent property with red-shift and enhancement of fluorescence intensity.     

UPLC fingerprint analysis and identification of flavonoids in Scutellaria indica by UFLC-triple-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry

The aim of this study was to raise the quality control level of Scutellaria indica. A quick and stable ultra performance liquid chromatography method was established for the fingerprint analysis of S. indica. A total of 32 common peaks were marked with 10 batches S. indica detected in 30?min using similarity evaluation system for chromatographic fingerprint of traditional Chinese medicine (2004A version). Besides, a high-resolution mass spectrometer was used to identify flavonoids in S. indica. A total of 27 flavonoids in S. indica were identified. And a series of fragmentation regularities were obtained, which could be used for the identification of other flavonoids. Therefore, the established liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometer method could be successfully utilized for the quality control of S. indica.     

A new construction of the Clifford-Fourier kernel

In this paper, we develop a new method based on the Laplace transform to study the Clifford-Fourier transform. First, the kernel of the Clifford-Fourier transform in the Laplace domain is obtained. When the dimension is even, the inverse Laplace transform may be computed and we obtain the explicit expression for the kernel as a finite sum of Bessel functions. We equally obtain the plane wave decomposition and find new integral representations for the kernel in all dimensions. Finally we define and compute the formal generating function for the even dimensional kernels.     

Optimal mean–variance asset-liability management with stochastic interest rates and inflation risks

This paper considers an optimal asset-liability management problem with stochastic interest rates and inflation risks under the mean–variance framework. It is assumed that there are \(n+1\) assets available in the financial market, including a risk-free asset, a default-free zero-coupon bond, an inflation-indexed bond and \(n-2\) risky assets (stocks). Moreover, the liability of the investor is assumed to follow a geometric Brownian motion process. By using the stochastic dynamic programming principle and Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation approach, we derive the efficient investment strategy and efficient frontier explicitly. Finally, we provide numerical examples to illustrate the effects of model parameters on the efficient investment strategy and efficient frontier.
