Cooling-induced increase of methane cluster size investigated under a Coulomb explosion scheme

In this letter, we discuss the increase in the average cluster size by lowering the stagnation temperature of the methane （CH4） gas. The Coulomb explosion experiments are conducted to estimate the cluster size and the size distribution. The average CH4 cluster sizes Nay of 6 230 and 6 580 are acquired with the source conditions of 30 bars at 240 K and 60 bars at 296 K, respectively. Empirical estimation suggests a five-fold increase in the average size of the CH4 clusters at 240 K compared with that at room temperature under a backing pressure of 30 bars. A strong nonlinear Hagena parameter relation （Г^＊∝ T0^-3.3） for the CH4 clusters is revealed. The results may be favorable for the production of large-sized clusters by using gases at low temperature and high back pressures.

Polyaniline encapsulated silicon nanocomposite as high-performance anode materials for lithium ion batteries

Polyaniline encapsulated silicon (Si/PANI) nanocomposite as anode materials for high-capacity lithium ion batteries has been prepared by an in situ chemical polymerization of aniline monomer in the suspension of Si nanoparticles. The obtained Si/PANI nanocomposite demonstrates a reversible specific capacity of 840 mAh g^?1 after 100 cycles at a rate of 100 mA g^?1 and excellent cycling stability. The enhanced electrochemical performance can be due to that the polyaniline (PANI) matrix offers a continuous electrically conductive network as well as enhances the compatibility of electrode materials and electrolyte as a result of suppressing volume stress of Si during cycles and preventing the agglomeration of Si nanoparticles.     

Sponge Phase Producing Porous CeO2 for Catalytic Oxidation of CO

The aggregation behavior of mixtures of the alkaline amino acid L ‐Arginine (L ‐Arg) and bis(2‐ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (DEHPA) in water was studied in detail. At a fixed L ‐Arg concentration, a phase sequence of micellar phase (L₁ phase), vesicle phase (L_αv phase), planar lamellar phase (L_αl phase), and sponge phase (L₃ phase) was obtained with increasing DEHPA concentration due to changes in the packing parameter. The phase transition of the lamellar structures was determined by freeze‐fracture TEM and ²H NMR spectroscopy. Rheological measurements reflected the phase transition through significant variations of both the elastic modulus and the viscous modulus. Porous CeO₂ materials were produced by utilizing the L₃ phase as template, and the porous CeO₂ exhibited excellent catalytic oxidation activity toward CO due to its high surface area, which provides more active sites for CO conversion.
