应变对层状锰系锂离子电池正极材料输出电压的影响

利用第一性原理方法系统研究了不同应 变模式对LiMnO₂和Li₂MnO₃输出电压的影响, 建立了输出电压与弹性常数及应变之间的关系. 发现所有应变对输出电压都是降低的, 且应变效应是各向异性的. 大部分的单轴应变5%时对输出电压的降低都小于0.1 V. 由于层状的电极材料层间的键合作用较弱, 且受脱锂后形成的锂空位影响较大, 当从锂层脱出锂时, 垂直于层方向的应变对输出电压影响较大; 而对Li₂MnO₃系统从过渡金属层中脱锂时, 平行于层的应变对输出电压影响更大. Li₂MnO₃骨架支撑的层状固溶体系中, 应变使高电压充电阶段的电压维持在截断电压之下, 并打开过渡金属层中锂的迁移通道, 产生较为持久的充电而可能获得较大的充电容量.     

C60: A host lattice for the intercalation of oxygen?

The investigation of structural and electronic properties of the novel family of fullerenes depends on the existence of pure reference materials. Sublimation of the van-der Waals solids is a suitable purification method. Little attention has been paid to the question about the air stability of such sublimed samples in form of crystals or thin films. A combination of thermal desorption spectroscopy, thermal analysis and diffuse reflectance FT-IR spectroscopy is used to show the extent to which oxygen from dry air is intercalated into fullerenes and which detrimental reactivity occurs from attempts to thermally remove (nneal) air-exposed samples. The conclusion is that any fullerene sample exposed to air will be transformed in part into a polymeric non-fullerene carbon upon thermal treatment to above 400 K irrespective of its initial purity.Dedicated to Professor Dr. rer. nat.

Effect of the ZnNi y Mn2– y O4 (0 ≤ y ≤ 1) spinel composition on electrochemical lithium insertion

The electrochemical insertion of lithium in the spinel-type manganite with the formula ZnNi _y Mn_{2– y} O₄ has been studied. The galvanostatic discharge curves show that the best performance is obtained for y = 0.25, where a tetragonal to cubic structural transformation occurs. The thermodynamics and kinetics of the process of insertion of the lithium into the tetragonal spinel Li _x ZnNi_0.25Mn_1.75O₄ (x = 0.05–1.3) have been studied. The molar thermodynamic quantities, such as enthalpy, entropy and free energy determined by EMF-T measurements, varied with the lithium concentration in the oxide structure, and a major variation was observed around x = 0.8. The chemical diffusion coefficient of lithium in these spinels was also determined. Structural analysis, degree of oxidation and magnetic susceptibility measurements were carried out for the lithiated oxides in order to obtain the cationic distribution as a function of x. It has been possible to demonstrate that, upon lithium insertion, Mn⁴⁺ ions on B sites are reduced to Mn³⁺ and then to Mn²⁺. A cooperative Jahn-Teller effect is present in these spinel manganese-nickel oxides. Received: 4 February 1997 / Accepted: 11 April 1997     

MIL-101(Cr) Microporous Nanocrystals Intercalating Graphene Oxide Membrane for Efficient Hydrogen Purification

Graphene oxide (GO) is a promising two-dimensional building block for fabricating high-performance gas separation membranes. Whereas the tortuous transport pathway may increase the transport distance and lead to a low gas permeation rate, introducing spacers into GO laminates is an effective strategy to enlarge the interlayer channel for enhanced gas permeance. Herein, we propose to intercalate CO₂-philic MIL-101(Cr) metal-organic framework nanocrystals into the GO laminates to construct a 2D/3D hybrid structure for gas separation. The interlayer channels were partially opened up to accelerate gas permeation. Meanwhile, the intrinsic pores of MIL-101 provided additional transport pathways, and the affinity of MIL-101 to CO₂ molecules resulted in higher H₂/CO₂ diffusion selectivity, leading to a simultaneous enhancement in gas permeance and separation selectivity. The MIL-101(Cr)/GO membrane with optimal structures exhibited outstanding and stable mixed-gas separation performance with H₂ permeance of 67.5 GPU and H₂/CO₂ selectivity of 30.3 during the 120-h continuous test, demonstrating its potential in H₂ purification application.     

Highly elastic cobweb-like SiO/CNF composites with reconstructed heterostructure for high-efficient lithium storage

The silicon-based materials are promising candidates for lithium-ion batteries owing to their high energy density. However, achieving long lifespan under realistic conditions remains a challenge because of the volume expansion and low conductivity. In this work, the highly elastic cobweb-like composite materials consisted by SiO and nanofibers are designed and fabricated for high-efficient lithium storage by ball-milling & electrostatic spinning method. The reconstructed heterostructure and highly elastic nanofibers can simultaneously increase the conductivity and inhibit the “expansion effect” of silicon-based materials. The constructed electrode of n-SiO/CNF delivers an initial capacity of 1700 mAh/g, and maintains the capacities over 1000 mAh/g after 100 cycles at the current density of 500 mA/g. Meanwhile, this electrode can give an initial coulombic efficiency over 85% and maintains at 98% in the following charge/discharge processes. Furthermore, it exhibits efficient long-term electrochemical performance, maintaining the capacity at about 1000 mAh/g at a high current density of 1000 mA/g after 1000 cycles. This work could provide a promising strategy for enhancing the performance of silicon-based composite materials for practical application in lithium-ion batteries.

Base-freie Tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl-Derivate des Lithiums,Aluminiums, Galliums und Indiums

Base-free Tris(trimethylsilyl)methyl Derivatives of Lithium, Aluminium, Gallium, and Indium Base-free LiR* (R*=-C(SiMe₃)₃) has been prepared from R*Cl and Li-metal in toluene at 85?90°C and used to synthesize the metallanes R*MMe₂ with M = Al, Ga and In, respectively. The NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ²⁹Si) and the vibrational spectra of these trisyl compounds have been discussed. AlCl₃ and LiR*(ratio 1 : 1) forms the metallate metallate Li[R*AlCl₃]. The triclinic unit cell (space group P1 ) consists of a centrosymmetric assoziate, formed by four Li[R*AlCl₃]- units with Al? Cl…?Li bridges, two pairs of Li-atoms differing in their chlorine-coordination and two disordered toluene molecules, inserted in the crystal lattice (R₁wR₂ =0,0444/0,1072). The reaction of GaCl₃ with LiR* (I :1) gives the unusual sesquichloride (R*Ga(Cl_1,33)Me_0,67)₃ in moderate yield. The X-ray structure determination shows a Ga₃Cl₃-skeleton with chairconformation and disordered, terminal gallium ligands (R₁/wR₂= 0,0646/0,2270).
