Cobalt-Doped Porous Carbon Nanosheets Derived from 2D Hypercrosslinked Polymer with CoN₄ for High Performance Electrochemical Capacitors.

ABSTRACT: Cobalt-doped graphene-coupled hypercrosslinked polymers (Co-GHCP) have been successfully prepared on a large scale, using an efficient RAFT (Reversible Addition-Fragmentation Chain Transfer Polymerization) emulsion polymerization and nucleophilic substitution reaction with Co (II) porphyrin. The Co-GHCP could be transformed into cobalt-doped porous carbon nanosheets (Co-GPC) through direct pyrolysis treatment. Such a Co-GPC possesses a typical 2D morphology with a high specific surface area of 257.8 m² g^-1. These intriguing properties of transition metal-doping, high conductivity, and porous structure endow the Co-GPC with great potential applications in energy storage and conversion. Utilized as an electrode material in a supercapacitor, the Co-GPC exhibited a high electrochemical capacitance of 455 F g^-1 at a specific current of 0.5 A g^-1. After 2000 charge/discharge cycles, at a current density of 1 A g^-1, the specific capacitance increased by almost 6.45%, indicating the excellent capacitance and durability of Co-GPC. These results demonstrated that incorporation of metal porphyrin into the framework of a hypercrosslinked polymer is a facile strategy to prepare transition metal-doped porous carbon for energy storage applications.

Efficient All-2D Amorphous Cobalt Sulfide Nanosheets/Multilayered Molybdenum Disulfide Hybrid Heterojunction Catalyst for Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution.

Project description:Hydrogen energy is considered to be a critical environmentally friendly and widely sourced renewable energy source that can be used as an alternative to fossil fuels. At present, the preparation of hydrogen (H2) mainly depends on traditional fossil fuels. In order to achieve sustainable development of environmental protection, great attention has been paid to the preparation of H2 by electrocatalysis, photocatalysis, and photoelectrochemistry. Here, it is reported for the first time that a novel active catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction, consisting of all-2D amorphous nanosheets/2D crystal layer heterojunction structure and without any noble metal (no precious metals are present in the preparation or measuring), is almost entirely fabricated by laser ablation in liquid (LAL) growth of amorphous cobalt sulfide on the surface of multilayered molybdenum disulfide. In acidic media, the amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets/multilayered molybdenum disulfide (a-CoS/MoS2) catalyst exhibits fast hydrogen evolution kinetics with onset potential of -147 mV and a Tafel slope of 126 mV per decade, which is much better than only the amorphous cobalt sulfide and molybdenum disulfide layer. The high hydrogen evolution activity of the amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets/multilayered molybdenum disulfide hybrid is likely due to the unique electrocatalytic synergistic effects between hydrogen evolution-active amorphous cobalt sulfide nanosheets and layered crystal molybdenum disulfide materials, as well as the much-increased catalytic sites. This work provides a new general route based on all-2D amorphous nanosheets/2D crystal structure for designing and preparing novel layered materials with effectively manipulated catalytic properties and active functionality surface.

Porous hypercrosslinked polymer-TiO2-graphene composite photocatalysts for visible-light-driven CO2 conversion.

Project description:Significant efforts have been devoted to develop efficient visible-light-driven photocatalysts for the conversion of CO2 to chemical fuels. The photocatalytic efficiency for this transformation largely depends on CO2 adsorption and diffusion. However, the CO2 adsorption on the surface of photocatalysts is generally low due to their low specific surface area and the lack of matched pores. Here we report a well-defined porous hypercrosslinked polymer-TiO2-graphene composite structure with relatively high surface area i.e., 988?m2?g-1 and CO2 uptake capacity i.e., 12.87?wt%. This composite shows high photocatalytic performance especially for CH4 production, i.e., 27.62??mol?g-1?h-1, under mild reaction conditions without the use of sacrificial reagents or precious metal co-catalysts. The enhanced CO2 reactivity can be ascribed to their improved CO2 adsorption and diffusion, visible-light absorption, and photo-generated charge separation efficiency. This strategy provides new insights into the combination of microporous organic polymers with photocatalysts for solar-to-fuel conversion.

Nitrogen-doped micro-nano carbon spheres with multi-scale pore structure obtained from interpenetrating polymer networks for electrochemical capacitors.

Project description:A chemical process was developed to prepare N-doped micro-nano carbon spheres with multi-scale pore structures via carbonization of N-PF/PMMA interpenetrating polymer networks, which contain melamine resin as the nitrogen source, PF as the carbon source, and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as the pore-former. The N-content of N-doped micro-nano carbon spheres was controlled by adjusting the mass ratio of melamine and phenol before polymerization. The N-doped micro-nano carbon spheres as electrode materials possess appropriate pore size distribution, higher specific surface area (559 m2 g-1) and consistently dispersed nitrogen atoms with adjustable doping content. These distinct characteristics endow the prospective electrode materials with excellent performance in electrochemical capacitors. In particular, N-CS-IPN-4 exhibits the highest specific capacitance of 364 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1 in 6 M KOH aqueous electrolyte in a three-electrode system. It also possesses superior rate capability (57.7% retention at current densities ranging from 0.5 to 50 A g-1) and excellent cycling performance at 2 A g-1 (100% retention after 10 000 cycles). All these results confirm that the N-doped micro-nano carbon spheres are promising electrochemical capacitor materials, which possesses the advantages of simple preparation procedure, multi-scale pore structures, higher specific surface areas, easy adjustment of N-content and excellent electrochemical properties.

Synthesis and performance of binder-free porous carbon electrodes in electrochemical capacitors.

Project description:Porous binder-free carbon electrodes were obtained by impregnating cellulose filter papers with phenolic resin through soft-salt template synthesis and thermal pyrolysis. These self-standing electrodes were used directly in a supercapacitor device. To understand the impacts of filter paper (FP) thickness on carbon filter paper (CFP) morphology, porosity, and surface functionalities, five different materials were examined. The CFP electrode thickness was adjusted linearly with the FP thickness to produce electrodes ranging from 100 to ∼800 μm. As the thickness of the CFP increased, there was an increase in the specific surface area and oxygen-based functionalities. Electrochemical testing in a 1 M KOH aqueous electrolyte demonstrated that electrode thickness played a key role in electrochemical capacitor (EC) performance, i.e., capacitance enhances linearly when the electrode becomes thinner. For low thicknesses (<280 μm), the capacitance and rate capability decreased slightly with increasing thickness; for high thicknesses, the performance drastically degraded despite the high specific surface area and oxygen surface functionalities. This effect was amplified at high regimes, indicating that high electrode thicknesses and fiber diameters limited electrolyte diffusion in the applied synthesis conditions. Thus, the high material porosity was inaccessible to ion adsorption. Consequently, thinner electrodes showed the highest capacitance (197 F g-1 at 0.1 A g-1) and rate capability (81%) values, exceeding those of their traditional binder-electrode counterparts prepared under similar conditions. Finally, for alkali metal hydroxide solutions, 1 M KOH exhibited a cation match with the salt template (KCl), while CsOH achieved additional capacitance retention (88% at 10 A g-1). Complex ion adsorption mechanisms were observed through a quartz crystal microbalance.

Conversion of CO2 into Chloropropene Carbonate Catalyzed by Iron (II) Phthalocyanine Hypercrosslinked Porous Organic Polymer.

Project description:Commercial iron (II) phthalocyanine (FePc) was knitted with biphenyl using a Friedel-Crafts reaction to yield a micro-meso porous organic polymer (FePc-POP) with a specific surface area of 427 m2/g and 5.42% of iron loading. This strategy allowed for the direct synthesis of a heterogeneous catalyst from an iron containing monomer. The catalytic system, formed by the knitted polymer containing FePc and DMAP (4-dimethylamino pyridine) as base, results in an efficient heterogeneous catalyst in the cycloaddition of CO2 to epichlorohydrin to selectively obtain the corresponding cyclic carbonate. Thus, a TON (mmol substrate converted/mmol catalysts used) value of 2700 was reached in 3 h under mild reaction conditions (solvent free, 90 °C, 3 bar of CO2). The catalyst does not exhibit leaching during the reactions, which was attributed to the excellent stability of the metal in the macrocycle.

P-doped porous carbon derived from walnut shell for zinc ion hybrid capacitors.

Project description:Zinc ion hybrid capacitors (ZHCs) are expected to be candidates for large-scale energy storage products due to their high power density and large energy density. Due to their low cost and stability, carbon materials are generally the first choice for the cathode of ZHCs, but they face a challenge in the serious self-discharge behavior. Herein, zinc ion hybrid capacitors with high-performance are successfully assembled using a porous carbon cathode derived from low-cost p-doped waste biomass and a commercial zinc foil anode. The p-doped walnut shell ZHCs delivered a specific capacity of 158.9 mA h g-1 with an energy density of 127.1 W h kg-1 at a low current density. More importantly, the device had outstanding anti-self-discharge characteristics (retaining 77.98% of its specific capacity after a 72 h natural self-discharge test) and long-term cycle stability (retaining 88.2% of its initial specific capacity after 15 000 cycles at 7.5 A g-1). This work presents guidance and support for the design and optimization of electrode materials for zinc ion supercapacitors and next-generation aqueous zinc ion energy storage performance.

Ultrathin 2D Cobalt Zeolite-Imidazole Framework Nanosheets for Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution.

Project description:2D layered materials, including metal-di-chalcogenides and transition metal layered double hydroxides, among others, are intensively studied because of new properties that emerge from their 2D confinement, which are attractive for advanced applications. Herein, 2D cobalt ion (Co2+) and benzimidazole (bIm) based zeolite-imidazole framework nanosheets, ZIF-9(III), are reported as exceptionally efficient electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Specifically, liquid-phase ultrasonication is applied to exfoliate a [Co4(bIm)16] zeolite-imidazole framework (ZIF), named as ZIF-9(III) phase, into nanoscale sheets. ZIF-9(III) is selectively prepared through simple mechanical grinding of cobalt nitrate and benzimidazole in the presence of a small amount of ethanol. The resultant exfoliated nanosheets exhibit significantly higher OER activity in alkaline conditions than the corresponding bulk phases ZIF-9 and ZIF-9(III). The electrochemical and physicochemical characterization data support the assignment of the OER activity of the exfoliated nanosheet derived material to nitrogen coordinated cobalt oxyhydroxide N4CoOOH sites, following a mechanism known for Co-porphyrin and related systems. Thus, exfoliated 2D nanosheets hold promise as potential alternatives to commercial noble metal electrocatalysts for the OER.

2D Zinc-Based Metal-Organic Complexes Derived N-Doped Porous Carbon Nanosheets as Durable Air Cathode for Rechargeable Zn-Air Batteries.

Project description:The defect and N-doping engineering are critical to developing the highly efficient metal-free electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), mainly because they can efficiently regulate the geometric/electronic structures and sur-/interface properties of the carbon matrix. Herein, we provide a facile and scalable strategy for the large-scale synthesis of N-doped porous carbon nanosheets (NPCNs) with hierarchical pore structure, only involving solvothermal and pyrolysis processes. Additionally, the turnover frequency of ORR (TOFORR) was calculated by taking into account the electron-transfer number (n). Benefiting from the trimodal pore structures, high specific surface area, a higher pore volume, high-ratio mesopores, massive vacancies/long-range structural defects, and high-content pyridinic-N (~2.1%), the NPCNs-1000 shows an excellent ORR activity (1600 rpm, js = ~5.99 mA cm-2), a selectivity to four-electron ORR (~100%) and a superior stability in both the three-electrode tests (CP test for 7500 s at 0.8 V, Δjs = ~0.58 mA cm-2) and Zn-Air battery (a negligible loss of 0.08 V within 265 h). Besides, the experimental results indicate that the enhancement of ORR activity mainly originates from the defects and pyridinic-N. More significantly, this work is expected to realize green and efficient energy storage and conversion along with the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.

Porous Cobalt Sulfide Selenium Nanorods for Electrochemical Hydrogen Evolution.

Project description:A key process in electrochemical energy technology is hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). However, its electrochemical properties mainly depend on the catalytic activity of the material itself. Therefore, it is important to find efficient electrocatalysts to realize clean hydrogen production. As a typical kind of catalytic materials, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMCs) play important roles in the field of energy catalysis. As a representative of TMCs, cobalt disulfide (CoS2), recently has raised much research interest owing to its abundant reserves, environmental friendliness, and excellent electrochemical stability. Meanwhile, given the fact that doping is one of the effective methods to improve the electrochemical catalytic property, various means of doping have been researched. Here, we report for the first time that porous-like Se-CoS2-x (or Se:CoS2-x ) nanorod can be facilely synthesized via a controllable two-step strategy. It is demonstrated that doping Se can greatly improve the catalytic performance of CoS2 electrode. The electrode can obtain a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at overpotential of only ∼260 mV. And the current changes with the applied bias voltage in an obvious stepped pattern, in the chronopotential (CP) curve of Se-CoS2-x , indicating its outstanding mass transfer property and mechanical stability.

Ferroelectricity-Enhanced Piezo-Phototronic Effect in 2D V-Doped ZnO Nanosheets.

Project description:Emerging 2D electronic materials have shown great potential for regulating and controlling optoelectronic processes. A 2D ferroelectric semiconductor coupled with the piezo-phototronic effect may bring unprecedented functional characteristics. Here, a heterojunction photodetector made of p-Si/V-doped-ferroelectric-ZnO 2D nanosheets (FESZ-PD) is fabricated, and the ferroelectricity-enhanced piezo-phototronic effect on the photoresponse behavior of the FESZ-PD is carefully investigated. By introducing the ferroelectricity and the piezo-phototronic effect, improved current rectification performance is achieved and the photoresponse performance of the heterojunction is enhanced in a broad spectral range. The applied voltage bias during measurement naturally causes ferroelectric spontaneous polarizations to align, resulting in a change in band structure near the interface and the local piezo-phototronic effect. The modulated energy band promotes the generation, separation, and transportation efficiency of photogenerated carriers greatly. Compared with the Si/ZnO 2D nanosheets photodetector without ferroelectricity under strain-free conditions, the photoresponsivity R of the FESZ-PD increases by 2.4 times when applying a -0.20‰ compressive strain at +1 V forward bias. These results confirm the feasibility of coupling the ferroelectricity with the piezo-phototronic effect in 2D ferroelectric materials to enhance the photoresponse behavior, which provides a good way to enable the development of high-performance electronic and optoelectronic devices.
