NASICON-Structured NaTi₂(PO₄)₃ for Sustainable Energy Storage.

ABSTRACT: Several emerging energy storage technologies and systems have been demonstrated that feature low cost, high rate capability, and durability for potential use in large-scale grid and high-power applications. Owing to its outstanding ion conductivity, ultrafast Na-ion insertion kinetics, excellent structural stability, and large theoretical capacity, the sodium superionic conductor (NASICON)-structured insertion material NaTi₂(PO₄)₃ (NTP) has attracted considerable attention as the optimal electrode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) and Na-ion hybrid capacitors (NHCs). On the basis of recent studies, NaTi₂(PO₄)₃ has raised the rate capabilities, cycling stability, and mass loading of rechargeable SIBs and NHCs to commercially acceptable levels. In this comprehensive review, starting with the structures and electrochemical properties of NTP, we present recent progress in the application of NTP to SIBs, including non-aqueous batteries, aqueous batteries, aqueous batteries with desalination, and sodium-ion hybrid capacitors. After a thorough discussion of the unique NASICON structure of NTP, various strategies for improving the performance of NTP electrode have been presented and summarized in detail. Further, the major challenges and perspectives regarding the prospects for the use of NTP-based electrodes in energy storage systems have also been summarized to offer a guideline for further improving the performance of NTP-based electrodes.

Sustainable Materials for Sustainable Energy Storage: Organic Na Electrodes.

Project description:In this review, we summarize research efforts to realize Na-based organic materials for novel battery chemistries. Na is a more abundant element than Li, thereby contributing to less costly materials with limited to no geopolitical constraints while organic electrode materials harvested from biomass resources provide the possibility of achieving renewable battery components with low environmental impact during processing and recycling. Together, this can form the basis for truly sustainable electrochemical energy storage. We explore the efforts made on electrode materials of organic salts, primarily carbonyl compounds but also Schiff bases, unsaturated compounds, nitroxides and polymers. Moreover, sodiated carbonaceous materials derived from biomasses and waste products are surveyed. As a conclusion to the review, some shortcomings of the currently investigated materials are highlighted together with the major limitations for future development in this field. Finally, routes to move forward in this direction are suggested.

Willow Bark for Sustainable Energy Storage Systems.

Project description:Willow bark is a byproduct from forestry and is obtained at an industrial scale. We upcycled this byproduct in a two-step procedure into sustainable electrode materials for symmetrical supercapacitors using organic electrolytes. The procedure employed precarbonization followed by carbonization using different types of KOH activation protocols. The obtained electrode materials had a hierarchically organized pore structure and featured a high specific surface area (>2500 m2 g-1) and pore volume (up to 1.48 cm3 g-1). The assembled supercapacitors exhibited capacitances up to 147 F g-1 in organic electrolytes concomitant with excellent cycling performance over 10,000 cycles at 0.6 A g-1 using coin cells. The best materials exhibited a capacity retention of 75% when changing scan rates from 2 to 100 mV s-1.

Synthesis and Characterizations of Na4MnCr(PO4)3/rGO as NASICON-Type Cathode Materials for Sodium-ion Batteries.

Project description:NASICON-type Na4MnCr(PO4)3 (NMCP) wrapped with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was synthesized via a simple sol-gel method as composite cathode material Na4MnCr(PO4)3/rGO (NMCP/rGO) for Na ion batteries. The surface morphology, crystal structure and pore size distribution of pristine NMCP and as-synthesized NMCP/rGO composite cathode are identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission-scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), the Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The electrochemical performance of composition-optimized NMCP/rGO composite cathode presents stable capacity retention and rate capability. The capacity retention of as-synthesized NMCP/rGO composite is 63.8%, and average coulombic efficiency maintains over 98.7% for 200 cycles. The reversible capacity of as-synthesized NMCP/rGO composite cathode still retained 45 mAh/g and 38 mAh/g under a current density of 0.5 A/g and 1.0 A/g, respectively, which was better than that of pristine NMCP, with only 6 mAh/g and 4 mAh/g. The redox reactions of pristine NMCP and as-synthesized NMCP/rGO composite are studied via cyclic voltammetry. The improved electronic conductivity and structure stability of bare NMCP is attributed to the contribution of the rGO coating.

Na(4)FeFe(PO(4))(3), a new synthetic NASICON-type phosphate.

Project description:This paper reports the crystal structure of tetra-sodium diiron tris(phosphate), Na(4)Fe(2+)Fe(3+)(PO(4))(3), which has been synthesized hydro-thermally at 773 K and 0.1 GPa. The crystal structure has been refined in the space group Rc and is identical to that of γ-NASICON. The heteropolyhedral framework is based on a regular alternation, in three dimensions, of corner-sharing PO(4) tetra-hedra and FeO(6) octa-hedra, constituting so-called 'lantern units' stacked along the c axis. The Na(+) cations are distributed over two crystallographic sites: the six-coordinated Na1 site which lies between two 'lantern units', and the eight-coordinated Na2 site which lies at the same z value as the P site.

MoS2 nanoflower decorated bio-derived chitosan nanocomposites for sustainable energy storage: Structural, optical and electrochemical studies.

Project description:Bio-derived chitosan-molybdenum di sulfide (Cs-MoS2) nanocomposites are prepared by a simple and economical aqueous casting method with varying concentrations of MoS2. The structural, surface morphological, optical, and electrochemical properties of the nanocomposites were studied. FTIR analysis reveals the strong interaction between Cs and MoS2. FESEM micrograph showed an increment of the surface roughness due to the incorporation of MoS2 layers into Cs. The surface wettability of the nanocomposites was found to be decreased from 73° to 33° due to the incorporation of MoS2 into the chitosan. UV-vis spectroscopy study demonstrates a reduction of optical bandgap from 4.29 to 3.44 eV as the nanofiller, MoS2, introduces localized states within the forbidden energy bandgap. The incorporation of MoS2 was found to increase the specific capacitance of Cs from 421 mFg-1 to 1589 mFg-1 at a current density of 100 μAg-1. The EIS analysis revealed an increase in the pseudo-capacitance from 0.09 μF to 4.13 μF and a reduction of charge transfer resistance that comes from the nanofiller contribution. MoS2 nanoflower introduces more active sites and expands the electroactive zone, thus improving the charge storage property of Cs. The Cs-MoS2 may offer a new route for the synthesis of eco-friendly, biodegradable, and electrical storage devices.

pH-controlled synthesis of sustainable lauric acid/SiO2 phase change material for scalable thermal energy storage.

Project description:Lauric acid (LA) has been recommended as economic, eco-friendly, and commercially viable materials to be used as phase change materials (PCMs). Nevertheless, there is lack of optimized parameters to produce microencapsulated PCMs with good performance. In this study, different amounts of LA have been chosen as core materials while tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) as the precursor solution to form silicon dioxide (SiO2) shell. The pH of precursor solution was kept at 2.5 for all composition of microencapsulated LA. The synthesized microencapsulated LA/SiO2 has been characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The SEM and TEM confirm the microencapsulation of LA with SiO2. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) revealed better thermal stability of microencapsulated LA/SiO2 compared to pure LA. PCM with 50% LA i.e. LAPC-6 exhibited the highest encapsulation efficiency (96.50%) and encapsulation ratio (96.15%) through Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) as well as good thermal reliability even after 30th cycle of heating and cooling process.

The rapid microwave-assisted hydrothermal synthesis of NASICON-structured Na3V2O2x (PO4)2F3-2x (0 < x ≤ 1) cathode materials for Na-ion batteries.

Project description:NASICON-structured Na3V2O2x (PO4)2F3-2x (0 < x ≤ 1) solid solutions have been prepared using a microwave-assisted hydrothermal (MW-HT) technique. Well-crystallized phases were obtained for x = 1 and 0.4 by reacting V2O5, NH4H2PO4, and NaF precursors at temperatures as low as 180-200 °C for less than 15 min. Various available and inexpensive reducing agents were used to control the vanadium oxidation state and final product morphology. The vanadium oxidation state and O/F ratios were assessed using electron energy loss spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. According to electron diffraction and powder X-ray diffraction, the Na3V2O2x (PO4)2F3-2x solid solutions crystallized in a metastable disordered I4/mmm structure (a = 6.38643(4) Å, c = 10.62375(8) Å for Na3V2O2(PO4)2F and a = 6.39455(5) Å, c = 10.6988(2) Å for Na3V2O0.8(PO4)2F2.2). With respect to electrochemical Na+ (de)insertion as positive electrodes (cathodes) for Na-ion batteries, the as-synthesized materials displayed two sloping plateaus upon charge and discharge, centered near 3.5-3.6 V and 4.0-4.1 V vs. Na+/Na, respectively, with a reversible capacity of ∼110 mA h g-1. The application of a conducting carbon coating through the surface polymerization of dopamine with subsequent annealing at 500 °C improved both the rate capability (∼55 mA h g-1 at a discharge rate of 10C) and capacity retention (∼93% after 50 cycles at a discharge rate of C/2).
