Coordination polymer glass from a protic ionic liquid: proton conductivity and mechanical properties as an electrolyte.

ABSTRACT: High proton conducting electrolytes with mechanical moldability are a key material for energy devices. We propose an approach for creating a coordination polymer (CP) glass from a protic ionic liquid for a solid-state anhydrous proton conductor. A protic ionic liquid (dema)(H₂PO₄), with components which also act as bridging ligands, was applied to construct a CP glass (dema)_0.35[Zn(H₂PO₄)_2.35(H₃PO₄)_0.65]. The structural analysis revealed that large Zn-H₂PO₄ ^-/H₃PO₄ coordination networks formed in the CP glass. The network formation results in enhancement of the properties of proton conductivity and viscoelasticity. High anhydrous proton conductivity (σ = 13.3 mS cm^-1 at 120 °C) and a high transport number of the proton (0.94) were achieved by the coordination networks. A fuel cell with this CP glass membrane exhibits a high open-circuit voltage and power density (0.15 W cm^-2) under dry conditions at 120 °C due to the conducting properties and mechanical properties of the CP glass.

Rocking-Chair Proton Batteries with Conducting Redox Polymer Active Materials and Protic Ionic Liquid Electrolytes.

Project description:Rechargeable batteries that use redox-active organic compounds are currently considered an energy storage technology for the future. Functionalizing redox-active groups onto conducting polymers to make conducting redox polymers (CRPs) can effectively solve the low conductivity and dissolution problems of redox-active compounds. Here, we employ a solution-processable postdeposition polymerization (PDP) method, where the rearrangements ensured by partial dissolution of intermediated trimer during polymerization were found significant to produce high-performance CRPs. We show that quinizarin (Qz)- and naphthoquinone (NQ)-based CRPs can reach their theoretical capacity through optimization of the polymerization conditions. Combining the two CRPs, with the Qz-CRP as a cathode, the NQ-CRP as an anode, and a protic ionic liquid electrolyte, yields a 0.8 V proton rocking-chair battery. The conducting additive-free all-organic proton battery exhibits a capacity of 62 mAh/g and a capacity retention of 80% after 500 cycles using rapid potentiostatic charging and galvanostatic discharge at 4.5 C.

Enhanced proton conductivity in a layered coordination polymer.

Project description:[Gd(H4nmp)(H2O)2]Cl·2H2O (1) converts into [Gd2(H3nmp)2]·xH2O (2) (x = 1 to 4) with a notable increase in proton conductivity. 1 is a charged layered material counter balanced by chloride ions, with proton conductivity values of 1.23 × 10-5 S cm-1 at 98% relative humidity (RH) and 40 °C. At 98% RH and 94 °C the observed conductivity is 0.51 S cm-1, being to date one of the highest values ever reported for a proton-conducting coordination polymer. This increase is observed during a structural transformation into 2 that occurs at high temperature and RH. While this remarkable conductivity is observed only after transformation and by maintaining high humidity conditions, as-synthesized 2 also shows a conductivity value of 3.79 × 10-2 S cm-1 at 94 °C and 98% RH, still ranked as one of the highest reported values. Moreover, it is shown that the key factor for high proton conduction is the unusual dynamic structural transformation with water insertion and release of chloride ions.

Proton-conductive coordination polymer glass for solid-state anhydrous proton batteries.

Project description:Designing solid-state electrolytes for proton batteries at moderate temperatures is challenging as most solid-state proton conductors suffer from poor moldability and thermal stability. Crystal-glass transformation of coordination polymers (CPs) and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) via melt-quenching offers diverse accessibility to unique properties as well as processing abilities. Here, we synthesized a glassy-state CP, [Zn3(H2PO4)6(H2O)3](1,2,3-benzotriazole), that exhibited a low melting temperature (114 °C) and a high anhydrous single-ion proton conductivity (8.0 × 10-3 S cm-1 at 120 °C). Converting crystalline CPs to their glassy-state counterparts via melt-quenching not only initiated an isotropic disordered domain that enhanced H+ dynamics, but also generated an immersive interface that was beneficial for solid electrolyte applications. Finally, we demonstrated the first example of a rechargeable all-solid-state H+ battery utilizing the new glassy-state CP, which exhibited a wide operating-temperature range of 25 to 110 °C.

pH Jumps in a Protic Ionic Liquid Proceed by Vehicular Proton Transport.

Project description:The dynamics of excess protons in the protic ionic liquid (PIL) ethylammonium formate (EAF) have been investigated from femtoseconds to microseconds using visible pump mid-infrared probe spectroscopy. The pH jump following the visible photoexcitation of a photoacid (8-hydroxypyrene-1,3,6-trisulfonic acid trisodium salt, HPTS) results in proton transfer to the formate of the EAF. The proton transfer predominantly (∼70%) occurs over picoseconds through a preformed hydrogen-bonded tight complex between HPTS and EAF. We investigate the longer-range and longer-time-scale proton-transport processes in the PIL by obtaining the ground-state conjugate base (RO-) dynamics from the congested transient-infrared spectra. The spectral kinetics indicate that the protons diffuse only a few solvent shells from the parent photoacid before recombining with RO-. A kinetic isotope effect of nearly unity (kH/kD ≈ 1) suggests vehicular transfer and the transport of excess protons in this PIL. Our findings provide comprehensive insight into the complete photoprotolytic cycle of excess protons in a PIL.

Elucidating interactions and conductivity of newly synthesised low bandgap polymer with protic and aprotic ionic liquids.

Project description:In this paper, we have examined the conductivity and interaction studies of ammonium and imidazolium based ionic liquids (ILs) with the newly synthesised low bandgap polymer (Poly(2-heptadecyl-4-vinylthieno[3,4-d]thiazole) (PHVTT)). Use of low bandgap polymers is the most suitable way to harvest a broader spectrum of solar radiations for solar cells. But, still there is lack of most efficient low bandgap polymer. In order to solve this problem, we have synthesised a new low bandgap polymer and investigated its interaction with the ILs to enhance its conductivity. ILs may undergo almost unlimited structural variations; these structural variations have attracted extensive attention in polymer studies. The aim of present work is to illustrate the state of art progress of implementing the interaction of ILs (protic and aprotic ILs) with newly synthesised low bandgap polymer. In addition to this, our UV-Vis spectroscopy, confocal Raman spectroscopy and FT-IR spectroscopy results have revealed that all studied ILs (tributylmethylammonium methyl sulfate ([N1444][MeSO4] from ammonium family) and 1-methylimidazolium chloride ([Mim]Cl, and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl from imidazolium family) have potential to interact with polymer. Our semi empirical calculation with help of Hyperchem 7 shows that protic IL ([Mim]Cl) interacts strongly with the low bandgap polymer through the H-bonding. Further, protic ILs shows enhanced conductivity than aprotic ILs in association with low bandgap polymer. This study provides the combined effect of low bandgap polymer and ILs that may generate many theoretical and experimental opportunities.

Enhancing ionic conductivity in solid electrolyte by relocating diffusion ions to under-coordination sites.

Project description:Solid electrolytes are highly important materials for improving safety, energy density, and reversibility of electrochemical energy storage batteries. However, it is a challenge to modulate the coordination structure of conducting ions, which limits the improvement of ionic conductivity and hampers further development of practical solid electrolytes. Here, we present a skeleton-retained cationic exchange approach to produce a high-performance solid electrolyte of Li3Zr2Si2PO12 stemming from the NASICON-type superionic conductor of Na3Zr2Si2PO12. The introduced lithium ions stabilized in under-coordination structures are facilitated to pass through relatively large conduction bottlenecks inherited from the Na3Zr2Si2PO12 precursor. The synthesized Li3Zr2Si2PO12 achieves a low activation energy of 0.21 eV and a high ionic conductivity of 3.59 mS cm-1 at room temperature. Li3Zr2Si2PO12 not only inherits the satisfactory air survivability from Na3Zr2Si2PO12 but also exhibits excellent cyclic stability and rate capability when applied to solid-state batteries. The present study opens an innovative avenue to regulate cationic occupancy and make new materials.

An Electrochemical Amperometric Ethylene Sensor with Solid Polymer Electrolyte Based on Ionic Liquid.

Project description:An electrochemical amperometric ethylene sensor with solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) and semi-planar three electrode topology involving a working, pseudoreference, and counter electrode is presented. The polymer electrolyte is based on the ionic liquid 1-butyl 3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide [BMIM][NTf2] immobilized in a poly(vinylidene fluoride) matrix. An innovative aerosol-jet printing technique was used to deposit the gold working electrode (WE) on the solid polymer electrolyte layer to make a unique electrochemical active SPE/WE interface. The analyte, gaseous ethylene, was detected by oxidation at 800 mV vs. the platinum pseudoreference electrode. The sensor parameters such as sensitivity, response/recovery time, repeatability, hysteresis, and limits of detection and quantification were determined and their relation to the morphology and microstructure of the SPE/WE interface examined. The use of additive printing techniques for sensor preparation demonstrates the potential of polymer electrolytes with respect to the mass production of printed electrochemical gas sensors.

Polyzwitterion-SiO<sub>2</sub> Double-Network Polymer Electrolyte with High Strength and High Ionic Conductivity.

Project description:The key to developing high-performance polymer electrolytes (PEs) is to achieve their high strength and high ionic conductivity, but this is still challenging. Herein, we designed a new double-network PE based on the nonhydrolytic sol-gel reaction of tetraethyl orthosilicate and in situ polymerization of zwitterions. The as-prepared PE possesses high strength (0.75 Mpa) and high stretchability (560%) due to the efficient dissipation energy of the inorganic network and elastic characteristics of the polymer network. In addition, the highest ionic conductivity of the PE reaches 0.44 mS cm-1 at 30 °C owning to the construction of dynamic ion channels between the polyzwitterion segments and between the polyzwitterion segments and ionic liquids. Furthermore, the inorganic network can act as Lewis acid to adsorb trace impurities, resulting in a prepared electrolyte with a high electrochemical window over 5 V. The excellent interface compatibility of the as-prepared PE with a Li metal electrode is also confirmed. Our work provides new insights into the design and preparation of high-performance polymer-based electrolytes for solid-state energy storage devices.

Silica gel solid nanocomposite electrolytes with interfacial conductivity promotion exceeding the bulk Li-ion conductivity of the ionic liquid electrolyte filler.

Project description:The transition to solid-state Li-ion batteries will enable progress toward energy densities of 1000 W·hour/liter and beyond. Composites of a mesoporous oxide matrix filled with nonvolatile ionic liquid electrolyte fillers have been explored as a solid electrolyte option. However, the simple confinement of electrolyte solutions inside nanometer-sized pores leads to lower ion conductivity as viscosity increases. Here, we demonstrate that the Li-ion conductivity of nanocomposites consisting of a mesoporous silica monolith with an ionic liquid electrolyte filler can be several times higher than that of the pure ionic liquid electrolyte through the introduction of an interfacial ice layer. Strong adsorption and ordering of the ionic liquid molecules render them immobile and solid-like as for the interfacial ice layer itself. The dipole over the adsorbate mesophase layer results in solvation of the Li+ ions for enhanced conduction. The demonstrated principle of ion conduction enhancement can be applied to different ion systems.

Direct-Write Formation and Dissolution of Silver Nanofilaments in Ionic Liquid-Polymer Electrolyte Composites.

Project description:Materials with reconfigurable optical properties are candidates for applications such as optical cloaking and wearable sensors. One approach to fabricate these materials is to use external fields to form and dissolve nanoscale conductive channels in well-defined locations within a polymer. In this study, conductive atomic force microscopy is used to electrochemically form and dissolve nanoscale conductive filaments at spatially distinct points in a polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA)-based electrolyte blended with varying amounts of ionic liquid (IL) and silver salt. The fastest filament formation and dissolution times are detected in a PEGDA/IL composite that has the largest modulus (several GPa) and the highest polymer crystal fraction. This is unexpected because filament formation and dissolution events are controlled by ion transport, which is typically faster within amorphous regions where polymer mobility is high. Filament kinetics in primarily amorphous and crystalline regions are measured, and two different mechanisms are observed. The formation time distributions show a power-law dependence in the crystalline regions, attributable to hopping-based ion transport, while amorphous regions show a normal distribution. The results indicate that the timescale of filament formation/dissolution is determined by local structure, and suggest that structure could be used to tune the optical properties of the film.
