Mixed-metal phosphates K_1.64Na_0.36TiFe(PO₄)₃ and K_0.97Na_1.03Ti_1.26Fe_0.74(PO₄)₃ with a langbeinite framework.

ABSTRACT: Single crystals of the langbeinite-type phosphates K_1.65Na_0.35TiFe(PO₄)₃ and K_0.97Na_1.03Ti_1.26Fe_0.74(PO₄)₃ were grown by crystallization from high-temperature self-fluxes in the system Na₂O-K₂O-P₂O₅-TiO₂-Fe₂O₃ using fixed molar ratios of (Na+K):P = 1.0, Ti:P = 0.20 and Na:K = 1.0 or 2.0 over the temperature range 1273-953 K. The three-dimensional framework of the two isotypic phosphates are built up from [(Ti/Fe)₂(PO₄)₃] structure units containing two mixed [(Ti/Fe)O₆] octa-hedra (site symmetry 3) connected via three bridging PO₄ tetra-hedra. The potassium and sodium cations share two different sites in the structure that are located in the cavities of the framework. One of these sites has nine and the other twelve surrounding O atoms.

Partial Substitution of Potassium with Sodium in the K2Ti2(PO4)3 Langbeinite-Type Framework: Synthesis and Crystalline Structure of K1.75Na0.25Ti2(PO4)3.

Project description:The interaction of TiN with Na2O-K2O-P2O5 melts was investigated at (Na+K)/P molar ratios of 0.9, 1.0, and 1.2 and at Na/K molar ratios of 1.0 and 2.0. Interactions in the system led to the loss of nitrogen and the partial loss of phosphorus and resulted in the formation of KTiP2O7 and langbeinite-type K2-x Na x Ti2(PO4)3 (x=0.22-0.26) solid solutions over the temperature range of 1173 to 1053 K. The phase compositions of the obtained samples were determined by using X-ray diffraction (including Rietveld refinement), scanning electron microscopy (using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and element mapping), FTIR spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis. K1.75Na0.25Ti2(PO4)3 was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction [P213 space group, a=9.851(5) Å]. The 3D framework is built up by TiO6 octahedra and PO4 tetrahedra sharing all the oxygen vertices with the formation of cavities occupied by K(Na) cations. Only one of the two crystallographically inequivalent potassium sites is partially substituted by sodium, and this was confirmed by calculating the bond-valence sum. The thermodynamic stability of K1.75Na0.25Ti2(PO4)3 crystals and the preferable occupation sites of NaK cationic substitutions were investigated by DFT-based electronic structure calculations performed by the plane-wave pseudopotential method.

NASICON-related Na?.?Mn?.?Fe?.?(PO?)?.

Project description:The solid solution, sodium [iron(III)/manganese(II)] tris-(orthophosphate), Na?.?Mn?.?Fe?.?(PO?)?, was obtained using a flux method. Its crystal structure is related to that of NASICON-type compounds. The [(Mn/Fe)?(PO?)?] framework is built up from an (Mn/Fe)O?octa-hedron (site symmetry 3.), with a mixed Mn/Fe occupancy, and a PO? tetra-hedron (site symmetry .2). The Na? cations are distributed over two partially occupied sites in the cavities of the framework. One Na? cation (site symmetry -3.) is surrounded by six O atoms, whereas the other Na? cation (site symmetry .2) is surrounded by eight O atoms.

Project description:Polycrystalline potassium nickel(II) hafnium(IV) tris-(orthophosphate), a langbeinite-type phosphate, was synthesized by a solid-state method. The three-dimensional framework of the title compound is built up from two types of [MO6] octa-hedra [the M sites are occupied by Hf:Ni in ratios of 0.754 (8):0.246 (8) and 0.746 (8):0.254 (8), respectively] and [PO4] tetra-hedra are connected via O vertices. The K+ cations are located in two positions within large cavities of the framework, having coordination numbers of 9 and 12. The Hf, Ni and K sites lie on threefold rotation axes, while the P and O atoms are situated in general positions.

A new langbeinite-type phosphate: K(2)AlSn(PO(4))(3).

Project description:Single crystals of the title compound, dipotassium aluminium tin(IV) tris-[phosphate(V)], K(2)AlSn(PO(4))(3), were synthesized by a high temperature reaction in a platinum crucible. In the structure, the Al(III) and Sn(IV) atoms occupy the same site on a threefold rotation axis with occupational disorder in a 1:1 ratio. In the three-dimensional structure, Al/SnO(6) octa-hedra and PO(4) tetra-hedra are inter-connected via their vertices, yielding a [Al/SnP(3)O(12)](n) framework. The K atoms (site symmetry 3) reside in the large cavities delimited by the [Al/SnP(3)O(12)](n) framework, and are surrounded by 12 O atoms.

Ablation-resistant carbide Zr0.8Ti0.2C0.74B0.26 for oxidizing environments up to 3,000?°C.

Project description:Ultra-high temperature ceramics are desirable for applications in the hypersonic vehicle, rockets, re-entry spacecraft and defence sectors, but few materials can currently satisfy the associated high temperature ablation requirements. Here we design and fabricate a carbide (Zr0.8Ti0.2C0.74B0.26) coating by reactive melt infiltration and pack cementation onto a C/C composite. It displays superior ablation resistance at temperatures from 2,000-3,000?°C, compared to existing ultra-high temperature ceramics (for example, a rate of material loss over 12 times better than conventional zirconium carbide at 2,500?°C). The carbide is a substitutional solid solution of Zr-Ti containing carbon vacancies that are randomly occupied by boron atoms. The sealing ability of the ceramic's oxides, slow oxygen diffusion and a dense and gradient distribution of ceramic result in much slower loss of protective oxide layers formed during ablation than other ceramic systems, leading to the superior ablation resistance.

Negating Na‖Na3Zr2Si2PO12 interfacial resistance for dendrite-free and "Na-less" solid-state batteries.

Project description:Solid electrolytes hold promise in safely enabling high-energy metallic sodium (Na) anodes. However, the poor Na‖solid electrolyte interfacial contact can induce Na dendrite growth and limit Na utilization, plaguing the rate performance and energy density of current solid-state Na-metal batteries (SSSMBs). Herein, a simple and scalable Pb/C interlayer strategy is introduced to regulate the surface chemistry and improve Na wettability of Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) solid electrolyte. The resulting NZSP exhibits a perfect Na wettability (0° contact angle) at a record-low temperature of 120 °C, a negligible room-temperature Na‖NZSP interfacial resistance of 1.5 Ω cm2, along with an ultralong cycle life of over 1800 h under 0.5 mA cm-2/0.5 mA h cm-2 symmetric cell cycling at 55 °C. Furthermore, we unprecedentedly demonstrate in situ fabrication of weight-controlled Na anodes and explore the effect of the negative/positive capacity (N/P) ratio on the cyclability of SSSMBs. Both solid-state Na3V2(PO4)3 and S full cells show superior electrochemical performance at an optimal N/P ratio of 40.0. The Pb/C interlayer modification demonstrates dual functions of stabilizing the anode interface and improving Na utilization, making it a general strategy for implementing Na metal anodes in practical SSSMBs.

Giant Negative Electrocaloric Effect in Anti-Ferroelectric (Pb0.97La0.02)(Zr0.95Ti0.05)O3 Ceramics.

Project description:A giant electrocaloric effect is reported in (Pb0.97La0.02)(Zr0.95Ti0.05)O3 anti-ferroelectric ceramics. These samples were fabricated by a solid-state mixed oxide technique. Dielectric analyses were employed to investigate the anti-ferroelectric (AFE) and ferroelectric (FE) phase transitions of the sample. During the heating process, the phase transition from the orthorhombic anti-ferroelectric phase (AFEO) to the tetragonal anti-ferroelectric phase (AFET) occurs at 155 °C, and the phase transition from AFET to PE occurs at 225 °C. Using the Maxwell relationship, the entropy change ?S and adiabatic temperature change ?T were obtained at different electric fields ranging from 40 to 65 kV/cm. The maximum adiabatic temperature change (?T max = -7.47 K) was obtained at 50 kV/cm, which was attributed to the field-induced phase transformation between the anti-ferroelectric and ferroelectric phases. These results showed that PLZT2/95/5 ceramics possess a large negative electrocaloric effect value, which could be applied in achieving cooling power as refrigerants.

Three new acid M+ arsenates and phosphates with multiply protonated As/PO4 groups.

Project description:The crystal structures of caesium dihydrogen arsenate(V) bis[trihydrogen arsenate(V)], Cs(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4)2, ammonium dihydrogen arsenate(V) trihydrogen arsenate(V), NH4(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), and dilithium bis(dihydrogen phosphate), Li2(H2PO4)2, were solved from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. NH4(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), which was hydrothermally synthesized (T = 493 K), is homeotypic with Rb(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4), while Cs(H2AsO4)(H3AsO4)2 crystallizes in a novel structure type and Li2(H2PO4)2 represents a new polymorph of this composition. The Cs and Li compounds grew at room temperature from highly acidic aqueous solutions. Li2(H2PO4)2 forms a three-dimensional (3D) framework of PO4 tetrahedra sharing corners with Li2O6 dimers built of edge-sharing LiO4 groups, which is reinforced by hydrogen bonds. The two arsenate compounds are characterized by a 3D network of AsO4 groups that are connected solely via multiple strong hydrogen bonds. A statistical evaluation of the As-O bond lengths in singly, doubly and triply protonated AsO4 groups gave average values of 1.70 (2) Å for 199 As-OH bonds, 1.728 (19) Å for As-OH bonds in HAsO4 groups, 1.714 (12) Å for As-OH bonds in H2AsO4 groups and 1.694 (16) Å for As-OH bonds in H3AsO4 groups, and a grand mean value of 1.667 (18) Å for As-O bonds to nonprotonated O atoms.

Immune response of human cultured cells towards macrocyclic Fe2PO and Fe2PC bioactive cyclophane complexes.

Project description:Synthetic molecules that mimic the function of natural enzymes or molecules have untapped potential for use in the next generation of drugs. Cyclic compounds that contain aromatic rings are macrocyclic cyclophanes, and when they coordinate iron ions are of particular interest due to their antioxidant and biomimetic properties. However, little is known about the molecular responses at the cellular level. This study aims to evaluate the changes in immune gene expression in human cells exposed to the cyclophanes Fe2PO and Fe2PC. Confluent human embryonic kidney cells were exposed to either the cyclophane Fe2PO or Fe2PC before extraction of RNA. The expression of a panel of innate and adaptive immune genes was analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR. Evidence was found for an inflammatory response elicited by the cyclophane exposures. After 8 h of exposure, the cells increased the relative expression of inflammatory mediators such as interleukin 1; IRAK, which transduces signals between interleukin 1 receptors and the NF?B pathway; and the LPS pattern recognition receptor CD14. After 24 h of exposure, regulatory genes begin to counter the inflammation, as some genes involved in oxidative stress, apoptosis and non-inflammatory immune responses come into play. Both Fe2PO and Fe2PC induced similar immunogenetic changes in transcription profiles, but equal molar doses of Fe2PC resulted in more robust responses. These data suggest that further work in whole animal models may provide more insights into the extent of systemic physiological changes induced by these cyclophanes.

Cycling Stability of Lithium-Ion Batteries Based on Fe-Ti-Doped LiNi0.5 Mn1.5 O4 Cathodes, Graphite Anodes, and the Cathode-Additive Li3 PO4.

Project description:This study addresses the improved cycling stability of Li-ion batteries based on Fe-Ti-doped LiNi0.5 Mn1.5 O4 (LNMO) high-voltage cathode active material and graphite anodes. By using 1 wt% Li3 PO4 as cathode additive, over 90% capacity retention for 1000 charge-discharge cycles and remaining capacities of 109 mAh g-1 are reached in a cell with an areal capacity of 2.3 mAh cm- 2 (potential range: 3.5-4.9 V). Cells without the additive, in contrast, suffer from accelerated capacity loss and increase polarization, resulting in capacity retention of only 78% over 1000 cycles. An electrolyte consisting of ethylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, and LiPF6 is used without additional additives. The significantly improved cycling stability of the full cells is mainly due to two factors, namely, the low MnIII content of the Fe-Ti-doped LNMO active material and the use of the cathode-additive Li3 PO4 . Crystalline Li3 PO4 yields a drastic reduction of transition metal deposition on the graphite anode and prevents Li loss and the propagation of cell polarization. Li3 PO4 is added to the cathode slurry that makes it a very simple and scalable process, first reported herein. The positive effects of crystalline Li3 PO4 as electrode additive, however, should apply to other cell chemistries as well.
