Vanadium Pentoxide-Based Composite Synthesized Using Microwave Water Plasma for Cathode Material in Rechargeable Magnesium Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Multivalent cation rechargeable batteries are expected to perform well as high-capacity storage devices. Rechargeable magnesium batteries have an advantage in terms of resource utilization and safety. Here, we report on sulfur-doped vanadium pentoxide (S-V₂O₅) as a potential material for the cathodes of such a battery; S-V₂O₅ showed a specific capacity of 300 mAh·g-1. S-V₂O₅ was prepared by a method using a low-temperature plasma generated by carbon felt and a 2.45 GHz microwave generator. This study investigates the ability of S-V₂O₅ to achieve high capacity when added to metal oxide. The highest recorded capacity (420 mAh·g-1) was reached with MnO₂ added to composite SMn-V₂O₅, which has a higher proportion of included sulfur than found in S-V₂O₅. Results from transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Micro-Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy show that the bulk of the SMn-V₂O₅ was the orthorhombic V₂O₅ structure; the surface was a xerogel-like V₂O₅ and a solid solution of MnO₂ and sulfur.

A Self-Conditioned Metalloporphyrin as a Highly Stable Cathode for Fast Rechargeable Magnesium Batteries.

Project description:Development of practical rechargeable Mg batteries (RMBs) is impeded by their limited cycle life and rate performance of cathodes. As demonstrated herein, a copper-porphyrin with meso-functionalized ethynyl groups is capable of reversible two- and four-electron storage at an extremely fast rate (tested up to 53 C). The reversible four-electron redox process with cationic-anionic contributions resulted in a specific discharge capacity of 155 mAh g-1 at the high current density of 1000 mA g-1 . Even at 4000 mA g-1 , it still delivered >70 mAh g-1 after 500 cycles, corresponding to an energy density of >92 Wh kg-1 at a high power of >5100 W kg-1 . The ability to provide such high-rate performance and long-life opens the way to the development of practical cathodes for multivalent metal batteries.

Heteroaromatic organic compound with conjugated multi-carbonyl as cathode material for rechargeable lithium batteries.

Project description:The heteroaromatic organic compound, N,N'-diphenyl-1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetra- carboxylic diimide (DP-NTCDI-250) as the cathode material of lithium batteries is prepared through a simple one-pot N-acylation reaction of 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetra-carboxylic dianhydride (NTCDA) with phenylamine (PA) in DMF solution followed by heat treatment in 250?°C. The as prepared sample is characterized by the combination of elemental analysis, NMR, FT-IR, TGA, XRD, SEM and TEM. The electrochemical measurements show that DP-NTCDI-250 can deliver an initial discharge capacity of 170?mAh g(-1) at the current density of 25?mA g(-1). The capacity of 119?mAh g(-1) can be retained after 100 cycles. Even at the high current density of 500?mA g(-1), its capacity still reaches 105?mAh g(-1), indicating its high rate capability. Therefore, the as-prepared DP-NTCDI-250 could be a promising candidate as low cost cathode materials for lithium batteries.

Coulombic self-ordering upon charging a large-capacity layered cathode material for rechargeable batteries.

Project description:Lithium- and sodium-rich layered transition-metal oxides have recently been attracting significant interest because of their large capacity achieved by additional oxygen-redox reactions. However, layered transition-metal oxides exhibit structural degradation such as cation migration, layer exfoliation or cracks upon deep charge, which is a major obstacle to achieve higher energy-density batteries. Here we demonstrate a self-repairing phenomenon of stacking faults upon desodiation from an oxygen-redox layered oxide Na2RuO3, realizing much better reversibility of the electrode reaction. The phase transformations upon charging A2MO3 (A: alkali metal) can be dominated by three-dimensional Coulombic attractive interactions driven by the existence of ordered alkali-metal vacancies, leading to counterintuitive self-repairing of stacking faults and progressive ordering upon charging. The cooperatively ordered vacancy in lithium-/sodium-rich layered transition-metal oxides is shown to play an essential role, not only in generating the electro-active nonbonding 2p orbital of neighbouring oxygen but also in stabilizing the phase transformation for highly reversible oxygen-redox reactions.

New O3-Type Layer-Structured Na0.80[Fe0.40Co0.40Ti0.20]O2 Cathode Material for Rechargeable Sodium-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Herein, we formulated a new O3-type layered Na0.80[Fe0.40Co0.40Ti0.20]O2 (NFCTO) cathode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) using a double-substitution concept of Co in the parent NaFe0.5Co0.5O2, having the general formula Na1-x[Fe0.5-x/2Co0.5-x/2M4+x]O2 (M4+ = tetravalent ions). The NFCTO electrode delivers a first discharge capacity of 108 mAhg-1 with 80% discharge capacity retention after 50 cycles. Notably, the first charge-discharge profile shows asymmetric yet reversible redox reactions. Such asymmetric redox reactions and electrochemical properties of the NFCTO electrode were correlated with the phase transition behavior and charge compensation reaction using synchrotron-based in situ XRD and ex situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy. This study provides an exciting opportunity to explore the interplay between the rich chemistry of Na1-x[Fe0.5-x/2Co0.5-x/2M4+x]O2 and sodium storage properties, which may lead to the development of new cathode materials for SIBs.

AZ31 Magnesium Alloy Foils as Thin Anodes for Rechargeable Magnesium Batteries.

Project description:In recent decades, rechargeable Mg batteries (RMBs) technologies have attracted much attention because the use of thin Mg foil anodes may enable development of high-energy-density batteries. One of the most critical challenges for RMBs is finding suitable electrolyte solutions that enable efficient and reversible Mg cells operation. Most RMB studies concentrate on the development of novel electrolyte systems, while only few studies have focused on the practical feasibility of using pure metallic Mg as the anode material. Pure Mg metal anodes have been demonstrated to be useful in studying the fundamentals of nonaqueous Mg electrochemistry. However, pure Mg metal may not be suitable for mass production of ultrathin foils (<100 microns) due to its limited ductility. The metals industry overcomes this problem by using ductile Mg alloys. Herein, the feasibility of processing ultrathin Mg anodes in electrochemical cells was demonstrated by using AZ31 Mg alloys (3 % Al; 1 % Zn). Thin-film Mg AZ31 anodes presented reversible Mg dissolution and deposition behavior in complex ethereal Mg electrolytes solutions that was comparable to that of pure Mg foils. Moreover, it was demonstrated that secondary Mg battery prototypes comprising ultrathin AZ31 Mg alloy anodes (≈25 μm thick) and Mgx Mo6 S8 Chevrel-phase cathodes exhibited cycling performance equal to that of similar cells containing thicker pure Mg foil anodes. The possibility of using ultrathin processable Mg metal anodes is an important step in the realization of rechargeable Mg batteries.

Fabrication of the Ni-NiCl<sub>2</sub> Composite Cathode Material for Fast-Response Thermal Batteries.

Project description:Thermal batteries with a high power density and rapid activation time are crucial for improving the fast response ability of sophisticated weapons. In this study, an Ni-NiCl2 composite was prepared via hydrogen reduction and employed as a cathode material. Discharge tests on a battery assembled using the fabricated composite revealed that its initial internal resistance decreased and the activation time reduced. Notably, the Ni-NiCl2 cathode increased the energy output by 47% (from 6.76 to 9.94 Wh in NiCl2 and Ni-NiCl2, respectively) with a cut-off voltage of 25 V; the power density of the novel battery system reached 11.4 kW/kg. The excellent performance of the thermal battery benefited from the high electrode potential and low internal resistance of Ni-NiCl2. This study contributes to the development of high-performance electrode materials for next-generation thermal battery-related technologies.

Improved Non-Grignard Electrolyte Based on Magnesium Borate Trichloride for Rechargeable Magnesium Batteries.

Project description:The high anodic stability of electrolytes for rechargeable magnesium batteries enables the use of new positive electrodes, which can contribute to an increase in energy density. In this study, novel Ph3COMgCl-, Ph3SiOMgCl-, and B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes were prepared with AlCl3 in triglyme. The Ph3COMgCl-based electrolyte showed anodic stability over 3.0?V vs. Mg but was chemically unstable, whereas the Ph3SiOMgCl-based electrolyte was chemically stable but featured lower anodic stability than the Ph3COMgCl-based electrolyte. Advantageously, the B(OMgCl)3-based electrolyte showed both anodic stability over 3.0?V vs. Mg (possibly due to the Lewis acidic nature of B in B(OMgCl)3) and chemical stability (possibly due to the hard acid character of B(OMgCl)3). B(OMgCl)3, which was prepared by reacting boric acid with a Grignard reagent, was characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). The above analyses showed that B(OMgCl)3 has a complex structure featuring coordinated tetrahydrofuran molecules. 27Al NMR spectroscopy and Al K-edge XAS showed that when B(OMgCl)3 was present in the electrolyte, AlCl3 and AlCl2+ species were converted to AlCl4-. Mg K-edge XAS showed that the Mg species in B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes are electrochemically positive. As a rechargeable magnesium battery, the full cell using the B(OMgCl)3-based electrolyte and a Mo6S8 Chevrel phase cathode showed stable charge-discharge cycles. Thus, B(OMgCl)3-based electrolytes, the anodic stability of which can be increased to ~3?V by the use of appropriate battery materials, are well suited for the development of practical Mg battery cathodes.

The Application of Indium Oxide@CPM-5-C-600 Composite Material Derived from MOF in Cathode Material of Lithium Sulfur Batteries.

Project description:Due to the "shuttle effect", the cycle performance of lithium sulfur (Li-S) battery is poor and the capacity decays rapidly. Replacing lithium-ion battery is the maximum problem to be overcome. In order to solve this problem, we use a cage like microporous MOF(CPM-5) as a carbon source, which is carbonized at high temperature to get a micro-mesoporous carbon composite material. In addition, indium oxide particles formed during carbonization are deposited on CPM-5 structure, forming a simple core-shell structure CPM-5-C-600. When it is used as the cathode of Li-S battery, the small molecule sulfide can be confined in the micropores, while the existence of large pore size mesopores can provide a channel for the transmission of lithium ions, so as to improve the conductivity of the material and the rate performance of the battery. After 100 cycles, the specific capacity of the battery can be still maintained at 650 mA h·g-1 and the Coulombic efficiency is close to 100%. When the rate goes up to 2 C, the first discharge capacity not only can reach 1400 mA h·g-1, but also still provides 500 mA h·g-1 after 200 cycles, showing excellent rate performance.

Vanadium dioxide-zinc oxide stacked photocathodes for photo-rechargeable zinc-ion batteries.

Project description:The development of batteries that can be recharged directly by light, without the need for external solar cells or external power supplies, has recently gained interest for powering off-grid devices. Vanadium dioxide (VO2) has been studied as a promising photocathode for zinc-ion batteries because it can both store energy and harvest light. However, the efficiency of the photocharging process depends on electrode structure and charge transport layers. In this work, we report photocathodes using zinc oxide as an electron transport and hole blocking layer on top of which we synthesise VO2. The improved interface and charge separation in these photocathodes offer an improvement in photo-conversion efficiency from ∼0.18 to ∼0.51% compared to previous work on mixed VO2 photocathodes. In addition, a good capacity retention of ∼73% was observed after 500 cycles. The proposed stacked photocathodes reduce the battery light charging time by 3-fold and are therefore an important step towards making this technology more viable.

Binder-Free V2O5 Cathode for High Energy Density Rechargeable Aluminum-Ion Batteries.

Project description:Nowadays, research on electrochemical storage systems moves into the direction of post-lithium-ion batteries, such as aluminum-ion batteries, and the exploration of suitable materials for such batteries. Vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) is one of the most promising host materials for the intercalation of multivalent ions. Here, we report on the fabrication of a binder-free and self-supporting V2O5 micrometer-thick paper-like electrode material and its use as the cathode for rechargeable aluminum-ion batteries. The electrical conductivity of the cathode was significantly improved by a novel in-situ and self-limiting copper migration approach into the V2O5 structure. This process takes advantage of the dissolution of Cu by the ionic liquid-based electrolyte, as well as the presence of two different accommodation sites in the nanostructured V2O5 available for aluminum-ions and the migrated Cu. Furthermore, the advanced nanostructured cathode delivered a specific discharge capacity of up to ~170 mAh g-1 and the reversible intercalation of Al3+ for more than 500 cycles with a high Coulomb efficiency reaching nearly 100%. The binder-free concept results in an energy density of 74 Wh kg-1, which shows improved energy density in comparison to the so far published V2O5-based cathodes. Our results provide valuable insights for the future design and development of novel binder-free and self-supporting electrodes for rechargeable multivalent metal-ion batteries associating a high energy density, cycling stability, safety and low cost.
