This paper emphasized the kinetic analysis of non-isothermal TG-DTA data by Achar method and Coats-Redfern method to fit various solid-state reaction models, and to achieve kinetic parameters of desolvation. The mechanism of thermal desolvation was evaluated using the kinetic compensation effect. The results show that kinetics of desolvation of erythromycin acetone solvate was compatible with the mechanism of a two-dimensional diffusion controlled and was best expressed by Valensi equation. Corresponding to the integral method and the differential method, the activation energy of desolvation of erythromycin acetone solvate was estimated to be 51.26—57.11 kJ/mol, and the pre-exponential factor was 8.077×106 s-1—4.326×107 s-1, respectively.展开更多

The catalytic constant (kB) for aqueous arsenate is two-fold larger than for aqueous phosphate. The catalytic constant (ks) of phosphate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (1.67 ± 0.11) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (5.78 ± 0.39) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 3.5 times, relative to that in water; the catalytic constant (kB) of arsenate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (2.98±0.07)× 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (6.62 ± 0.53) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 2 times, relative to that in water. The spontaneous rate constants are independent of sorbitol concentration for phosphate and arsenate. The catalytic power of phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol are the same. Desolvation of strongly hydrated species such as HPO42 and HAsO42 should make a contribution to the energy cost of the formation of anion-hemoglobin complexes and can be a possible explanation for higher catalytic potential of HAsO42 in water. The same catalytic constant (ksB) for phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol indicates that the same catalyst base group on the hemoglobin molecule may be involved in the abstraction of proton in the Amadori rearrangement.展开更多

文摘Lithium metal has emerged as a highly promising anode material for enhancing the energy density of secondary batteries,attributed to its high theoretical specific capacity and low electrochemical potential.However,safety concerns related to lithium dendrite-induced short circuits and suboptimal electrochemical performance have impeded the commercial viability of lithium metal batteries.Current research efforts primarily focus on altering the solvated structure of Li+by modifying the current collector or introducing electrolyte additives to lower the nucleation barrier,expedite the desolvation process,and suppress the growth of lithium dendrites.Nevertheless,an integrated approach that combines the advantages of these two strategies remains elusive.In this study,we successfully employed metal-organic salt additives with lithophilic properties to accelerate the desolvation process,reduce the nucleation barrier of Li+,and modulate its solvated structure.This approach enhanced the inorganic compound content in the solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)on lithium foil surfaces,leading to stable Li+deposition and stripping.Specifically,Li||Cu cells demonstrated excellent cycle life and Coulombic efficiency(97.28%and 98.59%,respectively)at 0.5 m A/cm^(2)@0.5 m Ah/cm^(2)and 1 m A/cm^(2)@1 m Ah/cm^(2)for 410 and 240 cycles,respectively.Li||Li symmetrical cells showed no short circuit at 1 m A/cm^(2)@1 m Ah/cm^(2)for 1150 h,and Li||LFP full cells retained 68.9%of their capacity(104.6 m Ah/g)after 250 cycles at N/P(1.1:1.0)with a current density of 1C.

文摘The uncontrollable dendrites growth and intricately water-induced side reactions occurred on zinc anode leads to safety issues and poor electrochemical kinetics,which largely limit the widespread application of zinc-ion batteries(ZIBs).Herein,ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt(EDTA-2Na)is utilized as an electrolyte additive to strengthen the reversibility and cycling stability of zinc anode.Experimental results and theoretical calculation demonstrate that the EDTA-2Na presents a much stronger coordination with Zn^(2+)when comparing with H_(2)O molecular,implying the EDTA-2Na is capable to enter the solvation shell of[Zn(OH_(2))_(6)]^(2+)and coordinate with Zn^(2+)ions,thus achieving a flat and smooth zinc deposition with less by-products(Zn_(4)SO_(4)(OH)6·xH_(2)O and H_(2)).Consequently,the zinc symmetric battery with EDTA-2Na additive delivers an excellent cycling stability up to 1800 h under current density of 1 mA cm^(-2),and the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER),corrosion,by-product issues are significantly inhibited.Moreover,the rate performance and stability of coin-type and pouch-type Zn||MnO2/graphite batteries are significantly boosted via EDTA-2Na additive(248 mAh g^(-1)at 0.1 A g^(-1),81.3%after 1000 cycles at a A g^(-1)).This kind of electrolyte additive with chelation and desolvation functions shed lights on strategies of improving zinc anode stability for further application of ZIBs.

文摘Stibium(Sb)metal with high theoretic capacity,suitable negative working window and inexpensive nature are promising anode material for advanced aqueous alkaline batteries(AABs).However,the further development of Sb anode is severely hindered by the low capacity and poor rate capability which is originated from deficient adsorption of[Sb(OH)_(4)]^(-)and its sluggish desolvation kinetics.Herein,a nitrogen doped carbon cages(NCCs)substrate is constructed as high capacity and rate capability anode by promoting the adsorption and following desolvation process of[Sb(OH)_(4)]^(-)via the enhanced attraction toward(OH)-in the solvated[Sb(OH)_(4)]^(-).Consequently,the designed Sb/NCCs anode delivers a high capacity of 627 m Ah g^(-1)with an average 95%Sb utilization,an outstanding coulombic efficiency(CE)of 95%and an impressive lifespan(>110 h).Meanwhile,the Ni_(3)Se_(2)//Sb/NCCs batteries show great capacity retention of 86.7%after 2000 cycles with an areal capacity of 0.52 m Ah cm^(-2).Implementation of the designed anode allows for the construction of Sb-based AABs with enhanced rate capability,energy density and cycling performance.
文摘The desolvation of erythromycin acetone solvate was investigated under non-isothermal conditions by a thermogravimetric analyzer. This paper emphasized the kinetic analysis of non-isothermal TG-DTA data by Achar method and Coats-Redfern method to fit various solid-state reaction models, and to achieve kinetic parameters of desolvation. The mechanism of thermal desolvation was evaluated using the kinetic compensation effect. The results show that kinetics of desolvation of erythromycin acetone solvate was compatible with the mechanism of a two-dimensional diffusion controlled and was best expressed by Valensi equation. Corresponding to the integral method and the differential method, the activation energy of desolvation of erythromycin acetone solvate was estimated to be 51.26—57.11 kJ/mol, and the pre-exponential factor was 8.077×106 s-1—4.326×107 s-1, respectively.
文摘The glycation of hemoglobin is catalyzed by buffer phosphate and arsenate. The catalytic constant (kB) for aqueous arsenate is two-fold larger than for aqueous phosphate. The catalytic constant (ks) of phosphate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (1.67 ± 0.11) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (5.78 ± 0.39) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 3.5 times, relative to that in water; the catalytic constant (kB) of arsenate in sorbitol mixtures increase from (2.98±0.07)× 10-10 s-1·M-1 to (6.62 ± 0.53) × 10-10 s-1·M-1 and the catalytic constant is enhanced 2 times, relative to that in water. The spontaneous rate constants are independent of sorbitol concentration for phosphate and arsenate. The catalytic power of phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol are the same. Desolvation of strongly hydrated species such as HPO42 and HAsO42 should make a contribution to the energy cost of the formation of anion-hemoglobin complexes and can be a possible explanation for higher catalytic potential of HAsO42 in water. The same catalytic constant (ksB) for phosphate and arsenate in sorbitol indicates that the same catalyst base group on the hemoglobin molecule may be involved in the abstraction of proton in the Amadori rearrangement.

文摘Biomolecular self-assembly based on peptides and proteins is a general phenomenon encountered in natural and synthetic systems.Liquid–liquid phase separation(LLPS)is intimately involved in biomolecular self-assembly,yet the key factors at a molecular scale activating or modulating such a process remain largely elusive.Herein,we discovered in our experiments that multistep desolvation is fundamental to the formation and evolution of peptide-rich droplets:The first step was partial desolvation of peptides to form peptide clusters,and the second step was selective desolvation of hydrophobic groups within clusters to trigger LLPS and the formation of peptiderich droplets,followed by complete desolvation of droplets,initiating the nucleation of peptide selfassembly.Manipulation of the degree of desolvation at different stages was an effective strategy to control the self-assembly pathways and polymorphisms.This study sheds light on the molecular origin of LLPS-mediated self-assembly distinct from classical one-step self-assembly and paves the way for the precise control of supramolecular self-assembly.

文摘High interfacial energy Li^(0)-electrolyte interface contributes to larger Li^(0) nucleation embryos and a more stable interface,so the interfacial energy is essential for highly reversible Li^(0) deposition/stripping.Herein,a high interfacial-energy artificial solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)with rich LiF embedded in lithiated poly-2-acrylamido-2-methylpropane sulfonic acid(PAMPS-Li)network is designed to realize favorable Li^(0) nucleation and rapid desolvation of Li+simultaneously.The Li-F bonds in LiF(001)exhibit stronger ion-dipole interactions with Li atoms,offering higher interfacial energies.When the growth surface energy and total interfacial energy of Li^(0) are balanced,the high interfacial energy SEI with abundant LiF can promote the formation of larger Li^(0) nucleation embryos.In addition,the PAMPS-Li with immobilized anions presents weaker interaction with Li^(0) and possesses higher polymer-Li interfacial energy,and its amide and sulfonic acid groups exhibit higher binding energies with Li^(+).Therefore,PAMPS-Li can easily promote the Li+to escape from the solvent sheath and weaken the desolvation energy barrier.The highly reversible Li^(0) deposition behavior with restricted side reactions is achieved based on the synergistic modification of high interfacial energy SEI with heterostructure.Most importantly,lifespan of multi-layered Li^(0) pouch cell(330 Wh kg-1)with a low N/P ratio(1.67)is over 100 cycles,verifying its potential practical application.
文摘Aspirin is mainly used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthtitis and ankylosing spondylitis(AS).The dose of aspirin required for the treatment is 3 g/day in divided doses.In order to avoid chances of missing the dose of drug,it is better to formulate sustained release dosage forms.In the present study,aspirin loaded bovine serum albumin(BSA)nanoparticles were prepared by desolvation technique using various desolvating agents such as acetone,ethanol and sodium sulphate.A comparative study was made among the three desolvating agents(acetone,ethanol and sodium sulphate)and two methods(continuous addition method and intermittent addition method)to decide the best desolvating agent and the better method for preparation of aspirin nanoparticles by desolvation method.Continuous and intermittent addition methods were followed for the addition of desolvating agent to the aqueous solution of bovine serum albumin.Bovine serum albumin nanoparticles prepared by intermittent addition of ethanol was showing better results with the mean particle diameter of 209 nm,entrapment efficiency of 50%and loading capacity of 23%.The drug release was slow,extending over a period of 24 h.The curve fitting data revealed that the release followed the first-order kinetics.Higuchis and Peppas plots stated that Fickian diffusion controlled the pattern in all formulations.From the results it can be concluded that the method of intermittent addition was the better method and ethanol was the best desolvating agent for the preparation of aspirin nanoparticles by desolvation technique.
文摘Diffusion reaction of the labile building block Mg(acacCN)2 (acacCN= 3-cyanoacetylacetonate) with silver salts leads to a series of solvated Mg/Ag bimetallic coordination polymers with composition [Mg(acacCN)aAg].solvent. Despite their common stoichiometry, the topology of these polymers depends on the solvent of crystallization. The two-dimensional coordination compound [Mg(acacCN)aAg]-4CHCl3 in space group P]- is obtained as platelet-shaped crystals from a mixture of methanol and chloroform. When kept in the reaction mixture, these thin plates within one week convert to isometric tetrahedral crystals of the 3D network [Mg(acacCN)3Ag]. 2CHC13 in the cubic space group/9213. The transformation reaction proceeds via dissolution and recrystallization. The co-crystallized solvent molecules play an important role for stabilizing the target structure: They subtend Cl...Cl contacts and interact via non- classical C-H.-. O hydrogen bonds with the coordination framework. In the new cubic coordination network, both Mg(II) and Ag(I) adopt octahedral coordination, with unprecedented face-sharing by bridging O atoms of three acetylacetonato moieties. Prolonged standing of [Mg(acacCN)3Ag]-2CHCl3 in the reaction medium leads to further degradation, under formation of [Ag(acacCN)].

文摘Designing anion-dominated weak solvation structures is often achieved by elevating the concentration of Li salts.However,this is accompanied by the increase in the cost.Herein,a medium concentration electrolyte (1 M) with weak solvation structures is established by the multi-anion strategy.Multiple anions in the electrolyte strengthen the anion-solvent interactions through stronger ion–dipole interactions.This reduces the quantity of free solvent and improves the reduction resistance of solvents.In addition,the Li ion–solvent interaction is weakened,facilitating the anions to enter the solvation sheaths of Li ions.This multi-anion-dominated weak solvation structures boost Li ion diffusion in the electrolyte,accelerate the desolvation process of Li ions,and induce inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interphase and uniform Li deposition.An average Coulombic efficiency of 99.1%for repeated Li plating/stripping can be achieved.Li||LiNi_(0.5)Co_(0.2)Mn_(0.3)O_(2) cells with a high cathode loading of 3.0 m A h cm^(-2) can maintain a capacity retention as high as 95% after 150 cycles.This finding provides novel standpoints to modulate the interaction of solvation structures and extend the lifespan of high-energy–density Li metal batteries.

文摘Aqueous zinc-metal based batteries(AZMBs)perfectly combine safety,economy and pro-environment,but their performance is arresting limited by the interfacial instability caused by the large desolvation energy barrier of[Zn(H2O)6]^(2+)and the massive release of active water at the electrolyte/electrode interface.In this review,we briefly outline the solvation structure of zinc ions and the necessity of desolvation.Subsequently,the variety of strategies to solve these issues,mainly including reorganizing solvation sheath by changing electrolyte environment and accelerating interface desolvation by constructing artificial interfacial layer,are categorically discussed and systematically summarized.Meanwhile,perspectives and suggestions regarding desolvation theories,interfacial evolution,material design and analysis techniques are proposed to design highly stable zinc anodes.

文摘Ni-ion aqueous batteries(NIBs)were considered an important development direction for aqueous batteries due to the high theoretical capacity(913 mA h g^(-1))and volume capacity(8136 mA h cm^(-3))of nickel metal.Herein,an electrolyte additive(dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride,DTAC)was used to improve the electrolyte environment,achieve efficient transport of Ni-ion,and combine the intercalated vanadium oxide cathodes to realize novel strategy NIBs.Firstly,the introduction of trace amounts of DTAC improved the high-concentration NiCl_(2)(4.2 M)electrolyte environment and reconstructed the hydrogen bond network.Molecular dynamics(MD)calculations and electrochemical results indicated that DTAC contributed to the desolvation process of Ni^(2+)and the realization of fast dynamics.The results of Ni symmetric cells demonstrated that DTAC enhanced the rapid migration of Ni-ion and achieved longer cycling stability(1750/1500 h at 0.2/0.5 mA cm^(-2)without obvious short circuits).Secondly,the insertion of organic small molecules(pyrrolidine)into vanadium oxide(V_(2)O_(5))to expand the interlayer spacing promoted the Ni-ion storage capacity of the cathodes.The capacity retention rate of Ni full battery after 6000 cycles at 5 A g^(-1)reached 82.17%.This work provided a novel strategy for the development of Ni-ion aqueous batteries.

文摘The development of aqueous zinc-ion batteries is crucial for advancing sustainable energy storage technologies.However,their widespread application is hindered by Zn corrosion and uncontrolled Zn dendrite growth.One promising approach involves creating a functional organic-inorganic interface on the Zn surface.Traditional binders,such as polyvinylidene fluoride(PVDF),fail to regulate water activity and ion migration,limiting the effectiveness of the interface.Herein,we introduce an aqueous dual ionic/electronic conducting binder,poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate(PEDOT:PSS),to build a water-scarce,Zn^(2+)-enriched interface.Our findings demonstrate that PEDOT:PSS not only facilitates uniform distribution of inorganic fillers,forming a cohesive and compact interface,but also significantly enhances mechanical integrity.Additionally,the sulfonate groups within the binder matrix disrupt the hydrogen bond network of water molecules,reducing water activity and lowering the desolvation energy barrier of Zn(H_(2)O)_(6)^(2+)clusters.Therefore,the transference number of Zn^(2+)is elevated to 0.81(compared to 0.61 with PVDF),mitigating undesirable side reactions and enabling dendrite-less Zn deposition.Consequently,symmetrical Zn||Zn cells with PEDOT:PSS binder demonstrate a lifetime with 4.2 times longer than those with PVDF.This work underscores the critical role of binder chemistry in stabilizing metal anodes for aqueous batteries.

文摘This article focuses on iodine determination by microwave plasma torch atomic emission spectrometry (MPT-AES) coupled with online preconcentration vapor generation method. A new desolvation device, multistrand Nafion dryer, was used as the substitute for condenser desolvation system. Some experimental conditions, such as preconcentration time, acidity of sample solution, rinsing solution acidity and dynamic linear range were investigated and optimized. The new desolvation system eliminates the problem of decreasing emission intensity of I(I) 206.238 nm line with the increase of working time on a conventional condenser desolvation system, thus greatly improving the reproducibility.

文摘The practical application of Li metal anodes(LMAs)is limited by uncontrolled dendrite growth and side reactions.Herein,we propose a new friction-induced strategy to produce high-performance thin Li anode(Li@CFO).By virtue of the in situ friction reaction between fluoropolymer grease and Li strips during rolling,a robust organic/inorganic hybrid interlayer(lithiophilic LiF/LiC_(6)framework hybridized-CF_(2)-O-CF_(2)-chains)was formed atop Li metal.The derived interface contributes to reversible Li plating/stripping behaviors by mitigating side reactions and decreasing the solvation degree at the interface.The Li@CFO||Li@CFO symmetrical cell exhibits a remarkable lifespan for 5,600 h(1.0 mA cm^(-2)and 1.0 mAh cm^(-2))and 1,350 cycles even at a harsh condition(18.0 mA cm^(-2)and 3.0 mAh cm^(-2)).When paired with high-loading LiFePO4 cathodes,the full cell lasts over 450 cycles at 1C with a high-capacity retention of 99.9%.This work provides a new friction-induced strategy for producing high-performance thin LMAs.

文摘Achieving a highly robust zinc(Zn)metal anode is extremely important for improving the performance of aqueous Zn-ion batteries(AZIBs)for advancing“carbon neutrality”society,which is hampered by the uncontrollable growth of Zn dendrite and severe side reactions including hydrogen evolution reaction,corrosion,and passivation,etc.Herein,an interlayer containing fluorinated zincophilic covalent organic framework with sulfonic acid groups(COF-S-F)is developed on Zn metal(Zn@COF-S-F)as the artificial solid electrolyte interface(SEI).Sulfonic acid group(-SO_(3)H)in COF-S-F can effectively ameliorate the desolvation process of hydrated Zn ions,and the three-dimensional channel with fluoride group(-F)can provide interconnected channels for the favorable transport of Zn ions with ion-confinement effects,endowing Zn@COF-S-F with dendrite-free morphology and suppressed side reactions.Consequently,Zn@COF-S-F symmetric cell can stably cycle for 1,000 h with low average hysteresis voltage(50.5 m V)at the current density of 1.5 m A cm^(-2).Zn@COF-S-F|Mn O_(2)cell delivers the discharge specific capacity of 206.8 m Ah g^(-1)at the current density of 1.2 A g^(-1)after 800 cycles with high-capacity retention(87.9%).Enlightening,building artificial SEI on metallic Zn surface with targeted design has been proved as the effective strategy to foster the practical application of high-performance AZIBs.
