As anode materials for lithium ion batteries, the Cu2O@Cu composites obviously possess high specific capacity, excellent cyclic stability and rate capability. The coulombic efficiency is about 84% in the 1 st cycle and increases significantly up to 97.8% during successive cycles at various current densities. Even under a high current density of 500 mA g^-l, the discharge capacity of Cu2O@Cu composites remains up to 200 mAh g^-1. The excellent electrochemical properties are ascribed to the synergistic effect between high electronic conductivity and volume-buffering capacity of metallic copper composited with Cu2O.2017 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science & Technology.展开更多

The reactant solutions were simultaneously and continuously pumped into the IS-RPB reactor, and then Tween80 was added as a surface modifier. The morphology, structure, and properties of blank and hydrophobic MH were characterized. The effects of MH nanoparticles on the flame retardancy, thermal stability, and mechanical properties of PP/MH composites were also studied. We found that the obtained MH nanoparticles exhibited hexagonal lamella with a mean size of 30 nm, excellent hydrophobic properties(e.g., high water contact angle of 112°), and improved thermal stability of MH. The limiting oxygen index(LOI) further showed that increased MH loading can significantly improve flame-retardant performance, which reached 29.3% for PP/MH composites with 30 wt% hydrophobic samples. The thermal stability and mechanical properties of the PP/MH composites with hydrophobic samples were also much higher than those of PP/MH composites with blank MH.

The shapes of gold NPs were controllable by simply tuning S/Au ratio (S is from MSA molecule, and S/Au ratio is controlled by tuning the volume of added MSA solution), and triangle, polygonal and spherical nanoparticles were obtained. This result suggested a new way to consider the effects of MSA on the growth of nanoparticles, which showed that MSA is a strong capping agent and facilitates more uniform growth of nanoparticles in every dimension. And other important factors on nanoparticles growth including NaCl and temperature were discussed. Furthermore, a typical probe molecule, 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) was used to test the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity of these gold NPs and the results indicated good Raman activity on these substrates. And the enhancement factor (EF) at 1078 cm^- 1 (a1) was estimated to be as large as 6.3 × 10^4 and 5.5 × 10^4 for triangular plates and truncated particles, respectively.展开更多

The method utilizes standard-state thermodynamic data for solid and aqueous species and a 0ebye-Huckel coefficients model to represent solution nonideality. The method has been used to generate phase stability diagrams that indicate the ranges of pH and reagent concentrations, for which various species predominate in the system at a given temperature. Also, yield diagrams have been constructed that indicate the concentration, pH and temperature conditions for which different yields of crystalline BaTiO3 can be obtained. The stability and yield diagrams have been used to predict the optimum synthesis conditions (e.g., reagent concentrations, pH and temperature). Subsequently, these predictions have been experimentally verified. As a result, phase-pure perovskite BaTiO3 has been obtained at temperature ranging from 55 to 85℃ using BaCl2, TiCl4 as a source for Ba and Ti, and NaOH as a precipitator.展开更多

These studies include applications in heterogeneous catalysts, solar cells, coating technology, and electrical devices. TiO2 particles in the nanometer scale can remove limitations, such as the absorbance of organic materials, because of a high surface area to volume ratio. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles, were synthesized using a simple wet chemical method. Their physico-chemical properties were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. The TEM results showed that the mean size of assynthesized TiO2 was 5 nm with high crystalline anatase phase. The SEM observations revealed that the size of nanoparticles increased with annealing temperature and the morphology of the particles changed to the spherical shape. The crystal structure of the nanoparticles before and after annealing was done by XRD analysis. The rutile phase was formed after heat treatment at 600oC for 3 hours.展开更多

In addition, our designed symmetric supercapacitor device based on g-C3N4/ZnS composite electrodes can exhibit an energy density of 10.4 Wh/kg at a power density of 187.3 W/kg. As a result, g-C3N4/ZnS composites are expected to be a prospective material for supercapacitors and other energy storage applications.

文摘Gold nanoparticles (NPs) of various shapes were synthesized by a one-step method at ambient temperature in the presence of NaCl. 2-mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) was used as both reducing agent and stabilizing agent. The shapes of gold NPs were controllable by simply tuning S/Au ratio (S is from MSA molecule, and S/Au ratio is controlled by tuning the volume of added MSA solution), and triangle, polygonal and spherical nanoparticles were obtained. This result suggested a new way to consider the effects of MSA on the growth of nanoparticles, which showed that MSA is a strong capping agent and facilitates more uniform growth of nanoparticles in every dimension. And other important factors on nanoparticles growth including NaCl and temperature were discussed. Furthermore, a typical probe molecule, 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP) was used to test the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity of these gold NPs and the results indicated good Raman activity on these substrates. And the enhancement factor (EF) at 1078 cm^- 1 (a1) was estimated to be as large as 6.3 × 10^4 and 5.5 × 10^4 for triangular plates and truncated particles, respectively.

文摘CoSn(OH)6 nanocubes were synthesized by a facile one-step co-precipitate method. Their supercapacitor performances were investigated via a traditional threeelectrode system and all solid-state flexible asymmetric supercapacitor. The electrode shows a maximum specific capacitance up to 695 F·g^-1. The flexible all solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor was fabricated based on CoSn(OH)6 nanocubes and active carbon as positive and negative electrode. The assembled asymmetric supercapacitor exhibits a specific capacitance(97.3 mF·cm^-2), good rate/mechanical stability and a long cycling stability(5000 cycles), demonstrating great promise for applications in all solid-state flexible supercapacitors.

文摘A thermodynamic model has been developed to determine the reaction conditions favoring low temperature direct synthesis of barium titanate (BaTiO3). The method utilizes standard-state thermodynamic data for solid and aqueous species and a 0ebye-Huckel coefficients model to represent solution nonideality. The method has been used to generate phase stability diagrams that indicate the ranges of pH and reagent concentrations, for which various species predominate in the system at a given temperature. Also, yield diagrams have been constructed that indicate the concentration, pH and temperature conditions for which different yields of crystalline BaTiO3 can be obtained. The stability and yield diagrams have been used to predict the optimum synthesis conditions (e.g., reagent concentrations, pH and temperature). Subsequently, these predictions have been experimentally verified. As a result, phase-pure perovskite BaTiO3 has been obtained at temperature ranging from 55 to 85℃ using BaCl2, TiCl4 as a source for Ba and Ti, and NaOH as a precipitator.

文摘Creating adsorption sites by doping heteroatoms into the graphitic structures of carbon electrodes is an effective strategy for improving lithium storage in lithium-ion batteries.In this work,we prepared carbon nanotubes with controllable morphology and controllable nitrogen-doping level by a one-step pyrolysis method through adjusting the amount of urea used during synthesis.Under the synergistic effects of high temperature and Ni-catalyst migration,the carbon nanosheets generated by pyrolysis become coiled into tube-like structures.Characterization using Raman and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that the B and N atoms were successfully co-doped into the resultant carbon nanotubes.When the obtained materials were used as lithium-ion battery anodes,reversible specific capacities of 337.11 and 187.62 mA h g^(−1) were achieved at current densities of 100 and 2000 mA g^(−1),respectively.Moreover,a capacity of 140.53 mA h g^(−1) was retained after 2000 cycles at a current density of 2000 mA g^(−1).The mechanism of lithium storage in these carbon materials was elucidated using cyclic voltammetry tests.Regarding other functional applications,the synthesized composite carbon nanotube material could also be used in other energy-storage battery systems,such as in the sulfur-carrying structures of lithium-sulfur batteries and in the three-dimensional porous structures of sodium batteries.

文摘Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) have been extensively investigated because of its high chemical sustainability, optic properties, and adaptation to the environment. These studies include applications in heterogeneous catalysts, solar cells, coating technology, and electrical devices. TiO2 particles in the nanometer scale can remove limitations, such as the absorbance of organic materials, because of a high surface area to volume ratio. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles, were synthesized using a simple wet chemical method. Their physico-chemical properties were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. The TEM results showed that the mean size of assynthesized TiO2 was 5 nm with high crystalline anatase phase. The SEM observations revealed that the size of nanoparticles increased with annealing temperature and the morphology of the particles changed to the spherical shape. The crystal structure of the nanoparticles before and after annealing was done by XRD analysis. The rutile phase was formed after heat treatment at 600oC for 3 hours.
