In movable electrode structures, springs are typically used to push the electrodes and the propellant. The effects of spring pressure on the ignition and combustion of propellants have not yet been studied. In this paper, a universal testing machine and an electrochemical workstation were firstly utilized to investigate the compressive mechanical property and conductivity of Hydroxylamine Nitrate(HAN)-ECSP. The maximum pressure at which the propellant undergoes elastic deformation is 65 kPa. When the spring pressure increased from 5.1 k Pa to 20.4 kPa, the propellant resistance decreased from 56.8 Ω to 36.8 Ω.Various observation methods were employed to study the process of electrical energy injection and the ignition and combustion characteristics under constant voltage. Appropriately increasing the spring pressure can accelerate the injection of electrical energy into the propellant, increase the electrification current, and thus reduce the initial ignition delay time of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 20.4 kPa, the squeezing speed of the propellant is too fast, making it difficult for the propellant to be adequately heated at the electrode interface, which is unfavorable for ignition. Excessive spring pressure also leads to the accumulation of a large amount of combustion residue on the electrode plate, hindering the mixing and diffusion of hot gases during the second ignition process, preventing the gaseous flame of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 5.1 kPa, improving the working voltage can enhance the repeated ignition characteristics of the propellant.展开更多

文摘Halide solid-state electrolytes have gained significant attention in recent years due to their high ionic conductivity,making them promising candidates for future all-solid-state batteries.Recent studies have identified numerous crystal structures with the Li_(3)MX_(6)composition,although many remain unexplored across various chemical systems.In this research,we developed a comprehensive method to examine all conceivable space groups and structures within theLi-M-X system,where M includes In,Ga,and La,and X includes F,Cl,Br,and 1.Our findings revealed two metastable structures:Li_(3)InF_(6)with P3c1 symmetry and Li_(3)InI_(6)with C2/c symmetry,exhibiting ionic conductivities of 0.55 and 2.18mS/cm at 300K,respectively.Notably,the trigonal symmetry of Li3InF6 demonstrates that high ionic conductivities are not limited to monoclinic structures but can also be achieved with trigonal symmetries.The electrochemical stability windows,mechanical properties,and reaction energies of these materials with known cathodes suggest their potential for use in all-solid-state batteries.Additionally,we predicted the stability of novel materials,including Li_(5)InCl_(8),Li_(5)InBr_(8),Li_(5)InI_(8),LiIn_(2)Cl_(9),LiIn_(2)Br_(9),and LiIn_(2)I_(9).

文摘Dimethylphenols serve as important intermediates in synthesizing pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals,yet traditional distillation struggles to separate their isomers due to minimal boiling point differences,and the development of melt crystallization is hampered by lacking solid–liquid equilibrium (SLE) data for some isomers.Therefore,the SLE data of both binary and ternary mixtures of 2,3-dimethylphenol (2,3-DMP),3,5-dimethylphenol (3,5-DMP),and 3,4-dimethylphenol (3,4-DMP) were determined by using differential scanning calorimetry in this work.Additionally,crystallographic analysis was conducted to investigate the thermodynamic characteristics of these mixtures.The experimental results indicated that all the systems investigated in this research exhibited eutectic behavior.The experimentally obtained SLE data were well correlated with the Wilson and non-random two-liquid models.The excess thermodynamic functions were calculated to analyze the types and intensities of the molecular interactions occurring in the mixtures.Furthermore,this study developed a model for the correlation between the theoretical crystallization yield and the actual cooling yield and final yield in melt crystallization.This study has furnished reliable data essential for developing and optimizing the melt crystallization process of mixtures of 2,3-DMP,3,5-DMP,and 3,4-DMP.

文摘This letter addresses challenges in the clinical translation of BIBR1532,a promising telomerase inhibitor,for the treatment of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC).BIBR1532 exerts its anti-cancer effect by activating DNA damage response(ATR/CHK1 and ATM/CHK2)pathways and downregulating telomere-binding proteins.Although its therapeutic potential is limited by poor aqueous solubility,solid dispersion(SD)technology may overcome this obstacle.Systematic analysis using PubChem-derived simplified molecular input line entry system identifiers and artificial intelligence-driven FormulationDT platform evaluation(oral formulation feasibility index:0.38)revealed that the SD technology,with superior scalability(32 approved products by 2021)and lower production risks,outperforms lipid-based formulations as an optimal dissolution strategy.Material analysis revealed hydroxypropyl methylcellulose(HPMC)as the optimal carrier with lower hygroscopicity,higher temperature and no intestinal targeting,thus enabling ESCC therapy.HPMC-based SD enhances BIBR1532 solubility and bioavailability for effective ESCC treatment.Future studies should focus on pilot tests for SD fabrication.

文摘To improve the solid–solid interface performance of all solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs),a novel sandwich-structured solid electrolyte(SSE,total thickness of 0.7 mm)was investigated.It comprises a central layer of perovskite-type Li_(0.37)Sr_(0.44)Zr_(0.25)Ta_(0.75)O_(3)(LSZT)electrolyte(thickness of 0.5 mm)sandwiched between two layers of composite solid polymer electrolyte(CSPE,each with a thickness of 0.1 mm).The thin CSPE interlayer not only effectively reduces interfacial resistance between LSZT and electrodes,but also suppresses Li-induced reduction degradation of LSZT while ensuring uniform current density distribution across the interface.The SSE demonstrates an ionic conductivity of 8.76×10^(−5)S·cm^(−1)at 30℃,increasing to 1.13×10^(−3)S·cm^(−1)at 100℃,with an activation energy of 0.36 eV.In addition,SSE is stable for Li metal and achieves electrochemical stability up to 4.58 V vs.Li^(+)/Li.SSE shows outstanding electrode/electrolyte interfacial compatibility and significant suppression of the growth of Li dendrite.Ascribing to these merits,Li|SSE|Li symmetric cell maintained stable operation for 500 h at a current density of 0.3 mA·cm^(−2)without short circuit,confirming robust interfacial compatibility between SSE and Li electrode.The all-solid-state LiFePO_(4)|Li battery with SSE has an initial reversible discharge capacity of 109.8 mAh·g^(−1)and a reversible capacity of 118.1 mAh·g^(−1)after 50 cycles at a charge/discharge rate of 0.1C(30℃),demonstrating good cycling performance.

文摘Polyethylene oxide(PEO)-based solid polymer electrolytes(SPEs)have long faced limitations due to low ionic conductivity at ambient temperature and poor interfacial stability with lithium metal anodes.Here,we present a structural engineering strategy to address these challenges through shear-induced crystallization of concentrated PEO-LiTFSI solutions,which self-assemble into flower-like spherulites with radially aligned lamellar crystals.This unique structure creates continuous Li^(+)transport highways through densely packed crystalline domains,achieving a record-high ionic conductivity of 1.70×10^(-4) S/cm at 25℃ for pristine PEO-based systems.Strategic incorporation of lithium montmorillonite(MMTli,10 wt%)further optimizes the composite electrolyte,balancing high ionic conductivity(1.47×10^(-4) S/cm)with enhanced electrochemical stability(4.99 V vs.Li^(+)/Li),elevated Li^(+)transference number(0.62),and mechanical robustness.The composite electrolyte enables stable Li plating/stripping over 800 h in symmetric Li||Li cells and powers LiFePO_(4)||Li solid-state batteries with 82%capacity retention after 200 cycles at 0.2 C under ambient conditions.This work pioneers a scalable processing paradigm for crystalline polymer electrolytes,offering new insights into ion transport mechanisms and validating clay minerals as multifunctional additives for next-generation energy storage systems.

文摘Electrically controlled solid propellant(ECSP)offers multiple ignition and adjustable burning rate,serving as fuel for next-generation intelligent propulsion systems.To further enhance the combustion performance of ECSP,a method utilizing electrochemical and thermal decomposition catalysts has been proposed.In this work,we investigated the combustion characteristics of hydroxylamine nitrate(HAN)-based ECSP incorporating cerium oxide(CeO_(2))and graphene oxide(GO)by using an electrically controlled combustion test system.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)and linear sweep voltammetry(LSV)were used to measure the electrical conductibility and overpotential of ECSP with various additives,and Tafel curves were calculated.Thermogravimetric analysis coupled with differential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC)was employed to investigate the thermal decomposition behavior of ECSP.While the addition of CeO_(2) and GO reduced the conductivity of ECSP,both catalysts exhibited strong electrocatalytic properties and facilitated the thermal decomposition of ECSP.Between two catalysts,GO demonstrated superior electrochemical catalytic performance but weaker thermal decomposition catalytic ability than CeO_(2).The addition of catalysts significantly enhanced the combustion performance of HAN-based ECSP.Specifically,the ignition delay time was shortened by 10%~20%.CeO_(2) raised the burning rate by approximately 20%but GO exhibited a remarkable boost of 40%in burning rate at high voltage.The combination of GO and PVA produced a flame-retardant substance that negatively impacted the ignition delay of ECSP and resulted in a smaller increase in the burning rate of ECSP at low ignition voltages.

文摘This work explores the potential of La_(1-x)Pr_(x)NiO_(4+δ)thin films fabricated by Pulsed Injection Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition as oxygen electrodes for low-temperature solid oxide cells.La_(1-x)Pr_(x)NiO_(4+δ)materials offer promising mixed ionic and electronic conductivity and high oxygen reduction reaction kinetics.In this study,we focus on the microstructural and electrochemical properties of LaPrNiO_(4+δ)thin films deposited at various temperatures(600-650℃),revealing that a two-temperature deposition process yields nano-architectured films with a dense bottom film and a porous nano-columnar top layer of the same material.Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrical conductivity relaxation experiments demonstrate enhanced surface exchange coefficients compared to bulk LaPrNiO_(4+δ)and La_(2)NiO_(4+δ)and high performance,with polarization resistances as low as 0.10Ωcm^(2) at 600℃ and 1.00 at 500℃.To better understand the electrochemical behavior of these electrodes,we investigated the limiting mechanisms of oxygen reduction by analyzing the kinetic response to varying oxygen partial pressures and performing detailed impedance analyses.These nano-columnar LaPrNiO_(4+δ)oxygen electrodes were also deposited on commercial half-cells,enabling the resulting full cells to operate successfully in both reversible solid oxide fuel cell and electrolysis cell modes,reaching a performance of 0.34 W cm^(-2) at 600℃ in reversible solid oxide fuel cell mode.This work underscores the promise of LaPrNiO_(4+δ)thin films for efficient low-temperature-solid oxide cells while addressing challenges in durability and stability.

文摘Solid oxide cells(SOCs)have emerged as one of the key technologies for low-carbon energy transition due to their fuel flexibility and high system efficiency.However,their long-term deployment remains hindered by material degradation and interfacial instability under high-temperature and multi-atmospheric operating conditions.In particular,achieving a balance between catalytic activity and structural stability presents a major bottleneck in material design.High-entropy materials(HEMs),with their unique configurational entropy effect,multi-principal element synergy,and tunable local defect chemistry,offer a promising pathway to overcome these limitations.This perspective reviews recent advances in the application of HEMs in SOCs,including element selection and structure tuning,machine-learning-assisted design,in situ leaching and self-assembly engineering,and high-entropy coating strategies.Special attention is paid to how HEMs leverage their multi-elemental composition and defect regulation to enhance electrode performance,stabilize interfaces,and improve tolerance to poisoning species.We further highlight the potential of data-driven approaches for accelerating HEM screening and performance optimization,and discuss the integration of high-throughput experimentation with computational modeling to enable efficient exploration of the vast compositional space.Despite the remarkable progress,key challenges remain in achieving long-term stability and reliability across diverse operating scenarios.Future research should focus on precise control of non-equimolar compositions,development of cross-scale dynamic characterization techniques,and establishment of closed-loop frameworks that couple data-driven models with experimental feedback.These efforts will pave the way toward the rational design of high-performance,durable SOC systems.

文摘Despite the high energy density,lithium metal batteries(LMBs)face significant cycling instability and safety challenges,especially at subzero temperatures.Herein,we report a rationally designed lowconcentrated electrolyte system that employs a low-freezing-point diluent to compress solvation sheaths,enabling the formation of a compact anion-dominated solvation structure that enhances interfacial stability and safety.Molecular dynamics reveal the unique solvation structure with close packing of anions in this low-concentration electrolyte from the micro-mesoscopic scale.The optimized electrolyte combines cost-effectiveness,superior wettability,intrinsic nonflammability,and high stability,concurrently promoting a hybrid organic-inorganic solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)and cathode electrolyte interphase(CEI)for uniform lithium deposition.As a result,the Li‖LiFePO_(4)(LFP)full cells demonstrate stable cycling for 700 cycles at the current density of 4 C.Remarkably,the electrolyte demonstrates exceptional low-temperature performance,indicating broad operational viability.This work provides a promising electrolyte design strategy that addresses both safety and excellent electrochemical performance in high-energy-density metal-based batteries,including but not restricted to Li,Na,K and Zn multivalent ion systems.

文摘Hard carbon is a vital anode material for sodium-ion batteries;however,the nonuniform growth of solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)film substantially diminishes its initial coulombic efficiency(ICE)and cycle life.The chemical and morphological properties of surface highly influence the electrode/electrolyte interfacial reactions.In this study,we have tuned orbital hybridization states forming an interface enriched with sp^(2) hybridized carbon(sp^(2)-C),which decreases the binding energy to solvent molecules and inhibits excessive solvent decomposition during SEI formation.Benefiting from successfully constructed inorganic-rich SEI,the ICE increased to 91%and sodium storage capacity reached 346 mAh/g.Besides,the capacity retention rate was 90.7%after 700 cycles at 1 A/g higher than pristine electrode(83.8%).
文摘Artificial intelligence(AI)is increasingly recognized as a transformative force in the field of solid organ transplantation.From enhancing donor-recipient matching to predicting clinical risks and tailoring immunosuppressive therapy,AI has the potential to improve both operational efficiency and patient outcomes.Despite these advancements,the perspectives of transplant professionals-those at the forefront of critical decision-making-remain insufficiently explored.To address this gap,this study utilizes a multi-round electronic Delphi approach to gather and analyses insights from global experts involved in organ transplantation.Participants are invited to complete structured surveys capturing demographic data,professional roles,institutional practices,and prior exposure to AI technologies.The survey also explores perceptions of AI’s potential benefits.Quantitative responses are analyzed using descriptive statistics,while open-ended qualitative responses undergo thematic analysis.Preliminary findings indicate a generally positive outlook on AI’s role in enhancing transplantation processes,particularly in areas such as donor matching and post-operative care.These mixed views reflect both optimism and caution among professionals tasked with integrating new technologies into high-stakes clinical workflows.By capturing a wide range of expert opinions,the findings will inform future policy development,regulatory considerations,and institutional readiness frameworks for the integration of AI into organ transplantation.

文摘This study focused on improving the cathode performance of Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCN)-based perovskite materials through molybdenum(Mo)doping.Pure BSCN and Mo-modified-BSCN—Ea_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.1)Mo_(0.05)O_(3-δ)(B S CNM_(0.05)),Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Nb_(0.05)Mo_(0.1)O_(3-δ)(BSCNM_(0.1)),and Ba_(0.6)Sr_(0.4)Co_(0.85)Mo_(0.15)O_(3-δ)(BSCM)—with Mo doping contents of 5mol%,10mol%,and15mol%,respectively,were successfully prepared using the sol-gel method.The effects of Mo doping on the crystal structure,conductivity,thermal expansion coefficient,oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)activity,and electrochemical performance were systematically evaluated using X-ray diffraction analysis,thermally induced characterization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy,and single-cell performance tests.The results revealed that Mo doping could improve the conductivity of the materials,suppress their thermal expansion effects,and significantly improve the electrochemical performance.Surface chemical state analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed that 5mol%Mo doping could facilitate a high adsorbed oxygen concentration leading to enhanced ORR activity in the materials.Density functional theory calculations confirmed that Mo doping promoted the ORR activity in the materials.At an operating temperature of 600℃,the BSCNM_(0.05)cathode material exhibited significantly enhanced electrochemical impedance characteristics,with a reduced area specific resistance of 0.048Ω·cm~2,which was lower than that of the undoped BSCN matrix material by 32.39%.At the same operating temperature,an anode-supported single cell using a BSCNM_(0.05)cathode achieved a peak power density of 1477 mW·cm^(-2),which was 30.71%,56.30%,and 171.50%higher than those of BSCN,BSCNM_(0.1),and B SCM,respectively.The improved ORR activity and electrochemical performance of BSCNM_(0.05)indicate that it can be used as a cathode material in low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells.

文摘Physics-informed neural networks(PINNs)have emerged as a promising class of scientific machine learning techniques that integrate governing physical laws into neural network training.Their ability to enforce differential equations,constitutive relations,and boundary conditions within the loss function provides a physically grounded alternative to traditional data-driven models,particularly for solid and structural mechanics,where data are often limited or noisy.This review offers a comprehensive assessment of recent developments in PINNs,combining bibliometric analysis,theoretical foundations,application-oriented insights,and methodological innovations.A biblio-metric survey indicates a rapid increase in publications on PINNs since 2018,with prominent research clusters focused on numerical methods,structural analysis,and forecasting.Building upon this trend,the review consolidates advance-ments across five principal application domains,including forward structural analysis,inverse modeling and parameter identification,structural and topology optimization,assessment of structural integrity,and manufacturing processes.These applications are propelled by substantial methodological advancements,encompassing rigorous enforcement of boundary conditions,modified loss functions,adaptive training,domain decomposition strategies,multi-fidelity and transfer learning approaches,as well as hybrid finite element–PINN integration.These advances address recurring challenges in solid mechanics,such as high-order governing equations,material heterogeneity,complex geometries,localized phenomena,and limited experimental data.Despite remaining challenges in computational cost,scalability,and experimental validation,PINNs are increasingly evolving into specialized,physics-aware tools for practical solid and structural mechanics applications.

文摘High-nickel cathode,LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O_(2)(NCM811),and sulfide-solid electrolyte are a promising combination for all-solid-state lithium batteries(ASSLBs).However,this combination faces the issue of interfacial instability between the cathode and electrolyte.Given the surface alkalinity of NCM811,we propose a strategy to construct a solid-polymer-electrolyte(SPE)interphase on NCM811 surface by leveraging the surface alkaline residues to nucleophilically initiate the in-situ ring-opening polymerization of cyclic organic molecules.As a proof-of-concept,this study demonstrates that the ring-opening copolymerization of 1,3-dioxolane and maleic anhydride produces a homogeneous,compact,and conformal SPE layer on NCM811 surface to prevent the cathode from contact and reaction with Li6PS5Cl solid-state electrolyte.Consequently,the SPE-modified-NCM811 in ASSLBs exhibits high capacities of 193.5 mA h g^(-1) at 0.2 C,160.9 mA h g^(-1) at 2.0 C and 112.3 mA h g^(-1) at 10 C,and particularly,excellent long-term cycling stabilities over 11000 cycles with a 71.95%capacity retention at 10 C at 25℃,as well as a remained capacity of 117.9 mA h g^(-1) after 8000 cycles at 30 C at 60℃,showing a great application prospect.This study provides a new route for creating electrochemically and structurally stable solid-solid interfaces for ASSLBs.

文摘The electrode structures in ignition devices for Electrically Controlled Solid Propellants(ECSP) can be classified into fixed and movable types. In movable electrode structures, springs are typically used to push the electrodes and the propellant. The effects of spring pressure on the ignition and combustion of propellants have not yet been studied. In this paper, a universal testing machine and an electrochemical workstation were firstly utilized to investigate the compressive mechanical property and conductivity of Hydroxylamine Nitrate(HAN)-ECSP. The maximum pressure at which the propellant undergoes elastic deformation is 65 kPa. When the spring pressure increased from 5.1 k Pa to 20.4 kPa, the propellant resistance decreased from 56.8 Ω to 36.8 Ω.Various observation methods were employed to study the process of electrical energy injection and the ignition and combustion characteristics under constant voltage. Appropriately increasing the spring pressure can accelerate the injection of electrical energy into the propellant, increase the electrification current, and thus reduce the initial ignition delay time of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 20.4 kPa, the squeezing speed of the propellant is too fast, making it difficult for the propellant to be adequately heated at the electrode interface, which is unfavorable for ignition. Excessive spring pressure also leads to the accumulation of a large amount of combustion residue on the electrode plate, hindering the mixing and diffusion of hot gases during the second ignition process, preventing the gaseous flame of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 5.1 kPa, improving the working voltage can enhance the repeated ignition characteristics of the propellant.

文摘Composite polymer electrolytes(CPEs)offer a promising solution for all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries(ASSLMBs).However,conventional nanofillers with Lewis-acid-base surfaces make limited contribution to improving the overall performance of CPEs due to their difficulty in achieving robust electrochemical and mechanical interfaces simultaneously.Here,by regulating the surface charge characteristics of halloysite nanotube(HNT),we propose a concept of lithium-ion dynamic interface(Li^(+)-DI)engineering in nano-charged CPE(NCCPE).Results show that the surface charge characteristics of HNTs fundamentally change the Li^(+)-DI,and thereof the mechanical and ion-conduction behaviors of the NCCPEs.Particularly,the HNTs with positively charged surface(HNTs+)lead to a higher Li^(+)transference number(0.86)than that of HNTs-(0.73),but a lower toughness(102.13 MJ m^(-3)for HNTs+and 159.69 MJ m^(-3)for HNTs-).Meanwhile,a strong interface compatibilization effect by Li^(+)is observed for especially the HNTs+-involved Li^(+)-DI,which improves the toughness by 2000%compared with the control.Moreover,HNTs+are more effective to weaken the Li^(+)-solvation strength and facilitate the formation of Li F-rich solid-electrolyte interphase of Li metal compared to HNTs-.The resultant Li|NCCPE|LiFePO4cell delivers a capacity of 144.9 m Ah g^(-1)after 400 cycles at 0.5 C and a capacity retention of 78.6%.This study provides deep insights into understanding the roles of surface charges of nanofillers in regulating the mechanical and electrochemical interfaces in ASSLMBs.

文摘Sodium-based halide solid electrolytes offer excellent electrochemical stability and favorable interfacial compatibility,yet their low ionic conductivity at room temperature limits their application in all-solidstate Na-ion batteries(ASSNIBs),Here,we develop a series of LaCl_(3)-based sodium superionic conductors engineered through cation vacancy-concentration modulation,which facilitates the formation of a threedimensional Na+transport network and increases the density of ion-hopping sites.The optimized Na_(0.4)Ta_(0.236)La_(0.472)Cl_(3)(NTLC)electrolyte achieves a Na+conductivity of 1.38×10^(-3) S/cm at 30℃,with a reduced activation energy of 0.26 eV.It also exhibits excellent mechanical deformation and moderate high-voltage stability,resulting in enhanced interfacial compatibility.When paired directly with an uncoated NaCrO_(2) cathode,the NTLC catholyte enables ASSNIBs to cycle stably over 300 cycles with89.7%capacity retention at 0.3 C and room temperature.This work underscores the potential of vacancy-rich LaCl_(3)-based sodium superionic conductors for advancing high-performance ASSNIBs.
