Leaching studies on LiCoO_(2) identified optimal conditions as follows: 2.4 mol/L MSA, 1.6 mol/L CA, S/L ratio of 80 g/L, leaching temperature of 90oC and leaching time of 6 h. The maximum Co and Li extraction achieved was 92% and 85%, respectively. LiCoO_(2) dissolution in MSA-CA leaching solution is highly impacted by temperature;Avrami equation showed a good fitting for the leaching data. The experimental activation energy of Co and Li was 50.98 kJ/mol and 50.55 kJ/mol, respectively, indicating that it is a chemical reaction-controlled process. Furthermore, cobalt was efficiently recovered from the leachate using oxalic acid, achieving a precipitation efficiency of 99.91% and a high-purity cobalt oxalate product (99.85 wt.%). In the MSA-CA leaching solution, MSA served as a lixiviant, while CA played a key role in reducing Co in LiCoO_(2). The overall organic acid leaching methodology presents an attractive option due to its reduced environmental impact.展开更多

文摘With the rapid development of new energy and the high proportion of new energy connected to the grid,energy storage has become the leading technology driving significant adjustments in the global energy landscape.Electrochemical energy storage,as the most popular and promising energy storage method,has received extensive attention.Currently,the most widely used energy storage method is metal-ion secondary batteries,whose performance mainly depends on the cathode material.Prussian blue analogues(PBAs)have a unique open framework structures that allow quick and reversible insertion/extraction of metal ions such as Na^(+),K^(+),Zn^(2+),Li^(+)etc.,thus attracting widespread attention.The advantages of simple synthesis process,abundant resources,and low cost also distinguish it from its counterparts.Unfortunately,the crystal water and structural defects in the PBAs lattice that is generated during the synthesis process,as well as the low Na content,significantly affect their electrochemical performance.This paper focuses on PBAs’synthesis methods,crystal structure,modification strategies,and their potential applications as cathode materials for various metal ion secondary batteries and looks forward to their future development direction.

文摘Facilitating anion redox chemistry is an effective strategy to increase the capacity of layered oxides for sodium-ion batteries.Nevertheless,there remains a paucity of literature pertaining to the oxygen redox chemistry of O3-type layered oxide cathode materials.This work systematically investigates the effect of Fe doping on the anionic oxygen redox chemistry and electrochemical reactions in O3-NaNi_(0.4)Cu_(0.1)Mn_(0.4)Ti_(0.1)O_(2).The results of the density functional theory(DFT)calculations indicate that the electrons of the O 2p occupy a higher energy level.In the ex-situ X-ray photoelectron spectrometer(XPS)of O 1s,the addition of Fe facilitates the lattice oxygen(O^(n-))to exhibit enhanced activity at 4.45 V.The in-situ X-ray diffraction(XRD)demonstrates that the doping of Fe effectively suppresses the Y phase transition at high voltages.Furthermore,the Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique(GITT)data indicate that Fe doping significantly increases the Na~+migration rate at high voltages.Consequently,the substitution of Fe can elevate the cut-off voltage to 4.45 V,thereby facilitating electron migration from O^(2-).The redox of O^(2-)/O^(n-)(n<2)contributes to the overall capacity.O3-Na(Ni_(0.4)Cu_(0.1)Mn_(0.4)Ti_(0.1))_(0.92)Fe_(0.08)O_(2)provides an initial discharge specific capacity of 180.55 mA h g^(-1)and71.6%capacity retention at 0.5 C(1 C=240 mA g^(-1)).This work not only demonstrates the beneficial impact of Fe substitution for promoting the redox activity and reversibility of O^(2-)in 03-type layered oxides,but also guarantees the structural integrity of the cathode materials at high voltages(>4.2 V).It offers a novel avenue for investigating the anionic redox reaction in O3-type layered oxides to design advanced cathode materials.

文摘Rechargeable magnesium batteries(RMBs)are a cutting-edge energy storage solution,with several advantages over the state-of-art lithiumion batteries(LIBs).The use of magnesium(Mg)metal as an anode material provides a much higher gravimetric capacity compared to graphite,which is currently used as the anode material in LIBs.Despite the significant advances in electrolyte,the development of cathode material is limited to materials that operate at low average discharge voltage(<1.0 V vs.Mg/Mg^(2+)),and developing high voltage cathodes remains challenging.Only a few materials have been shown to intercalate Mg^(2+)ions reversibly at high voltage.This review focuses on the structural aspects of cathode material that can operate at high voltage,including the Mg^(2+)intercalation mechanism in relation to its electrochemical properties.The materials are categorized into transition metal oxides and polyanions and subcategorized by the intrinsic Mg^(2+)diffusion path.This review also provides insights into the future development of each material,aiming to stimulate and guide researchers working in this field towards further advancements in high voltage cathodes.

文摘P3-type manganese-iron-based cathodes with high specific capacity and abundant resource have attracted considerable attention for sodium-ion batteries.However,the long-term cycle stability of P3-type cathodes is still not satisfactory.In this work,we design a new quaternary manganese-iron-based cathode material(P3-Na_(0.54)Mn_(0.64)Fe_(_(0.1)6)Mg_(0.1)Cu_(0.1)O_(2))by Cu substitution.The strong covalent Cu-O bonds improve the structural stability and the reversibility of O redox during charge and discharge processes.Cu substitution also mitigates the structure change with less unit cell volume variation,and improves the Na-ion transport kinetics effectively.As a result,NMFMC delivers much improved cycling stability and rate capability compared with NMFM.It reveals that the charge compensation of NMFMC is mainly contributed by Mn^(3+/4+),Fe^(3+/3.5+)and O_(2-/-)during the charge and discharge processes,and Cu substitution can also enhance the activity and reversibility of Fe redox.This strategy provides a new pathway toward improving the stability and O redox reversibility of P3-type cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries.

文摘Sluggish conversion reaction kinetics and spontaneous shuttle effect of lithium polysulfides(LiPSs)are deemed as the two big mountains that hinder the practical application of lithium-sulfur batteries(LSBs).Herein,dual-defect engineering strategy is implemented by introducing boron-doping and phosphorusvacancy sites with MoP@NC composite as the precursor.Based on the experimental characterizations and theoretical calculations,B-MoP_(1-x)@NC-based electrode presents low oxidation potential,high lithium diffusivity,small Tafel slope and strong adsorption capability for polysulfides,which is beneficial to enhance the adsorption capability for LiPSs,reduce the lithium diffusion energy barriers and Gibbs free energy for the conversion reactions of LiPSs.As demonstrated,the corresponding Li-S/B-MoP1-x@NC batteries can remain high reversible capacity of 753 mAh/g at 0.5 C after 300 cycles,and keep a stable capacity of 520 mAh/g at 0.5 C after 100 cycles even at the high-loading content of 5.1mg/cm^(2).According to the results of in-situ UV–vis spectra,the satisfactory battery performance majorly originates from the existence of dual-defect characteristics in B-MoP1-x@NC catalyst,which effectively promotes the conversion reaction kinetics of LiPSs,and restrains the shuttle behavior of LiPSs.The key ideas of this work will enlighten the development of catalytic cathode materials for sulfur-based secondary batteries.

文摘Anti-perovskite cathodes,typified by Li_(2)FeSO,hold great promise for Li-ion batteries due to their high specific capacity,cost-effectiveness,and ease of production.However,their utilization in high-energydensity batteries is hindered by low Li intercalation voltage and limited rate performance.This study employs first-principles calculations to assess the impact of element substitutions and doping on the voltage and Li-ion migration energy barrier in Li_(2)TMSO(TM=Cu,Ni,Co,Fe,V,Cr,Ti)anti-perovskite materials.Our findings reveal that replacing the S element with Se or Te in Li_(2)FeSO and Li_(2)MnSO can reduce the voltage.For Li_(2)TMSO(TM=Cu,Ni,Co,Fe,V,Cr,Ti),the voltage increases as TM changes from Ti to Ni.This process closely related to the downward shift of the TM-3d electron orbital energy level.When the energy level difference between TM-3d and S-3p orbital energy levels is large,the voltage is determined by TM-3d orbitals.When the difference is small,S-3p participates in the reaction.Additionally,doping with the inactive element Mg could allow deeper energy level electrons to participate in the reaction,thus increasing the voltage.To simultaneously enhance intercalation voltage and rate performance,we investigated multi-element doping strategies for anti-perovskite cathode materials.Our study establishes a solid foundation the development of high-voltage anti-perovskite cathodes,holding promise for significant advancements in energy storage technology.

文摘Although manganese-based oxide is regarded as a promising cathode material for zincion hybrid supercapacitors(ZHSCs),its practical application is hindered by slow zinc ion diffusion and the instability of MnO_(2).To overcome this obstacle,a δ-MnO_(2)/MXene heterostructure was created using a simple one-step process under gentle condition.The ZHSC was assembled using this heterostructure as the cathode,activated carbon(AC)as the anode and 2 mol·L−1 ZnSO_(4) as the electrolyte.The resultingδ-MnO_(2)/MXene//ZnSO4//AC ZHSC shows a maximum specific capacitance of 97.4 F·g^(−1) and an energy density of 32.27 Wh·kg^(−1) at the best cathode-to-anode mass ratio.Ex situ characterizations reveal the reversible energy storage mechanism combing Zn^(2+)insertion/extraction in the cathode,ion adsorption and desorption on the anode surface,and partial reversible formation and dissolution of Zn_(4)SO_(4)(OH)_(6)·5H_(2)O(ZHS)components on both electrodes.Adding of Mn^(2+)to the electrolyte reduced Mn dissolution,improving the ZHSC’s specific capacitance and energy density to 140.4 F·g^(−1) and 49.36 Wh·kg^(−1),respectively,while also enhancing its rate performance and cyclability.The improved electrochemical reaction kinetics was verified through various tests.The results suggest that the δ-MnO_(2)/MXene heterostructure has great potential as a high-performance cathode material for ZHSCs.

文摘Although lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)currently dominate a wide spectrum of energy storage applications,they face challenges such as fast cycle life decay and poor stability that hinder their further application.To address these limitations,element doping has emerged as a prevalent strategy to enhance the discharge capacity and extend the durability of Li-Ni-Co-Mn(LNCM)ternary compounds.This study utilized a machine learning-driven feature screening method to effectively pinpoint four key features crucially impacting the initial discharge capacity(IC)of Li-Ni-Co-Mn(LNCM)ternary cathode materials.These features were also proved highly predictive for the 50^(th)cycle discharge capacity(EC).Additionally,the application of SHAP value analysis yielded an in-depth understanding of the interplay between these features and discharge performance.This insight offers valuable direction for future advancements in the development of LNCM cathode materials,effectively promoting this field toward greater efficiency and sustainability.
文摘This study focuses on using a green reagent scheme of methanesulfonic acid (MSA) and citric acid (CA) to extract valuable metals from the cathodes, aiming to minimize environmental impact during the recycling process. Leaching studies on LiCoO_(2) identified optimal conditions as follows: 2.4 mol/L MSA, 1.6 mol/L CA, S/L ratio of 80 g/L, leaching temperature of 90oC and leaching time of 6 h. The maximum Co and Li extraction achieved was 92% and 85%, respectively. LiCoO_(2) dissolution in MSA-CA leaching solution is highly impacted by temperature;Avrami equation showed a good fitting for the leaching data. The experimental activation energy of Co and Li was 50.98 kJ/mol and 50.55 kJ/mol, respectively, indicating that it is a chemical reaction-controlled process. Furthermore, cobalt was efficiently recovered from the leachate using oxalic acid, achieving a precipitation efficiency of 99.91% and a high-purity cobalt oxalate product (99.85 wt.%). In the MSA-CA leaching solution, MSA served as a lixiviant, while CA played a key role in reducing Co in LiCoO_(2). The overall organic acid leaching methodology presents an attractive option due to its reduced environmental impact.
