However, it remains challenging for effectively integrating the whole substrate/active materials/electrolyte interfaces. Herein by taking Li ion battery as example, we propose a semiconductor-electrochemistry model by which a general but novel insight has been gained into interfacial effect in batteries. Different from those traditional viewpoints, this derived model lies across from physics to electrochemistry. A reaction driving force can be expressed in terms of Fermi energy change,based on the tradeoff between electronic and ionic concentration at the reaction interfacial region. Therefore, at thermodynamic-controlled interface I of substrate/electrode, increasing contact areas can afford higher activity for active materials. Whereas at kinetically-governed interface II of electrode/electrolyte or inside active materials, it is crucial to guarantee high-reaction Li ionic concentration, with which some sufficient reaction degrees can reach.展开更多

Their chemical properties, however, were less explored but can be utilized for energy storage and conversion.In this review, we summarize the recent progress of nanotube-based low dimensional materials for electrochemistry, in particular, lithium storage and hydrogen evolution. First, we describe the atomic structure of low-dimensional heterostructures and briefly touch previous work on planar van der Waals heterostructures(2D+2D) in electrochemistry applications. Then we focus this review on the more recently developed nanotube-based, i.e., 1D+2D and 1D + 1D heterostructures, and discuss their various preparation approaches and electrochemical performances. Finally, we outline the challenges and opportunities in this direction and particularly emphasize the possibility of building high-performance electrodes using a single-walled carbon nanotube-based ultra-thin 1D heterostructure, and the importance of understanding the fundamental mechanism at atomic precision.展开更多

文摘Effectively separating bastnaesite from calcium-bearing gangue minerals(particularly calcite)presents a formidable challenge,making the development of efficient collectors crucial.To achieve this,we have designed and synthesized a novel,highly efficient,water-soluble cationic collector,N-dodecylisopropanolamine(NDIA),for use in the bastnaesite-calcite flotation process.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations identified the amine nitrogen atom in NDIA as the site most susceptible to electrophilic attack and electron loss.By introducing an OH group into the traditional collector dodecylamine(DDA)structure,NDIA provided additional adsorption sites,enabling synergistic adsorption on the surface of bastnaesite,thereby significantly enhancing both the floatability and selectivity of these minerals.The recovery of bastnaesite was 76.02%,while the calcite was 1.26%.The NDIA markedly affected the zeta potential of bastnaesite,while its impact on calcite was relatively minor.Detailed Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR)and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)results elucidated that the―NH―and―OH groups in NDIA anchored onto the bastnaesite surface through robust electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions,thereby enhancing bastnaesite's affinity for NDIA.Furthermore,in situ atomic force microscopy(AFM)provided conclusive evidence of NDIA aggregation on the bastnaesite surface,improving contact angle and hydrophobicity,and significantly boosting the flotation recovery of bastnaesite.

文摘Exploring novel versatile electrode materials with outstanding electrochemical performance is the key to the development of advanced energy conversion and storage devices.In this work,we aim to construct new-fangled one-dimensional(1D)quasi-layered patronite vanadium tetrasulfide(VS_(4))nanostructures by using different sulfur sources,namely thiourea,thioacetamide,and L-cysteine through an ethyleneaminetetraacetic-acid(EDTA)-mediated solvothermal process.The as-prepared VS4exhibits several unique morphologies such as urchin,fluffy nanoflower,and polyhedron with appropriate surface areas.Among the prepared nanostructures,the VS_(4)-1@NF nanostructure exhibited excellent electrochemical properties in 6 M KOH solution,and we explored its redox electrochemistry in detail.The asprepared VS_(4)-1@NF electrode exhibited battery-type redox characteristics with the highest capacity of280 C g^(-1)in a three-electrode assembly.Moreover,it offered a capacity of 123 F g^(-1)in a hybrid twoelectrode set-up at 1 A g^(-1)with the highest specific energy and specific power of 38.5 W h kg^(-1)and750 W kg^(-1),respectively.Furthermore,to ensure the practical applicability and real-world performance of the prepared hybrid AC@NF//VS_(4)-1@NF cell,we performed a cycling stability test with more than 5,000galvanostatic charge–discharge cycles at 2 A g^(-1),and the cell retained around 84.7%of its capacitance even after 5,000 cycles with a CE of 96.1%.

文摘In the past decade, the aprotic lithium-oxygen(Li-O_2) battery has generated a great deal of interest because theoretically it can store more energy than today's lithium-ion batteries. Although considerable research efforts have been devoted to the R&D of this potentially disruptive technology, many scientific and engineering obstacles still remain to be addressed before a practical device could be realized. In this review, we summarize recent advances in the fundamental understanding of the O_2 electrochemistry in Li-O_2 batteries, including the O_2 reduction to Li_2O_2 on discharge and the reverse Li_2 O_2 oxidation on recharge and factors that exert strong influences on the redox of O_2/Li_2O_2. In addition,challenges and perspectives are also provided for the future study of Li—O_2 batteries.

文摘The direct electron transfer of hemoglobin at the PAMAM-MWNTs-AuNPs composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was studied. In a phosphate buffer solution（PBS, pH=7.0）, the formal potential（E^0） of Hb was -0.105 V versus SCE, the electron transfer rate constant was 4.66 s-1. E^0＇ of Hb at the modified electrode was linearly varied in a pH range of 5.0-8.0 with a slope of-49.2 mV/pH. The Hb/PAMAM-MWNTs-AuNPs/GCE gave an excellent electrocatalytic response to the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The catalytic current increased linearly with H2O2 concentration in a range of 1.0× 10^-6 to 2.2× 10^-3 mol/L. The detection limit was 2.0× 10^-7 mol/L at a signal to noise ratio of 3. The Michaelis-Menten constant（Km^app） was 2.95 mmol/L.

文摘Nanotube-based mixed-dimensional or one-dimensional heterostructures have attracted great attention recently because of their unique physical properties and therefore potential for novel devices. Their chemical properties, however, were less explored but can be utilized for energy storage and conversion.In this review, we summarize the recent progress of nanotube-based low dimensional materials for electrochemistry, in particular, lithium storage and hydrogen evolution. First, we describe the atomic structure of low-dimensional heterostructures and briefly touch previous work on planar van der Waals heterostructures(2D+2D) in electrochemistry applications. Then we focus this review on the more recently developed nanotube-based, i.e., 1D+2D and 1D + 1D heterostructures, and discuss their various preparation approaches and electrochemical performances. Finally, we outline the challenges and opportunities in this direction and particularly emphasize the possibility of building high-performance electrodes using a single-walled carbon nanotube-based ultra-thin 1D heterostructure, and the importance of understanding the fundamental mechanism at atomic precision.

文摘Room temperature ionic liquid （RTILs） [BMIM]PF6 was used as a new kind of binder to construct a chemical modified carbon paste electrode （CPE） and the direct electrochemistry of hemoglobin （Hb）, which was immobilized on the surface of RTIL/CPE with the film of sodium alginate hydrogel, was studied by cyclic voltammetry. The presence of RTILs improved the direct electron transfer of Hb and a pair of well-defined quasi-revesible redox peaks appeared in pH 7.0 B-R buffer solution. The cathodic and anodic peak potentials were located at -0.383 V and -0.305 V with the formal potential （E^0） at -0.344 V （vs. SCE）. In addition the immobilized Hb showed good electrocatalytic activity to the reduction of H2O2.
