文摘Proton-conducting oxides constitute a wide class of materials that exhibit pronounced proton transport in humid atmospheres.Owing to their high proton mobility,these oxides are regarded as promising electrolytes for low-and intermediate-temperature protonic ceramic fuel cells and electrolysis cells,which offer efficient and clean energy conversion.Protons appear in complex oxides through a dissociative water adsorption process,which consists of the interaction between existing oxygen vacancies and water molecules in the gas phase.This process is also known as hydration or water uptake.Within the present work,we analyze the hydration features of BaSn_(1-x)In_(x)O_(3-δ)perovskite materials(BSIx),which include a wide range of solid solutions(0≤x<0.7)and a nearly theoretical hydration limit for almost all studied compounds at the same time.The latter is a unique property of In-doped stannates,which is untypical for most other proton-conducting oxides.Along with the experimental data on the water uptake of BSIx,we provide an in-depth investigation of proton concentrations depending on external factors,involving a further comparison with literature data on materials hydration,as well as the discovery of hidden relationships between proton concentration and various functional properties.Therefore,this work contributes to theoretical and applied investigations of proton-conducting oxides,especially in the context of their hydration behavior.

文摘Achieving high-energy density remains a key objective for advanced energy storage systems.However,challenges,such as poor cathode conductivity,anode dendrite formation,polysulfide shuttling,and electrolyte degradation,continue to limit performance and stability.Molecular and ionic dipole interactions have emerged as an effective strategy to address these issues by regulating ionic transport,modulating solvation structures,optimizing interfacial chemistry,and enhancing charge transfer kinetics.These interactions also stabilize electrode interfaces,suppress side reactions,and mitigate anode corrosion,collectively improving the durability of high-energy batteries.A deeper understanding of these mechanisms is essential to guide the design of next-generation battery materials.Herein,this review summarizes the development,classification,and advantages of dipole interactions in high-energy batteries.The roles of dipoles,including facilitating ion transport,controlling solvation dynamics,stabilizing the electric double layer,optimizing solid electrolyte interphase and cathode–electrolyte interface layers,and inhibiting parasitic reactions—are comprehensively discussed.Finally,perspectives on future research directions are proposed to advance dipole-enabled strategies for high-performance energy storage.This review aims to provide insights into the rational design of dipole-interactive systems and promote the progress of electrochemical energy storage technologies.

文摘The global energy crisis and electricity shortage pose unprecedented challenges.Bio-based solar-driven ionic power generation devices with flexibility,photothermal self-healing and scalability hold great promise for sustainable electricity and alleviating energy crisis.Here,inspired by plant transpiration,a multifunctional bio-based ion conductive elastomer with solar power generation capability was designed by engineered synergy among epoxy natural rubber,cellulose nanofibrils,lithium bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide and eumelanin.The film exhibits an outstanding stretchability(1072%)and toughness(22.7 MJ m^(-3)).The favorable synergy of low thermal conductivity,high hygroscopicity and photothermal conversion performance endowed the film with a large thermal gradient under light illumination,driving efficient water transpiration.Furthermore,the excellent interfacial compatibility between eumelanin and matrix facilitates the formation of space charge regions,which further enhances Li^(+)transport.The film demonstrates excellent evaporation rate(2.83 kg m^(-2)h^(-1)),output voltage(0.47 V)and conductivity(5.11×10^(-2)S m^(-1)).Notably,the film exhibits remarkable photothermal self-healing performance even in saline environment,achieving 99.6%healing efficiency of output voltage.Therefore,the film demonstrates significant prospects for applications in photo-thermoelectric generation and solar-driven ionic power generation.
文摘The preparation of ionic liquid gel electrolyte can reduce the occurrence of side effects and extend battery life.In the DMSO-ILZE electrolyte composed of DMSO,1-ethyl-3-methylimidazole tetrafluoroborate(EMIMBF_(4))and Zn(BF_(4))_(2),the supramolecular gelatorβ-cyclodextrin(β-CD)was added,and then a gel electrolyte(CD-ILZE)for zinc-ion batteries was prepared through host-vip interaction betweenβ-CD and DMSO-ILZE electrolyte.The gel electrolyte has good conductivity between-30 and 80℃,which is found by fitting the Arrhenius equation that the gel electrolyte satisfies the liquid law within this temperature range.In addition,the supramolecular gel electrolyte can effectively decrease hydrogen evolution corrosion and the formation of zinc dendrites.Compared with the battery prepared by DMSO-ILZE electrolyte(about 1100 h),the prepared Zn||Zn battery exhibits a more stable cycle(over 2800 h)at a current density of 0.5 m A·cm^(-2).At 0.1 A·g^(-1),the prepared Zn||V_(2)O_(5)gel electrolyte cell has a capacity of 30 m Ah·g^(-1)and a capacity retention rate of 85.17%after more than 1500 cycles.The CD-ILZE supramolecular gel electrolyte can inhibit the formation of hydrogen evolution corrosion and zinc dendrites,and improve the cycling performance of the battery.

文摘Suffusion refers to the loss of fineparticles within the soil matrix without any associated volume change,induced by hydrodynamic forces.This study investigated the suffusion of sand-clay mixtures through one-dimensional soil column experiments under a stepwise increase in hydraulic gradient(i),aiming to evaluate the critical hydraulic gradient(icrit)as a function of the size ratio between sand and clay,clay type,and ionic concentration.It was found that icrit was less than 0.1 for all sand-clay mixtures examined in this study.In addition,the lower peak concentrations of filtrated clay observed in sand-illite mixtures,compared to those of sand-kaolinite mixtures at the same level of i,suggest that illite particles are more susceptible to suffusion.Overall,the observed breakthrough curves,mass fraction of filtrated clay,volume of outflow,and total injection time presented in this study highlight the importance of considering clay type,sand-to-clay size ratio,and ionic concentration when assessing the suffusion behavior of clay-containing soils under a stepwise increase in hydraulic gradient.

文摘When a ceramic ionic-crystal nanocluster is group-substituted with polymer chain segments to form an ionomeric aggregate,is the ordered structure maintained within the sterically hindered nanocluster?We observed,for Na-salt sulfonated polystyrene ionomer,the electron-diffraction lattice fringes of the nanoclusters,which proved their internal crystalline ordering driven by electrostatic attractions overcoming steric hindrance.Kinetically,the nanoclusters'enhanced melting endotherm upon aging indicate their quasi-,slow-ordering character.Extended tight binding molecular dynamics simulations provide an insight into the mechanism underlying the ionic-group aggregation during nanoclustering.We hence proposed an uncommon state of order,polymer-bound ceramic quasicrystal,supplementary to the order phenomena in crystalline ceramics.

文摘Osmotic energy,existing between the seawater and river water,is a renewable energy source,which can be directly converted into electricity by ion-exchange membranes(IEM).In traditional IEMs,the ion transport channels are formed by nanophase separation of hydrophilic ion carriers and hydrophobic segments.It is difficult to realize high-density ion channels with controlled spatial arrangement and length scale of ion carriers.Herein,we construct high-density 1D ion wires as transmission channels.Through molecular design,hydrophilic imidazole groups and hydrophobic alkyl tails were introduced into the repeat units,which self-assembled into 1D ion transporting core and protecting shell along the main chains.The areal density of the ionic wire arrays is up to~10^(12)cm^(-2),which is the highest value.The ionic wires ensure both high ion flux transport and high selectivity,achieving an ultrahigh-power density of 40.5 W m^(-2)at a 500-fold salinity gradient.Besides,the ionic wire array membrane is well recyclable and antibacterial.The ionic wires provide novel concept for next generation of high-performance membranes.

文摘Separation of 2-methylfuran(2-MF)and methanol(MeOH)azeotropes is a key challenge in biofuel production because of the efficiency and sustainability issues of conventional methods.In this study,ionic liquids(ILs)were introduced as green solvents for separation of 2-MF/MeOH through liquid–liquid equilibrium(LLE)experiment.Three ILs,namely 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazole dihydrogen phosphate([EMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)]),1-propyl-3-methylimidazole dihydrogen phosphate([PMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)])and 1-butyl-3-methylimidazole dihydrogen phosphate([BMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)]),were screened out from 425 candidates using the conductor-like screening model for real solvents(COSMO-RS).Then,the ternary LLE data of 2-MF(1)+MeOH(2)+ILs(3)were determined at 30℃ and 101.32 kPa.Results confirmed[EMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)]as the best performer,achieving a selectivity of 343.86 and a distribution coefficient of 36.66 for MeOH—significantly higher than[PMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)]and[BMIM][H_(2)PO_(4)].The accuracy of the LLE data was verified by Othmer–Tobias and Hand equations(R^(2)>0.90).The non-random two liquid model was used to correlate the experimental data(RMSD<2%).Besides,the combination of electrostatic surfaces potential,independent gradient model based on Hirshfeld partition,mean square displacement and radial distribution functions revealed strong electrostatic interactions between[H_(2)PO_(4)]^(–) and MeOH.Interaction energy analysis further emphasizes the mechanism of MeOH separation from a mixture of 2-MF and MeOH by ILs.This work provides a multiscale strategy for the separation of 2-MF and MeOH azeotropes,highlighting the potential of ILs to improve biofuel purification while reducing energy and environmental costs.

文摘Porous ionic liquid electrospray thrusters are the ideal propulsion technology for CubeSats because of their structural simplicity,high thrust accuracy and plume self-neutralization.The electrowetting technology can replenish the propellant for the emitter online,thus prolonging the lifetime of the thruster.In order to gain a deeper understanding of its operating characteristics,the changes in thruster performance before and after propellant replenishment deserve to be scrutinized.In this study,the performance changes of a porous electrowetting ionic liquid electrospray thruster are tested by voltage-current test and time-of-flight mass spectrometry over a long operating time.The experimental results show that asymmetric operation with a negative current less than positive current for a long period of time causes anions to compensate for the emission after accumulation at the emitter,resulting in a phenomenon that the negative current is much larger than positive current.The reason for the difference in emission characteristics between the positive and negative modes is that the plume in the positive mode is quite ionized while the plume in the negative mode contains liquid droplets.This study provides a reference for the selection of operating conditions for ionic liquid electrospray thrusters.

文摘Lignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant re-newable resource on Earth,boasting advan-tages such as wide avail-ability and negative car-bon emissions.Especial-ly,efficient separation of lignocellulose into cellu-lose,hemicellulose and lignin,and realizing val-orization of these compo-nents are more responsive to the development needs of biomass refinery and the green chem-istry era.This review outlines the main components of lignocellulose and briefly summerizes their utilization in chemical raw materials and energy production.It mainly focused on cur-rent advances in component separation methods of lignocellulose by organic solvents,ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents.The design of separation methods,understanding of sepa-ration mechanisms,and optimization of reaction systems in each method are highlighted in detail.Furthermore,the ongoing challenges and future directions based on mechanism and in-dustrialization are critically discussed.Our goal is to elucidate the separation mechanisms and principles of method design,providing guidance for the development of highly efficient com-ponent separation methods of lignocellulose.

文摘Flexible pressure sensors are widely used in fields such as healthcare,owing to their simple preparation method,abundant raw materials,and high sensitivity.To solve the problems of low sensitivity and high noise impact that arise with traditional capacitive pressure sensors,this paper proposes an electrical double layer microarray capacitive pressure sensor using silver nanowires(AgNW)and ionic liquids.AgNW/polyimide(PI)flexible electrodes and microarray-structured ionic liquids are utilized to obtain highly sensitive responses to changes in weak physiological signals.The microarray structure is a 20×20 quadrangular prism convex array.Experimental tests show that the sensor has high sensitivity(3.1202 kPa^(−1),0–800 kPa)and fast response/recovery times(100/100 ms).By flexibly attaching the sensor to the skin or a computer mouse,rapid and stable monitoring of micromovements such as facial muscles,vocalization,swallowing,finger joint activity,and mouse clicks can be achieved.The results obtained here are of value for the development of intelligent flexible electronics.

文摘The rapid proliferation of microelectronics,coupled with the advent of the internet ofthings(IoT)era,has created an urgent demand for miniaturized,integrable,and reliable on-chip energystorage systems.All-solid-state thin-film microbatteries(TFMBs),distinguished by their intrinsicsafety,compact design,and compatibility with microfabrication techniques,have emerged as promisingcandidates to power next-generation IoT devices.Nevertheless,in contrast to the well-establisheddevelopment of conventional lithium-ion batteries,the advancement of TFMBs remains at an earlystage,facing persistent challenges in materials innovation,interface optimization,and scalable manufacturing.This review critically examines the pivotal role of vapor deposition technologies,includingmagnetron sputtering,pulsed laser deposition,thermal/electron-beam evaporation,chemical vapordeposition,and atomic layer deposition,in the fabrication and performance modulation of TFMBs.We systematically summarize recent progress in thin-film electrodes and solid-state electrolytes,withparticular emphasis on how deposition parameters dictate crystallinity,lattice orientation,and ionictransport in functional layers.Furthermore,we highlight strategies for solid-solid interface engineering,three-dimensional structural design,andmultifunctional integration to enhance capacity retention,cycling stability,and interfacial compatibility.Looking ahead,TFMBs are expectedto evolve toward multifunctional platforms,exhibiting mechanical flexibility,optical transparency,and hybrid energy-harvesting compatibility,thereby meeting the heterogeneous energy requirements of future IoT ecosystems.Overall,this review provides a comprehensive perspective onvapor-phase-enabled TFMB technologies,delivering both theoretical insights and technological guidelines for the scalable realization of highperformancemicroscale power sources.

文摘The synthesis of propylene carbonate(PC)from CO_(2) and propylene oxide(PO)is a typical gas-liquid biphasic system,where gas-liquid mass transfer efficiency significantly influences CO_(2) cycloaddition reactions.Here,we proposed a microchannel reaction system for the CO_(2) cycloaddition reaction catalyzed by ionic liquid within an aqueous environment.The effect of liquid flow rate,temperature and residence time on gas-liquid flow pattern,catalytic performance and mass transfer were systematically investigated.The results revealed that the PC generation rate reached 560.11 mmol·ml^(−1)·h^(−1)at a 50 cm of flow distance under reaction conditions of 105℃,2.5 MPa,QG=176 ml·min^(−1) and QL=0.3 ml·min^(−1).Variations in mass transfer rate and reaction rate at different flow distances were experimentally studied.The reaction efficiency gradually decreased with increasing flow distance,which were attributed to the reduction of mass transfer caused by decreasing bubble velocity.Optimizing bubble velocity at an appropriate position enhanced reaction efficiency by improving mass transfer,achieving a 97.7%PC yield within 2.85 min.Furthermore,a kinetic model coupling intrinsic kinetics with gas-liquid mass transfer was developed for CO_(2) cycloaddition reaction.The kinetic model was applied to predict PC reaction rates in microchannel reactors at various temperatures and liquid flow rates,achieving an average relative error of 9.6%.

文摘The structural design and performance characteristics of the diaphragm have a decisive impact on the safety and electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs).However,traditional polyolefin diaphragms still face challenges in simultaneously improving the ion transport efficiency and thermal stability.Here,we report an in situ dynamic lithium compensation strategy for manufacturing a biobased furan aramid/ceramic diaphragm(BAS)with higher thermal stability and ion transport efficiency.Specifically,exchangeable carboxyl groups(–COOH)are introduced into the bio-based furan aramid(BA)framework,which are in situ converted into–COOLi groups to form lithium ions(Li^(+))transport channels,achieving dynamic compensation of active Li^(+).The dual transmission system of ion exchange and physical pore channels synergistically enhances the ionic conductivity of BAS to 1.536 mS cm^(-1).The high polarity structure of the furan ring and the electrolyte have excellent compatibility,significantly reducing the solid–liquid interfacial energy,making BAS have extremely high electrolyte wettability(contact angle of 0°).The BA amide group forms a multi-scale bonding network with the nano-ceramics.The BAS prepared by the water-coating process exhibits excellent thermal stability(with a thermal shrinkage rate of less than 1%after 1 h at 150℃).The LiFePO_(4)|Li half-cell assembled with BAS shows a capacity retention rate of up to 91.7%after 280 cycles at 1C,with a Coulomb efficiency of 99%,demonstrating excellent cycling stability.This design and development based on bio-materials provides a new approach for high safety and high energy density battery systems.
