Herein, the anion-site regulation is proposed to elevate the electrode kinetics and properties of polyanionic cathode. Multivalent anion P_(2)O_(7)^(4-) is selected to substitute the PO_(4)^(3-) in Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3) (NVP) lattice and regulate the ratio of polyanion groups to prepare Na_(3+x)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3-x)(P_(2)O_(7))_(x)(NVPP_(x), 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15) materials.The optimal Na_(3.1)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(2.9)(P_(2)O_(7))_(0.1) (NVPP_(0.1)) material can deliver remarkably elevated specific capacity(104 mAh g^(-1) at 0.1 C, 60 mAh g^(-1) at 20 C, respectively), which is higher than those of NVP. Moreover, NVPP_(0.1) exhibits outstanding cyclic stability(91% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 1 C). Experimental analyses reveal that the regulation of anions improves the structure stability, increases the active Na occupancy in the lattice and accelerates the Na+migration kinetics. The strategy of anion-site regulation provides the researchers a reference for the design of new high-performance polyanionic materials.展开更多

With the aids of Kevlar polyanionic chains, thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU) foams reinforced by aramid nanofibers(ANF) with adjustable pore-size distribution were successfully obtained via a nonsolvent-induced phase separation. In this regard, the most outstanding result is the in situ formation of ANF in TPU foams after protonation of Kevlar polyanion during the NIPS process. Furthermore, in situ growth of copper nanoparticles(Cu NPs) on TPU/ANF foams was performed according to the electroless deposition by using the tiny amount of pre-blended Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene as reducing agents. Particularly, the existence of Cu NPs layers significantly promoted the storage modulus in 2,932% increments, and the well-designed TPU/ANF/Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene(PAM-Cu) composite foams showed distinguished compressive cycle stability. Taking virtues of the highly ordered and elastic porous architectures, the PAM-Cu foams were utilized as piezoresistive sensor exhibiting board compressive interval of 0–344.5 kPa(50% strain) with good sensitivity at 0.46 kPa^(-1). Meanwhile,the PAM-Cu foams displayed remarkable EMI shielding effectiveness at 79.09 dB in X band. This work provides an ideal strategy to fabricate highly ordered TPU foams with outstanding elastic recovery and excellent EMI shielding performance, which can be used as a promising candidate in integration of satisfactory piezoresistive sensor and EMI shielding applications for human–machine interfaces.展开更多

Herein,polyanion（BO3）^3-doped Li3V2（PO4）3 cathode materials were successfully synthesized via a wet coordination method. The effects of（BO3）^3- doping content on crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical performance were explored by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, cyclic voltammetry（CV） and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS）. All the asprepared samples have the same monoclinic structure;among them, Li3V2（PO4）（2.75）（BO3）（0.15） sample has relatively uniform and optimized particle size. In addition, this sample has the highest discharge capacity and the best cycling stability, with an initial discharge capacity of 120.4mAh·g^-1, and after 30 cycles at a rate of 0.1C, the discharge capacity still remains 119.3 mAh·g^-1. It is confirmed that moderate polyanion（BO3）^3- doping can rearrange the electronic structure of the bulk Li3V2（PO4）3,lower the charge transfer resistance and further improve the electrochemical behaviors.展开更多

The configurations of cage units P8 4- and P9 5- are stable due to the less torsion, but their ES values are relatively higher than that of P7 3- with more μ2?P atoms and the isolated stability is lower than that of P7 . They potentially play an important role as intermediate 3- in chemical reaction of producing complicated polyphosphides. Based on the related electronic properties, a stable polyanion must have low valence electron concentration, no (μ2?P)?(μ2?P) bond and a little dispersive charge. The earmark IR frequencies of cage units have been assigned to the vibration models in the end.展开更多

The [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)]<sup>2+</sup> complexes with L either a 4-phenyl pyridine (4-phpy) or phenyl imidazole (phimd) group exhibit moderate luminescent intensity in the visible region, their intensities are highly altered by the addition of DNA and other polyanion samples. These luminescent responses to polyanions were also compared with the [Ru(phen)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> complex. In ethanol solution, the presence of polyanions significantly enhanced the luminescent emission intensity of [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)]<sup>2+</sup> complexes with a blue shift. While the polyanions all showed emission enhancement on the highly lumi-nescent [Ru(phen)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> complex in ethanol solution with a red spectra shift. The [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)] <sup>2+</sup> with (phimd) ligand has the lowest emission in ethanol solution, its intensity can be enhanced up to 11 times in the presence of DNA polyanions. This enhancement for all the complexes in ethanol is mainly due to their electrostatic interaction with the anion sites and with some degree of ligand intercalation into the polyanion hydrophobic structure which reduced the solvent quenching of the complexes. The blue shift of the (4-phpy) and particularly (phimd) Os(II)CO complexes indicate an insertion of the (4-phpy) or (phimd) group into the polymer chains. The two new Os(II)CO complexes has great potential to be used as luminescence sensors for DNA and polyanion detection in the low micro molar range with high sensitivity.展开更多

文摘Mixing polyanion cathode materials are promising candidates for the development of next-generation batteries, owing to their structural robustness and low-volume changes, yet low conductivity of polyanion hinders their practical capacity. Herein, the anion-site regulation is proposed to elevate the electrode kinetics and properties of polyanionic cathode. Multivalent anion P_(2)O_(7)^(4-) is selected to substitute the PO_(4)^(3-) in Na_(3)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3) (NVP) lattice and regulate the ratio of polyanion groups to prepare Na_(3+x)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(3-x)(P_(2)O_(7))_(x)(NVPP_(x), 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15) materials.The optimal Na_(3.1)V_(2)(PO_(4))_(2.9)(P_(2)O_(7))_(0.1) (NVPP_(0.1)) material can deliver remarkably elevated specific capacity(104 mAh g^(-1) at 0.1 C, 60 mAh g^(-1) at 20 C, respectively), which is higher than those of NVP. Moreover, NVPP_(0.1) exhibits outstanding cyclic stability(91% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 1 C). Experimental analyses reveal that the regulation of anions improves the structure stability, increases the active Na occupancy in the lattice and accelerates the Na+migration kinetics. The strategy of anion-site regulation provides the researchers a reference for the design of new high-performance polyanionic materials.

文摘With the development of industrialization,the emission of volatile organic compounds(VOCs)to atmosphere causes serious environmental problems and the treatment of VOCs needs to consume a lot of energy.Moreover,indoor VOCs are seriously harmful to human health.Thus,there is an urgent requirement for the development of indoor VOCs treatment technologies.Catalytic degradation of VOCs,as a low energy consumption,high efficiency,and easy to achieve manner,has been widely studied in related fields.As a kind of transition metal catalyst,manganese-based catalysts have attracted a lot of attention in the catalytic degradation of VOCs because of their unique advantages including high efficiency,low cost,and excellent stability.This paper reviews the state-of-the-art progress of manganese-based catalysts for VOCs catalytic degradation.We introduce the thermocatalytic,photocatalytic and photo-thermocatalytic degradation of VOCs on manganese-based catalysts in this paper.The optimization of manganese-based catalysts by means of structural design,decorating modification and defect engineering is discussed.

文摘Improving the reversibility of anionic redox and inhibiting irreversible oxygen evolution are the main challenges in the application of high reversible capacity Li-rich Mn-based cathode materials.A facile synchronous lithiation strategy combining the advantages of yttrium doping and LiYO_(2) surface coating is proposed.Yttrium doping effectively suppresses the oxygen evolution during the delithiation process by increasing the energy barrier of oxygen evolution reaction through strong Y–O bond energy.LiYO_(2) nanocoating has the function of structural constraint and protection,that protecting the lattice oxygen exposed to the surface,thus avoiding irreversible oxidation.As an Li^(+) conductor,LiYO_(2) nano-coating can provide a fast Li^(+) transfer channel,which enables the sample to have excellent rate performance.The synergistic effect of Y doping and nano-LiYO_(2) coating integration suppresses the oxygen release from the surface,accelerates the diffusion of Li^(+)from electrolyte to electrode and decreases the interfacial side reactions,enabling the lithium ion batteries to obtain good electrochemical performance.The lithium-ion full cell employing the Y-1 sample(cathode)and commercial graphite(anode)exhibit an excellent specific energy density of 442.9 Wh kg^(-1) at a current density of 0.1C,with very stable safety performance,which can be used in a wide temperature range(60 to-15℃)stable operation.This result illustrates a new integration strategy for advanced cathode materials to achieve high specific energy density.

文摘Aqueous Zn-ion energy storage systems,which are expected to be integrated into intelligent electronics as a secure power supply,suffer poor reversibility of Zn anodes,predominantly associated with dendritic growth and side reactions.This study introduces a polyanionic strategy to address these formidable issues by developing a hydrogel electrolyte(PACXHE)with carboxyl groups.Notably,the carboxyl groups within the hydrogel structure establish favorable channels to promote the transport of Zn^(2+)ions.They also expedite the desolvation of hydrated Zn^(2+)ions,leading to enhanced deposition kinetics.Additionally,these functional groups confine interfacial planar diffusion and promote preferential deposition along the(002)plane of Zn,enabling a smooth surface texture of the Zn anode.This multifaceted regulation successfully achieves the suppression of Zn dendrites and side reactions,thereby enhancing the electrochemical reversibility and service life during plating/stripping cycles.Therefore,such an electrolyte demonstrates a high average Coulombic efficiency of 97.7%for 500 cycles in the Zn‖Cu cell and exceptional cyclability with a duration of 480 h at 1 mA cm^(-2)/1 mA h cm^(-2)in the Zn‖Zn cell.Beyond that,the Zn-ion hybrid micro-capacitor employing PACXHE exhibits satisfactory cycling stability,energy density,and practicality for energy storage in flexible,intelligent electronics.The present polyanionic-based hydrogel strategy and the development of PACXHE represent significant advancements in the design of hydrogel electrolytes,paving the way for a more sustainable and efficient future in the energy storage field.

文摘Highly ordered and uniformly porous structure of conductive foams is a vital issue for various functional purposes such as piezoresistive sensing and electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding. With the aids of Kevlar polyanionic chains, thermoplastic polyurethane(TPU) foams reinforced by aramid nanofibers(ANF) with adjustable pore-size distribution were successfully obtained via a nonsolvent-induced phase separation. In this regard, the most outstanding result is the in situ formation of ANF in TPU foams after protonation of Kevlar polyanion during the NIPS process. Furthermore, in situ growth of copper nanoparticles(Cu NPs) on TPU/ANF foams was performed according to the electroless deposition by using the tiny amount of pre-blended Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene as reducing agents. Particularly, the existence of Cu NPs layers significantly promoted the storage modulus in 2,932% increments, and the well-designed TPU/ANF/Ti_(3)C_(2)T_(x) MXene(PAM-Cu) composite foams showed distinguished compressive cycle stability. Taking virtues of the highly ordered and elastic porous architectures, the PAM-Cu foams were utilized as piezoresistive sensor exhibiting board compressive interval of 0–344.5 kPa(50% strain) with good sensitivity at 0.46 kPa^(-1). Meanwhile,the PAM-Cu foams displayed remarkable EMI shielding effectiveness at 79.09 dB in X band. This work provides an ideal strategy to fabricate highly ordered TPU foams with outstanding elastic recovery and excellent EMI shielding performance, which can be used as a promising candidate in integration of satisfactory piezoresistive sensor and EMI shielding applications for human–machine interfaces.

文摘Doping modification of electrode materials is a sought-after strategy to improve their electrochemical performance in the secondary batteries field. Herein,polyanion（BO3）^3-doped Li3V2（PO4）3 cathode materials were successfully synthesized via a wet coordination method. The effects of（BO3）^3- doping content on crystal structure, morphology and electrochemical performance were explored by X-ray diffraction（XRD）, scanning electron microscopy（SEM）, cyclic voltammetry（CV） and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy（EIS）. All the asprepared samples have the same monoclinic structure;among them, Li3V2（PO4）（2.75）（BO3）（0.15） sample has relatively uniform and optimized particle size. In addition, this sample has the highest discharge capacity and the best cycling stability, with an initial discharge capacity of 120.4mAh·g^-1, and after 30 cycles at a rate of 0.1C, the discharge capacity still remains 119.3 mAh·g^-1. It is confirmed that moderate polyanion（BO3）^3- doping can rearrange the electronic structure of the bulk Li3V2（PO4）3,lower the charge transfer resistance and further improve the electrochemical behaviors.
文摘The optimized geometries at the RHF/6-311++G** level, the relatively stable energy at the MPW1PW91/6-311++G** level and the structural characters of anions have been acquired, indicating the stability is related to the chemical bonding of μ2?P atoms and the distri- bution of negative charges. The configurations of cage units P8 4- and P9 5- are stable due to the less torsion, but their ES values are relatively higher than that of P7 3- with more μ2?P atoms and the isolated stability is lower than that of P7 . They potentially play an important role as intermediate 3- in chemical reaction of producing complicated polyphosphides. Based on the related electronic properties, a stable polyanion must have low valence electron concentration, no (μ2?P)?(μ2?P) bond and a little dispersive charge. The earmark IR frequencies of cage units have been assigned to the vibration models in the end.
文摘In this research, the absorbance and luminescence response of two osmium(II) phenathrane (phen) carbonyl complexes to various DNA, heparin and i-carrageenan polyanions were studied. The [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)]<sup>2+</sup> complexes with L either a 4-phenyl pyridine (4-phpy) or phenyl imidazole (phimd) group exhibit moderate luminescent intensity in the visible region, their intensities are highly altered by the addition of DNA and other polyanion samples. These luminescent responses to polyanions were also compared with the [Ru(phen)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> complex. In ethanol solution, the presence of polyanions significantly enhanced the luminescent emission intensity of [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)]<sup>2+</sup> complexes with a blue shift. While the polyanions all showed emission enhancement on the highly lumi-nescent [Ru(phen)<sub>3</sub>]<sup>2+</sup> complex in ethanol solution with a red spectra shift. The [Os(phen)<sub>2</sub>CO(L)] <sup>2+</sup> with (phimd) ligand has the lowest emission in ethanol solution, its intensity can be enhanced up to 11 times in the presence of DNA polyanions. This enhancement for all the complexes in ethanol is mainly due to their electrostatic interaction with the anion sites and with some degree of ligand intercalation into the polyanion hydrophobic structure which reduced the solvent quenching of the complexes. The blue shift of the (4-phpy) and particularly (phimd) Os(II)CO complexes indicate an insertion of the (4-phpy) or (phimd) group into the polymer chains. The two new Os(II)CO complexes has great potential to be used as luminescence sensors for DNA and polyanion detection in the low micro molar range with high sensitivity.
文摘Polyanion-based materials are considered one of the most attractive and promising cathode materials for lithiumion batteries(LIBs)due to their good stability,safety,cost-effectiveness,suitable voltages,and minimal environmental impact.However,these materials suffer from poor rate capability and low-temperature performance owing to limited electronic and ionic conductivity,which restricts their practical applicability.Recent developments,such as coating material particles with carbon or a conductive polymer,crystal deformation through the doping of foreign metal ions,and the production of nanostructured materials,have significantly enhanced the electrochemical performances of these materials.The successful applications of polyanion-based materials,especially in lithium-ion batteries,have been extensively reported.This comprehensive review discusses the current progress in crystal deformation in polyanion-based cathode materials,including phosphates,fluorophosphates,pyrophosphates,borates,silicates,sulfates,fluorosilicates,and oxalates.Therefore,this review provides detailed discussions on their synthesis strategies,electrochemical performance,and the doping of various ions.
