Spinel Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 doped with F was synthesized via the solid-state reaction of anatase TiO 2 , Li 2 CO 3 , and NH 4 F. The structural characterization and electrochemical performance evaluation of the prepared materials were carried out utilizing X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, galvanostatic charge-discharge, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests. The lattice parameters of all samples were calculated using an internal standard and Rietveld refinement method. The results indicate that the F was successfully doped into the lattice structure of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 , and this process did not influence the crystal structure and superficial morphology. Moreover, the best-performing material, Li 4 Ti 5 O 11.9 F 0.1 delivers superior rate capacities of 165, 162.1, 160.0, 142.3, 125.1, and 99.2 mAh g −1 , at 0.2 C, 0.5 C, 1 C, 3 C, 5 C, and 10 C, respectively, which is higher than those of Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (150.0, 135.0, 123.5, 93.7, 76.4, and 56.8 mAh g −1 at the same C-rates), and the cycling retention is 82.7% after 150 cycles at 5 C. Meanwhile, the charge-transfer resistance (R ct ) of Li 4 Ti 5 O 11.9 F 0.1 (56.4 Ω) is lower than that of pure Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (80.6 Ω), and the lithium-ion diffusion coefficients (D Li + ) of Li 4 Ti 5 O 11.9 F 0.1 (2.505 × 10 −10 cm 2 s −1 ) is higher than that of pure Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (1.694 × 10 −10 cm 2 s −1 ).

Adsorptive separation membranes are widely utilized for the removal of toxic dyeing pollutants from dyeing wastewater. However, developing novel adsorption membranes with large adsorption capacities and enhanced adsorption performance for dyes in actual wastewater poses a significant challenge. This study focuses on the fabrication of crown ether-containing copolymer porous membrane (CRPM) and investigation of the adsorption performance of dyes from aqueous solutions. The morphology structure and pore size distribution revealed that the membrane was endowed with rich micropores and hierarchical porous structures. Three typical cationic dyes (MB, RhB, CV) and an anionic dye (MO) were selected to evaluate the adsorption behavior. The results of adsorption isotherms and kinetics demonstrated that the adsorption data could be well-fitted using the Freundlich and pseudo-first-order kinetic models, the thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption process of dyes on CRPM is a spontaneous endothermic reaction. The membrane exhibited excellent adsorption performance for cationic dyes, with RhB displaying a higher maximum adsorption capacity than previously reported porous membranes. Notably, dynamic adsorption-desorption filtration demonstrated a rapid removal efficiency, with RhB, MB, and CV achieving removal rates of 99.09%, 98.63%, and 99.14% respectively, after five cycles. The filtration volume of the CRPM membrane was 2.4-fold greater than that of a traditional PVDF membrane when applied to actual dyeing wastewater. DFT theoretical calculations were employed to elucidate the adsorption mechanism. These calculations confirmed the significant roles of electrostatic interactions, H-bonds and π–π interactions in facilitating the high-efficiency adsorption of cationic dyes. These findings highlight the potential of the crown ether-containing copolymer as a promising material for adsorption separation membranes in the treatment of dyeing wastewater.

The waste perfluoro-ion-exchange membranes (PFIEMs) in chlor-alkali industry were regenerated and used to the separation of dimethyl carbonate (DMC)/methanol (MeOH) mixtures by pervaporation process. The energy-dispersive spectrum (EDS) demonstrates that the impurities on the surfaces of waste PFIEMs can be effectively cleared by the regeneration process. The degree of swelling, sorption, and pervaporation properties of the regenerated PFIEMs with different counter ions were investigated. The results indicate that the counter ions of PFIEMs conspicuously influence the degree of swelling, sorption, and pervaporation properties for DMC/MeOH mixtures. The degree of swelling and solubility selectivity both decreases with the alkali metal counter ions in the sequence: Li + > Na + > K + > Cs + . The degree of swelling increases with MeOH concentration increasing in feed liquid. The pervaporation measurements illustrate that the permeation flux decreases and the separation factor increases with the rising in ion radius of counter ions. The increase of feed concentration (MeOH) and feed temperature is advantageous to improve permeation flux while at the cost of separation factor decreasing. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl.

Triblock copolymer polydopamine-polyacrylic-polyoxyethylene (PDA-PAA-PEO) with excellent performance as a binder for silicon anodes was synthesized. Its structure was confirmed by 1H-NMR, FTIR and UV-vis spectroscopy. Results of electrochemical measurements indicated that a silicon anode based on PDA-PAA-PEO binder exhibited excellent cycle performance with a reversible capacity of 1597 mA h g−1 after 200 cycles at a current density of 0.5 C, much better than that of an electrode based on a polyvinylidene-fluoride binder. Improvement of the cycle performance and reversible capacity for silicon anodes could be attributed to the strong adhesive and high ion conductivity of PDA-PAA-PEO.

Al 2 O 3 –ZrO 2 (3Y)–SiC ceramic composites were prepared by spark plasma sintering in vacuum under 40 MPa of uniaxial compression between 1300 °C and 1400 °C. The effect of nano-size SiC and sintering temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of ceramic composites were investigated. The results showed that SiC particles was uniformly distributed in the composite, mainly within the matrix grains. Sintering temperature and SiC particles caused the shape of alumina grains to be columnar. The flexural strength of 22.3 vol% Al 2 O 3 -57.7 vol% ZrO 2 -20 vol% SiC sintered at 1350 °C composites was 1081 MPa, fracture toughness was 15.18 MPa m 1/2 and hardness was 16.42 GPa. The addition of SiC particles leads to grain boundary strengthening, and the change of fracture mode and cracks deflection and bridging are considered to be the main reasons for the increase in material fracture toughness.

Residual ethanol was used as an activation agent to control the status of corn cellulose (CN cellulose) solution and thereby the morphology of CN cellulose fibers after electrospinning. A suitable amount of ethanol could combine with the CN cellulose chains to reduce their ionic absorbance, improving the migration ability of ions in the cellulose– N , N -dimethylacetamide (DMAc)/LiCl–ethanol system. As a result, the entanglement of the molecular chains of CN cellulose in solution was reduced. Excess ethanol reduced the migration ability of ions and enhanced the strong entanglement of CN cellulose in solution. By thus adjusting the status of the CN cellulose solution, the fiber morphology and diameter distribution after electrospinning could be controlled. Based on the experimental results, this approach represents an important and effective approach using ethanol as an activation and adjusting agent for CN cellulose to achieve formation of high-quality electrospun fibers.

LiNi 0.915 Co 0.075 Al 0.01 O 2 (NCA) with Zr(OH) 4 coating is demonstrated as high performance cathode material for lithium ion batteries (LIBs). The coated materials are synthesized via a simple dry coating method of NCA with Zr(OH) 4 powders, and then characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Experimental results show that amorphous Zr(OH) 4 powders have been successfully coated on the surface of spherical NCA particles, exhibiting improved electrochemical performance . 0.50 wt% Zr(OH) 4 coated NCA delivers a capacity of 197.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 154.3 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 78.1% at 1 C rate. In comparison, the pure NCA shows a capacity of 194.6 mAh/g at the first cycle and 142.5 mAh/g after 100 cycles with a capacity retention of 73.2% at 1 C rate. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results show that the coated material exhibits a lower resistance, indicating that the coating layer can efficiently suppress transition metals dissolution and decrease the side reactions at the surface between the electrode and electrolyte. Therefore, surface coating with amorphous Zr(OH) 4 is a simple and useful method to enhance the electrochemical performance of NCA-based materials for the cathode of LIBs.

SiO x is regarded as a promising anode material for the next-generation lithium-ion batteries with high energy density. However, the reduplicative volume changes during cycling cause the pulverizations of Si, leading to decreased utilization of active Si component and poor cycling performance. Herein, a facile and scalable Fe-Cr decorating strategy is reported to boost the lithium storage of SiO x anode. Our comprehensive characterizations indicate that there are strong interactions between Fe-Cr and SiO x during a facile ball milling process. After cycling, Fe-Cr nanoparticles are dispersed in the in-situ formed lithium silicates and Li 2 O matrix, which can maintain superior conductivity of lithium ion and electron for the active components through point-to-point connections. This unique structure boosts the electrochemical de-alloying process of the low-valent Li x Si (0 ≤ x ≤ 2), and increases effective utilization of the active Si component during cycling, resulting in improvement of reversible capacity and cycling stability. This bm SiO x -FeCr electrode can deliver high reversible specific capacity (1370 m Ah g −1 at 200 mA g −1 ), good rate capability (653.8 m Ah g −1 at 2000 mA g −1 ), and superior cycling stability. This work provides a promising route for improving the utilization of active Si component and the structural stability of SiO x -based anodes.

To improve the coulombic efficiency (CE) and cycle life of SnO2 anode in lithium ion batteries, SnO2–Cu–graphite composites with dual scale embedding structure are synthesized by ball milling. The SnO2–Cu composite, in which SnO2 nanoparticles with grain size less than 10 nm are uniformly dispersed in inactive nanocrystalline Cu matrix, is firstly obtained by milling the mixture of SnO2 and Cu nanopowders (molar ratio 1 : 2), and then further milling with graphite (C) to obtain SnO2–Cu–C composite with microsized graphite sheets as matrix of SnO2–Cu composite. The 50 h-milled SnO2–Cu composite exhibits higher initial CE (76.0 ± 1.5%) and subsequent CE than 50 h-milled SnO2. Furthermore, the SnO2–Cu–C composite anode is capable of retaining a maximum charge capacity of 450.8 mA h g−1 at 100 mA g−1 after 80 cycles with a capacity retention ratio of 74.4%, displaying superior cyclic stability to as-milled SnO2, SnO2–Cu and SnO2–C composites. The improved CE and cycleability are attributed to the unique dual scale embedding structure that offers good conductivity of electron and lithium ion as well as the nanostructure stability of active materials. This unique composite structure might be extended to other high-capacity anode materials, to achieve high performance lithium ion batteries.

Using NaF as the only Na precursor, fluorophosphate Na 2 FePO 4 F/C materials have been synthesized via the solid-state reaction. Na 2 FePO 4 F starts to form at 300 °C, becomes the sole crystalline form between 400 and 600 °C, and decomposes at 650 °C. Comparing with the theoretical capacity of 124 mAh g −1 , the sample prepared at 600 °C delivered a discharge capacity of 118 mAh g −1 . The outstanding electrochemical performance is believed to result from the good crystallization and high purity of the synthesized materials . The capacity retentions at 0.5 C and 2 C are 95.8% and 89.8%, respectively, of that at 0.05 C. Furthermore, a discharge capacity of 122 mAh g −1 is maintained under the cycling between 2.0 and 5.2 V vs. Li/Li + , indicating that the second Na + is not extracted from the Na 2 FePO 4 F lattice.

High-performance polymer electrolytes with the capability to self-heal mechanical damage can effectively enhance reliability, safety and service life of the batteries. Herein, a novel polymer electrolyte (PBPE) with excellent self-healing capacity and high ionic conductivity was developed. PBPE with polymer networks cross-linked by highly reversible imine bonds was fabricated by the Schiff-base reaction between poly(ethylene glycol) diamine and benzene-1,3,5-tricarbaldehyde. PBPE can quickly repair the cut damage spontaneously within 1 h at room temperature and recover its mechanical strength and electrochemical properties. The healed PBPE exhibits almost the same ionic conductivities and mechanical properties as the original PBPE shows. PBPE possesses the highest ionic conductivity (4.79 × 10 −3 S cm −1 at 30 °C) among the self-healing polymer electrolytes. PBPE can promote the generation of LiF-rich SEI and effectively suppress dendrite growth on Li metal anodes. LiFePO 4 (LFP) cells assembled with PBPE exhibit excellent rate capability (discharge capacity of 118.2 mAh g −1 at 5 C rate) and good cycling performance (capacity retention of 97.8% over 125 cycles). More importantly, the healed PBPE can completely recover its properties from damage in LFP cells and enable the cells to possess cycle performance identical to original PBPE.

In this paper, a receptor-mediated liposomal drug delivery system (DDS) was developed aiming to deliver cisplatin (cis-diaminedichloroplatinum(II); CDDP) targeting the liver. Acetyl glycyrrhetinic acid (AGA) was chosen as the hepatic targeting ligand and acetyl glycyrrhetinic acid-poly(ethylene glycol)-stearate (AGA-PEG-ST) was synthesized. Anionic 5-cholestene-3-beta-ol-3-hemisuccinate (CHO-HS) was also synthesized. The liposomal CDDPs were prepared by employing these functional moieties with phosphatidylcholine (PC) at various ratios. Meanwhile, methoxypolyethylene glycol-stearate (MPEG-ST) with an analogous structure but without AGA was also prepared as a control. The particle sizes of AGA modified liposomes ranged from 120 nm to 180 nm and the zeta potentials were located between −39.7 mV and −3.18 mV. The liposomes had encapsulation percentages of 51.5–61.7% and a loading capacity of 23.2–26.7% for CDDP. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations showed that the liposomes had spherical morphologies with homogeneous distribution. In vitro cytotoxicity of CDDP-loaded liposomes against HepG2 human liver cancer cells and A549 human lung epithelial carcinoma cells were evaluated by MTT assays. The results demonstrated that the introduction of AGA could enhance the cytotoxicity of liposomal CDDP against HepG2 cells but showed less significant impact on A549 cells. CLSM observation and FCM measurement further confirmed that AGA modified liposomes had a stronger affinity to HepG2 cells than that of liposomes without AGA. The tissue distribution of calcein in mice indicated that AGA modified liposomes resulted in higher accumulation in the liver than that of liposomes without the AGA ligand. These results demonstrated the promise of AGA decorated anionic liposomes for hepatic targeted delivery of cisplatin.
