In this paper, LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon composite as anode for aqueous lithium ion battery has been successfully synthesized by in-situ carbon coating method using oxalic acid and glucose as double carbon sources. XRD results confirm the rhombohedral NASICON-type LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 structure of the as-prepared composite. The LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon composite using double carbon sources (LTP-OG-10) disperses well, and the coated carbon layer has the appropriate thickness of 3–7 nm, which result in proper balance of the good electrical conductivity and the fast kinetics of diffusion of lithium ions . LTP-OG-10 exhibits better electrochemical performance compared with those using oxalic acid (LTP-O) or glucose (LTP-G) single carbon source. LTP-OG-10 anode delivers the discharge capacity of 112.5 mA h g −1 , 96.8 mA h g −1 , and 54.2 mA h g −1 at 0.2 C, 5 C and 20 C, respectively, much larger than that of LTP-O and LTP-G. Moreover, LTP-OG-10 demonstrated excellent cycling performance, with the capacity retention of 71.1% after 400 cycles at 0.2 C, 22.9% higher than that of LTP-G. The good electrochemical properties of LTP-OG-10 is mainly ascribed to the increase of defects, high-quality and appropriate thickness of carbon layer. Our study reveals that preparing LiTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @carbon composite using double carbon sources is an efficient approach to enhance its electrochemical properties.

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLBs) employing sulfide electrolyte and lithium (Li) anode have received increasing attention due to the intrinsic safety and high energy density. However, the thick electrolyte layer and lithium dendrites formed at the electrolyte/Li anode interface hinder the realization of high-performance ASSLBs . Herein, a novel membrane consisting of Li 6 PS 5 Cl (LPSCl), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and Li-salt (LiTFSI) was prepared as sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte (LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI) (LPSCl:PEO = 97:3 wt/wt; EO:Li = 8:1 mol/mol), which delivers high ionic conductivity (1.1 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ) and wide electrochemical window (4.9 V vs. Li + /Li) at 25 °C. In addition, an ex-situ artificial solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film enriched with LiF and Li 3 N was designed as a protective layer on Li anode (Li(SEI)) to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites. Benefiting from the synergy of sulfide-based composite solid electrolyte and ex-situ artificial SEI, cells of S-CNTs/LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) and Al 2 O 3 @LiNi 0.5 Co 0.3 Mn 0.2 O 2 /LPSCl-PEO3-LiTFSI/Li(SEI) are assembled and both exhibit high initial discharge capacity of 1221.1 mAh g −1 (135.8 mAh g −1 ) and enhanced cycling stability with 81.6% capacity retention over 200 cycles at 0.05 C (89.2% over 100 cycles at 0.1 C). This work provides a new insight into the synergy of composite solid electrolyte and artificial SEI for achieving high-performance ASSLBs .

In-situ TiC/Ti titanium matrix composites were successfully fabricated through a novel approach, utilizing the reaction of graphene and Ti mixture powders in spark plasma sintering . Microstructure, hardness and compressive properties of such composites were investigated. The layered graphene nanosheets as the carbon source were dispersed in the powders, and subsequently formed uniform TiC particles in Ti matrix during the rapid sintering. The resulting TiC particles exhibited the micro- and nano-sized equiaxial structures. Such composites possessed the significantly enhanced hardness and room-temperature compressive strength comparing with the as-cast and as-sintered pure Ti. The ultimate and yield compressive strengths of as-prepared 7.0 vol% TiC incorporated composite respectively reached up to 2.64 GPa and 1.93 GPa, beyond some advanced Ti materials reported to date. In-situ micro- and nano-sized TiC particles were believed to be beneficial to harden and strengthen Ti matrix. The relevant strengthening mechanisms of such composites were discussed.

Pd-based nanostructures with stepped facets possess potential applications in many fields, particularly in catalysis. Generally, crystal growth often only allows the formation of nanostructures with energetically non-stepped facets, so it is desirable to develop methods that can be used to prepare Pd-based nanostructures bounded by stepped facets. Herein, penta-fold twinned (PFT) Au@Pd nanobipyramids (NBs) with stepped {100} facets were synthesized through growing Pd on Au decahedral nanoparticles (NPs) in polyol. During the growth of Au@Pd NBs, Br− was a critical factor, because it has appropriate affinity for the Pd atom and adjusted the growth rate ratio along 〈110〉 and 〈100〉, resulting in the formation of Au@Pd NBs with stepped {100} facets. The product shape and size could be tailored by controlling the reaction conditions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging and scanning transmission electron microscopy EDS (STEM-EDS) were used to investigate the structure and growth of the Au@Pd NBs. A growth mechanism involving two stages was elucidated. In the first stage, the growth of Pd clearly occurred along both 〈110〉 and 〈100〉. In the second stage, the growth along 〈110〉 was faster than that along 〈100〉. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that the as-prepared Au@Pd NBs had high catalytic activity, compared with Pd nanocubes and Pd–Au–Pd segmental nanorods.

A rigid Pb(II)-imprinted polymers were synthesized by the combination of surface-imprinted method with sol–gel method using (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane as a functional monomer, Pb(II) and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide as template ions and tetraethoxysilane as cross-linker and were used as adsorbents for the removal of Pb(II). The effect of molar ratio of cross-linker to functional monomer on the morphology and adsorption performance has been evaluated. The effects of pH, initial concentration and adsorption time on the adsorption performance of Pb(II) on both sorbents were investigated. The maximum adsorption capacity calculated from Langmuir isotherm was 68.03 mg g -1 and 17.13 mg g -1 for Pb(II)-IIP and Pb(II)-NIP, respectively. Kinetics studies showed that the adsorption process obeyed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The selective adsorption coefficient of Pb(II)-IIP for Pb(II)/Ni(II), Pb(II)/Cd(II), Pb(II)/Hg(II) and Pb(II)/Co(II) are 117.5, 1.42, 4.9 and 30.24, respectively. The spent Pb(II)-IIP could be reused at least five cycles, demonstrating its good practicability.

The Mn dissolution issue in manganese-based materials (LMO) represents one of the most challenging barriers to further commercial development of electrochemical lithium extraction, which is an efficient and clean way of extracting Li from liquid resources. Here, by leveraging the advantages of composite materials, a novel combination of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and sulfonated ionic polymers (Nafion) is introduced to relieve the issues of electrode polarization and manganese dissolution, critical factors limiting the durability of LMO electrodes. By modifying with rGO to enhance electronic conductivity and surface characteristics, and capturing dissolved Mn 2+ through Nafion, the modified electrode showed significant improvement in cycling stability and lithium adsorption capacity. Experimental results confirm that this synergistic approach effectively mitigates polarization effects and controls disproportionation reactions, thereby enhancing the stability of the lithium extraction process, revealing a notable increase in electrode capacity retention from 79.04 % to 94.64 % after 30 cycles. Additionally, through DFT calculations and XPS analysis, the effectiveness of the manganese capture strategy is validated. This work presents an effective new strategy to extend the lifespan of manganese-based electrodes and enhance their adsorption performance.

Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 (M=Nb, Ta) oxides were synthesized by high-temperature solid-state reaction. The compounds adopt 6-layer perovskite-related structure (referred to as 6C) in P 3 ̅ m 1, analogous to Ba 6 Na 2 Nb 2 P 2 O 17 . The 6C structure consists of cubic ( c ) BaO 3 layers and pseudo-cubic ( c' ) oxygen-vacancy-ordered BaO 2 layers stacked according to a sequence of c'ccccc . Ordering of oxygen vacancies in oxygen-deficient c' -BaO 2 layers leads to two successive isolated tetrahedral layers, which stabilize an unusual +5 oxidation state for Mn cations in the tetrahedral sites. In Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 , these two Mn 5+ O 4 layers are sandwiched by two single octahedral NaO 6 layers that connected by two successive octahedral NbO 6 layers, forming alternative 2:1-ordered (Ba 3 NaM 2 O 9 ) - and (Ba 3 NaMn 2 O 8 ) + perovskite-like units along the stacking direction. The Mn 5+ O 4 tetrahedral units act as a turquoise chromophore in Ba 6 Na 2 M 2 Mn 2 O 17 , making these two compounds potential turquoise-coloring materials for the cool pigments .

Si/Cu/Zn ternary microspheres are prepared by a pulsed electrical discharging method in a scalable manner. Zn and partial Si within these microspheres can then be selectively removed by chemical etching to form Si/Cu nanowires. The Si/Cu (~62 atom% Si) nanowires show a high discharge capacity of 2092 mAh g −1 and a high capacity retention after 500 cycles at a current density of 200 mA g −1 . The excellent rate and cycling performance are attributed to the conductive Cu network and nanowire structure, which increases the electric conductivity of the electrode and accommodates the volumetric change of silicon during the charge/discharge process. Furthermore, the Si/Cu nanowire anode utilizes relatively cheap materials and flexible processing methods, costing approximately $0.3 g −1 . This work presents a novel method to prepare nanowire-like Si-based anode materials , which is promising to boost the yield of Si alloy NWs with low cost.

P2-Na0.6Li0.11Fe0.27−xMn0.62YxO2 (x = 0, 0.5%, 1%, and 2%) cathode materials were successfully prepared using a traditional solid-state method with ball milling-assisted modification. The effect of Y-doping on the crystal structure, grain size, morphology and sodium storage performance of Na0.6Li0.11Fe0.27Mn0.62O2 was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), galvanostatic charge–discharge cycling tests, cyclic voltammetry (CV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The results demonstrated that the ball-milling pre-treatment method could effectively reduce the grain size and mitigate the aggregation of Na0.6Li0.11Fe0.27Mn0.62O2. Additionally, reasonable Y-doping (x = 1%) significantly enhances the rate capability and cycling stability of Na0.6Li0.11Fe0.27Mn0.62O2via improving the Na+ diffusion kinetics and the reversibility of the oxygen redox reaction. These results indicate that Na0.6Li0.11Fe0.26Mn0.62Y0.01O2 is a promising candidate material for high-rate and long-life cathodes for Na-ion battery application.

Carbon resource recovery from toxic organic wastewater to reduce unnecessary energy loss and greenhouse gas emissions is rarely pursued. In the present study, a promising approach for formic acid (FA) recovery from EDTA wastewater was proposed by coupling ozonation and flow-electrode capacitive deionization (Ozo/FCDI). In the ozonation process, a FA productivity of 25% was obtained with the complete degradation of EDTA. The FA recovery from wastewater was compared under electrodialysis (i.e., without the use of flowable carbon electrodes, 0 wt%) and FCDI (i.e. using 5 wt% flowable carbon electrodes) processes and the results demonstrated the superiority of the FCDI process. After 390 min of operation, the accumulated FA concentration in the anode chamber of the FCDI system had increased to 633.6 mg/L with a low energy consumption of 8.0 kWh/kg FA, which was 1.8 times of the FA concentration in the electrodialysis (ED) process and nearly 6.4 times in the feed stream. These findings suggest the effective acquisition of high value-added FA in the Ozo/FCDI system; may provide new opportunities and challenges for the recovery of organic compounds.

Up conversion luminescent materials Sr 2 YTaO 6 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors were prepared by high temperature calcination . In view of the formation, temperature characteristics , and photoluminescence features of the sample, X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence were used. Under the excitation at 980 nm, the series of samples is significantly stimulated by Er 3+ up-conversion luminescence and Yb 3+ sensitization at 524, 550 and 659 nm. According to the diversity of temperature sensing performance from these three highest peaks, a dual-mode temperature sensor on account of fluorescence intensity ratio (thermally coupled level between 2 H 11/2 and 4 S 3/2 , and nonthermally coupled energy levels between 2 H 11/2 and 4 F 9/2 ) is achieved by using a single luminescent center. Moreover, the phosphor has strong thermal stability, which is helpful to improve the accuracy of temperature measurement. Under the temperature measurement of a dual-mode temperature sensor, it is calculated that the optimal absolute sensitivity S a of thermally coupled energy level is 0.78 × 10 −3 K −1 (473 K) and relative sensitivity S r is 1.32 %K −1 (293 K), and the maximum optimal absolute sensitivity S a of non-thermally coupled energy level is 1.02 × 10 −4 K −1 (473 K) and relative sensitivity S r is 0.58 %K −1 (293 K). All results imply that Sr 2 YTaO 6 : Er 3+ , Yb 3+ phosphors are promising materials for self-referenced optical temperature measurement.

A polyimide–MWCNT composite (PNP@CNT) synthesized from 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic-dianhydride (NTCDA) and phenylene diamine (PDA) was investigated as a novel anode for aqueous Na-ion batteries. This composite demonstrates a high reversible capacity of 149 mA h g−1 at quite a low potential of −0.65 V (vs. SCE), superior rate capability and long-term cycling stability. The feasibility of PNP@CNTs in aqueous Na-ion full batteries is also confirmed in conjunction with the Na0.44MnO2 cathode, possibly serving as a high performance aqueous Na host anode for large-scale electric energy storage applications.
