Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) using solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) can improve safety and energy density comparable with the liquid electrolytes (LE)-based counterparts. Especially, employing garnet-type SSEs to prepare solid-state LIBs are promising to achieve high-energy cells. However, the unbending and brittle issues of the inorganic SSE films are not suitable to fabricate flexible and stretchable energy storage devices. Here, We find that introducing specific polymer (30 wt%) into Li 6.75 La 3 Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 (LLZTO) can strongly increase the strength of the composite polymer-in-inorganic electrolyte (CIE) film. Both in-situ and ex-situ characterizations demonstrate that CIE delivers an excellent ability to suppress the growth of Li dendrites due to the close packing of LLZTO and effective filled grain boundaries and voids inside the CIE film by the polymer. The CIE inherits impressive electrochemical performance from LLZTO. As a result, the assembled LiFePO 4 (LFP)/CIE/Li cell delivers better cell performance than LFP/LE-separator/Li cell at ambient temperature (AT). The assembled high-voltage cathode (Li 1.2 Mn 0.6 Ni 0.2 O 2 , 4.8 V)/CIE/Li cell also displays an excellent cell performance at AT. The present study offers new insights into exploring of flexible polymer-in-ceramic electrolytes for high-voltage LIBs with improved safety and energy density .

The electro-deoxidation of MgO does not proceed efficiently due to the electrical insulation properties of MgO and large molar volume of metallic magnesium. In this experiment, an attempt was done to prepare Mg-Zr alloy from their oxides using the method of electro-deoxidation. The electrochemical mechanism of the deoxidation process of MgO, ZrO 2 and MgO-ZrO 2 composite was studied through cyclic voltammetry using metallic cavity electrode (MCE). There was an intermediate phase (Zr 3 O) in the reduction process of ZrO 2 . The electro-deoxidation of MgO occurred for MgO-ZrO 2 composite in CaCl 2 -NaCl molten salt. Moreover, the electro-deoxidation of MgO was promoted by the addition of polyvinyl butyral (PVB). The formation of metal phase Mg was confirmed by XRD, EDS, Raman spectroscopy, and inductively-coupled plasma spectroscopy. The electro-deoxidation products showed significant differences with the concentration of PVB and the ratio between MgO and ZrO 2 . The electro-deoxidation of MgO and ZrO 2 was favorable when the PVB concentration was 5.0% (wt.%). Pure metal phase of Mg-Zr alloys was formed when the molar ratio of MgO and ZrO 2 was 1:2. The atomic fraction of Mg in the electrolytic product was ca. 28.0 mol.%. This work shows that MgO could be directly electro-deoxidized to Mg without the formation of intermediate phase oxide.

Li 6.4 La 3 Zr 1.4 Ta 0.6 O 12 (LLZTO) solid garnet-type electrolyte has been widely reported due to its outstanding safety and electrochemical stability. However, the inherent rigidity and brittleness of LLZTO lead to poor contact with anode/cathode and the operation failure of full cells. Herein, the dual-interlayers are constructed as the fast interfacial ion-migration channel by using Ti 3 C 2 T x (MXene, T x is –O, –OH, –F) with trace ionic liquid (IL), which promote the intimate contact between LLZTO and anode/cathode and suppress Li-dendrites growth. Notably, IL can wet the cathode to promote intimate interface contact and be decomposed into some inorganic compounds (such as Li 3 N, LiF, and Li 2 S x ), resulting in reduced interfacial resistance and fast Li-ion transportation. Consequently, in the prepared Li-symmetric cell, the interfacial resistance on the anode side plunges to 33.1 Ω cm −2 , and stably maintains over 1000 h without short circuit at 0.05 mA cm −2 . The full cell of Li|LiFePO 4 delivers a high initial capacity of 158.52 mA h g −1 and outstanding retention of 90.18% after 100 cycles at 60 °C and 0.2 C. Our work provides an efficient strategy to design dual-interlayers between LLZTO and anode/cathode for the interfacial modification to enhance the performance of solid garnet batteries.

In this paper, explain a new relationships between Bi 3+ content, the phase crystal, microstructure and conductivity for Sm and Bi co-doped Ce 0.8− x Sm 0.2 Bi x O 1.9−1/2 x ( x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2) electrolytes prepared by co-precipitation method. The XRD patterns showed that this compounds exhibit a fluorite-type cubic structure after the samples calcined at 700 °C for 4 h and the cell volumes of increased when the Bi content increased. In addition, for the samples sintered at 1400 °C for 4 h, the Bi doping improves the relative density, the grain size and the average thermal expansion coefficient (TEC). More in details, the relative density and TEC increase with the Bi content. Form the AC impedance spectroscopy measurements, the conductivity of the sintered samples is found to improve with the increasing of Bi content (for x ≤ 0.15), which is ascribed to the increasing of the number of oxygen ion vacancies and the increase in the unit cell volume. However, the conductivity decreases when the Bi content is further increased (0.15 < x ≤ 0.2), which is ascribed the reduction of the number of free oxygen vacancies. The highest conductivity at 800 °C is 5.6 × 10 −2 S/cm and the activation energy is 0.83 eV for Ce 0.65 Sm 0.2 Bi 0.15 O 1.825 , indicating that this would be a promising electrolyte for the intermediate temperature-solid oxide fuel cell applications.

In this work, we co-doped barium (Ba) and zirconium (Zr) in a lithium garnet oxide , to improve its electrochemical properties . In the doping range of y = 0–1.0, the Li 6+y La 3−y Ba y NbZrO 12 (LLBNZO) oxides maintain a cubic crystal structure. A secondary phase of BaZrO 3 emerges when y ≥ 0.75. The ionic conductivity of the developed garnet oxides first increases with Ba-doping in the low doping range and then decreases in the high doping range. It reaches the maximum value in Li 6.5 La 2.5 Ba 0.5 NbZrO 12 when y = 0.5. Cyclic voltammetry shows that the garnet oxides have a wide electrochemical voltage window up to 6 V. The constant-current polarization results on the symmetric cells assembled from Li 6.5 La 2.5 Ba 0.5 NbZrO 12 reveal that this garnet oxide is chemically stable against metallic lithium and has stable cycling performance.

One of the major obstacles to the application of potassium-ion batteries in large-scale energy storage is the lack of safe and effective electrolytes. KNH 2 , a new potassium-ion solid electrolyte has been developed in this study. Its ionic conductivity reaches 4.84 × 10 −5 S cm −1 at 150 °C and can reach 3.56 × 10 −4 S cm −1 after mechanochemical treatment. The result from electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurement shows that the increment of ionic conductivity is dependent on the concentration of nitrogen defects in the KNH 2 electrolyte. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that adopts inorganic amide as an electrolyte for potassium-ion battery and initiates the search for a new amide-based solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state potassium-ion battery.

Polyelectrolyte-enhanced ultrafiltration was investigated for rhenium(VII) recovery from aqueous solutions by using polyquaternium-6 (PQ6) as a complexing agent. The effects of the operating parameters on the permeate flux ( J ) and the rhenium rejection coefficient ( R ) were studied. In the process of concentration, J declines slowly and R is about 1. The concentrated solution was used for the decomplexation. It takes 10 min to achieve the decomplexation equilibrium at a chloride ion concentration of 100 mg L –1 . The decomplexation percentage reaches 45.6 %. In the diafiltration process, rhenium is extracted effectively, and the purification of the regenerated PQ6 is satisfactory. The regenerated PQ6 was used to bind rhenium(VII). The binding capacity of the regenerated PQ6 is close to that of fresh PQ6.

The hydrolyzed peach gum polysaccharide (HPGP) prepared at acidic condition is investigated as an anionic polyelectrolyte for the first time. A hydrolysis mechanism is proposed by monitoring the hydrolysis efficiency and morphological change of crude peach gum, and the intrinsic viscosity of resulted HPGP as a function of hydrolysis time. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and ζ-potential measurements reveal that HPGP with multiple carboxylic groups is negatively charged in water in the pH range 3–11. The HPGP exhibits remarkable pH and ionic strength responsiveness, as proven by dynamic light scattering (DLS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements. Moreover, the layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly experiments further confirmed that the HPGP can be utilized as an anionic polyelectrolyte . Considering the facile availability, favorable compatibility and intriguing functionality of HPGP, this study opens up enormous opportunities for the large-scale utilization of peach gum resource.

Solid-state fluoride-ion batteries (FIBs) circumvent multiple formidable bottlenecks of lithium-ion batteries, but their overall performance remains inferior due to the absence of appropriate solid electrolytes. Presently the conductivity of most solid electrolytes for FIBs is too low to enable room-temperature cycling, while the few sufficiently conductive ones only allow for very low discharge voltages because of the narrow electrochemical stability window (ESW). Here, high room-temperature conductivity and a decent ESW are simultaneously achieved by designing a solid electrolyte CsPb 0.9 K 0.1 F 2.9 . Its room-temperature conductivity is 1.23 × 10 −3 S cm −1 , comparable to the most conductive system reported so far (PbSnF 4 , 5.44 × 10 −4 –1.6 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ), but the ESW is several times broader. With these appealing characteristics simultaneously achieved in the solid electrolyte, a cell with much higher voltages than other room-temperature-operable solid-state FIBs in literature is successfully constructed, and stably cycled at 25 °C for 4581 h without considerable capacity fade.

An insightful study on the fundamental lithium storage behavior of all-solid-state lithium battery with a structure of LiNi 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 (NCA)/Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 /Li-In is carried out in this work. The relationship between electrochemical performances and particle size, surface impurities and defects of the NCA positive material is systematically investigated. It is found that a ball-milling technique can decrease the particle size and remove surface impurities of the NCA cathode while also give rise to surface defects which could be recovered by a post-annealing process. The results indicate that the interfacial resistance between the NCA and Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 is obviously decreased during the ball-milling followed by a post-annealing. Consequently, the discharge capacity of NCA in the NCA/Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 /Li-In solid-state battery is significantly enhanced, which exhibits a discharge capacity of 146 mAh g −1 at 25 °C.

The x LiBH 4 -Li 3 N ( x = 1, 2, 4) composites were investigated on their lithium ionic conductivities . They maintained the original phase structures of orthorhombic LiBH 4 and hexagonal β-Li 3 N during ball milling according to the analyses by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) tests showed that LiBH 4 -Li 3 N composites lift the lithium ionic conductivities from that of bulk LiBH 4 by nearly 100 times at low temperature. LiBH 4 -Li 3 N offers 1.06 × 10 − 5 S cm − 1 of conductivity while bulk LiBH 4 possesses only 2.05 × 10 − 7 S cm − 1 at 323 K. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests indicated that the voltage window of composites could attain 3 V, which is much more stable than Li 3 N (< 1 V). No thermodynamic incident appears in DSC curves except for the orthorhombic-hexagonal transition endothermic peak of LiBH 4 in the x LiBH 4 -Li 3 N composites. It confirms the phases stabilities of the x LiBH 4 -Li 3 N ( x = 1, 2, 4) composites before and after CV tests. In-situ solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) tests on LiBH 4 -Li 3 N illustrated that the high conductivity in low temperature should not come from high-temperature phase of LiBH 4 . Therefore, the enhancement of lithium ionic mobility of the composite might be attributed to both Li 3 N and the interfaces between small crystallites where transmission electron microscope (TEM) morphology showed the appearance of amorphous grain boundary.

One of the key efficient strategies to optimize the silicon micro-structure and to improve the lithium-storage electrochemical performance is to introduce the metallic phase into silicon matrix to realize the silicon-metal recombination as well as the nanocrystallization of silicon structure. The present research introduced metallic titanium to synthesis TiSi 2 /Si nanocomposites by the aid of electrolyzing SiO 2 /TiO 2 in molten salt. The reduced nanocomposites exhibited excellent lithiation stability with the initial discharging specific capacity of 2107 mA h/g and the first columbic efficiency of 89.96%. Particularly benefiting from the compositional TiSi 2 phase and the structural superiority of silicon nanowires surrounded by the alloyed nanoparticles , the as-obtained anode also delivered a high rate capacity. The major objective of this study is to establish the technology for molten salt electrolytic preparation of TiSi 2 /Si nanocomposites for lithium-ion batteries and further to offer solutions for modifying the silicon anode materials .
