Among the germanium-based compounds, GeTe is a promising anode candidate that exhibits high theoretical capacity (856 mAh g–1 vs Li+/Li and 401 mAh g–1 vs Na+/Na) and low volume expansion during an ion intercalation/deintercalation process. Nevertheless, achieving good dispersion of metal-like GeTe in anode materials remains a significant challenge. Herein, hybrid GeTe/graphene (GeTe/G) is proposed as a highly efficient anode for LiBs and SiBs by facile ball milling. Pulverized GeTe is effectively anchored on peeled graphene sheets that can accelerate Li+ transport in electrodes as predicted by theoretical calculations and thus result in improved overall electrochemical performance. For instance, GeTe/G possesses a high reversible capacity of 478 mAh g–1 under 0.1 A g–1 in the 300th cycle. Moreover, by further cross-linking the GeTe/G using carbon nanotube (CNT) and carbon nanofiber pyrolysis from cotton cellulose, the as-prepared three-dimensional (3D) flexible anode possesses macropores that acted as positive channels favorably for ion transport. Remarkably, the as-prepared flexible 3D GeTe/G/CNT electrode with a thickness of 1050 μm exhibits a high reversible capacity of 451.4 mAh g–1 (4.38 mAh cm–2) vs Li+/Li and 372.5 mAh g-1 (2.08 mAh cm-2) vs Na+/Na, respectively, in the second cycle under 0.1 A g–1. These results shed some light on the direct application of 3D flexible carbon sponge electrodes in high-performance LiBs/SiBs.

The solubility equilibrium of Li+, Na+//Cl–, CO32– −H2O quaternary systems at 323.15 K and 348.15 K was studied via the isothermal solubility equilibrium method, and the complete phase diagrams were obtained including the properties of liquid density and pH. Solid species of LiCl·H2O, Li2CO3, NaCl, and Na2CO3·H2O are found in the quaternary system at 323.15 K and 348.15 K, and one double salt of Li2CO3·Na2CO3 is found at 348.15 K. The liquid phase of two invariant points and five univariant curves at 323.15 and three invariant points and seven univariant curves at 348.15 K in the quaternary system is determined. Li2CO3 covers the largest solid phase region and is hardly influenced by temperature; Li2CO3–NaCl is a stable salt pair, and its cosaturated solubility is the least at the diagonal line of Li2CO3–NaCl.

Improved power and cycle performances are eagerly required in intermediate-temperature sodium–metal halide (Na–MH) batteries. The existence of the low conductivity NiCl2 layer and the growth of the Ni and the NaCl particles limit the broader application of Na–NiCl2 battery. Herein, nickel–carbon composite nanofiber (NCCN) networks are synthesized by a multisolution electrospinning method to construct a novel three-dimensional cathode for Na–NiCl2 battery. The battery with the NCCN-based cathode shows significant improvement in rate and cycle performance at 190 °C. A capacity twice that of a conventional electrode after 100 cycles and 80% of the initial capacity after 400 cycles are observed at a current of 57 mA g–1. The NCCN-based cathode normally works more than 350 cycles without obvious degradation at a high current of 338 mA g–1, that is, a rate of 2C. Furthermore, in situ electrochemical impedance spectroscopy reveals faster electron and ion transport processes precisely on the charging and discharging processes of the NCCN-based cathode. It is found that the NCCNs can not only play the role of a continuous conductivity network but also limit the growth of grains. With the blocking effect of the carbon fibers, the volume expansions of Ni and NaCl grains are well restricted and their sizes were smaller than 500 nm and 7 μm after 50 cycles, respectively.

Phosphorus sulfide cage molecule based on P 4 S 3 was investigated for the first time as anode material for the storage of alkali metal ions (Li + , Na + , K + ). Such P 4 S 3 sample was obtained in a large scale by a simple heating reaction of low-cost rep P and S. X-ray diffraction refinement analysis indicates that P 4 S 3 sample possesses a defect rich molecule crystal structure with S/P atom ratio of 0.74. The P 4 S 3 anode delivered a high reversible capacity of 1266 mAh g −1 for lithium-ion batteries at 0.1 A g −1 and good cycling performance. Experimental results demonstrated that the P 4 S 3 anode undergoes a reversible Li-storage reaction of P 4 S 3 + 11 Li + + 11 e − ↔ 0.5 Li 4 P 2 S 6 + 3 Li 3 P during cycling. It also exhibited a high capacity of 1002 and 378 mAh g −1 at 0.1 A g −1 for Na + and K + storage, respectively. These properties suggest the promising application of P 4 S 3 anode in high energy batteries.

High-efficiency and far-red light phosphors based on Mn 4+ -doped inorganic luminescence materials are beneficial to plant cultivation. However, Mn 4+ -doped oxide phosphors have a common problem of low quantum efficiency. Alkali metal ion codoping can effectively improve the luminescence properties of Mn 4+ -activated oxide phosphors. Herein, a series of Sr 2 InSbO 6 :Mn 4+ , M (SISO:Mn 4+ , M) (M = Li + , Na + , and K + ) far-red-emitting phosphors codoped alkali metal ions were first synthesized. Density functional theory calculation indicated that SISO is a kind of indirect bandgap material with a bandgap of ∼1.60 eV. The SISO:Mn 4+ samples showed a far-red light at 698 nm upon 365 nm, which perfectly matched the absorption spectrum of the far-red-phytochrome (Pfr) of plants. The doping concentration of the SISO:Mn 4+ samples was optimized to be 0.006 mol. The concentration quenching mechanism was defined as dipole–dipole interaction by combining the Dexter theory and the Inokuti–Hirayama model. Optimizing the sintering temperature and codoped with alkali metal ions (Li + , Na + , and K + ) could improve the luminescent intensity of SISO:Mn 4+ . The optimum sintering temperature was 1300°C. The internal quantum efficiencies of SISO:0.006Mn 4+ and SISO:0.006Mn 4+ , 0.006Li + phosphors are 22.67% and 60.56%, respectively. SISO:Mn 4+ , Li + phosphors-based plant growth light-emitting diodes (LEDs) demonstrate excellent optical stability and long lifetime. Thus, these phosphors are promising candidates for plant cultivation LEDs.

This work unravels the chemical and structural properties of Fe 5 C 2 -ZnO catalysts decorated with sodium (Na) during CO 2 hydrogenation to linear α-olefins, determined by rate assessments and series of in-situ characterizations. Reaction network remains as a combination of reverse water-gas-shift (RWGS) and CO hydrogenation, but their relative contributions vary. The RWGS reaction is chemically equilibrated, thus CO 2 conversion is determined solely by the thermodynamic constraint. However, Na addition alleviates the formation rates of paraffins from the subsequent CO hydrogenation and reactions of olefins with hydrogen. Na additive does not alter the structures of Fe 5 C 2 -ZnO, but improves largely the stability of Fe 5 C 2 by preventing the phase oxidation during the reaction. Na modifies the surface properties of catalyst, thus facilitates reaction of CO* and H* and the C C bond formation. The dual role of Na leads more effective olefins turnovers and provides new insights to the design of novel catalysts for CO 2 utilization.

Taking into the consideration safety, environmental impact, and economic issue, the construction of aqueous batteries based on aqueous electrolyte has become an indispensable technical option for large-scale electrical energy storage. The narrow electrochemical window is the main problem of conventional aqueous electrolyte. Here, an economical room-temperature inorganic hydrated molten salt (RTMS) electrolyte with a large electrochemical stability window of 3.1 V is proposed. Compared with organic fluorinated molten salts, RTMS is composed of lithium nitrate hydrate and sodium nitrate with much lower cost. Based on the RTMS electrolyte, a hybrid Li/Na-ion full battery is fabricated from cobalt hexacyanoferrate cathode (NaCoHCF) and perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA) anode. The full cell with the RTMS electrolyte exhibits a fantastic performance with high capacity of 139 mAh g −1 at 1 C, 90 mAh g −1 at 20 C, and capacity retention of 94.7% over 500 cycles at 3 C. The excellent performances are contributed to the unique properties of RTMS with a large electrochemical window, solvated H 2 O free and high mobility of Li + , which exhibits excellent Li-ions insertion and extraction capacity of NaCoHCF. This RTMS cell provides a new economic choice for large-scale energy storage.

Ion-insertion capacitors show promise to bridge the gap between supercapacitors of high power densities and batteries of high energy densities. While research efforts have primarily focused on Li + -based capacitors (LICs), Na + -based capacitors (SICs) are theoretically cheaper and more sustainable. Owing to the larger size of Na + compared to Li + , finding high-rate anode materials for SICs has been challenging. Herein, an SIC anode architecture is reported consisting of TiO 2 nanoparticles anchored on a sheared-carbon nanotubes backbone (TiO 2 /SCNT). The SCNT architecture provides advantages over other carbon architectures commonly used, such as reduced graphene oxide and CNT. In a half-cell, the TiO 2 /SCNT electrode shows a capacity of 267 mAh g −1 at a 1 C charge/discharge rate and a capacity of 136 mAh g −1 at 10 C while maintaining 87% of initial capacity over 1000 cycles. When combined with activated carbon (AC) in a full cell, an energy density and power density of 54.9 Wh kg −1 and 1410 W kg −1 , respectively, are achieved while retaining a 90% capacity retention over 5000 cycles. The favorable rate capability, energy and power density, and durability of the electrode is attributed to the enhanced electronic and Na + conductivity of the TiO 2 /SCNT architecture.

The solubilities in the MCl–M2B4O7–H2O (M = Li, Na) systems at 323.15 K were studied with the isothermal solid–liquid equilibrium method. Both the phase diagrams in the above systems belong to the simple eutectic type. Combining the Pitzer binary parameters of LiCl and NaCl obtained from the literatures, the lacking Pitzer binary parameters of Li2B4O5(OH)4 and Na2B4O5(OH)4, Pitzer mixing parameters θCl–,B4O5(OH)42–, ψLi+,Cl–,B4O5(OH)42–, and ψNa+,Cl–,B4O5(OH)42–, and the solubility product constants of Li2B4O5(OH)4·H2O and Na2B4O5(OH)4·8H2O at 298.15 and 323.15 K were fitted with the experimental solubility data by the Pitzer model. The agreement between the experimental water activities and calculated results with parameters fitted with solubilities in the system LiCl–Li2B4O7–H2O at 298.15 K shows that the parameters fitted with solubilities are reliable. The comparison between the experimental and calculated solubilities of the two systems at 298.15 and 323.15 K shows that calculated solubility data are in agreement with 0.03 of experimental results in the two systems.

Na-X zeolite was successfully prepared from low aluminum coal fly ash (LACFA) via fusion-hydrothermal treatment. The influence of various synthesis parameters was investigated, including aluminum additives (AlCl 3 ·6H 2 O, Al(NO 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O, AlF 3 ·3H 2 O and NaAlO 2 ), dosages of NaAlO 2 , weight ratio of LACFA/NaOH, crystallization temperature and time. The results indicated that the addition of Al species played a key role in the synthesis process of purity Na-X zeolite, and the corresponding relative crystallinity of the obtained samples was in the order of Na-X zeolite (Al) ≫ Na-X zeolite (Cl) > Na-X zeolite (N) > Na-X zeolite (F) (Here, “Al”, “Cl”, “N” and “F” represent NaAlO 2 , AlCl 3 ·6H 2 O, Al(NO 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O and AlF 3 ·3H 2 O, respectively). And the optimal operating conditions were: the weight ratio of LACFA/NaOH = 0.83, short crystallization time 360 min, low crystallization temperature 90 °C and 0.038 mol NaAlO 2 . Additionally, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transforms Infrared (FT-IR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) were employed to determine the resultant samples. Based on the results of As(V) adsorption experiment, the experimental data was suitable fitted by Freundlich adsorption isotherm model, and the theoretical maximum adsorption capacity was 27.79 mg/g at pH = 2.14. The kinetics studies suggested that “surface reaction” was the rate-determining step of adsorption process, and the thermodynamics studies indicated that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. These results deemed that the LACFA was suitable for preparing Na-X zeolite (Al) , and the obtained Na-X zeolite (Al) was served as a promising adsorbent to remove As(V) from acid wastewater.

The commercial applications of rechargeable magnesium batteries (RMBs) are hindered by the slow diffusion kinetic of Mg 2+ ions in cathode materials. To overcome this problem, we design a new Na-Mg hybrid battery with the NaTi 2 (PO 4 ) 3 @Carbon (NTP@C) nanoparticles as a cathode material, the Mg metal as an anode and the Mg(TFSI) 2 + NaBH 4 - triglyme/1,2-Dimethoxyethane (DME) as a hybrid electrolyte. For the first time, the Mg(TFSI) 2 is applied as a Mg 2+ ions source in the chlorine-free Na-Mg hybrid electrolyte with NaBH 4 as both Na + ions source and moisture scavenger. The NTP@C/Mg hybrid battery shows excellent electrochemical performance. The corresponding average capacity decay after 1000 cycles is only 0.004% and 0.008% per cycle at 2 C and 10 C, respectively. Even at 20 C, about 60 mAh g −1 can be obtained after 26000 cycles. The impressive capacity retention of 93.7% and 90.2% can be obtained at 5 and 10 C, respectively. The excellent electrochemical performance of the hybrid battery confirms the feasibility using Mg(TFSI) 2 in the chlorine-free hybrid electrolyte for long term cycle. The developed NTP@C/Mg hybrid battery possesses the advantages of excellent electrochemical performances, good safety and low cost, making it promising for the commercial applications, especially for the large-scale energy storages.

The commercial Na-loaded low-silica X zeolite (Na-LSX) was used as adsorbent for the removal of organic chloride compound (5-chloro-2-methylaniline) from model jet fuel. The Na-LSX adsorbent was characterized by XRD, BET, FT-IR, SEM-EDS, and XRF, respectively. A series of experiments were carried out to investigate the adsorption performance of organic chloride onto Na-LSX zeolite by batch adsorption experiments. In the batch experiments, some key operational parameters, such as temperature, adsorption time, initial concentration of organic chloride in model jet sample as well as the dosage of adsorbent were investigated. Equilibrium isotherms were analyzed by using Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin and Dubinin–Radushkevich (D–R) adsorption models. The pseudo-first-order, the pseudo-second-order and intra-particle diffusion models were used to fit the kinetics data. The results revealed that Langmuir isotherm provided a better fit to the experimental data than other isotherms. And it was also found that the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation well. The thermodynamic analysis results indicated that the adsorption process was an endothermic, feasible and spontaneous process under the specified conditions. Above mentioned investigation results implied that the Na-LSX zeolite would be an effective adsorbent for adsorption removal of organic chloride from distillate of crude oil.
