Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries are considered as very promising energy storage systems due to their higher theoretical performance and lower active material cost. However, the notorious shuttle effect and lithium dendrite growth have severely restricted the industrial production of Li–S batteries. In this study, we used polyethylene oxide (PEO) as the matrix and added multifunctional nanofillers (nano In 2 O 3 ) to effectively inhibit the shuttle effect caused by the dissolution of lithium polysulphides (LiPSs) in Li–S batteries. As a multifunctional filler, nano-In 2 O 3 not only improves the ionic conductivity of the PEO electrolyte, but also forms a Li–In alloy layer in situ at the polymer/anode interface, which can cause the rapid diffusion of lithium ions and prevent the side reactions between lithium metal anode and the electrolyte. Achieving the effect of stabilizing the lithium metal anode and suppressing the shuttle effect. Multiple problems in the system are solved by introducing a single component with multiple functions. The symmetrical lithium battery based on the PEO/LiTFSI/In 2 O 3 solid polymer electrolyte (PEO/LiTFSI/In 2 O 3 SPE) has higher cycle stability (over 1200 h) because it is more stable to the lithium metal anode. The Li–S full battery also exhibits excellent electrochemical performance. After 500 cycles at 1C, its capacity can be maintained at 570 mAh g −1 , the capacity decay rate is 0.038%. The coulombic efficiency (CE) during the cycle is also close 100%.

The electrostatic energy storage performance of polymer dielectrics at high temperature and high electric field can be significantly improved by the incorporation of wide-bandgap, nano-sized particles. It is traditionally believed that the embedded nanoparticles can scatter the hot charges and lead to charge trapping in the interfacial region , which suppress the conduction loss and promote the energy storage performance. In this work, the nano-sized γ-Al 2 O 3 with cubic defect spinel structure and nano-sized α-Al 2 O 3 with a wider bandgap are introduced into a heat-resistant dielectric polymer, respectively, to form two different nanocomposites . The field-dependent energy storage performance, electrical conductivity , and breakdown strength of the polymer nanocomposites at high temperatures, as well as the thermally stimulated depolarization current , are investigated. The results indicate that the intrinsic deep traps introduced by γ-Al 2 O 3 with cubic defect spinel structure are a more critical factor in improving the energy storage performance of the polymer-based composites. We anticipate that our findings reported in this work may help to better guide the selection of nanofillers for high-temperature dielectric polymer nanocomposites.

Sulfide solid state electrolytes capture much attention owing to their high conductivity and decent mechanical property. Nevertheless, the moisture instability and poor interfacial compatibility against lithium metal anode remain challenging and hinder the practical application. Herein, we report a novel indium (In) doping strategy based on the hard-soft-acid-base theory to tackle these issues. Optimized Li 7 P 2.9 S 10.9 In 0.1 electrolyte exhibits a high ionic conductivity of 4.1 × 10 −3 S cm −1 and achieves an enhanced interfacial compatibility. Importantly, as In partially replaces the phosphorus (P), the amount of released hydrogen sulfide can be significantly decreased and the air stability is improved. The all-solid-state battery assembled with the Li 7 P 2.9 S 10.9 In 0.1 electrolyte demonstrates a high discharge capacity and a good cycling stability under a high current density of 1.0 C. This work provides a practical and effective method to design sulfide-based solid-state electrolyte with high ionic conductivity and enhanced air stability for all-solid-state battery applications.

The effects of Mo doping into the B-site of La 0.3 Sr 0.7 TiO 3-δ perovskite on its ionic conductivity and catalytic activity as an anode material of solid oxide fuel cells have been investigated. The partial substitution of Ti by Mo reduces the bond energy between metal and oxygen ions in the perovskite. The concentration of Mo 5+ /Mo 6+ redox couples increases with the rise of the content of Mo, while the oxygen ionic conductivity decreases simultaneously. The doping of Mo significantly reduces the anodic polarization resistance and improves the performance of the single cell. The cell with La 0.3 Sr 0.7 Ti 0.97 Mo 0.03 O 3-δ anode and La 0.8 Sr 0.2 Ga 0.8 Mg 0.2 O 3-δ electrolyte exhibits a maximum power density of 135 mW cm −2 at 850 °C with hydrogen as fuel.

Soy protein isolate (SPI) is one of the most abundant plant proteins in nature. Enormous studies have been carried out on SPI-based materials, however, the application for energy storage devices is still limited due to its fiddly film forming process and lack of electrochemical performance. Herein, we presented a SPI-based polymer electrolyte by grafting modification with the hydrophilic functional monomer acrylamide (AM). The optimized gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) exhibited an excellent ionic conductivity up to 5.10 mS cm −1 , which was greatly higher than gel polymer electrolyte based on original pure SPI (1.84 mS cm −1 ). More significantly, supercapacitors constructed by grafting-modified SPI delivered a specific capacitance of 141.74 F g −1 at 1.0 A g −1 and exhibited high capacitance retention of 95% after 8000 charge−discharge cycles. Beyond that, redox-active polymer electrolyte based on grafting-modified SPI combining with KI enormously improved the energy density of supercapacitor up to 27.52 Wh kg −1 at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 . This work provided a novel and facile strategy to obtain a high-performance SPI-based polymer electrolyte and laid an experimental foundation for the high-value application of SPI in the field of energy storage devices.

A nano-carbon composite, consisting of a graphene aerogel-carbon nanotube (CNT) film, is constructed by coating a strong and flexible CNT film onto the surface of a porous graphene aerogel core. The prepared gradient composite, ultralight and strong, can carry objects more than 15,000 times its own weight, exhibiting impressive compression resistance. Compared to the original graphene aerogel , the composite exhibits 8–9-fold increased values in its elastic modulus and compressive strength at a strain of 20% and an approximately 10-fold increase in electrical conductivities in the axial direction . In addition, the elastic recovery ability after compressive deformation and the ability to preserve liquid are also improved.

A simple glass/PDMS microfluidic chip for on-line sample pretreatment and contactless conductivity detection, which consisted of a 0.17 mm-thick glass cover and a PDMS substrate embedded with an SPE monolithic column, was presented in this paper. Using this integrated microchip system, sample extraction, injection, separation and detection were automatically performed in sequence. A sample of auramine O was concentrated by molecularly imprinted SPE (MISPE), eluted to sample reservoir, and injected by electromigration into separation channel for electrophoresis separation and contactless conductivity detection, with the calculated detection limit (S/N = 3) being 2.5 μg mL − 1 . The monolithic column was utilized to quantitatively extract auramine O , yielding an on-line enrichment factor of about 12. The microchip system is reliable and applicable to the analysis of auramine O in food sample.

Poor room-temperature ionic conductivity and lithium dendrite formation are the main issues of solid electrolytes. In this work, rod-shaped alumina incorporation and graphite coating were simultaneously applied to poly (propylene carbonate) (PPC)-based polymer solid electrolytes (Wang et al., 2018). The obtained alumina modified solid electrolyte membrane (Al-SE) achieves a high ionic conductivity of 3.48 × 10 −4 S/cm at room temperature with a wide electrochemical window of 4.6 V. The assembled NCM622/Al-SE/Li solid-state battery exhibits initial discharge capacities of 198.2 mAh/g and 177.5 mAh/g at the current density of 0.1 C and 0.5 C, with the remaining capacities of 165.8 mAh/g and 161.3 mAh/g after 100 cycles respectively. The rod-shaped structure of Al 2 O 3 provides fast transport channels for lithium ions and its Lewis acidity promotes the dissociation of lithium salts and release of free lithium ions. The lithiophilic Al 2 O 3 and Graphite form intimate contact with metallic Li and create fast Li + conductive layers of Li-Al-O layer and LiC 6 layer, thus facilitating the uniform deposition of Li and inhibiting Li dendrite formation during long-term cycling. This kind of composite Al-SE is expected to provide a promising alternative for practical application in solid electrolytes.

Three types of inorganic electrolytes [Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 (LGPS), 75Li 2 S·24P 2 S 5 ·1P 2 O 5 (LPOS), Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP)] with different particle sizes and electrochemical properties are selected as active fillers incorporated into poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) matrix to fabricate hybrid solid electrolytes. The optimum composition of each filler is found in consideration of ionic conductivity. Their electrochemical characteristics are investigated. The optimal conductivities are 1.60 × 10 −5 , 1.18 × 10 −5 , and 2.12 × 10 −5 S cm −1 at room temperature for PEO-1%LGPS, PEO-1%LPOS, and PEO-20%LAGP, respectively. The electrochemical stability windows of these hybrid solid electrolytes are all above 5 V (vs. Li + /Li). The results show that these fillers have positive effects on the ionic conductivity, lithium ion transference number, and electrochemical stability. The relationship between the type of filler and electrochemical properties has been investigated. All-solid-state cells LiFePO 4 /Li are fabricated and present fascinating electrochemical performance with high capacity retention and good cycling stability. This work provides promising electrolytes prepared by a simple method.

The mixed surfactants of dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and 1-dodecyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (C 12 mimBr) in aqueous solutions were studied by measurement of electrical conductivity and isothermal titration microcalorimetry (ITC). The critical micelle concentrations (cmc) and the degree of dissociations of counter ions were determined for this system at various surfactant compositions, and the thermodynamic properties of micellization were evaluated. A one-parameter Margules equation was used to fit the cmc values to calculate the mole fraction, the activity coefficients of two surfactant components and the excess properties in mixed micelles.

Sulfide solid electrolytes have attracted wide attention due to their high ionic conductivity . Li 6 PS 5 Cl is one of the most promising electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium batteries with high-energy-density. It is reported that the disordered arrangement of Cl - in the aragonite structure has a significant effect on the conductivity of Li 6 PS 5 Cl. In this work, the disorder of anion sites is modestly regulated by adjusting the ratio of S and Cl in Li 6−x PS 5−x Cl 1+x electrolyte. In addition, to verify the commonality of this strategy, Li 5.6 PS 4.6 Cl 1.4 is prepared using self-made Li 2 S, and similar results are obtained. On this basis, the density of Li 5.6 PS 4.6 Cl 1.4 electrolyte sheet is improved by hot-pressing, which can successfully inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites . As expected, the ionic conductivity of the sulfide electrolyte and the electrochemical performance of the ASSLBs are greatly improved. A highest ionic conductivity of 8.2 × 10 −3 S cm −1 of Li 5.6 PS 4.6 Cl 1.4 is obtained at room temperature. A high capacity retention of 99.99 % is maintained for NCM811 @Li 2 O//Li 5.6 PS 4.6 Cl 1.4 //Li-In system after 400 cycles at 1 C with ultra-high cathode loading of 35.6 mg cm −2 . Besides, the cost of sulfide electrolytes can be reduced as the decreased usage of Li 2 S. This work proposes a novel synthesis method of low-cost and high-performance Li 6−x PS 5−x Cl 1+x electrolytes.
