To improve the pressure output ability of nanothermites to meet the needs in many fields, with the more volatile advantage of metal fluoride products (AlF3), this paper proposes the scheme of nanothermites (Al/CuF2). The energy release process of Al/CuF2 with different equivalent ratios under slow and fast heating rates has been studied. Under the slow heating rates, it was found that the equivalent ratio (Φ) has a significant influence on the energy release process. When Φ ≤ 1, the product is dominated by Cu. With the increase of the equivalent ratio, Al2Cu gradually appeared in the product, indicating that the increase of Al powder contributed to the enhancement of the alloy reaction. On the other hand, to further investigate the actual application of the Al/CuF2 mixture, combustion experiments in a closed container and in open air were carried out and compared with those of Al/CuO. In accordance with our design concept, AlCuF2 shows more excellent gas release ability. Al/CuF2 (Φ = 3) has the most excellent pressure output capacity (2.67 MPa), which increases by 107% compared to 1.29 MPa (Al/CuO). In addition, Al/CuF2 displays more excellent ignition performances in terms of shorter delay time and less ignition energy. Therefore, Al/CuF2 composite particles, as a novel nanothermite design, are expected to be widely used in the gas generator, micropropulsion, and other military and civilian fields.

Trifluoromethane is one of the most potent and stable greenhouse gases with global warming potential of 14,800 times higher than CO 2 (100-year time horizon). At present, it is destroyed by incineration or plasma at temperatures above 1200 K. For the first time, this work report that CHF 3 can be reverted to HCFC-22 via the intermolecular Cl/F exchange reaction of CHF 3 with CHCl 3 over AlF 3 catalyst under moderate conditions. As CHF 3 is produced during the manufacture of HCFC-22 via the fluorination of CHCl 3 in liquid phase, no additional feedstock and products are involved for the treatment of CHF 3 in this proposed process. At 593 K and atmospheric pressure, CHF 3 conversion levels of about 18%–20% are achieved and no significant deactivation is observed following time on stream of 100 h. In addition, the catalytic reaction mechanism is proposed. According to the experiments and DFT calculation, the intermolecular Cl/F exchange reaction of CHF 3 with CHCl 3 is mainly initiated by the breakage of C Cl. The present work provides a potential resource utilization route for the treatment of CHF 3 and other hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs).

Glass-forming region guided design gives a stable Zn(PO 3 ) 2 -AlF 3 -NaF fluorophosphate host (ΔT ≈ 166 °C) for fiber drawing. • Fluorine as a network modifier creates a low-phonon environment, boosting 1.5 μm emission. • Broadband 1.5 μm emission in bulk (47.2 nm) and fiber (ASE 1450–1650 nm, 0.187 dB/cm). Driven by the rapid growth of AI, 5G/6G, and chip-scale LiDAR, broadband 1.5 μm gain media with high efficiency and fiber compatibility are urgently needed. However, the structure-spectroscopy correlation governing the luminescence performance of Er 3+ /Yb 3+ co-doped glasses remains insufficiently understood. In this work, a Zn(PO 3 ) 2 -AlF 3 -NaF fluorophosphate glass composition (ZAFPN15) was selected based on a previously reported glass-forming region and characterized from atomic structure to fiber-level performance. Molecular dynamics simulations indicate that fluorine predominantly acts as a network modifier and that Er 3+ ions are predominantly coordinated by fluorine (Er–F coordination number ≈ 7.73). The local phonon energy around Er 3+ ions is estimated to be below 500 cm⁻ 1 , much lower than the nominal maximum phonon energy (∼1260 cm⁻ 1 ). The optimized glass exhibits a measured emission cross-section of 0.54 × 10⁻ 20 cm 2 at 1535 nm with an effective linewidth of 47.2 nm, together with a low inversion threshold (∼0.2). Fiber fabrication from this glass shows amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) spanning 1450–1650 nm with a propagation loss of 0.187 dB/cm at 1535 nm. These results demonstrate that this specific fluorophosphate glass composition can be processed into an active fiber with broadband near-infrared emission, and the structural data offer a possible explanation for the observed emission properties.

The demand for high energy density and safety has significantly promoted the development of all-solid-state lithium metal batteries. However, their practical use has been limited by the solid-solid interface and thermodynamic stability between lithium metal and solid electrolytes (SEs). Here, we constructed a hybrid interface via a thermal welding strategy to achieve stable cycling. Specifically, a dense and robust AlF 3 interface layer was constructed on the surface of the lithium metal via pressing and heat treatment. The lithiation products Li-Al alloy and LiF can effectively improve the interface contact and inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites. As a result, the critical current density (CCD) of the Li/Li symmetric cell significantly improved from 0.8 to 3.3 mA cm −2 , and the cycling life was dramatically increased to 6000 h at a high current density of 0.4 mA cm −2 . Moreover, the hybrid interface enabled stable cycling of both Li/Li symmetric and LiNi 0.6 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 O 2 /Li cells even at high current densities. The modified layer material had been diversified to SnF 2 , ZnF 2 , and MgF 2 , thus supporting the general concept of thermal activation strategy. Such a design can be extended to other solid-state devices for better functioning and extended cycle life.

The segregation of aluminum-silicon alloys directly impacts the mechanical and chemical properties of the alloys, Therefore, homogenization of alloys is of great significance for alloys. This study initially investigated the electrochemical behavior of aluminum (III) and silicon (IV) during the preparation of aluminum-silicon (Al-Si) alloys in NaF-AlF 3 -Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 molten salts through cyclic voltammetry and steady-state polarization. The results revealed that Al 2 O 3 underwent one-step reduction to Al, whereas SiO 2 underwent a two-step reduction process to Si. In addition, electrolysis experiments were carried out in a NaF-AlF 3 -Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 -5wt%CaF 2 -1wt%MgF 2 -2wt%LiF molten salt system with molecular ratio of 2.4. These experiments involved variations in current density, electrolysis time, Al 2 O 3 and SiO 2 additions. It is worth noting that under the conditions of current density of 0.7 A/cm 2 , electrolysis time of 2 h, and silica addition of 2 %, the reduction rate of silicon reached a maximum value of 72.57 %, at which time the silicon in the aluminum-silicon alloys showed a dendritic structure, which was uniformly distributed throughout the entire alloy, and the segregation of the alloy was effectively avoided.
