The SF 6 gas in gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) systems decomposes into SO 2 F 2 , SOF 2 , SO 2 , and H 2 S under abnormal conditions such as partial discharge. The detection of these decomposition gases with high sensitivity is essential for the safe operation of GIS devices. Herein, we report the synthesis of cerium oxide and multiwalled carbon nanotube composite (CeO 2 @MWCNTs). The CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy , X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis. The CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor provided a response value of 7.7 at 100 ppm of SO 2 F 2 at a low operating temperature (50 °C), and the response and recovery features of the CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor were recorded at 43 and 28 s, respectively. Moreover, the composite sensor exhibited excellent stability after two months. The developed CeO 2 @MWCNTs composite sensor can offer an exceptional platform for gas sensing applications in diverse fields.

The extended cyclability of LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O 4 (LNMO) electrodes featuring different water-based binders is here reported. LNMO electrodes with guar gum (GG) binders show a relatively stable cycle performance at 0 °C and room temperature. However, water-based binders exhibit higher capacity fade than those with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) binder at 50 °C. Although PVdF binder has a lower adhesion force than CMC and GG; PVdF-based electrodes exhibit better capacity retention than those with water-based binders at 50 °C over 1000 cycles. Finally, operando Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry (DEMS) experiments were carried out to analyze the evolution of volatile decomposition products formed over cycling at 1C and 30 °C of CMC-, GG- and PVdF-based LNMO electrodes. CO 2 and H 2 gas evolutions increase remarkably at both high temperatures and high potentials, i.e., ~ 4.7 V.

The aim of this work is to prepare a hydrophobic cathode equipped with quite a few cracks for gas transfer, which can prepare H 2 O 2 in the course of electro-Fenton process. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical digital microscope are used to characterize the morphology of electrode, and an electrochemical workstation (CHI660e) is used to carry out all electrochemical studies with a conventional three-electrode system. The results demonstrate that the porous electrode is conducive to gas transmission with these cracks which can avoid the formation of bubbles. Additionally, the reaction is almost not affected by the content of dissolved oxygen and the gas flow with this structure. Under the conditions of 300 mA/cm 2 (current density), the H 2 O 2 concentration is up to 14.4 mmol/L after 30 min electrolysis with current efficiency beyond 90%. Furthermore, the cathode is successfully applied to electro-Fenton process which reduced catalyst loading. The results indicate that total degradation of MO is observed at the first 10 min, and 81% of TOC can be removed when the dosage of catalyst is 0.4 mmol/L within 60 min.

In this work, the two-dimensional MoS 2 film was prepared by sulfuring the molybdenum atomic layer on SiO 2 /Si substrate. The reaction temperature, heating rate, holding time and carrier gas flow rate were investigated comprehensively. The quality of MoS 2 film was characterized by optical microscopy, atomic force microscopy, Raman and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The characterization results showed that the optimum synthesis parameters were heating rate of 25 °C/min, reaction temperature of 750 °C, holding time of 30 min and carrier gas velocity of 100 sccm. The MoS 2 gas sensor was fabricated and its gas sensing performance was tested. The test results indicated that the sensor had a good response to both reducing gas (NH 3 ) and oxidizing gas (NO 2 ) at room temperature. The sensitivity to 100 ppm of NO 2 was 31.3%, and the response/recovery times were 4 s and 5 s, respectively. In addition, the limit of detection could be as low as 1 ppm. This work helps us to develop low power and integrable room temperature NO 2 sensors.

We synthesized novel polyurethane (PU) membranes from isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) with a molecular weight of 2000, aminopropyl-terminated poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) with a molecular weight of 2000, and 1,4-butanediol (BDO) via a two-step polymerization. The structure of each synthesized membrane was studied through Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gel permeation chromatography. The effect of the thermal behavior was determined by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetric analysis. The gas-permeability characteristics of the PU membranes were then tested for a single gas. The results show that the permeability of CO 2 ( P CO2 ) gradually increased with PDMS content. Among these PU membranes, PU-d (PEG/PDMS = 1:1, PEG/PDMS/IPDI/BDO = 1:3:2) showed the best P CO2 (132.6 Barrer) at 25°C and 1 bar pressure. The gas-permeability coefficients of each PU membrane at different operating temperatures were investigated, and the results show that P CO2 reached 302.6 Barrer at 65°C and 1 bar. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Understanding the effect of the atmosphere on the release of alkali and alkaline-earth metals (AAEM) during oxy-fuel combustion is important for the development of oxy-fuel combustion technologies with reduced problems with particulate formation and corrosion. To this end, we examined the release behavior of AAEM during oxy-fuel combustion in different gas environments. A drop-tube reactor and ion chromatography were used to investigate the release rates of AAEM. Our results show that the release rates of Na and K were higher than those of Ca and Mg in all types of gas environments. Experimental conditions that favor combustion, namely, higher temperature, higher oxygen content, and longer residence time, markedly increased the release rates of Na and K, whereas changes in the release rates of Ca and Mg were much smaller. The presence of SO 2 in the atmosphere suppressed the release of AAEM via formation of sulfates, whereas the presence of H 2 O promoted it. A synergistic effect of H 2 O and SO 2 on the release of AAEM during oxy-fuel combustion was observed.

B-site cobalt-doped perovskite oxide BaNiO3 oxygen sorbents have been synthesized by an EDTA sol–gel method and further applied for producing oxygen. BaCoxNi1−xO3−δ oxygen sorbents were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic oxygen adsorption/desorption experiments. Results showed that BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ features higher production amounts of oxygen among the candidates. The operating factors of oxygen releasing performance were investigated in detail including adsorption temperature, desorption temperature, adsorption time, CO2 flow rate and CO2 partial pressure. It was concluded that the temperature and CO2 flow rate are the main reasons affecting the performance of perovskite oxygen sorbents. The optimal operating parameters of oxygen releasing performance for BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ were as follows: adsorption temperature was 850 °C, desorption temperature was 850 °C, air adsorption time was 30 min, CO2 flow was 200 ml min−1 and the ratio of CO2/N2 was 100 : 0. The oxygen production amount of BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ was 49.5 mg g−1 under the optimal reaction conditions. Finally, multiple cycles demonstrated that BaCo0.6Ni0.4O3−δ displays higher stability and regeneration capacity, which is the key factor providing a stable O2/CO2 gas stream for oxyfuel combustion application.

Nanostructured tungsten carbide with high surface area and containing amorphous carbon is prepared by a low temperature combustion synthesis method. The nanostructured tungsten carbide is used as the catalyst in a gas diffusion electrode. The obtained WC with different carbon content was investigated by XRD, FESEM, TG-DTA, BET and XPS. When the molar ratio of C/W is 19/3, the WC particles with different carbon content are obtained after a carbonizing process between 900 and 1400 °C, and the content of free carbon in WC also increases gradually with temperature. The carbon content is tested by the high frequency combustion-infrared absorption method in a carbon sulfur analyzer. The electrochemical properties of the tungsten carbide for the oxygen reduction reaction are characterized by its polarization curves and electrochemical impedance. The results show that the presence of the appropriate amorphous carbon is beneficial for improving the conductivity and dispersibility of the tungsten carbide catalyst, and more active centers can be provided by the catalyst.

In this work, a novel bistratal gas layer structure has been used to enhance the long-term durability of a superhydrophobic surface. The design of this bistratal structure takes inspiration from the wings of the insect Notonecta glauca and a spider web. It is comprised of an underlying semi-interpenetrating array structure and a superficial microfiber network structure. On modification with 1 H ,1 H ,2 H ,2 H -perfluorooctyltriethoxysilane (POTS), the prepared surface demonstrates an excellent superhydrophobicity with a water contact angle (WCA) of 168 ± 1.4° and a sliding angle (SA) of 4 ± 0.5°. The underlying semi-interpenetrating array structure can capture more gas to form a stable underlying gas layer, which enhances its anti-static pressure capability. When the superhydrophobic surface was impacted by a high-pressure water column (250 kPa), the superficial micro fibers network structure acted as a buffer layer to disperse the impact force that spread over the network. The prepared surface with bistratal gas layer structure was thus able to high speed water jetting (22.4 m s −1 ), which is three times the speed of the heavy rain (7–9 m s −1 ) and four times that reported for polysiloxane/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (POS/MWCNTs) surfaces (5.4 m s −1 ). Furthermore, the superhydrophobic surface designed by this method was also shown to possess self-healing and hot-water-repellent (100 °C) capability. These features demonstrate the practical potential of superhydrophobic surfaces with a bistratal gas layer structure.

A well-shaped Ce (IV)-based metal organic framework (Ce-BDC) is prepared under solvothermal method. The influence of synthesis time, temperature and the amount of acetic acid (HAc) as a modulator is studied to develop a new strategy for the synthesis of well-shaped Ce-based MOF. The relationship between the synthesis parameters and morphology as well as crystallinity of Ce-BDC is investigated by XRD and SEM. Furthermore, the obtained well-shaped Ce-BDC shows a CO 2 uptake capacity of 2.28 mmol g −1 at 0 °C and 1.0 bar. Meanwhile, the breakthrough curve behaviors of Ce-BDC are investigated for a CO 2 /CH 4 and CO 2 /N 2 mixture gas . It is found that the Ce-based MOF adsorbs CO 2 under ambient temperature and pressure, but completely excludes CH 4 and N 2 , suggesting that it is a promising adsorbent for efficient separation of CO 2 from natural gas.

Salt melt synthesis is a kind of inorganic material synthesis method developed in modern times, which has certain potential advantages and development prospects. The sensing electrode (SE) material In 2 O 3 was synthesized by the salt melt method. The composition and morphology of the synthesized products under different conditions were studied in detail by combining XRD , SEM and TEM characterization. The results show that the salt melt method can facilely synthesize high-purity In 2 O 3 powder at a lower temperature, and its morphology changes regularly with the change of reaction conditions. The effects of synthesis times and temperatures on the gas-sensing performance of In 2 O 3 were discussed. The sensor based on In 2 O 3 (380 °C − 30 min)-SE exhibited superior gas-sensing performance in the range of NH 3 concentration of 50–500 ppm. The NH 3 response characteristics exhibited little effect at different relative humidity (RH) and oxygen partial pressure conditions. In addition, the sensor exhibited good repeatability and selectivity .

TiO 2 nanoparticles are commonly used as versatile precursors to make functional nanocomposite materials. However, the surface defects at grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanoparticles significantly affect the photoelectric properties of TiO 2 nanomaterials . In this work, we firstly prepared nanocomposites of TiO 2 and polyoxometalates (POMs) in which different POMs, including titanium-substituted POMs K 5 [PW 11 TiO 40 ] and K 7 [PW 10 Ti 2 O 40 ], are incorporated with TiO 2 nanoparticles so as to make an interface modification on grain boundaries of TiO 2 nanoparticles. Then the photoconductivities of the TiO 2 /POM nanocomposites were investigated through measurement of photocurrent responses, current-voltage curves, Mott-Schottky plots and surface photocurrent spectra. Compared with pure TiO 2 nanoparticles, TiO 2 /POM nanocomposites exhibit superior photoelectric properties, benefitting from the interface modification from different POMs. The gas sensing performance for acetone was also explored by use of the as-prepared photoconductive devices, and TiO 2 /PW 11 Ti exhibited a high gas sensing performance.
