文摘The oxidation behavior of ferrovanadium spinel(FeV_(2)O_(4)),synthesized via high-temperature solid-state reaction,was investigated using thermogravimetry,X-ray diffractometry,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy over the temperature range of 450–700℃.The results revealed that the oxidation process of FeV_(2)O_(4)can be divided into three stages with the second stage being responsible for maximum weight gain due to oxidation.Three classical methods were employed to analyze the reaction mechanisms and model functions for distinct oxidation stages.The random nucleation and subsequent growth(A_(3))kinetic model was found to be applicable to both initial and secondary stage.The third stage of oxidation was consistent with the three-dimensional diffusion,spherical symmetry(D_(3))kinetic mode.Both the model-function method and the model-free method were utilized to investigate the apparent activation energy of the oxidation reaction at each stage.It was found that the intermediates including Fe_(3)O_(4),VO_(2),V_(2)O_(3),and Fe_(2.5)V_(7.11)O_(16),played significant roles in the oxidation process prior to the final formation of FeVO_(4)and V_(2)O_(5)through oxidation of FeV_(2)O_(4).
文摘Electro-copolymerized film containing ruthenium complexes as electron-transfer(or redox)mediators and water-oxidation catalysts by an oxidative copolymerization method is presented.The addition of the redox mediator significantly improved the electrocatalytic water-oxidation activity and reduced the overpotential to 220 mV.The prepared electrode showed a water-oxidation catalytic rate constant kobs of 31.7 s^(-1)and an initial turnover frequency of 1.01 s^(-1)in 1000 s by potential electrolysis at 1.7 V applied bias vs NHE(normal hydrogen electrode).The kinetic isotope effect study suggests that the catalytic water oxidation reaction on the electrode surface occurs via a bimolecular coupling mechanism.

文摘Biomass-derived platform molecules,such as furfural,are abundant and renewable feedstock for valuable chemical production.It is critical to synthesize highly efficient photocatalysts for selective oxidation under visible light.The Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2) catalyst was synthesized using a straight-forward hydrothermal technique,and exhibited exceptional efficiency in the photocatalytic oxidation of furfural to furoic acid.The catalyst was thoroughly characterized,confirming the effective adjustment of the band gap energy of Er@K-C_(3)N_(4)/UiO-66-NH_(2).Upon the optimized reaction conditions,the conversion rate of furfural reached 89.3%,with a corresponding yield of furoic acid at 79.8%.The primary reactive oxygen species was identified as·O_(2)^(-) from ESR spectra and scavenger tests.The incorporation of Er and K into the catalyst enhanced the photogenerated carriers transfer rate,hence increasing the separating efficiency of photogenerated electron-hole pairs.This study expands the potential applications of rare earth element doped g-C_(3)N_(4) in the photocatalytic selective oxidation of furfurans.

文摘ZrB_(2)-based ceramics typically necessitate high temperature and pressure for sintering,whereas ZrB_(2)-SiC ceramics can be fabricated at 1500℃using the process of reactive melt infiltration with Si.In comparison to the conventional preparation method,reactive synthesis allows for the more facile production of ultra-high temperature ceramics with fine particle size and homogeneous composition.In this work,ZrSi_(2),B4C,and C were used as raw materials to prepare ZrB_(2)-SiC via combination of tape casting and reactive melt infiltration herein referred to as ZBC ceramics.Control sample of ZrB_(2)-SiC was also prepared using ZrB_(2)and SiC as raw materials through an identical process designated as ZS ceramics.Microscopic analysis of both ceramic groups revealed smaller and more uniformly distributed particles of the ZrB_(2)phase in ZBC ceramics compared to the larger particles in ZS ceramics.Both sets of ceramics underwent cyclic oxidation testing in the air at 1600℃for a cumulative duration of 5 cycles,each cycle lasting 2 h.Analysis of the oxidation behavior showed that both ZBC ceramics and ZS ceramics developed a glassy SiO_(2)-ZrO_(2)oxide layer on their surfaces during the oxidation.This layer severed as a barrier against oxygen.In ZBC ceramics,ZrO_(2)is finely distributed in SiO_(2),whereas in ZS ceramics,larger ZrO_(2)particles coexist with glassy SiO_(2).The surface oxide layer of ZBC ceramics maintains a dense structure because the well-dispersed ZrO_(2)increases the viscosity of glassy SiO_(2),preventing its crystallization during the cooling.Conversely,some SiO_(2)in the oxide layer of ZS ceramics may crystallize and form a eutectic with ZrO_(2),leading to the formation of ZrSiO_(4).This leads to cracking of the oxide layer due to differences in thermal expansion coefficients,weakening its barrier effect.An analysis of the oxidation resistance shows that ZBC ceramics exhibit less increase in oxide layer thickness and mass compared to ZS ceramics,suggesting superior oxidation resistance of ZBC ceramics.

文摘Reversible solid oxide cell(RSOC)is a new energy conversion device with significant applications,especially for power grid peaking shaving.However,the reversible conversion process of power generation/energy storage poses challenges for the performance and stability of air electrodes.In this work,a novel high-entropy perovskite oxide La_(0.2)Pr_(0.2)Gd_(0.2)Sm_(0.2)Sr_(0.2)Co_(0.8)Fe_(0.2)O_(3−δ)(HE-LSCF)is proposed and investigated as an air electrode in RSOC.The electrochemical behavior of HE-LSCF was studied as an air electrode in both fuel cell and electrolysis modes.The polarization impedance(Rp)of the HE-LSCF electrode is only 0.25Ω·cm^(2) at 800℃ in an air atmosphere.Notably,at an electrolytic voltage of 2 V and a temperature of 800℃,the current density reaches up to 1.68 A/cm^(2).The HE-LSCF air electrode exhibited excellent reversibility and stability,and its electrochemical performance remains stable after 100 h of reversible operation.With these advantages,HE-LSCF is shown to be an excellent air electrode for RSOC.

文摘Formic acid oxidation reaction(FAOR),as the anodic reaction in direct formic acid fuel cells,has attracted much attention but increasing the mass activity and stability of catalysts still face a bottleneck to meet the requirements of practical applications.In the past decades,researchers developed many strategies to fix these issues by improving the structure of catalysts and the newly raised single atom catalysts(SACs)show the high mass activity and stability in FAOR.This review first summarized the reaction mechanism involved in FAOR.The mass activity as well as stability of catalysts reported in the past five years have been outlined.Moreover,the synthetic strategies to improve the catalytic performance of catalysts are also reviewed in this work.Finally,we proposed the research directions to guide the rational design of new FAOR catalysts in the future.

文摘Inducing the classic strong metal-support interaction(SMSI)is an effective approach to enhance the performance of supported metal catalysts by encapsulating the metal nanoparticles(NPs)with supports.Conventional thermal reduction method for inducing SMSI processes is often accompanied by undesirable structural evolution of metal NPs.In this study,a mild electrochemical method has been developed as a new approach to induce SMSI,using the cable structured core@shell CNT@SnO_(2) loaded Pt NPs as a proof of concept.The induced SnO_(x) encapsulation layer on the surface of Pt NPs can protect Pt NPs from the poisoned of CO impurity in hydrogen oxidation reaction(HOR),and the HOR current density could still maintain 85% for 2000 s with 10,000 ppm CO in H_(2),while the commercial Pt/C is completely inactivated.In addition,the electrons transfer from SnO_(x) to Pt NPs improved the HOR activity of the E-Pt-CNT@SnO_(2),achieving the excellent exchange current density of 1.55 A·mgPt^(-1).In situ Raman spectra and theoretical calculations show that the key to the electrochemical-method-induced SMSI is the formation of defects and the migration of SnO_(x) caused by the electrochemical redox operation,and the weakening the SneO bond strength by Pt NPs.

文摘Graphene oxide nanomaterials are increasingly used in various fields due to their superior properties.In order to study the influence of graphene oxide additives on the performance of modified asphalt,in this study,graphene oxide modified asphalt was prepared and characteristics was studied including the high deformation resistance performance and the self-healing property of modified asphalt.Functional groups and morphology of graphene oxide modified asphalt were described by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.The high deformation resistance performance and self-healing effect of asphalt samples were obtained through dynamic slear rheometer(DSR)test.Results shows that graphene oxide dispersions improve the performance of asphalt relatively well compared to graphene oxide powder.There is no chemical reaction between graphene oxide and asphalt,but physical connection.The addition of graphene oxide improved the high deformation resistance of modified asphalt and expedited the self-healing ability of asphalt under fatigue load.
文摘With the aim to effectively depolymerize polyethylene terephthalate(PET)under mild reaction conditions,PET methanolysis and dimethyl terephthalate(DMT)hydrolysis are integrated in a catalyst system.Firstly,methanolysis of PET to DMT is achieved over Cu-Mg-Al oxide catalyst.Next,terephthalic acid(TPA)is prepared by DMT hydrolysis.It is found that hydrolysis of DMT to TPA can be promoted by introducing trace amount of water in this catalyst system.CuO-MgO-4.5Al_2O_(3)catalyst demonstrates the excellent catalytic performance for the depolymerization of PET with high conversion rate and TPA yield(100%and 99.5%,respectively)after reaction at 160℃for 6 h,which provides a new idea for the depolymerization of PET.

文摘Solid oxide electrolysis cells(SOECs)can effectively convert CO_(2)into high value-added CO fuel.In this paper,Sc-doped Sr_(2)Fe_(1.5)Mo_(0.3)Sc_(0.2)O_(6−δ)(SFMSc)perovskite oxide material is synthesized via solid-phase method as the cathode for CO_(2)electrolysis by SOECs.XRD confirms that SFMSc exhibits a stable cubic phase crystal structure.The experimental results of TPD,TG,EPR,CO_(2)-TPD further demonstrate that Sc-doping increases the concentration of oxygen vacancy in the material and the chemical adsorption capacity of CO_(2)molecules.Electrochemical tests reveal that SFMSc single cell achieves a current density of 2.26 A/cm^(2) and a lower polarization impedance of 0.32Ω·cm^(2) at 800°C under the applied voltage of 1.8 V.And no significant performance attenuation or carbon deposition is observed after 80 h continuous long-term stability test.This study provides a favorable support for the development of SOEC cathode materials with good electro-catalytic performance and stability.

文摘Development of methodologies for fabrications of nanostructured materials that provide control over their microstructural features and compositions represents a fundamental step in the advancement of technologies for productions of materials with well-defined functional properties.Pulse electrolysis,a top-down electrochemical approach,has been demonstrated to be a viable method for producing nanostructured materials with a particular efficacy in the synthesis of tin oxides.This method allows for significant control over the composition and shape of the resulting tin oxides particles by modifying the anionic composition of the aqueous electrolyte,obviating the need for additional capping agents in the synthesis process and eliminating the requirement for high-temperature post-treatments.The composition and microstructural characteristics of these oxides are found to be contingent upon the differing stabilities of tin fluoride and chloride complexes,as well as the distinct mechanisms of interaction between chloride and fluoride anions with an oxidized tin surface,which is influenced by the varying kosmotropic/chaotropic nature of these anions.The composition and microstructural characteristics of the obtained dispersed tin oxides would thus determine their potential applications as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries,as a photocatalyst,or as an oxyphilic component of a hybrid support for a platinum-containing electrocatalyst.

文摘This work investigates the transient performance and stability of CO_(2)/H_(2)O co-electrolysis in an air-free environment using a flat-tube solid oxide electrolysis cell(SOEC)stack.The results showed that the transient behavior of the stack with and without blowing gas into the air electrode is almost the same.With a current density of 0.67 A·cm^(-2)@750℃,the stack operated for over 200 h under co-electrolysis conditions without air blowing,and the voltage drop rate of the stack was approximately 0.203%/100 hours.Microstructure analysis revealed a significant loss of nickel particles and an apparent for-mation of an insulating phase strontium chromate(SrCrO4)on the surface of the current collection layer of the air electrode,which are identified as key factors contributing to the performance degradation of the stack.This study provides a reference for development of efficient fuel preparation technology based on SOEC stack in airless environments.
