CHEMSUSCHEM 2023; 16:e202202347. [PMID: 36648289 DOI: 10.1002/cssc.202202347] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2022] [Revised: 01/14/2023] [Accepted: 01/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Aqueous Mg-ion batteries (MIBs) lack reliable anode materials. This study concerns the design and synthesis of a new anode material - a π-conjugate of 3D-poly(3,4,9,10-perylenetracarboxylic diimide-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine) [3D-P(PDI-T)] - for aqueous MIBs. The increased aromatic structure inhibits solubility in aqueous electrolytes, enhancing its structural stability. The 3D-P(PDI-T) anode exhibits several notable characteristics, including an extremely high rate capacity of 358 mAh g-1 at 0.05 A g-1 , A 3D-P(PDI-T)‖Mg2 MnO4 full cell exhibits a reversible capacity of 148 mAh g-1 and a long cycle life of 5000 cycles at 0.5 A g-1 . The charge storage mechanism reveals a synergistic interaction of Mg2+ and H+ cations with C-N/C=O groups. The assembled 3D-P(PDI-T)‖Mg2 MnO4 full cell exhibits a capacity retention of around 95 % after 5000 cycles at 0.5 A g-1 . This 3D-P(PDI-T) anode sustained its framework structure during the charge-discharge cycling of Mg-ion batteries. The reported results provide a strong basis for a cutting-edge molecular engineering technique to afford improved organic materials that facilitate efficient charge-storage behavior of aqueous Mg-ion batteries.

Abstract
Worldwide demand for oil, coal, and natural gas has increased recently because of odd weather patterns and economies recovering from the pandemic. By using these fuels at an astonishing rate, their reserves are running low with each passing decade. Increased reliance on these sources is contributing significantly to both global warming and power shortage problems. It is vital to highlight and focus on using renewable energy sources for power production and storage. This review aims to discuss one of the cutting-edge technologies, metal-air batteries, which are currently being researched for energy storage applications. A battery that employs an external cathode of ambient air and an anode constructed of pure metal in which an electrolyte can be aqueous or aprotic electrolyte is termed as a metal-air battery (MAB). Due to their reportedly higher energy density, MABs are frequently hailed as the electrochemical energy storage of the future for applications like grid storage or electric car energy storage. The demand of the upcoming energy storage technologies can be satisfied by these MABs. The usage of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in metal-air batteries as a bi-functional electrocatalyst has been widely studied in the last decade. Metal ions or arrays bound to organic ligands to create one, two, or three-dimensional structures make up the family of molecules known as MOFs. They are a subclass of coordination polymers; metal nodes and organic linkers form different classes of these porous materials. Because of their modular design, they offer excellent synthetic tunability, enabling precise chemical and structural control that is highly desirable in electrode materials of MABs.

Abstract
Rechargeable lithium batteries have been intensively explored due to their potential to deliver a high energy and stable cycling performance. Yet considerable achievements have been reported on battery performance in lab-based research, a broad gap from fundamental research to their industrial application needs to be filled. The significant advances in the field of carbon nanotubes over the past decades make it a promising candidate to bridge such a gap. Nevertheless, a systematic and profound understanding of its roles in Li batteries is lacking. In this review, we discuss the critical role of carbon nanotube in developing several lithium techniques such as Li-ion, Li-sulfur, and Li-air cells. The focus is laid on the elevation of device capacity, energy, and cyclic life to meet the practical demand. We hope this paper, together with other recently-proposed guiding principles, will pave the way for the massive application of carbon nanotube-based lithium batteries.

Abstract
Over the past few years, great attention has been given to nonaqueous lithium-air batteries owing to their ultrahigh theoretical energy density when compared with other energy storage systems. Most of the research interest, however, is dedicated to batteries operating in pure or dry oxygen atmospheres, while Li-air batteries that operate in ambient air still face big challenges. The biggest challenges are H2 O and CO2 that exist in ambient air, which can not only form byproducts with discharge products (Li2 O2 ), but also react with the electrolyte and the Li anode. To this end, recent progress in understanding the chemical and electrochemical reactions of Li-air batteries in ambient air is critical for the development and application of true Li-air batteries. Oxygen-selective membranes, multifunctional catalysts, and electrolyte alternatives for ambient air operational Li-air batteries are presented and discussed comprehensively. In addition, separator modification and Li anode protection are covered. Furthermore, the challenges and directions for the future development of Li-air batteries are presented.

Abstract
Wearable electronics have been receiving increasing attention for the past few decades. Particularly, fiber-based electronics are considered to be ideal for many applications for their flexibility, lightweight, breathability, and comfortability. Furthermore, fibers and fiber-based textiles can be 3D-molded with ease and potentially integrated with everyday clothes or accessories. These properties are especially desired in the fields of bio-related sensors and energy-storage systems. Wearable sensors utilize a tight interface with human skin and clothes for continuous environmental scanning and non-invasive health monitoring. At the same time, their flexible and lightweight properties allow more convenient and user-friendly experiences to the wearers. Similarly, for the wearable devices to be more accessible, it is crucial to incorporate energy harvesting and storage systems into the device themselves, removing the need to attach an external power source. This review summarizes the recent applications of fibers and fiber-based textiles in mechanical, photonic, and biomedical sensors. Pressure and strain sensors and their implementation as electronic skins will be explored, along with other various fiber sensors capable of imaging objects or monitoring safety and health markers. In addition, we attempt to elucidate recent studies in energy-storing fibers and their implication in self-powered and fully wireless wearable devices.

Abstract
Modern electronic devices are moving toward miniaturization and integration with an emerging focus on wearable electronics. Due to their close contact with the human body, wearable electronics have new requirements including low weight, small size, and flexibility. Conventional 3D and 2D electronic devices fail to efficiently meet these requirements due to their rigidity and bulkiness. Hence, a new family of 1D fiber-shaped electronic devices including energy-harvesting devices, energy-storage devices, light-emitting devices, and sensing devices has risen to the challenge due to their small diameter, lightweight, flexibility, and weavability into soft textile electronics. The application challenges faced by fiber and textile electronics from single fiber-shaped devices to continuously scalable fabrication, to encapsulation and testing, and to application mode exploration, are discussed. The evolutionary trends of fiber and textile electronics are then summarized. Finally, future directions required to boost their commercialization are highlighted.

Magnesium Storage Performance and Mechanism of 2D-Ultrathin Nanosheet-Assembled Spinel MgIn 2 S 4 Cathode for High-Temperature Mg Batteries. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2019; 15:e1902236.

Abstract
Magnesium batteries have the potential to be a next generation battery with large capability and high safety, owing to the high abundance, great volumetric energy density, and reversible dendrite-free capability of Mg anodes. However, the lack of a stable high-voltage electrolyte, and the sluggish Mg-ion diffusion in lattices and through interfaces limit the practical uses of Mg batteries. Herein, a spinel MgIn2 S4 microflower-like material assembled by 2D-ultrathin (≈5.0 nm) nanosheets is reported and first used as a cathode material for high-temperature Mg batteries with an ionic liquid electrolyte. The nonflammable ionic liquid electrolyte ensure the safety under high temperatures. As prepared MgIn2 S4 exhibits wide-temperature-range adaptability (50-150 °C), ultrahigh capacity (≈500 mAh g-1 under 1.2 V vs Mg/Mg2+ ), fast Mg2+ diffusibility (≈2.0 × 10-8 cm2 s-1 ), and excellent cyclability (without capacity decay after 450 cycles). These excellent electrochemical properties are due to the fast kinetics of magnesium by the 2D nanosheets spinel structure and safe high-temperature operation environment. From ex situ X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy measurements, a conversion reaction of the Mg2+ storage mechanism is found. The excellent performance and superior security make it promising in high-temperature batteries for practical applications.

Abstract
In the loop of numerous challenges and ambiguities, Li-O2 batteries are crawling to reach their commercialization phase. To achieve the progressive milestones, along with the developments in the architecture of cathodes, anodes, and electrolytes, understanding its failure mode is equally important. Under an unrestricted charge-discharge protocol, cyclability of nonaqueous Li-O2 batteries are limited to only a few cycles. This report examines an additive-free ether-based Li-O2 battery in the perspective of identifying the origin of possible side reactions and their affiliations to integral components of the battery. Structural and compositional changes during every charge-discharge sequence are studied using bottom-up sequential tear-down analysis. The substantial increase in impedance and corresponding decrease in capacities after every cycle are interrelated to the amount of electrode passivation resulting from the discharge products and electrolyte decomposition. From the tear-down analysis, it is approximated that, among the total capacity loss, ≈55% is attributed to the cathode, ≈28% of the loss corresponds to the anode, and ≈17% is attributed to the electrolyte, given that battery failure instigates from the "reactive oxygen species". Electrochemically formed Li2O2 via the superoxide pathway induces large decomposition overpotentials up to 4.6 V versus Li/Li+ because of its overrated reactivity with electrolytes and carbon supports. On the contrary, efficient decomposition of chemically formed Li2O2 below 3.9 V proves that the extra charge potential observed for electrochemically formed Li2O2 is in fact consumed for the decomposition of irreversibly formed side products via the superoxide pathway. Spontaneous reactivity of Li2O2 and trivial reactivity of Li2O highlight the need of advanced strategies to maneuver oxygen red-ox in selective pathways that unalter the electrolyte and electrodes, and the necessity of their synchronized performance for the evolution of practical Li-O2 batteries.

Abstract
The electrochemical (de)intercalation reactions of lithium ions are initiated at the electrode surface in contact with an electrolyte solution. Therefore, substantial structural degradation, which shortens the cycle life of cells, is frequently observed at the surface of cathode particles, including lithium-metal intermixing, phase transitions, and dissolution of lithium and transition metals into the electrolyte. Furthermore, in contrast to the strict restriction of moisture in lithium-ion cells with nonaqueous organic electrolytes, electrode materials in aqueous-electrolyte cells are under much more reactive environments with water and oxygen, thereby leading to serious surface chemical reactions on the cathode particles. The present article presents key results regarding structural and composition variations at the surface of oxide-based cathodes in both high-performance nonaqueous and recently proposed aqueous lithium-ion batteries; in particular, focusing on direct atomic-scale observations preformed by means of scanning transmission electron microscopy. Precise identification of surface degradation at the atomic level is thus emphasized because it can provide significant insights into overcoming the limitations of current lithium-ion batteries.
