[PMID: 38703395 DOI: 10.1002/asia.202301145] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 05/01/2024] [Accepted: 05/03/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024]
Abstract
Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have gained tremendous attention as promising low-cost electrochemically-tunable electrode materials, which can accommodate large Na+ ions with attractive specific capacity and charge-discharge kinetics. However, poor cycling stability caused by lattice strain and volume change remains to be improved. Herein, metal-doping strategy has been demonstrated in FeNiHCF, Na1.40Fe0.90Ni0.10[Fe(CN)6]0.85 ⋅ 1.3H2O, delivering a capacity as high as 148 mAh g-1 at 10 mA g-1. At an exceptionally high rate of 25.6 A g-1, a reversible capacity of ~55 mAh g-1 still can be obtained with a very small capacity decay rate of 0.02 % per cycle for 1000 cycles, considered one of the best among all metal-doped PBAs. This exhibits the stabilizing effect of Ni doping which enhances structural stability and long-term cyclability. In situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction reveals an extremely small (~1 %) change in unit cell parameters. The Ni substitution is found to increase the electronic conductivity and redox activity, especially at the low-spin (LS) Fe center due to inductive effect. This larger capacity contribution from LS Fe2+C6/Fe3+C6 redox couple is responsible for stable high-rate capability of FeNiHCF. The insight gained in this work may pave the way for the design of other high-performance electrode materials for sustainable sodium-ion batteries.

Abstract
The development of self-powered flexible multicolor electrochromic (EC) systems that could switch different color without an external power supply has remained extremely challenging. Here, a new trilayer film structure for achieving self-powered flexible multicolor EC displays based on self-charging/discharging mechanism is proposed, which is simply assembled by sandwiching an ionic gel film between 2 cathodic nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF) and Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticle films on indium tin oxide substrates. The display exhibits independent self-powered color switching of NiHCF and PB films with fast responsive time and high reversibility by selectively connecting the Al wire as anodes with the 2 EC films. Multicolor switching is thus achieved through a color overlay effect by superimposing the 2 EC films, including green, blue, yellow, and colorless. The bleaching/coloration process of the displays is driven by the discharging/self-charging mechanism for NiHCF and PB films, respectively, ensuring the self-powered color switching of the displays reversibly without an external power supply. It is further demonstrated that patterns can be easily created in the self-powered EC displays by the spray-coating method, allowing multicolor changing to convey specific information. Moreover, a self-powered ionic writing board is demonstrated based on the self-powered EC displays that can be repeatedly written freehand without the need of an external power source. We believe that the design concept may provide new insights into the development of self-powered flexible multicolor EC displays with self-recovered energy for widespread applications.

Abstract
Prussian blue analogs (PBAs) have attracted wide interest as a class of ideal cathodes for rechargeable sodium-ion batteries due to their low cost, high theoretical capacity, and facile synthesis. Herein, a series of highly crystalline Fe-based PBAs (FeHCF) cubes, where HCF stands for the hexacyanoferrate, is synthesized via a one-step pyrophosphate-assisted co-precipitation method. By applying this proposed facile crystallization-controlled method to slow down the crystallization process and suppress the defect content of the crystal framework of the PBAs, the as-prepared materials demonstrate high crystallization and a sodium-rich induced rhombohedral phase. As a result, the as prepared FeHCF can deliver a high specific capacity of up to 152.0 mA h g-1 (achieving ≈90% of its theoretical value) and an excellent rate capability with a high-capacity retention ratio of 88% at 10 C, which makes it one of the most competitive candidates among the cathodes reported regarding both capacity and rate performance. A highly reversible three-phase-transition sodium-ion storage mechanism has been revealed via multiple in situ techniques. Furthermore, the full cells fabricated with as-prepared cathode and commercial hard carbon anode exhibit excellent compatibility which shows great prospects for application in the large-scale energy storage systems.

Abstract
According to the technology of carbon-based supercapacitors, modifying the structure of carbon as an active electrode material leads to an increase in capacitance. A modification involves introducing heteroatoms such as nitrogen into the carbon structure and composing it with metals such as iron. In this research, an anionic source called ferrocyanide was used to produce N-doped carbon consisting of iron nanoparticles. In fact, ferrocyanide was located as a guest between the layers of a host material, which is zinc hydroxide in the α phase. This new nanohybrid material was then heat-treated under Ar, and the heated product after acid washing was iron nanoparticles wrapped with N-doped carbon materials. This material was used as an active material in the production of symmetric supercapacitors with different organic (TEABF4 in acetonitrile) and aqueous (sodium sulfate) electrolytes as well as a new electrolyte (KCN in methanol). Accordingly, the supercapacitor made by the N/Fe-carbon active material and the organic electrolyte showed a capacitance value of 21 F/g at a current density of 0.1 A/g. This value is comparable to and even higher than the values observed in commercial supercapacitors.

Abstract
Prussian blue (PB) and its analogues are considered as promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) owing to their low cost and high capacity. However, it is still a huge challenge to avoid obvious capacity decay during cycling due to the structural collapse. Herein, we design a method to replace parts of Fe ion sites in PB with Ni ions to prepare fluffy-like nickel PB (PB-Ni) by cationic solution immersion, which improves cycling stability for sodium storage. The content of Ni in PB-Ni is explored by regulating the soaking time in the Ni-containing solution, which results in different effects on the electrochemical performance as cathodes of SIBs. Especially, PB-Ni-1d (soaking in NiCl2 solution for 1 day) exhibits an initial capacity of 114.2 mA h g-1 at 50 mA g-1 and a stable cycling performance of 800 cycles at 300 mA g-1. Furthermore, the reversible phase transformation and small volume variation for PB-Ni-1d are revealed by in situ X-ray diffraction characterization. The nickel hexacyanoferrate in outer layer maintains the cubic phase to stabilize the crystal structure. The cation-exchange strategy provides a facile idea to fabricate high-quality PB cathodes with superior stability for high-performance SIBs.

Abstract
Prussian blue and its analogues with three-dimensional frame structures have been shown to be of great importance in the research and development of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, we develop a simple and convenient self-template method to prepare a hollow-structured Prussian blue analogue (CoFe-PBA). This structure is conducive to buffer the volume changes during ion extraction and insertion processes and shorten the ion diffusion path. When further building a thin polydopamine (PDA) coating, the synthesized CoFe-PBA@PDA exhibits a high discharge capacity of 123.1 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 with a capacity retention of 71.5% after 500 cycles. Moreover, the capacity retention of CoFe-PBA@PDA after 100 cycles is 14.3% higher than that of the two comparison samples. In addition, the reversible structure of CoFe-PBA@PDA without forming a new phase was verified by in situ X-ray diffraction. This work may provide another design idea or strategy for improving the stability of the PBA cathodes used in SIBs.

Abstract
Herein, we report a two-layered hybrid catalytic interface composed of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) (PEDOT), Prussian blue (PB) nanoparticles and Nickel-Hexacyanoferrate (Ni-HCF) layer for the enzyme-free detection of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Whereas the first layer, CMC:PEDOT:PB, is responsible for generating amperometric signals toward H2O2, Ni-HCF on CMC:PEDOT:PB layer is playing an active role as an operational stability-enhancer. In the study, where the systematic optimization of the sensor electrode is presented using cyclic voltammetry (CV), amperometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique, the physical and chemical properties of the hybrid composite systems constructed is also supported by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques. The amperometric signal generation of the H2O2 sensor was linear between 1 and 100 μM (R2 = 0.999) with a sensitivity of 416.11 μA mM-1cm-2, providing a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.33 μM. The sensing system, which was not affected by the various interfering molecules, creates a successful sensor platform for H2O2 measurements in tap water with a high recovery value between 94.0% and 110.5% and relatively small RSD in the range of 0.4-5.2%.
