Abstract
This study presents an economic and environmentally friendly method for the synthesis of microspherical FePO4·2H2O precursors with secondary nanostructures by the electroflocculation of low-cost iron fillers in a hot solution. The morphology and crystalline shape of the precursors were adjusted by gradient co-precipitation of pH conditions. The effect of precursor structure and morphology on the electrochemical performance of the synthesized LiFePO4/C was investigated. Electrochemical analysis showed that the assembly of FePO4·2H2O submicron spherical particles from primary nanoparticles and nanorods resulted in LiFePO4/C exhibiting excellent multiplicity and cycling performance with first discharge capacities at 0.2C, 1C, 5C, and 10C of 162.8, 134.7, 85.5, and 47.7 mAh·g-1, respectively, and the capacity of LiFePO4/C was maintained at 85.5% after 300 cycles at 1C. The significant improvement in the electrochemical performance of LiFePO4/C was attributed to the enhanced Li+ diffusion rate and the crystallinity of LiFePO4/C. Thus, this work shows a new three-dimensional mesoporous FePO4 synthesized from the iron flake electroflocculation as a precursor for high-performance LiFePO4/C cathodes for lithium-ion batteries.

MATERIALS 2021; 14:ma14247729. [PMID: 34947323 PMCID: PMC8705748 DOI: 10.3390/ma14247729] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/07/2021] [Revised: 12/10/2021] [Accepted: 12/12/2021] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
The work presents the synthesis of FeCl3-modified carbonaceous catalysts obtained from waste orange peel and their application in the oxidation of alpha-pinene in solvent-free reaction conditions. The use of waste orange peel as presented here (not described in the literature) is an effective and cheap way of managing this valuable and renewable biomass. FeCl3-modified carbonaceous materials were obtained by a two-stage method: in the first stage, activated carbon was obtained, and in the second stage, it was modified by FeCl3 in the presence of H3PO4 (three different molar ratios of these two compounds were used in the studies). The obtained FeCl3-modified carbon materials were subjected to detailed instrumental studies using the methods FT-IR (Fourier-transform Infrared Spectroscopy), XRD (X-ray Diffraction), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), EDXRF (Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence) and XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), while the textural properties of these materials were also studied, such as the specific surface area and total pore volume. Catalytic tests with the three modified activated carbons showed that the catalyst obtained with the participation of 6 M of FeCl3 and 3 M aqueous solutions of H3PO4 was the most active in the oxidation of alpha-pinene. Further tests (influence of temperature, amount of catalyst, and reaction time) with this catalyst made it possible to determine the most favorable conditions for conducting oxidation on this type of catalyst, and allowed study of the kinetics of this process. The most favorable conditions for the process were: temperature of 100 °C, catalyst content of 0.5 wt% and reaction time 120 min (very mild process conditions). The conversion of the organic raw material obtained under these conditions was 40 mol%, and the selectivity of the transformation to alpha-pinene oxide reached the value of 35 mol%. In addition to the epoxy compound, other valuable products, such as verbenone and verbenol, were formed while carrying out the process.

Abstract
Silicon oxides are promising alternatives for graphite anodes in lithium-ion batteries. SiOx nanosheets exhibit favorable anodic performances, including outstanding capacity retention and dimensional stability, due to their unique two-dimensional (2D) microstructures, but suffer from low specific capacity and poor initial coulombic efficiency. Here we demonstrate that chemically anchoring of molybdenum dioxide (MoO2) nanoparticles on the surface of 2D-SiOx nanosheets via a Mo–O–Si bond boosts both the reversible capacity and initial coloumbic efficiency without sacrificing the useful properties of 2D-SiOx nanosheets. The enhancements can be attributed to the introduction of a zero-dimensional MoO2 nano-object, which offers abnormal storage sites for lithium. The proposed nano-architecturing shows how we can maximize the advantages of 2D nanomaterials for energy storage applications. By the synergistic effect of the unique properties of 2D-SiOx and 0D-MoO2, the 2D-SiOx/0D-MoO2 nanocomposites show enhancement in Li-storage properties.![]()

Abstract
Nanoporous nickel, aluminum, and zirconium phosphates (hereafter, abbreviated as NiP, AlP, and ZrP, respectively) with high surface areas and controlled morphology and crystallinity have been synthesized through simple calcination of the corresponding phosphonates. For the preparation of phosphonate materials, nitrilotris(methylene)triphosphonic acid (NMPA) is used as phosphorus source. The organic component in the phosphonate materials is thermally removed to form nanoporous structures in the final phosphate materials. The formation mechanism of nanoporous structures, as well as the effect of applied calcination temperatures on the morphology and crystallinity of the final phosphate materials, is carefully discussed. Especially, nanoporous NiP materials have a spherical morphology with a high surface area and can have great applicability as an electrode material for supercapacitors. It has been found that there is a critical effect of particle sizes, surface areas, and the crystallinities of NiP materials toward electrochemical behavior. Our nanoporous NiP material has superior specific capacitance, as compared to various phosphate nanomaterials reported previously. Excellent retention capacity of 97% is realized even after 1000 cycles, which can be ascribed to its high structural stability.
