[PMID: 39120374 PMCID: PMC11314524 DOI: 10.3390/nano14151269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2024] [Revised: 07/25/2024] [Accepted: 07/25/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
High-energy-density Li-CO2 batteries are promising candidates for large-capacity energy storage systems. However, the development of Li-CO2 batteries has been hindered by low cycle life and high overpotential. In this study, we propose a CO2-based thermoplastic polyurethane (CO2-based TPU) with CO2 adsorption properties and excellent self-healing performance to replace traditional polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the cathode binder. The CO2-based TPU enhances the interfacial concentration of CO2 at the cathode/electrolyte interfaces, effectively increasing the discharge voltage and lowering the charge voltage of Li-CO2 batteries. Moreover, the CO2 fixed by urethane groups (-NH-COO-) in the CO2-based TPU are difficult to shuttle to and corrode the Li anode, minimizing CO2 side reactions with lithium metal and improving the cycling performance of Li-CO2 batteries. In this work, Li-CO2 batteries with CO2-based TPU as the multifunctional binders exhibit stable cycling performance for 52 cycles at a current density of 0.2 A g-1, with a distinctly lower polarization voltage than PVDF bound Li-CO2 batteries.

Improving the Adhesion of Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes to Titanium by Irradiating the Interface with He + Ions: Atomic Force Microscopy and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy Study. NANOMATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 14:699.

Abstract
A complex study of the adhesion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes to a titanium surface, depending on the modes of irradiation with He+ ions of the "MWCNT/Ti" system, was conducted using atomic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A quantitative assessment of the adhesion force at the interface, performed using atomic force microscopy, demonstrated its significant increase as a result of treatment of the "MWCNT/Ti" system with a beam of helium ions. The nature of the chemical bonding between multi-walled carbon nanotubes and the surface of the titanium substrate, which causes this increase in the adhesion of nanotubes to titanium as a result of ion irradiation, was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was established that this bonding is the result of the formation of chemical C-O-Ti bonds between titanium and carbon atoms with the participation of oxygen atoms of oxygen-containing functional groups, which are localized on defects in the nanotube walls formed during ion irradiation. It is significant that there are no signs of direct bonding between titanium and carbon atoms.

Abstract
Manganese oxides are commonly employed as a cathode for magnesium ion storage in aqueous magnesium ion hybrid supercapacitors (MHS). However, sluggish reaction kinetics still hinders their practical application. Herein, we designed K-birnessite-MnO2 and electrostatically spun mulberry-like carbon composites (K-MnO2/HMCs) via an in situ growth technique. Benefiting from the 3D conductive carbon network substrate, the in situ fabricated K-MnO2 exhibits more active sites and provides more interfacial contact area between the electrode material and the electrolyte. This improvement enhances its conductivity, facilitating the rapid transfer of electrons, diffusion of ions, and redox reactions. As a result, K-MnO2/HMC-based MHS achieves a specific capacity of 168 mA h g-1 at 0.5 A g-1, simultaneously exhibiting a superior energy density of 111.1 W h kg-1 at a power density of 505 W kg-1. Furthermore, it demonstrates excellent high rate performance and a long cycling life for aqueous magnesium ion storage, offering new insights for MHS applications.

Abstract
A silicon suboxide-carbon (SiO x /C, 1 ≤ x ≤ 2) composite anode of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with enhanced performance is prepared using an aqueous multicomponent binder technology. Considering the adhesive force, electrolyte absorption, and stability, different binders including sodium alginate (SA), polyacrylamide gel (PAM), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), and their composites are evaluated. It is indicated that compared to other anodes with single- or multicomponent binders, the SiO x /C composite anode with PAM/SA/PTFE663 (PSAP663) binders exhibits strong adhesion, moderate electrolyte absorption ability, and a specific capacity of 427 mA h g-1 charge-discharged at 0.5 A g-1 after 300 cycles. The improvement of electrochemical performance is attributed to the comprehensive effects of composite binders, including the adhesion of active substances, surface protection, solution adsorption, conductive path, and so on. These results show that the PSAP663 binder has promising potential for application, which not only gives alternative practical schemes of the green binders for the SiO x /C anodes but also provides ideas to develop a high-performance adhesive technology for LIBs.
