Enabling wide temperature battery operation with hybrid lithium electrolytes
Chem Commun (Camb). 2024 Apr 25. doi: 10.1039/d4cc01110d. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTWe demonstrate that an ionic liquid 1-ethyl-1-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide combined with propylene carbonate and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide yields a hybrid electrolyte that enables a wide operational temperature window (-20 °C to 60 °C). When integrated into a lithium titanate‖lithium cobalt oxide full-cell configuration, high-rate capability is achieved at -20 °C with >40% retention at a C/2 cycling rate, and negligible capacity fade is observed during rate capability tests and long-term...

Design of Solid Polycationic Electrolyte to Enable Durable Chloride-Ion Batteries
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2024 Apr 25:e202405750. doi: 10.1002/anie.202405750. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe high energy density and cost-effectiveness of chloride-ion batteries (CIBs) make them promising alternatives to lithium-ion batteries. However, the development of CIBs is greatly restricted by the lack of compatible electrolytes to support cost-effective anodes. Herein, we present a rationally designed solid polycationic electrolyte (SPE) to enable room-temperature chloride-ion batteries utilizing aluminum (Al) metal as an anode. This SPE endows the CIB configuration with improved air stability and safety (i.e. fr...

Effects of moderate intensity training and lithium on spatial learning and memory in a rat model: The role of SIRT3 and PGC1- α expression levels and brain-derived neurotropic factor
In this study we investigated the potential synergistic effects of moderate interval training (MIT) and lithium on spatial learning and memory. Forty-two male Wistar males were classified into six groups including I: Control, II: 10 mg/kg/day IP lithium (Li10), III: MIT, IV: Li10 + MIT, V: 40 mg/kg/day IP lithium (Li40), and VI: Li40 + MIT. Then, the rats underwent Morris Water Maze (MWM) test to assess their spatial memory and learning ability. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) density was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and the expression of PGC1 and SIRT3 were assessed via qRT-PCR. The resu...

Crown Ether Electrolyte Induced Li2O2 Amorphization for Low Polarization and Long Lifespan Li-O2 batteries
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2024 Apr 24:e202403521. doi: 10.1002/anie.202403521. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLithium-oxygen batteries possess an extremely high theoretical energy density, rendering them a prime candidate for next-generation secondary batteries. However, they still face multiple problems such as huge charge polarization and poor cycle life, which lay a significant gap between laboratory research and commercial applications. In this work, we adapt 15-crown-5 ether (C15) as solvent to regulate the generation of discharge products in lithium-oxygen batteries. The coronal structure endows C15 with strong affinity...

Behavior of Lithium Amide Under Argon Plasma
ChemSusChem. 2024 Apr 24:e202400221. doi: 10.1002/cssc.202400221. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlkali and alkaline earth metal amides are a type of functional materials for hydrogen storage, thermal energy storage, ion conduction, and chemical transformations such as ammonia synthesis and decomposition. The thermal chemistry of lithium amide (LiNH2), as a simple but representative alkali or alkaline earth metal amide, has been well studied previously encouraged by its potentials in hydrogen storage. In comparison, little is known about the interaction of plasma and LiNH2. Herein, we report that the plasma treatment of LiN...
