Etherification of Biodiesel-Based Glycerol with Bioethanol over Tungstophosphoric Acid To Synthesize Glyceryl Ethers

Energy & Fuels (2011)

Zhenle Yuan Shuixin Xia Ping Chen Zhaoyin Hou Xiaoming Zheng

Etherification of biodiesel-based glycerol with bioethanol was investigated over a series of catalysts. The etherification of glycerol performed on acid catalysts, such as H-ZSM5, H-β, tungstophosphoric acid (HPW), FeCl3, AlCl3, and H2SO4, was found. Basic catalysts (such as alkaline earth oxides, MgO) are inactive for the reaction. Bulk HPW and SiO2-supported HPW catalysts exhibited the highest activity among the tested catalysts, with a 97.1% conversion of glycerol. Over the HPW catalyst, the etherification reactions were carried out at different temperatures, varied ratios between ethanol and glycerol, different catalyst amounts, and different reaction times. The SiO2-supported HPW catalyst has a high initial activity, but it deactivated gradually because of the leaching of HPW.

Unravelling the room-temperature atomic structure and growth kinetics of lithium metal

Nature Communications (2020)

Chao Liang Xun Zhang Shuixin Xia Zeyu Wang Jiayi Wu

Alkali metals are widely studied in various fields such as medicine and battery. However, limited by the chemical reactivity and electron/ion beam sensitivity, the intrinsic atomic structure of alkali metals and its fundamental properties are difficult to be revealed. Here, a simple and versatile method is proposed to form the alkali metals in situ inside the transmission electron microscope. Taking alkali salts as the starting materials and electron beam as the trigger, alkali metals can be obtained directly. With this method, atomic resolution imaging of lithium and sodium metal is achieved at room temperature, and the growth of alkali metals is visualized at atomic-scale with millisecond temporal resolution. Furthermore, our observations unravel the ambiguities in lithium metal growth on garnet-type solid electrolytes for lithium-metal batteries. Finally, our method enables a direct study of physical contact property of lithium metal as well as its surface passivation oxide layer, which may contribute to better understanding of lithium dendrite and solid electrolyte interphase issues in lithium ion batteries.

Stable All‐Solid‐State Na Batteries Enabled by In Situ Formed Na─B─H─F Electrolyte

Advanced Energy Materials (2023)

Yuepeng Pang Depei Zhang Hao Sun Xin Li Shuixin Xia

Abstract All‐solid‐state Na‐ion batteries are considered to be one of the most promising candidates for large‐scale applications at low‐cost. Hydride electrolytes have been pursued as a research hotspot more recently, owing to their high Na‐ion conductivities, while there is an urgent need to address their electrochemical stabilities in order to meet the requirements for applications in Na batteries. Herein, a novel and universal strategy is proposed to improve the electrochemical stabilities of hydride electrolytes, which takes advantage of the in situ reactions between hydrides and NaHF 2 . As a representative example, Na 2 B 12 H 12 can react with NaHF 2 to form NaF nanoparticles that are uniformly embedded in the Na 2 B 12 H 11 F matrix, which exhibits superior electrode compatibilities without apparent reduction in conductivity. The symmetrical Na cell thus derived shows a long‐term cycling and the quasi‐symmetrical Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 cell shows high Coulombic efficiency. They give rise to a stable cycling of the Na||Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 all‐solid‐state batteries with a capacity retention of 87.7% after 100 cycles, which can be attributed to the stabilization of electrolyte/electrode interfaces by the F‐enriched interphases. Beyond Na batteries, the present study sheds timely new light on the development of hydride electrolytes for other long‐waited applications.

A Highly Stable Practical Li Metal Anode via Interphase Regulation and Nucleation Induction

Advanced Energy Materials (2024)

Shuixin Xia Zongyan Jiang Xiaoyu Zhao Jodie A. Yuwono Xun Zhang

Abstract The practical utilization of Li metal anodes has been significantly plagued by the challenges of uncontrollable dendritic Li growth and poor interphase instability. Here, the study reports a novel strategy to strengthen interphase and give highly efficient active seeds concurrently to stabilize Li metal via a highly lithiophilic In 2 O 3 decorated porous scaffold. In situ configurated fast‐ion‐transport Li 2 O‐strengthened interphase layer cooperatively with highly efficient Li 13 In 3 nucleation induction can endow the uniform Li nucleation/growth and high Li utilization efficiency. As a result, the achieved modified Li metal manifests high Coulombic efficiency, ultrahigh rate performance (5 mA cm −2 ), and ultra‐long lifespan cycling durability (7975 cycles). Importantly, the established Li|LiFePO 4 cells exhibit long‐term cycling durability over 600 cycles at 1 C with an ultralow decay rate of ca . 0.017% per cycle. Moreover, the Li|LiCoO 2 pouch cells with ultrahigh areal capacity of ca . 3.89 mAh cm −2 also exhibit extraordinarily prolonged cycling performance with excellent capacity retention despite extremely harsh cycling conditions of low negative‐to‐positive‐capacity (N/P) ratio of ca . 1.7 and lean electrolyte of ca . 4.9 g Ah −1 . This work enlightens a facile and effective avenue toward highly stable Li metal anode toward reliable practicability.

Tailoring Layered-Double-Hydroxide Nanostructures toward Long-Lifespan and Fast Kinetics Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

ACS Applied Energy Materials (2021)

Binbin Yang Shuixin Xia Hao Sun Xun Zhang Yuepeng Pang

Lithium–sulfur batteries show a promising prospect as high-energy-storage devices for the ultrahigh capacity and low cost. Nevertheless, their practical usage is blocked by severe issues such as the serious lithium polysulfide (LiPS) shuttle, sluggish redox kinetics, and dendritic Li growth, resulting in fast cell capacity decay and short cycle life. Here, robust layered-double-hydroxide ultrathin nanosheet (LUN)-decorated Celgard separators have rationally been achieved via tailoring layered-double-hydroxide nanostructures. The binder-free LUN coating facilitates effective LiPS anchoring, fast LiPS redox conversion kinetics, as well as uniform metallic Li electrodeposition. Therefore, the Li symmetric cells reveal exceptionally long-lifespan stability over 3000 cycles at 10 mA cm–2 with smooth, compact, and dendrite-free Li deposition. Importantly, the lithium–sulfur battery can cycle stably with an extremely low fading rate (∼0.029% per cycle) over ∼1000 cycles at 1 C. This work provides a facile and large-scale strategy, paving the way for lithium–sulfur batteries toward practical application.
