Materials Data on H11NF8 by Materials Project

Abstract

NH4H7F8 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four ammonium molecules and four H7F8 clusters. In each H7F8 cluster, there are seven inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.06 Å) and one longer (1.27 Å) H–F bond length. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (0.98 Å) and one longer (1.51 Å) H–F bond length. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (0.97 Å) and one longer (1.52 Å) H–F bond length. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.36 Å) H–F bond length. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.00 Å) and one longer (1.43 Å) H–F bond length. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (0.98 Å) and one longer (1.50 Å) H–F bond length. In the seventh H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two F1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.01 Å) and one longer (1.40 Å) H–F bond length. There are eight inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three H1+ atoms. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two H1+ atoms. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two H1+ atoms. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one H1+ atom. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two H1+ atoms. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one H1+ atom. In the seventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two H1+ atoms. In the eighth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one H1+ atom.

Cyclic moisture reactivation of calcium sorbents for long duration thermochemical energy storage

The transition to a flexible and reliable energy infrastructure, using electro-thermal energy generation technologies such as geothermal, concentrated solar power, and nuclear, usually demands simultaneous advancement of thermal energy storage (TES) to support on-demand electricity generation and industrial applications while mitigating the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and power outages from direct energy generation. Among TES technologies, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) based on calcium looping emerges as a compelling high-power energy storage candidate due to its high reaction enthalpy, compatibility with elevated operating temperatures, and abundance of low-cost materials. However, the long-term durability of calcium-based sorbents for TCES is hindered by surface sintering and particle aggregation, leading to performance degradation over repeated thermal cycles. This study explores a moisture hydration-based strategy to regenerate a degraded calcium sorbent and mitigate performance degradation for long duration TCES. The addition of moisture transforms calcium oxide into calcium hydroxide and produces intercalation water layers, associated with a regenerated surface area and reduced calcium oxide crystallite size. Both these effects are beneficial in restoring the sorbents' reactivity for carbonization. Additionally, an optimized hydration-assisted reactivation protocol balances the recovered energy storage capacity with heating penalty required for moisture removal from hydrated samples, resulting in an enhanced energy storage capacity up to 176% compared to benchmark sorbents that undergo cycling without reactivation after 60 cycles. In conclusion, these results highlight the potential of hydration-assisted reactivation to enhance the long-term performance of TCES, providing an effective pathway to advancing electro-thermal storage technologies.
