Materials Data on Na2La2PtO6 by Materials Project

Abstract

Na2La2PtO6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NaO6 pentagonal pyramids that share faces with two equivalent PtO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.42 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.43 Å. In the third Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.91 Å. There are three inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.38–2.90 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.64 Å. In the third La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.72 Å. Pt4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form PtO6 octahedra that share a faceface with one NaO6 pentagonal pyramid. There are a spread of Pt–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.09 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Na1+, three La3+, and one Pt4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Na1+, three La3+, and one Pt4+ atom to form distorted ONa2La3Pt octahedra that share corners with seven ONa2La3Pt octahedra, edges with four ONa3La2Pt octahedra, and faces with three ONa2La3Pt octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–64°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Na1+, two La3+, and one Pt4+ atom to form distorted ONa3La2Pt octahedra that share corners with ten ONa2La3Pt octahedra, edges with four ONa3La2Pt octahedra, and faces with two ONa3La2Pt octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–58°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Na1+, three La3+, and one Pt4+ atom to form distorted ONa2La3Pt octahedra that share corners with ten ONa2La3Pt octahedra, edges with four ONa3La2Pt octahedra, and faces with two ONa3La2Pt octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–56°. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Na1+, two La3+, and one Pt4+ atom to form distorted ONa3La2Pt octahedra that share corners with seven ONa2La3Pt octahedra, edges with four ONa2La3Pt octahedra, and faces with three ONa3La2Pt octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–64°. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Na1+, three La3+, and one Pt4+ 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.
