Improved Electroformed Structural Copper and Copper Alloys

Electroforming offers a superior means for fabricating internally cooled heat exchangers and structures subjected to thermal environments. Copper is deposited from many such applications because of the good thermal conductivity. It suffers from mediocre yield strength as a structural material and loses mechanical strength at intermediate temperatures. Mechanical properties similar to those of electroformed nickel are desired. Phase 1 examined innovative means to improve deposited copper structural performance. Yield strengths as high as 483 MPa (70 ksi) were obtained with useful ductility while retaining a high level of purity essential to good thermal conductivity. Phase 2 represents a program to explore new additive combinations in copper electrolytes to produce a more fine, equiaxed grain which can be thermally stabilized by other techniques such as alloying in modest degrees and dispersion strengthening. Evaluation of new technology - such as the codeposition of fullerness (diamond-like) particles were made to enhance thermal conductivity in low alloys. A test fire quality tube-bundle engine was fabricated using these copper property improvement concepts to show the superiority of the new coppers and fabrications methods over competitive technologies such as brazing and plasma deposition.

Direct Electrolysis of Molten Lunar Regolith for the Production of Oxygen and Metals on the Moon

When considering the construction of a lunar base, the high cost ($ 100,000 a kilogram) of transporting materials to the surface of the moon is a significant barrier. Therefore in-situ resource utilization will be a key component of any lunar mission. Oxygen gas is a key resource, abundant on earth and absent on the moon. If oxygen could be produced on the moon, this provides a dual benefit. Not only does it no longer need to be transported to the surface for breathing purposes; it can also be used as a fuel oxidizer to support transportation of crew and other materials more cheaply between the surface of the moon, and lower earth orbit (approximately $20,000/kg). To this end a stable, robust (lightly manned) system is required to produce oxygen from lunar resources. Herein, we investigate the feasibility of producing oxygen, which makes up almost half of the weight of the moon by direct electrolysis of the molten lunar regolith thus achieving the generation of usable oxygen gas while producing primarily iron and silicon at the cathode from the tightly bound oxides. The silicate mixture (with compositions and mechanical properties corresponding to that of lunar regolith) is melted at temperatures near 1600 C. With an inert anode and suitable cathode, direct electrolysis (no supporting electrolyte) of the molten silicate is carried out, resulting in production of molten metallic products at the cathode and oxygen gas at the anode. The effect of anode material, sweep rate, and electrolyte composition on the electrochemical behavior was investigated and implications for scale-up are considered. The activity and stability of the candidate anode materials as well as the effect of the electrolyte composition were determined. Additionally, ex-situ capture and analysis of the anode gas to calculate the current efficiency under different voltages, currents and melt chemistries was carried out.

Ion Transport and Crystal Rotation in Plastic Crystal Electrolytes Under Applied Electric Fields

Organic ionic plastic crystal electrolytes, containing a plastic crystal and lithium salt, offer a potential balance between mechanical and electrochemical properties for solid state lithium-ion battery electrolytes. These electrolytes contain multiple mobile ionic species (three or four), resulting in complex transport mechanisms which have not yet been established. Plastic crystals are defined by long-range positional order and short-range rotational disorder. It is therefore necessary to quantify changes in the local crystal structure of the electrolyte as current flows through it. Herein, we examine the electrochemical properties of pyrrolidinium-based plastic crystal electrolytes containing lithium salt and zwitterion additives, including measurements of current fraction and limiting current. We obtain species-specific insight into electrolyte transport using pulsed-field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and find that, while the zwitterion additive increases ionic conductivity, it decreases lithium diffusivity with respect to other ionic components. With operando spatiotemporally resolved wide-angle X-ray scattering we observe location-specific crystal rotations due to the passage of ionic current. In conclusion, we posit that reducing energy dissipation due to rotation is essential for using plastic crystal electrolytes in practical applications.

Method—Using Microelectrodes to Explore Solid Polymer Electrolytes

Solid polymer electrolytes are an emerging technology in electrochemistry driven by their use in energy applications such as fuel cells, electrolyzers, and solid-state batteries. Compared to traditional liquid electrolytes, solid polymer electrolytes provide safer, cheaper, and potentially improved device performance. However, there is a lack of standard experimental methods for studying solid electrolytes. Microelectrodes have inherent benefits capable of filling this experimental gap due primarily to their integration into model electrochemical cells with solid electrolytes that represent complex interfaces, enabling additional insight into reaction processes. In this tutorial review, we explore the use of microelectrodes to study solid polymer electrolytes, beginning with a brief history of the field including common experimental cell designs and their benefits and drawbacks. Methods of evaluating essential kinetic and mass-transport parameters are then examined. In addition, the key studies of the past 30 years utilizing microelectrode cells and solid polymer electrolytes are summarized, with important results highlighted and compared. Finally, future studies of solid polymer electrolytes with microelectrodes and potential new avenues of research are commented on.

Molecular Level Differences in Ionic Solvation and Transport Behavior in Ethylene Oxide-Based Homopolymer and Block Copolymer Electrolytes

Block copolymer electrolytes (BCE) such as polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) (SEO) blended with lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and composed of mechanically robust insulating and rubbery conducting nanodomains are promising solid-state electrolytes for Li batteries. Here, we compare ionic solvation, association, distribution, and conductivity in SEO-LiTFSI BCEs and their homopolymer PEO-LiTFSI analogs toward a fundamental understanding of the maximum in conductivity and transport mechanisms as a function of salt concentration. Ionic conductivity measurements reveal that SEO-LiTFSI and PEO-LiTFSI exhibit similar behaviors up to a Li/EO ratio of 1/12, where roughly half of the available solvation sites in the system are filled, and conductivity is maximized. As the Li/EO ratios increase to 1/5 the conductivity, of the PEO-LiTFSI drops nearly 3-fold, while the conductivity of SEO-LiTFSI remains constant. FTIR spectroscopy reveals that additional Li cations in the homopolymer electrolyte are complexed by additional EO units when the Li/EO ratio exceeds 1/12, while in the BCE, the proportion of complexed and uncomplexed EO units remains constant; Raman spectroscopy data at the same concentrations show that Li cations in the SEO-LiTFSI samples tend to coordinate more to their counteranions. Atomistic-scale molecular dynamics simulations corroborate these results and further show that associated ions tend to segregate to the SEO-LiTFSI domain interfaces. The opportunity for "excess" salt to be sequestered at BCE interfaces results in the retention of an optimum ratio of uncompleted and complexed PEO solvation sites in the middle of the conductive nanodomains of the BCE and maximized conductivity over a broad range of salt concentrations.

Extending Calendar Life of Si-Based Lithium-Ion Batteries by a Localized High Concentration Electrolyte

Silicon (Si) is one of the most promising anode materials for the next generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Although significant progresses have been made on the cycle life of Si-based LIBs, their calendar-life is still far less than those required for electrical vehicle applications. Here, in this work, the fundamental mechanisms behind the limited calendar life of Si-LIBs have been investigated. It is found that the unstable interphase layers formed on electrodes during the formation/cycling of batteries using conventional electrolyte with fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) additive are responsible for the rapid impedance-increase of Si-LIBs during storage at elevated temperature (55°C). By using an FEC-free localized high concentration electrolyte (lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide:ethyl propionate:ethylene carbonate:1,1,2,2-tetrafluoroethyl-2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl ether (1:2.8:0.2:1 by mol.) with 1 wt.% lithium difluorophosphate), stable interphase layers formed on electrodes can effectively block the crosstalk between cathode and anode, minimize the impedance increase of Si||LiNi 0.6 Mn 0.2 Co 0.2 (NMC622) batteries during storage at elevated temperature (55°C), therefore largely improve their calendar life. Si||NMC622 batteries using this electrolyte also demonstrated a high-capacity retention of ~92.4% after 500 cycles at 45°C with well-preserved electrode structure. Hence, this novel electrolyte is a good candidate to extend the cycling life and calendar life of Si-LIBs.

Designing High‐Donicity Anions for Rechargeable Potassium Superoxide/Peroxide Batteries

Abstract A battery cathode based on the superoxide/peroxide redox not only inherits the advantage of oxygen (O 2 ) batteries in high capacities and low costs but also overcomes the disadvantages in O 2 storage, electrolyte evaporation, and anode deactivation due to O 2 crossover. Herein, we report an enhanced potassium superoxide (KO 2 )/peroxide (K 2 O 2 ) conversion by adopting a high‐donicity anion additive in the ether‐based electrolyte. Such an anion was synthesized via a “Solvent‐in‐Anion” strategy and validated to enhance the electron donicity of the electrolyte. The use of high‐donicity anion could lead to enhanced KO 2 utilization (≈90.2 %) by retarding electrode passivation and allow the full charging back of K 2 O 2 through the solution‐mediated pathway without electrocatalysts. No apparent cell degradation is observed during the first 120 cycles by controlling the reversible depth‐of‐discharge capacity at 292 mAh g −1 within an O 2 ‐free region. The K−KO 2 cell delivers a high energy efficiency (>84.4 %) and a lifespan of over 1440 hours.

Enabling High-Temperature and High-Voltage Lithium-Ion Battery Performance through a Novel Cathode Surface-Targeted Additive

We report lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are being used in locations and applications never imagined when they were first conceived. To enable this broad range of applications, it has become necessary for LIBs to be stable to an ever broader range of conditions, including temperature and energy. Unfortunately, while negative electrodes have received a great deal of focus in electrolyte development, stabilization of positive electrodes remains an elusive target. Here, we report a novel additive that shows the ability to protect positive electrodes against elevated temperatures and voltages. This additive can be used in small quantities, and its targeted behavior allows it to remain functional in complex electrolyte packages. This can prove an effective approach to targeting specific aspects of cell performance.

Effect of graphitic anode surface functionalization on the structure and dynamics of electrolytes at the interface

Surface termination on a graphitic surface and the type of electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) play an important part in determining the structure, composition, and thus, the quality of the emergent solid electrolyte interphase. In this paper, we analyze the structure and dynamics of electrolyte molecules in multi-component electrolyte with varying species compositions combinatorially paired with four different graphitic surfaces terminated with hydrogen, hydroxyl, carbonyl, and carboxyl to explore the interplay between surface chemistry and electrolyte dynamics at electrode/electrolyte interfaces. Addition of dimethyl carbonate and fluoroethylene carbonate brought substantial changes in the ethylene carbonate (EC) and LiPF6 surface population density for hydroxyl and carbonyl surfaces. Strong density oscillation and drastic slowing of the dynamics of the electrolyte molecules at the interface are reported for all the systems. While these observations are universal, carboxyl surfaces have the strongest local and long-range effects. Characterization of the average dipole direction at the interface shows strong orientational preferences of ethylene carbonate molecules. EC molecules are preferred to be oriented either almost parallel or perpendicular to the hydroxyl surface, are tilted between parallel and perpendicular with a higher angle of incidence of the dipole vs surface normal on the carbonyl surface than on the hydroxyl surface, and are oriented perpendicularly against the carboxyl surface. These differences highlight the significant effect of graphite surface termination on the dynamics of the electrolytes and provide insight into the complex interplays between electrolyte species and graphite anode in LIBs.

Room-Temperature Calcium Plating and Stripping Using a Perfluoroalkoxyaluminate Anion Electrolyte

Multivalent ion chemistries, like Ca 2+ , used in energy storage boast the potential to utilize solid metallic anodes and provide high volumetric energy density. The promise of such systems relies on the ability to incorporate high-voltage cathode materials while sustaining robust plating and stripping at the anode. These processes are dependent on an electrochemically stable electrolyte for ion transport and storage. In this work, we report an addition to the limited pool of nonaqueous electrolytes capable of plating and stripping calcium at room temperature. The synthesis and structural properties of calcium tetrakis(perfluoro-tert-butoxy) aluminate (Ca[TPFA] 2 ) are described along with the electrochemical performance during plating and stripping (up to 55% Coulombic efficiency) and a proof of concept for full cell viability with a CuS cathode material. X-ray experiments were used to study both the bulk solvation structure around calcium and possible decomposition pathways of the weakly coordinating TPFA anion.

Tuning the solvation structure with salts for stable sodium-metal batteries

Sodium-metal batteries are an appealing, sustainable, low-cost alternative to lithium metal batteries due to the high abundance and theoretical specific capacity (1,165 mA h g -1 ) of sodium. However, the poor compatibility of the electrolyte with the cathode and anode leads to unstable electrode-electrolyte interphases. Here we introduce the concept of using a salt as a diluent, which enables the use of a single non-flammable solvent, such as trimethyl phosphate. By using sodium nitrate (NaNO 3 ) salt as a model diluent, we report a 1.1 M NaFSI-NaNO 3 -trimethyl phosphate electrolyte that forms a stable interface with sodium-metal anode. In addition, the formation of robust cathode-electrolyte interphases on Na(Ni 0.3 Fe 0.4 Mn 0.3 )O 2 cathode facilitates smooth phase transitions, thus leading to stable cycle life with a capacity retention of 80% over 500 cycles at C/5 rate in Na||Na(Ni 0.3 Fe 0.4 Mn 0.3 )O 2 cells. Further, the work demonstrates a promising approach towards the development of safe, low-cost, sustainable high-performance sodium-metal batteries. Electrolytes with non-flammable solvents are important for the safe operation of sodium-metal batteries. Here the authors report an electrolyte engineering approach, employing salts as a diluent, to enhance interfacial stability and overall safety.

Interlayer Design for Halide Electrolytes in All‐Solid‐State Lithium Metal Batteries

Abstract All‐solid‐state lithium‐metal batteries (ASSLMBs) are promising for transportation electrification due to their superior safety and high energy density. Lithium halide electrolytes provide excellent processing flexibility, high ionic conductivity, and anodic stability (>4.1 V), making them highly compatible with high‐voltage cathodes, surpassing sulfide electrolytes (<2.1 V). Nevertheless, halide electrolytes suffer from low cathodic stability and form an electronically conductive interphase with lithium, resulting in a critical current density (CCD) of nearly zero. Herein, Li 3 YbCl 6 electrolytes are synthesized that are kinetically stable with lithium by forming an electronic insulating solid electrolyte interphase. Guided by critical overpotential criteria, a PI 3 interlayer is designed that transforms into Li 6 PI 3 upon contact with lithium, substantially reducing the interfacial resistance of Li 3 YbCl 6 against lithium to 34 Ω and achieving a high critical overpotential of 114 mV. By substituting Yb with Lu, Li 3 LuCl 6 electrolytes with Li 6 PI 3 interlayers reach a CCD of 1.0 mA cm −2 at a capacity of 1.0 mAh cm −2 , comparable to sulfide electrolytes but with higher oxidation stability. Additionally, Li 6 PI 3 enables stable cycling of Li//Li cells with Li 3 LuCl 6 electrolytes at 0.5 mA cm −2 for 400 cycles and maintains 86.5% capacity in Li//LiCoO 2 cells after 220 cycles at 30 °C, paving the way for high‐performance ASSLMBs.

Is Clean Hydrogen Production a Good Fit for Questa? (Final Economic Impact Results) [Slides]

The Village of Questa, New Mexico is aiming to become a regional clean energy hub with robust and diverse employment opportunities for the local community supported by the energy sector and by other businesses inspired or attracted by abundant clean energy, outdoor recreation, and cultural opportunities. A coalition of stakeholders in the Village of Questa, comprising the Village, Kit Carson Electric Cooperative (KCEC), Questa Economic Development Fund, and Chevron, is exploring options to develop hydrogen production facilities as an opportunity to create jobs, provide reliable clean energy, and utilize former mine resources. Questa is home to a molybdenum mine owned by Chevron that closed in 2014. Several residents in Questa and surrounding communities lost their jobs when the mine closed and transitioned from active operations into environmental remediation. Although remediation efforts have been ongoing since 2014 and are expected to continue for at least 16 more years, the number of jobs with Chevron is much smaller now than it was before the closure. Between available workforce, brownfield land, and water rights formerly supporting mine operations but now in a transition period, there are considerable local resources that could be directed toward clean energy generation. Questa's electricity supply is already 100% solar during daylight hours thanks to Kit Carson Electric Cooperative's (KCEC's) strategic decision-making and partnering over the last decade. Now, Questa, KCEC, and Chevron are exploring the potential costs and benefits of siting an electrolytic hydrogen production facility and additional solar photovoltaic (PV) capacity in Questa to further advance the region's clean energy economy. In this report, we estimated the potential economic impacts (i.e., jobs, value added, gross output, tax revenue) of constructing and operating a combined hydrogen (32 MW polymer electrolyte membrane electrolizer + 7.5 MW fuel cell) and solar facility (22.5 MW) in the Village of Questa, as well as the resulting economic spillovers to Taos County and the state of New Mexico. We employ an input-output model that leverages IMPLAN's economic data for the region complemented by construction and operating expenses estimated by NREL and feedback from the local coalition to evaluate the direct, indirect and induced effects of the project construction (transient impacts) and operation (more permanent impacts). Based on the area's average trade profile, feedback from the coalition and current market conditions, these projects are expected to support 487 full-time equivalent jobs during construction, generating $\$24$ million in income for those workers and $\$82$ million in local economic activity in the state. Of those jobs, 106 are expected to be construction sector jobs. These investments are also estimated to add $\$36.5$ million to New Mexico's gross state product (GSP). In the Village of Questa, we estimate 16 jobs will be supported in construction and transportation industries, generating $\$0.9$ million in earnings. In Taos County, the construction phase is expected to support 285 jobs primarily in construction and professional services, while manufacturing jobs dominate the results for the Rest of New Mexico. The Village is also estimated to receive $\$0.9$ million in tax revenue from the construction phase alone. Once in operation, the project continues to impact the state and Questa. Around 20 jobs (full-time equivalent for each year of operation) are supported across New Mexico, with approximately 11 directly employed in Questa by both facilities. The total annual local economic activity supported by ongoing operations is just over $\$1.3$ million/yr, generating $\$1.6$ million/yr in additional income in the state. Annual operations are estimated to add $\$2.1$ million to the state's GSP. The Village is expected to receive around $\$43,000$/yr in tax revenue. Impacts vary significantly depending on which businesses are supplying materials, equipment and services, and where construction workers reside. Choosing local suppliers will most benefit Questa and the New Mexico economy, adding up to 500 jobs during construction and 13 long-term jobs. Local and state governments may consider ways to incentivize local businesses in order to maximize economic benefits.
