Multi-modal characterization methods of solid-electrolyte interphase in silicon-graphite composite electrodes

Composite silicon-graphite (Si-Gr) anodes can improve battery energy density, due to Si's high gravimetric capacity, while mitigating mechanical degradation of the anode and solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) caused by Si volumetric expansion. Optimizing these anodes is challenging, in part due to difficulty characterizing the SEI structure and composition. In this work, we present multi-modal characterization of the SEI on composite Si-Gr anodes to relate SEI chemical composition and structure to functional properties. Discrepancies in elemental concentrations from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) are attributed to varying information depth and lateral resolution of the individual probes. However, by combining quantitative composition information with spatially resolved element mapping from scanning transmission electron microscopy, EDS, and electron energy loss spectroscopy, a holistic picture of the SEI emerges. We observe the bilayer SEI structure and a direct correlation between elemental Li and F, suggesting that most Li in the SEI exists as lithium fluoride (LiF). Further, LiF concentration is directly proportional to the maximum SEI resistivity, as determined by scanning spreading resistance microscopy. Lastly, there is an inverse relationship between lithium carbonate and LiF concentration in the SEI, providing insight into the detailed chemistry of SEI formation and evolution.

Machine learning predictions of diffusion in bulk and confined ionic liquids using simple descriptors

Ionic liquids have many intriguing properties and widespread applications such as separations and energy storage. However, ionic liquids are complex fluids and predicting their behavior is difficult, particularly in confined environments. We introduce fast and computationally efficient machine learning (ML) models that can predict diffusion coefficients and ionic conductivity of bulk and nanoconfined ionic liquids over a wide temperature range (350–500 K). The ML models are trained on molecular dynamics simulation data for 29 unique ionic liquids as bulk fluids and confined in graphite slit pores. This model is based on simple physical descriptors of the cations and anions such as molecular weight and surface area. Here, we also demonstrate that accurate results can be obtained using only descriptors derived from SMILES (simplified molecular-input line-entry system) codes for the ions with minimal computational effort. This offers a fast and efficient method for estimating diffusion and conductivity of nanoconfined ionic liquids at various temperatures without the need for expensive molecular dynamics simulations.

Equibiaxial Flexure Strength of a Superfine-Grained Nuclear Graphite

The strength of advanced graphite is reported in accordance with ASTM D7846-16 using a two-parameter Weibull distribution for uniaxial strength testing. The rule of thumb for Weibull distributions is to use a minimum of 30 strength measurements to have a high level of confidence in the Weibull characteristic strength and the Weibull modulus. These large sample sets for statistical confidence are easily obtained for as-manufactured graphite, but determination of the Weibull two-factor parameters on graphite that has been exposed to neutron irradiation is nearly impossible due to irradiation testing restraints on specimen size and space limitations in test reactors for the accommodation of specimens. These restrictions have resulted in irradiation programs that use sub-sized specimens to measure uniaxial strength change, but the specimen geometries still hinder the number of replicate specimens for each irradiation condition. In contrast, this work used an advanced ceramic standard, ASTM C1499-05, as the foundation for equibiaxial strength testing of a superfine-grained nuclear graphite to investigate the irradiation-induced strength change and any changes to the two-parameter Weibull distribution. The goal was to investigate the effect of specimen size on the two-parameter Weibull distribution parameters in support of the small specimens and geometry desired for irradiation. A study of the effect of a reduced sample population was also undertaken to investigate the reliability of using the two-parameter Weibull distribution to study changes to the materials properties caused by neutron irradiation damage. The results of this work suggest that these equibiaxial specimens would be ideal for statistically significant studies of the effects of irradiation on the Weibull characteristic strength (but not the modulus) and for providing a method for surveillance specimen campaigns for future operating commercial reactors.

Robust Solar Receivers Using MAX Phase Materials

This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy under the Solar Energy Technologies Office Award Number 35928. The objective of the proposed effort was to develop and optimize additive manufacturing technologies for low-cost fabrication of high-temperature receivers using MAX phase-based materials (Ti 3 SiC 2 and Ti 3 AlC 2 ). MAX phase materials are a group of ternary metal carbides and nitrides where M stands for an early transition metal element, A is a group 13–16 element, and X is C and/or N. In Phase 1, the binder jetting additive manufacturing process was used to synthesize and characterize the Ti 3 SiC 2 MAX phase material. The typical process involved first producing a TiC preform using binder jetting followed by infiltration of the preform with silicon melt to form Ti 3 SiC 2 in situ. The reaction-infiltrated samples showed formation of MAX phase in the sample core; however, the surface showed cracking. Various process conditions—cooling rates, hold times, Si proportion, etc.—were varied to minimize the surface cracking. The fabricated MAX phase core was characterized by microstructure analysis and evaluations of mechanical properties such as hardness and thermal shock. In Phase 2, the focus included fabrication of Ti 3 SiC 2 MAX phase materials by spark plasma sintering (SPS) and synthesis of Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phase materials by the Al melt infiltration process. It is expected that Al infiltration will not cause sample cracking, since Al does not expand during solidification. In addition, other processing approaches were investigated to fabricate the MAX phase materials, such as SPS with a graphite bedding approach for producing short-length Ti 3 AlC 2 MAX phase tubes for demonstration of prototypical Concentrating Solar Power receiver tubes. Fabricated samples underwent thermo-mechanical testing to validate the materials for the solar receiver application at temperatures >1000°C. In Phase 3, the effort focused on the development and optimization of the Ti-Al-C MAX phase composite material using the Al melt infiltration approach. We started with optimization of precursor powders and making preform structures by either pressing them in a die or using the binder jetting additive manufacturing process followed by Al melt infiltration. In addition, we investigated the formation of preform structures by cold isostatic pressing followed by Al melt infiltration for making Ti-Al-C MAX phase composite. Thermo-mechanical characterizations, such as creep, strength, and thermal shock, were conducted to establish the structures’ performance.

Enabling high rate capability, low internal resistance, and excellent cyclability for vanadium redox flow batteries utilizing ultrafast laser-structured graphite felt

The electrochemical performance of vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) was enhanced via laser-patterned graphite felt (GF) electrodes. The laser-structured GF electrodes engineered via preparing a series of well-ordered microscopic channel structures with an average width of 200 μm, creating a three-dimensional carbon framework. The ultrafast laser patterning increased the porosity by 10%, as compared to pristine electrode. The analysis of the overpotential distribution using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy revealed that the electrode polarization involving charge transfer and diffusion resistance is strongly alleviated with the aid of carbon micro-perforation. The advanced design of laser-structured GF electrode also exhibits high rate capability, low internal resistance, and excellent cyclability. The improved performance was attributed to the synergistic effect involving (i) high electrochemically active surface area for rapid electrochemical reactions (i.e., V(II)/V(III) and V(IV)/V(V) redox couples) and (ii) excellent transport properties for facile electron/ion/species transport. The micro-scale channels created with the laser-ablation technique act as capillary structures and enabled homogeneous and rapid wetting of GF electrodes as formulated with the classical Washburn equation. The VRFB equipped with the laser-structured GF electrodes delivered a high discharge capacity with exceptional capacity retention upon extended cycling (>84.9%). In conclusion, accordingly, the design of laser-structured electrode paves the pathway towards finely tuning the electrode internal microstructure for improved cyclability, durability, and capacity retention in various electrochemical energy storage/conversion devices (e.g. all-vanadium redox flow batteries).

Graphitized Biocarbon Derived from Hydrothermally Liquefied Low-Ash Corn Stover

Graphitized biocarbon can be utilized for energy storage applications such as supercapacitors. The scientific community have geared their attention to obtain such value-added product from abundantly available and low-cost biomass feedstock agricultural residues such as corn stover. Lignocellulosic components embedded within the cell wall of biomass substrates can provide a fine template for enhanced ion storage, transport, and rate capabilities, desirable for electrochemical storage. Presented is the utilization of homogenized low ash content corn stover milled and sieved to desired specifications, which underwent hydrothermal liquefaction in the presence of Ni-based catalytic salts at 275 o C. The hydrochar obtained by solid residue extracted from the reaction slurry was washed to acid neutral and subjected to catalytic activation using ZnCl 2 , followed by thermal annealing at 400 o C for morphological and pore size enhancement of the resulting biochar. Carbonization was performed on acid neutralized hydrochar at 850 °C to further enhance pore structures and increase graphitization for improved conductivity. Catalytic materials exhibited a specific capacitance of 316 F g -1 and held a 100% retention beyond 10,000 cycles. BET, Raman, XRD, cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry, and EIS are discussed herein.

Computational investigation of hydrogen-induced phonon changes in carbon fiber

Optical vibrational spectroscopy has shown promise as a noninvasive means of monitoring the mechanical properties of carbon fiber (CF), which is increasingly used for industrial and consumer purposes. However, interpretation of optical vibrational spectra for solid materials is inferential, particularly when defects are present. Because inelastic neutron scattering (INS) spectroscopy is not subject to selection rules, the full vibrational spectra can be measured. And, identifying correlations between INS features and tensile properties can assist in the interpretation of spectra from more commonly used optical vibrational spectroscopic techniques, such as Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Recent INS experiments on high-performance commercial carbon fibers showed features near 900 and 1100 cm –1 in addition to a broad feature near 3000 cm –1 that increased in intensity with decreasing tensile strength. These features were assigned to hydrogen defects. Here, we use density functional theory to simulate the INS spectra of several hydrogen defect geometries in graphite as a model for carbon fiber structure units, confirming the experimental assignment of these peaks to hydrogen modes and providing insights into the structure and lattice dynamics of the defects.

Quantifying the Entropy and Enthalpy of Insertion Materials for Battery Applications Via the Multi-Species, Multi-Reaction Model

The entropy coefficient of a battery cell is the property that governs the amount of reversible heat that is generated during operation. In this work, we propose an extension of the Multi-Species, Multi-Reaction (MSMR) model to capture the entropy coefficient of a large format lithium-ion battery cell. We utilize the hybridized time-frequency domain analysis (HTFDA) method using a multi-functional calorimeter to probe the entropy coefficient of a large format pouch type lithium-ion battery with a NMC 811 cathode and a graphite anode. The measured entropy coefficient profile of the battery cell is deconvoluted into an entropy coefficient for each active material, which is then estimated using an extension of the MSMR model. Finally, we extend the entropy of a material to individual entropy for each gallery as treated by the model.

Engineering Atomically Dispersed FeN 4 Active Sites for CO 2 Electroreduction

Atomically dispersed FeN 4 active sites have exhibited exceptional catalytic activity and selectivity for the electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) to CO. However, the understanding behind the intrinsic and morphological factors contributing to the catalytic properties of FeN 4 sites is still lacking. By using a Fe-N-C model catalyst derived from the ZIF-8, we deconvoluted three key morphological and structural elements of FeN 4 sites, including particle sizes of catalysts, Fe content, and Fe-N bond structures. Furthermore, their respective impacts on the CO2RR were comprehensively elucidated. Engineering the particle size and Fe doping is critical to control extrinsic morphological factors of FeN 4 sites for optimal porosity, electrochemically active surface areas, and the graphitization of the carbon support. In contrast, the intrinsic activity of FeN 4 sites was only tunable by varying thermal activation temperatures during the formation of FeN 4 sites, which impacted the length of the Fe-N bonds and the local strains. The structural evolution of Fe-N bonds was examined at the atomic level. First-principles calculations further elucidated the origin of intrinsic activity improvement associated with the optimal local strain of the Fe-N bond.

Shedding Light on the Vibrational Signatures in Halogen‐Bonded Graphitic Carbon Nitride Building Blocks

Abstract The relative contributions of halogen and hydrogen bonding to the interaction between graphitic carbon nitride monomers and halogen bond (XB) donors containing C−X and C≡C bonds were evaluated using computational vibrational spectroscopy. Conventional probes into select vibrational stretching frequencies can often lead to disconnected results. To elucidate this behavior, local mode analyses were performed on the XB donors and complexes identified previously at the M06‐2X/aVDZ‐PP level of theory. Due to coupling between low and high energy C−X vibrations, the C≡C stretch is deemed a better candidate when analyzing XB complex properties or detecting XB formation. The local force constants support this conclusion, as the C≡C values correlate much better with the σ ‐hole magnitude than their C−X counterparts. The intermolecular local stretching force constants were also assessed, and it was found that attractive forces other than halogen bonding play a supporting role in complex formation.

SiOC coatings on yttria stabilized zirconia microspheres using a fluidized bed coating process

In this study, defect-free SiOC coatings were prepared on yttria stabilized zirconia (YSZ) microspheres by a fluidized bed coating process. Effects of the rheological properties of the coating solution on the coating process were elucidated. An impact regime diagram was constructed, which demonstrated that the coating mechanisms were collision/impact. During the fluidized bed coating, longer spouted time resulted in wider dispersion, longer residence time, and more circulatory motion of particles; the fluid distributed more uniformly throughout the column, as demonstrated in our Multiphase Flow with Interface eXchange (MFiX) simulations. Two-step pyrolysis in Ar achieved complete coating layers, which were comprised of SiOC, SiO 2 , SiC, and graphite. The two stage mass loss during the pyrolysis corresponded to simultaneous reactions due to depolymerization and hydrocarbon loss from 400 to 600°C. Carbon cluster size in the pyrolyzed samples was calculated to be 25 ± 2 Å. In conclusion, this work provides a new method for producing SiOC coatings on micron spheres, with nuclear TRISO fuel particles as the application.

Mechanical Properties of Permanent Foaming Fixatives for Deactivation and Decommissioning Activities

DOE-EM have identified an operational requirement for a fixative that can immobilize and/or encapsulate residual contamination in 3D void volumes (pipes, gloveboxes, waste containers, etc.) during D and D activities. Failure to safely and effectively immobilize residual contamination can: Put workers at risk, Contaminate the public and environment, Drive up operational costs. Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) polyurethane (PU) foams is one possible solution and is currently being investigated in collaboration with Savannah River National Lab (SRNL). Mechanical property testing will dictate how well PU foams can withstand physical stressors outlined in safety documents while immobilizing residual contamination. Results can provide a performance criteria for Section 5 of ASTM E3191: Standard Specification for Permanent Foaming Fixatives Used to Mitigate Spread of Radioactive Contamination. Polyurethanes consists of repeating units of urethanes which are produced from an exothermic reaction between a polyol (an alcohol with two or more hydroxyl groups in a molecule) and an isocyanate [2]. PUs consists of 3D cells that are formed by a blowing agent which is normally water. Water interacting with the isocyanate creates carbon dioxide and urea which contributes to cells' growth and expansion. The cross-linking between the polyol and isocyanate solidify the cell faces and walls. Micro scale properties that can influence mechanical properties include: Relative density (ratio between density of cellular material and density of the solid of which the cell walls are made of). Cells connectivity between edges and faces, and number of cells contact neighbors [3]. Whether a foam is open-celled or closed-celled. Closed-celled foams have a thin membrane that encloses each cell which can contribute to the stiffness of the foam. Incorporating fillers in the PU matrix like carbon-based nanoparticles in the form of expandable graphite (EG) can increase the thermal and mechanical performance [4]. When exposed to heat, EG produces a char layer that prevents heat and oxygen transfer which is known as intumescing. Mechanical performance is dependent on amount of EG loading since the cell sizes are linearly dependent on it. Overall, the rigid foams (I-R2) proved superior. SEM Analysis: I-R2 had the most consistent spherical sizes (average cell diameter: 489 μm), which enhance the relative density the most [5]. Tensile Testing Results: I-R2 experienced the largest breaking load (103.65 lbf) and stress (289.42 psi). I-R2 also had a higher Young's Modulus compared to R1 (2.99 ksi to 2.09 ksi). Compression Testing Results: I-R2 had the highest stress at 80% deflection (360.67 psi), load (1387.48 lbf) and modulus (3.92 ksi)

Sulfurized Polyacrylonitrile (SPAN): Changes in Mechanical Properties during Electrochemical Lithiation

Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) is a promising material for stable lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries that can potentially satisfy the demand for high-density energy storage devices for electric vehicles (EVs). However, important physical and chemical properties of the SPAN cathode material are not yet well understood. For example, the SPAN mechanical behavior that depends on the structure and chemistry of the material generated during synthesis, and the mechanical response evolution during battery discharge have been scarcely investigated. This work addresses the effects of electrochemical lithiation on the SPAN mechanical integrity via uniaxial tensile loading tests using molecular dynamics with the ReaxFF potential. Here, we evaluate the volume expansion, Young’s modulus, yield strength, and ultimate tensile strength with increasing lithium contents. Our results show how the degree of graphitization of the carbonized skeleton impacts the SPAN ability to withstand the volume expansion-induced structural stresses upon lithiation. We describe the fracture mechanisms and find out a ductility loss with increasing lithium contents

AGC-4 As-Run Uncertainty Analysis

The concept of measuring neutron flux (or fluence rate) with activation foils has existed since the late 1940s and is a well-used methodology. Activation foils are selected for their unique isotopic cross sections that create reaction products with desirable properties: relatively simple radioactive decay scheme, measurable quantities of gamma-rays or betas, and half-lives appropriate for the irradiation and decay durations of the experiment. The activation materials, deemed flux wires, fluence wires, dosimeters, or flux foils, are fabricated to have a mass appropriate for the irradiation as well so the measurement using a radiation detector following the irradiation is sufficient but not overwhelming in terms of total activity. Activation measurement results are expressed in terms of reaction rate, which can then be used to “adjust” the neutron spectrum. The Advanced Graphite Creep (AGC)-4 experiment contained 26 flux wire packages, each containing an iron and a niobium wire inside a vanadium capsule. For all stackup positions, the value of fast to thermal neutrons is higher than expected, but the total neutron fluence is near the predicted value of ~2 x 1022 n/cm2. As compared to the predicted neutron spectrum, there are four takeaways in the results as compared to the predicted ATR irradiation: 1) Additional fast (fission) neutrons present, 2) Spectrum hardening due to temperature, 3) Spectrum hardening due to container attenuation, 4) Total neutron fluence is close to predicted values. Since the neutron energy spectrum is a key parameter when attributing neutron damage in materials, the adjusted energy-dependent spectrum and the total neutron fluence results from the dosimeters can be incorporated for future calculations.

Proximity Spin–Orbit Torque on a Two-Dimensional Magnet within van der Waals Heterostructure: Current-Driven Antiferromagnet-to-Ferromagnet Reversible Nonequilibrium Phase Transition in Bilayer CrI 3

The recently discovered two-dimensional magnetic insulator CrI 3 is an intriguing case for basic research and spintronic applications since it is a ferromagnet in the bulk but an antiferromagnet in bilayer form, with its magnetic ordering amenable to external manipulations. Using the first-principles quantum transport approach, we predict that injecting unpolarized charge current parallel to the interface of the bilayer-CrI 3 /monolayer-TaSe 2 van der Waals (vdW) heterostructure will induce spin–orbit torque and thereby drive the dynamics of magnetization on the first monolayer of CrI 3 in direct contact with TaSe 2 . By combining the calculated complex angular dependence of spin–orbit torque with the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation for classical dynamics of magnetization, we demonstrate that current pulses can switch the direction of magnetization on the first monolayer to become parallel to that of the second monolayer, thereby converting CrI 3 from antiferromagnet to ferromagnet while not requiring any external magnetic field. We explain the mechanism of this reversible current-driven nonequilibrium phase transition by showing that first monolayer of CrI 3 carries current due to evanescent wave functions injected by metallic transition metal dichalcogenide TaSe 2 , while concurrently acquiring strong spin–orbit coupling via such a proximity effect, whereas the second monolayer of CrI 3 remains insulating. Furthermore, the transition can be detected by passing vertical read current through the vdW heterostructure, encapsulated by a bilayer of hexagonal boron nitride and sandwiched between graphite electrodes, where we find a tunneling magnetoresistance of ≃240%.

Functionalization of Electrodes with Tunable [EMIM] x [Cl] x +1 – Ionic Liquid Clusters for Electrochemical Separations

Functionalization of electrodes with clusters of hydrophobic molecules may improve the energy efficiency and selectivity of electrochemical separations by modulating the desolvation process occurring at the interface. Ionic liquids (IL), which have a broad range of compositions and properties, are potential candidates for controlling the transport, desolvation, and adsorption of target ions at electrochemical interfaces. We report a joint experimental and theoretical investigation of the structure, stability, and selective adsorption properties of the IL clusters 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride [EMIM] x [Cl] x+1 - (x = 1 – 10) and demonstrate their ability to adsorb and separate ions from solution. The structure and stability of the IL clusters are determined experimentally using high-mass-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectrometry, collision-induced dissociation, and negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy. Global optimization theory and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations provide molecular-level insight into the bonding and structural fluxionality of these species. Ion soft landing is used to selectively functionalize the surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) working electrodes with [EMIM] 1 [Cl] 2 - , [EMIM] 3 [Cl] 4 - , and [EMIM] 5 [Cl] 6 - clusters. Kelvin probe microscopy provides insight into the relative stability of the clusters on HOPG and their effect on the work function of IL-functionalized electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry measurements reveal irreversible adsorption of Fe(CN) 6 4-/3- anions during redox cycling, while electrochemical impedance spectroscopy indicates a substantial decrease in the electron transfer resistance of the IL-functionalized electrodes due to adsorption of Fe(CN) 6 4-/3- . Overall, our findings demonstrate that IL clusters with different size and stoichiometry may be used to increase the efficiency of electrochemical separations, opening new horizons in selective electrode functionalization.

Interfacial Issues and Modification of Solid Electrolyte Interphase for Li Metal Anode in Liquid and Solid Electrolytes

Abstract The high energy density required for the next generation of lithium batteries will likely be enabled by a shift toward lithium metal anode from the conventional intercalation‐based anode such as graphite. However, several critical challenges for Li metal originate from its highly reactive nature and the hostless reaction of deposition and stripping impede the practical use of Li metal as an anode. The role of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is very important for the Li metal anode where the SEI must protect the dynamically changing surface of the Li metal. Since the SEI‐generating reaction mechanisms for the two different electrolyte systems, liquid and solid, are considerably different, the SEI layers formed between the Li metal and the electrolytes in the two electrolyte systems have substantially different properties, causing different interfacial issues. Inhibition of the interfacial problems requires different strategies to reinforce the SEI layer for each of the electrolyte systems. However, the differences in the two electrolyte systems have not been clearly compared in the prior literature. In this report, the interfacial issues for the two different electrolyte systems are compared and different strategies for SEI modification are provided to overcome the issues.
