Characterization and properties of controlled nucleation thermochemical deposited (CNTD) silicon carbide

The microstructure of controlled nucleation thermochemical deposition (CNTD) - SiC material was studied and the room temperature and high temperature bend strength and oxidation resistance was evaluated. Utilizing the CNTD process, ultrafine grained (0.01-0.1 mm) SiC was deposited on W - wires (0.5 mm diameter by 20 cm long) as substrates. The deposited SiC rods had superior surface smoothness and were without any macrocolumnar growth commonly found in conventional CVD material. At both room and high temperature (1200 - 1380 C), the CNTD - SiC exhibited bend strength approximately 200,000 psi (1380 MPa), several times higher than that of hot pressed, sintered, or CVD SiC. The excellent retention of strength at high temperature was attributed to the high purity and fine grain size of the SiC deposit and the apparent absence of grain growth at elevated temperatures. The rates of weight change for CNTD - SiC during oxidation were lower than for NC-203 (hot pressed SiC), higher than for GE's CVD - SiC, and considerably below those for HS-130 (hot pressed Si3N4). The high purity, fully dense, and stable grain size CNTD - SiC material shows potential for high temperature structural applications; however problem areas might include: scaling the process to make larger parts, deposition on removable substrates, and the possible residual tensile stress.

The Use of Tribocharging in the Electrostatic Beneficiation of Lunar Simulant

Any future lunar base and habitat must be constructed from strong dense materials in order to provide for thermal and radiation protection. Lunar soil may meet this need. Lunar regolith has high concentrations of aluminum, silicon, calcium, iron, sodium, and titanium oxides. Refinement or enrichment of specific minerals in the soil before it is chemically processed may be more desirable as it would reduce the size and energy requirements required to produce the virgin material and it may significantly reduce the process' complexity. Also, investigations into the potential production of breathable oxygen from oxidized mineral components are a major research initiative by NASA. In this study. the objective was to investigate the use of tribocharging to charge lunar simulants and pass them through a parallel plate separator to enrich different mineral fractions. This technique takes advantage of the high Lunar vacuum in which much higher voltages can be used on the separation plates than in air. Additionally, the Lunar g1avity, only being 1/6 that of Earth, allows the particles more separation time between the plates and therefore enhances separation. For the separation studies, two lunar stimulants were used. The first simulant was created in-house, labeled KSC-1. using commercially supplied (sieved to 325 mesh) materials, and was composed of 40 wt. % feldspar ((Na,K,Ca)AlSi3O8;SiO2), 40 wt. % olivine ((Mg,Fe)2SiO4), 10 wt. % ilmenite (FeTiO3). and 10 wt. % spodumene (LiAlSi2O6) (pyroxene). The advantage of the in-house mixture is that the composition can he varied to simulate different soil compositions from different areas on the moon. This simulant was used to show proof-of-concept using the designed separator in air. The second stimulant was JSC-1. used for the vacuum experiments. JSC-1 is principally basalts, containing phases of plagioclase. pyroxene. olivine, and ilmenite. The JSC-1 was sieved to provide a 50-75 micron size range to correlate with the mean grain size found on the moon's surface [1]. Four different materials were investigated for the triboelectrification process; aluminum, copper. stainless steel, and PTFE. These materials were selected because they offer a wide variation in work functions (aluminum 4.28 eV, copper 4.65 eV. stainless steel 5.04 eV, and PTFE 5.75 eV). The difference between the work function of each material and the simulant influences the charge obtained by the grains. Each simulant was analyzed before and after separation using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) to determine mineral surface composition. In addition. Raman spectroscopy was performed on the JSC-1 before and after separation in vacuum to determine the mineral composition. Charge-to-mass (Q/M) measurements were performed using a fluidizing bed in air and passing the simulant through a static mixer of a particular material and collecting it in a Faraday pail grounded through an electrometer. To measure the Q/M in vacuum, a special device was constructed consisting of a heater/shaker cup that fed into a solid block of material (either PTFE, copper, or aluminum) in which a channel composed of a "zig-zag" series of inclines greater than 50 degrees has been cut. The voltage to the vibrating motor can be varied to control the amount of simulant passing through the channel. Figure I shows the Q/M measurements for JSC-1 tribocharged using the static mixers and the incline plane chargers in air, and the incline plane chargers in vacuum.

Mechanistic studies of the CO-oxidation reaction on catalysts for use in long-life CO2 lasers

The catalytic recombination of carbon monoxide and oxygen was studied under conditions expected to be present in a sealed E-beam CO2 laser system. These conditions are typically a gas inlet temperature of 60 C, a substoichiometric CO/O2 ratio of ca. 2.5/1 with an oxygen feed rate of ca. 5 micromoles/s, a carrier gas comprising He, N2 and CO2 in the ratio of 3:2:1, near atmospheric pressure and a gas velocity of 4 m/s. Heterogeneous catalysts, based on precious metal supported on tin oxide, have been coated onto ceramic monoliths and tested for catalytic activity and stability after a reduction/passivation step. Two catalyst systems have been chosen. These are Pt/Pd/SnO2 and Pt/Ru/SnO2. Under the conditions described above, a characteristic decline in catalytic activity is apparent for both systems, and exit gas temperature has been recognized as a sensitive parameter by which to monitor the activity changes. A semilogarithmic plot of exit temperature as a function of time has revealed two distinct processes connected with the decline in activity: one process is associated with reduction of the oxidized precious metal (at Site A), whilst the other is related to the formation and approach to steady-state of an active site at the metal/support interface (Site B).

Windows(Registered Trademark)-Based Software Models Cyclic Oxidation Behavior

Oxidation of high-temperature aerospace materials is a universal issue for combustion-path components in turbine or rocket engines. In addition to the question of the consumption of material due to growth of protective scale at use temperatures, there is also the question of cyclic effects and spallation of scale on cooldown. The spallation results in the removal of part of the protective oxide in a discontinuous step and thereby opens the way for more rapid oxidation upon reheating. In experiments, cyclic oxidation behavior is most commonly characterized by measuring changes in weight during extended time intervals that include hundreds or thousands of heating and cooling cycles. Weight gains occurring during isothermal scale-growth processes have been well characterized as being parabolic or nearly parabolic functions of time because diffusion controls reaction rates. In contrast, the net weight change in cyclic oxidation is the sum of the effects of the growth and spallation of scale. Typically, the net weight gain in cyclic oxidation is determined only empirically (that is, by measurement), with no unique or straightforward mathematical connection to either the rate of growth or the amount of metal consumed. Thus, there is a need for mathematical modeling to infer spallation mechanisms. COSP is a computer program that models the growth and spallation processes of cyclic oxidation on the basis of a few elementary assumptions that were discussed in COSP: A Computer Model of Cyclic Oxidation, Oxidation of Metals, vol. 36, numbers 1 and 2, 1991, pages 81-112. Inputs to the model include the selection of an oxidation-growth law and a spalling geometry, plus oxide-phase, growth-rate, cycle-duration, and spall-constant parameters. (The spalling fraction is often shown to be a constant factor times the existing amount of scale.) The output of COSP includes the net change in weight, the amounts of retained and spalled oxide, the total amounts of oxygen and metal consumed, and the terminal rates of weight loss and metal consumption.

Unraveling the Structure and Composition of Li 4 Mn 2 O 4.5 (Li 2 O·Li 0.667 Mn 1.333 O 2 ) Electrodes for Lithium Batteries Using a High-Temperature Synthesis Approach

This paper addresses the debate about the composition and structure of a lithium-rich manganese oxide electrode with a fully disordered rock salt component, Li 4 Mn 2 O 5 (or Li 2 O·2LiMnO 2 ), first reported by Freire et al. in 2016; it is typically prepared by a high-energy ball milling procedure. It has now been demonstrated that, when prepared at 800°C, the formula of this compound is Li 4 Mn 2 O 4.5 , alternatively Li 2 O·Li 0.667 Mn 1.333 O 2 , or close thereto. The cubic, disordered Li 0.667 Mn 1.333 O 2 (or Li 0.333 Mn 0.667 O) rock salt component, in which the manganese ions adopt an average oxidation state of 2.5+, transforms to a clearly-defined spinel configuration during electrochemical cycling. The electrochemical activation process that occurs during the initial charge reaction includes the oxidation of the manganese ions by oxygen released by the Li 2 O component between 4.5 and 4.6 V. In complete contrast, nickel- and nickel-cobalt-substituted electrodes, such as Li 2 O·2LiMn 0.5 Ni 0.5 O 2 (Li 4 MnNiO 5 ) and Li 2 O·2LiMn 0.475 Ni 0.475 Co 0.050 O 2 (Li 4 Mn 0.95 Ni 0.95 Co 0.10 O 5 ), in which the manganese ions adopt a tetravalent state, have completely disordered rock salt components that are electrochemically inactive.

Oxidation-induced contraction and strengthening of boron fibers

An investigation was conducted to measure and understand the physical and mechanical effects that occur in boron fibers during and after thermal treatment in a controlled oxygen argon gaseous mixture. Of principal concern was the optimization of this treatment as a secondary processing method for significantly improving fiber tensile strength. Strengthening was accomplished by an oxidation induced axial contraction of the fiber and a resulting axial compression of strength limiting flaws within the fiber's tungsten boride core. Various physical observations were used to develop mechanistic models for oxidation, contraction, and flow formation. Processing guidelines are discussed for possibly exceeding the 5.5 GN/sq m strength limit and also for achieving fiber strengthening during application of boron containing diffusion barrier coatings.

DFT and microkinetic comparison of Pt, Pd and Rh-catalyzed ammonia oxidation

Ammonia oxidation is the heart of the Ostwald process and is important in emissions control. Catalytic behaviors are a function of conditions and are observed to vary across the platinum group metals (PGMs) Pt, Pd, Rh. Here, we combine density functional theory computations and microkinetic modeling to rationalize these dependencies. We compute reactions over model (2 1 1) and (1 1 1) surfaces of PGMs. Binding energies are similar on Pd and Pt and generally greater on Rh, while activation energies vary across all metals. Rates on (2 1 1) surfaces are greater than (1 1 1) surfaces. Additionally, the stepped Pt is most active and stepped Rh most selective to N 2 at ammonia slip conditions, while at Ostwald process conditions, stepped Pd is most active and stepped Pt most selective to NO. Degree of rate and selectivity control analysis provides insights into the reactions limiting performance of PGMs. Both activation barriers and surface coverages influence rates and selectivities.

Electrochemical Routes for the Valorization of Biomass-Derived Feedstocks: From Chemistry to Application

The drive to reduce consumption of fossil resources, coupled with expanding capacity for renewable electricity, invites the exploration of new routes to utilize this energy for the sustainable production of fuels, chemicals, and materials. Biomass represents a possible source of platform precursors for such commodities due to its inherent ability to fix CO2 in the form of multi-carbon organic molecules. Electrochemical methods for the valorization of biomass are thus intriguing, but there is a need to objectively evaluate this field and define the opportunity space by identifying pathways suited to electrochemistry. In this contribution we offer a comprehensive, critical review of recent advances in low-temperature (liquid phase), electrochemical reduction and oxidation of biomass-derived intermediates (polyols, furans, carboxylic acids, amino acids, and lignin), with emphasis on identifying the state-of-the-art for each documented reaction. Progress in computational modeling is also reviewed. We further suggest a number of possible reactions that have not yet been explored but which are expected to proceed based on established routes to transform specific functional groups. We conclude with a critical discussion of technological challenges for scale-up, fundamental research needs, process intensification opportunities (e.g., by pairing compatible oxidations and reductions), and new benchmarking standards that will be necessary to accelerate progress toward application in this still-nascent field.

Stability of Mn-Doped TiO 2 Thin-Film Anodes during Water Oxidation Reactions

Incorporating manganese atoms into TiO 2 has been shown to improve its activity for water oxidation. However, its activity has been observed to steadily degrade under constant applied potential, especially at more oxidizing applied potentials. Here, the compositional profile and electrochemical stability of Mn-doped TiO 2 (Mn:TiO 2 ) thin-film electrodes precisely fabricated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) were evaluated to elucidate the mechanisms of electrode degradation. Although ALD enables the deposition of Mn dopants throughout the film thickness, only Mn within 1.5 nm of the surface was observed to be redox active. Annealing Mn:TiO 2 films in air leads to the diffusion of Mn toward the electrode surface and oxidation of the Mn and alters the redox behavior. Annealing endows greater stability to Mn redox behavior but does not fully stabilize the water oxidation current, suggesting that the two electrochemical processes are not precisely correlated. In situ inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry reveals that Mn is lost from Mn:TiO 2 films at potentials greater than 1.8 V vs RHE. However, the initial Mn loss is equivalent to less than a single ALD layer of MnO x . Longer-term constant potential experiments suggest that Mn is lost from up to 1 nm of the electrode surface but that this loss may account for only a portion of the diminished water oxidation activity.

Activation of Transition Metal (Fe, Co and Ni)-Oxide Nanoclusters by Nitrogen Defects in Carbon Nanotube for Selective CO 2 Reduction Reaction

The electrochemical carbon dioxide reduction reaction (CO2RR), which can produce value-added chemical feedstocks, is a proton-coupled-electron process with sluggish kinetics. Thus, highly efficient, cheap catalysts are urgently required. Transition metal oxides such as CoO x , FeO x , and NiO x are low-cost, low toxicity, and abundant materials for a wide range of electrochemical reactions, but are almost inert for CO 2 RR. Here, we report for the first time that nitrogen doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNT) have a surprising activation effect on the activity and selectivity of transition metal-oxide (MO x where M = Fe, Ni, and Co) nanoclusters for CO 2 RR. MO x supported on N-CNT, MOx/N-CNT, achieves a CO yield of 2.6–2.8 mmol cm -2 min -1 at an overpotential of -0.55V, which is two orders of magnitude higher than MO x supported on acid treated CNTs (MOx/O-CNT) and four times higher than pristine N-CNT. The faraday efficiency for electrochemical CO 2 -to-CO conversion is as high as 90.3% at overpotential of 0.44V. Both in-situ XAS measurements and DFT calculations disclose that MO x nanoclusters can be hydrated in CO 2 saturated KHCO 3 , and the N defects of N-CNT effectively stabilize these metal hydroxyl species under carbon dioxide reduction reaction conditions, which can split the water molecules and provide local protons to inhibit the poisoning of active sites under carbon dioxide reduction reaction conditions.

Incorporation of Oxygen Carrier Recycle into Large-Scale Production of Cu-Based Oxygen Carriers

One of the greatest challenges in the chemical looping combustion (CLC) of solid fuels is developing an oxygen carrier material that is reactive and attrition resistant and can be prepared at a reasonable cost. Recent efforts in oxygen carrier development have followed two primary approaches: (1) using natural ores, such as ilmenite, or (2) developing highly attrition-resistant and reactive synthetic materials. Both approaches have shortcomings, namely, the low reactivity and incompatibility of ores with solid fuel CLC and the high cost and low durability of synthetic materials. Here, a different approach is taken where attrition is assumed inevitable and the recycling of spent oxygen carrier materials is incorporated into oxygen carrier manufacture. For solid fuel CLC, Cu-based oxygen carriers are attrited and are collected with fly ash. Copper oxides are more reactive with nitric acid than most ash materials, meaning that a copper-nitrate-rich leachate can be generated. This copper nitrate stream could then be reused in oxygen carrier synthesis by impregnation. For proof of concept, leaching experiments were conducted to verify that copper oxides are selectively leached from ash-containing spent oxygen carriers. Several cases for process design are proposed based on the composition of spent materials, as the degree of copper oxidation and type of solid fuel dictate leaching residence times and general processing intensity. The four stages proposed here include impurity removal, copper leaching and recovery, solid–liquid separation, and evaporation/concentrating. The resulting process should be able to recover up to 95% of copper while minimizing inclusion of undesirable ash-based impurities.

The key role of the ferroptosis mechanism in neurological diseases and prospects for targeted therapy

Neurological disorders represent a major global health concern owing to their intricate pathological processes. Ferroptosis, defined as a form of cell death that is reliant on iron, has been closely linked to various neurological conditions. The fundamental process underlying ferroptosis is defined by the excessive buildup of iron ions, which initiates lipid peroxidation processes leading to cellular demise. Neurons, as highly metabolically active cells, are susceptible to oxidative stress, and imbalances in iron metabolism can directly initiate the ferroptosis process. In neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease, ferroptosis driven by iron accumulation represents a fundamental pathological connection. Although the connection between ferroptosis and neurological diseases is clear, clinical application still faces challenges, such as precise regulation of iron metabolism, development of specific drugs, and assessment of efficacy. The limited comprehension of the ferroptosis mechanism hinders the development of personalized treatment approaches. Consequently, subsequent investigations must tackle these obstacles to facilitate the clinical application of ferroptosis-associated therapies in neurological disorders. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the most recent advancements regarding the underlying mechanisms of ferroptosis. Subsequently, the study investigates the mechanistic contributions of ferroptosis within the nervous system. In conclusion, we evaluate and deliberate on targeted therapeutic strategies associated with ferroptosis and neurological disorders.

Noninvasive Breath Analysis Using NASA E-Nose Technology for Health Assessment

Clinical breath analysis is based on the fact that many important metabolites and biomarker molecules are present at detectable levels in exhaled breath, and many of these molecules correlate with human disease or correlate with physiological states that could lead to a decline in health. Presented is a technology that utilizes an array of chemical sensors combined with humidity, temperature and pressure for real time breath analysis to correlate the chemical information in the breath with the state and functioning of different human organs. For example, a marker for pulmonary inflammation processes of the lower respiratory tract, e.g. asthma, is the increase of the nitrogen oxide (NO) concentration in breath. Other volatile biomarkers may correlate with infectious process, metabolic conditions and inflammatory diseases, such as traumatic brain injury (TBI). This technology is also called "electronic nose" (E-Nose) in the sense that the device can mimic human nose to smell odors using a pattern recognition technique to analyze the sensor array data. Breath sampling is non-invasive and can be analyzed in real-time.

In-situ and ex-situ comparison of the electrochemical oxidation of SO 2 on carbon supported Pt and Au catalysts

Electrochemical characterizations are performed using thin films and commercial carbon supported platinum and gold catalysts for sulfur dioxide oxidation, the primary electrochemical oxidation reaction in the Hybrid-sulfur (HyS) thermochemical process. Electrochemical evaluation of metal thin films qualitatively confirms the higher activity of Au over Pt, AuPt, Pd, and Ir for the electrochemical oxidation of SO 2 . Ex-situ testing, using rotating disk electrode (RDE), shows an earlier onset potential for Au/C at low sulfuric acid concentrations (C ≤ 3.5 M) and a higher turnover frequency than Pt/C at sulfuric acid concentrations ranging from 3.5 M to 9 M. In-situ electrolysis experiments using low catalyst loadings (0.1 mg Au cm –2 , a factor of ≥5 lower than typical loadings) confirm that Au nanoparticles exhibit higher current densities and greater stability than Pt nanoparticles. This is consistent with the thin film screening studies, which showed higher activity with increasing gold content in AuPt thin films. Here, this work reveals an alternative material to state-of-the-art Pt to lower the energy needs and aid the HyS cycle in reaching the target of $2/kg H 2 set forth by the Department of Energy to achieve economic feasibility of large-scale hydrogen generation.

Influence of Transition Metal Ion Contaminants on the Performance of Amine-Based Solid Sorbents in Direct Air Capture

Amine-functionalized solid sorbents are a class of sorbent materials proposed for direct air capture (DAC) of CO 2 , yet their long-term performance is susceptible to degradation under realistic operating conditions. Many amines are not thermodynamically stable in air, and amine sorbents oxidize while in use during DAC temperature swing adsorption processes. In this study, we investigate the role of transition metal ion contaminants, specifically Cu 2+ , Fe 2+ , and Ni 2+ , on the oxidative degradation of poly(ethylenimine) (PEI)-impregnated SBA-15 sorbents. By introducing metal ions via different modes mimicking both synthesis-related impurities and impurities derived from environmental exposure, we systematically evaluate sorbent stability after exposure to dry air at an elevated temperature. Thermogravimetric CO 2 uptake measurements reveal that even trace levels of Cu and Fe (as low as ∼4 ppm) can lead to measurable sorbent deactivation after oxidative aging, despite negligible loss in the performance of the control samples. In situ infrared, UV–vis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies indicate that these metals catalyze radical-driven oxidation pathways, altering the chemical structure of the sorbent and accelerating degradation. Our findings underscore the need to account for trace metal contamination during DAC sorbent synthesis and deployment and highlight the importance of environmental contamination pathways.

A review on advances in oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) for industrial use and prospects of CO 2 –H 2 O splitting integration

The discovery of shale gas reserves has encouraged the development of direct methods for methane conversion into valuable chemicals, offering an alternative to indirect approaches that involve an energy-intensive and intermittent syngas production step, leading to high CO 2 emissions. Amongst the direct methods, the oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a potential pathway to reduce CO 2 emissions and can produce commodity chemicals such as ethylene, a chemical regarded as central to the petrochemical industry. Even though OCM has been studied for over four decades, the technology still has not found commercial application. Amongst the challenges regarding industrial deployment of OCM, the most significant one is the requirement of a high ethylene yield of 30 % which is currently reported to be around 20 %. Moreover, the highly exothermic nature of the process and controlling the carbon selectivity over oxides of carbon (COx) is the heart of the problem. Numerous researchers have presented promising results in terms of catalysts, reactor designs and feeding strategies for OCM. However, due to lack of inclusiveness in the results, none of the combination of catalysts, reactors and system optimizations has been able to bring about its industrial viability. The current paper presents an extensive review of the noteworthy attempts to achieve industrial targets for OCM. Moreover, a comprehensive criteria is presented which highlights the desired end state for the industrial deployment of OCM technology. Furthermore, the criteria is based on literature survey and a comparison with industrially deployed ethylene production plants i.e., naphtha or ethane steam cracker plants. Finally, a novel integration technology is presented which includes a combination of OCM and CO 2 -H 2 O splitting in a chemical looping reactor design to enable efficient energy utilization and minimal heat losses to the environment.

The influence of the processing parameters on the reactive flash sintering of ZrO 2 -CeO 2

Reactive flash sintering (RFS) is a method that was recently developed to produce dense single-phase bulk ceramic parts through solid-state reactions in a single-step that only takes a few minutes. The influence of the RFS parameters on the phase purity of a simple mixed oxide, (Zr 0.8 ,Ce 0.2 )O 2 , was investigated. Parameters such as furnace temperature, furnace atmosphere, electric current density, and alternating current (AC) or direct current (DC) were examined. It was found that (Zr 0.8 ,Ce 0.2 )O 2 pellets with high densities, above 90% of its theoretical density, can be produced by RFS in a few minutes when RFS occurs under oxidizing atmospheres, AC fields with current densities of 100 mA·mm –2 , and at a furnace temperature of 1200°C. Reducing conditions such as Ar-H 2 atmosphere and DC fields, low furnace temperatures, and low current densities resulted in phase impurities and poor reactions between the ZrO 2 and the CeO 2 powders. These results show that RFS is a useful method to produce mixed oxides, but it is very sensitive to the processing parameters. This is the first time that the influence of most of the RFS processing parameters has been studied systematically. Thus, the present work aims to provide guidelines on selecting the right processing parameters when exploring RFS.
