Naxmyfe(Cn)6(M=Fe, Co, Ni): A New Class Of Cathode Materials For Sodium Ion Batteries, Jiang-Feng Qian, Min Zhou, Yu-Liang Cao, Han-Xi Yang
Journal of Electrochemistry
Three types of Prussian blue compounds, NaxMyFe(CN)6(M = Fe, Co, Ni), were prepared simply by solution precipitation method and tested as cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries. X-ray diffraction and SEM measurements demonstrated that the prepared materials, namely, NaFeFe(CN)6, Na2CoFe(CN)6, and Na2NiFe(CN)6, exhibited a perfect cubic structure with a particle size of several tens nanometers. Cyclic voltammetric and galvanostatic cycling tests revealed very different electrochemical behaviors of these three materials. The specific capacities of NaFeFe(CN)6 and Na2CoFe(CN)6 could reach 113 mAh?g-1 and 120 mAh?g-1, respectively, indicating that both of the Fe(CN)6-4 and Fe+2/Co+2 ions in the Prussian blue lattices were electrochemically …

The shape dependence of the catalytic reduction of nitric oxide by carbon monoxide on rhodium nanopoly- hedra and nanocubes was studied from 230 to 270 ° C. The nanocubes are found to exhibit higher turnover frequency and lower activation energy than the nanopolyhedra. These trends are compared to previous studies on Rh single crystals.

The microstructure and electrochemical properties of Zr 0.9 Ti 0.1 (Ni,Co,Mn,V) 2.1 alloys prepared by both the melt_spinning method and the conventional induction melting were investigated. XRD studies show that Zr 0.9 Ti 0.1 (Ni,Co,Mn,V) 2.1 alloys at as_cast,melt_spinning and annealing are all face center cubic structure with C15 laves phase,the higher the melt_spinning rate,the more the amorphous content.The electrochemical measurements show that melt_spinning alloys have better active behavior,low discharge capacity(<280 mAh/g); but after annealed,the alloys are activated completely with 30 cycles, the capacities about 340 mAh/g are higher than those of as_cast and melt_spinning alloys;the annealec alloys have a better cycle stability than that of as_cast alloy, and the higher the melt_spinning rate is, the more stable the alloy becomes; at 300 mAh/g current density,the capacity of annealed 40 m/s alloy is up to 85% of the maximum capacity after 800 cycles, the capacity decay rate is about 6.9%.

The diffusion coefficients of protons moving in the Ni(OH)2 electrodes have being investigated by constant current,cyclic voltammetry and potential step technineques.The electrodes were prepared by cathodic deposition and their active material contained 0～53% cobalt.It was found that the diffusion coefficients are about 10(-9)～10(-10) cm2/s during charging and about 10(-11) cm2/s during discharging.Moreover the value increases with the increacing content of Co in the electrodes.During the calculation,the relevant fomulars were modified especially the wrong fomular for constant current methode.
