We investigated the effect of copper ion concentration in zinc-copper dual-ion electrolytes to suppress dendrites and extend the cycle life of zinc ion capacitors. The devices were characterized in terms of changes in microstructure and cycling stability. The nuclei size was decreased in the optimal copper ion concentration to promote lateral deposition and avoid vertical dendrites. The device exhibited stable cycling performance with a capacitance retention of 95% after 10,000 redox cycles, compared to the device with single zinc ion electrolyte which short circuited at around 1,250 redox cycles.

In the presented work, the possibility of direct synthesis of LDH(layered double hydroxide) on the AZ91 surface in the presence of a chelating agent(diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid-DTPA) is reported. Conversion layer of LDH nanocontainers were formed under ambient pressure conditions without carbonate addition in the electrolyte. The obtained LDH was characterized using experimental(SEM,XRD, TGA, XPS, Raman, etc.) and computational methods(thermodynamic calculation, modeling of possible LDH crystal structures). A comparison of three possible LDHs(LDH-OH,-NO_(3) and-CO_(3)) was performed. Based on the experimental results and crystal simulation approach, it was confirmed, that the mixed LDH-OH/CO_(3) is grown on the surface in the presence of DTPA pentasodium salt.

APtO3 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) is a unique family in the complex transition metal oxides with the AMO3 formula. Most 3d and 4dAMO3 compounds adopt the perovskite structure when synthesized at ambient or high pressure; however, APtO3 perovskites have not been reported, even if their geometric tolerance factor, t, falls in the range suitable for the perovskite structure. Herein, we studied the crystal structures of BaPtO3 by performing the in situ x-ray diffraction over a broad range in the pressure (P)–temperature (T) phase diagram. The perovskite BaPtO3 can be stabilized at P>35 GPa and T>1100 K. A variety of crystal structures, including the perovskite structure and its hexagonal polytypes, observed in the P–T phase diagram of BaPtO3 match the structure predictions from the first-principles calculations reasonably well.

Microplastics are a growing environmental concern, with a large body of evidence documenting substantial distribution of plastic material in virtually all environmental compartments. Countermeasures that help to bind, aggregate, or coalesce these distributed particles might result in lower human and animal exposures. Pressure sensitive adhesives (PSAs) have been identified as a viable microplastic (MP) capture mechanism with a range of potential use conditions. As with any countermeasure, there is a need to evaluate potential solutions in terms of collection efficiency, cost, ease of installation, etc. Expanding on our previous work, spray-coated PSAs were investigated as submerged surfaces as tools to assess MP binding in aqueous dispersions. Resins containing two differing molecular weights of poly(2-ethylhexyl acrylate) PSA (92k and 950k), and a 50:50 by weight mixture of the two resins were applied as spray-coated substrates to compare the effect of resin composition on MP-adhesive binding. Thin films of PSA (92k 6 ± 1 μm, 950k 4 ± 2 μm, 50:50 BD 6.5 ± 1 μm) were sprayed on borosilicate glass slides using a commercial air brush. Polydisperse nylon-12 particles varying in size from 15-30 µm in diameter were dispersed in deionized water at concentrations between 0.01 and 5 mg mL -1 and agitated under ambient conditions to assess adhesive binding as quantitative comparisons of microparticle capture. Mixed assays were also performed comparing binding of common MP species including polyethylene (50, 200 µm), polystyrene (10 µm), and polyester fibers (1000 µm) to understand how varying composition, size, and form factor affect adsorption. The glass slide method showed increasing linear trends of particle binding with increased adhesive exposure time and MP concentration. The lower molecular weight 92K adhesive had lower viscosity, higher wettability for microplastics but also led to a less stable adhesive film complicating analysis.
