Effect of supports on the redox performance of pyrite cinder in chemical looping combustion

Chemical looping combustion (CLC) is a clean and efficient flame-free combustion technology,which combust the fuels by lattice oxygen from a solid oxygen carrier with inherent CO2 capture.The develop-ment of oxygen carriers with low cost and high redox performance is crucial to the whole efficiency of CLC process.As the solid by-product from the sulfuric acid production,pyrite cinder presented excellent redox performance as an oxygen carrier in CLC process.The main components in pyrite cinder are Fe2O3,CaSO4,Al2O3 and SiO2 in which Fe2O3 is the active component to provide lattice oxygen.In order to sys-tematic investigate the functions of supports (CaSO4,Al2O3 and SiO2) in pyrite cinder,three oxygen car-riers (Fe2O3-CaSO4,Fe2O3-Al2O3 and Fe2O3-SiO2) were prepared and evaluated in this study.The results showed that Fe2O3-CaSO4 displayed high redox activity and cycling stability in the multiple redox cycles.However,both Fe2O3-Al2O3 and Fe2O3-SiO2 experienced serious deactivation during redox reactions.It indicated that the inert Fe-Si solid solution (Fe2SiO4) was formed in the spent Fe2O3-SiO2 sample,which decreased the oxygen carrying capacity of this sample.The XPS results showed that the oxygen species on the surface of Fe2O3-CaSO4 could be fully recovered after the 20 redox cycles.It can be concluded that CaSO4 is the key to the high redox activity and cycling stability of pyrite cinder.     

CHARAC TERIZATION OF TiAl POWDER PRODUCED BY MECHANICAL ALLOYING

The microstructure,alloying reaction and sintering behavior of the powder produced by Mechanical Al-loying(MA)for 8 h from 64 wt.-% Ti powder and 36 wt.-% Al powder were studied by scanning electronmicroscopy,optical microscopy,X-ray diffractometry,differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)and dilatometry.The mechanically alloyed powder partictes are Ti-Al composite particles.Thus,titanium aluminides can formeasily in the powder through diffusion during heat treatment.It is shown that the sintering behavior of this pow-der,different from the behaviors of TiAl alloy powder and mixed powder of 64 wt.-% Ti powder and 36 wt.-%Al powder,changes from expansion at temperatures below 1000℃ to shrinkage at temperatures above 1000℃.Homogeneously alloyed TiAl material with a density over 96% of the theoretical density can be produced fromthe mechanically alloyed powder by compaction-sintering.     

Characterization of ultrafine La x Sr1−x MnO3 powder prepared by spray pyrolysis

The characterization of La _x Sr_1−x MnO₃ powders produced by spray pyrolysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observation, specific surface area (Brunauer-Emett-Teller), and particle size distribution measurements shows that the resultant large particles are loose agglomerates consisting of many small particles. However, the sintered tiny particles can form hard agglomerates, and the particle size increases remarkably. The structures of the powders before and after sintering were identified by x-ray diffraction (XRD). The study of the electrical property of the powder shows that the powder is a metallic conductor. In a reducing atmosphere, the powder can be decomposed. When the powder is cofired with yttria-stabilized zirconia 5% (YSZ) powder at 1200 °C for 5 h, no new phase is produced, and the powder remains a single provskite hexagonal-rhombohedral structure.

The role of crystallization kinetics in the development of the structure and properties of polypropylene filaments

The processing, structure, and properties of filaments melt spun from three polypropylenes with similar rheology but substantially different crystallization kinetics were studied. The crystallization kinetics of the homopolymer was increased by the addition of a nucleating agent, whereas slower crystallization kinetics was obtained through a small amount of random copolymerization with ethylene. The relative crystallization kinetics of these three polymers was examined under quiescent conditions using differential scanning calorimetry. The technique of on-line diameter and birefringence measurement was used to show the characteristics of the on-line crystallization of the different resins. It was found that changing the quiescent crystallization kinetics by either the addition of a nucleating agent or through copolymerization with ethylene can produce profound effects on the structure and properties of polypropylene as-spun filaments when they are spun under relatively low stress and low takeup velocity conditions. Higher takeup velocities and spinline stresses reduce the effect of differences in quiescent crystallization due to the influence of on-line stress-induced (molecular orientation-enhanced) crystallization. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Analysis of the oscillatory behavior of double-walled carbon nanotube-based oscillators

Molecular dynamics simulations of oscillatory behaviors of double-walled carbon nanotube-based oscillators are performed. The second-generation empirical bond-order potential is used for the atomic interactions within a wall, and a registry-dependent and four different registry-independent van der Waals potentials are used for the atomic interactions between walls. It is found that the frequencies of the nanotube oscillators are sensitive to the choice of the van der Waals potentials. An almost non-decay oscillation is observed for the registry-dependent potential when there is no rocking motion. However, an apparent decay oscillation is observed when rocking motion occurs. A decay oscillation is observed for all registry-independent potentials even without rocking motion. Mechanisms leading to unstable oscillatory behavior are analyzed.

FeS2@TiO2 nanorods as high-performance anode for sodium ion battery

Sodium-ion battery (SIB) is an ideal device that could replace lithium-ion battery (LIB) in grid-scale energy storage system for power because of the low cost and rich reserve of raw material. The key challenge lies in developing electrode materials enabling reversible Na⁺ insertion/desertion and fast reaction kinetics. Herein, a core-shell structure, FeS₂ nanoparticles encapsulated in biphase TiO₂ shell (FeS₂@TiO₂), is developed towards the improvement of sodium storage. The diphase TiO₂ coating supplies abundant anatase/rutile interface and oxygen vacancies which will enhance the charge transfer, and avoid severe volume variation of FeS₂ caused by the Na⁺ insertion. The FeS₂ core will deliver high theoretical capacity through its conversion reaction mechanism. Consequently, the FeS₂@TiO₂ nanorods display notable performance as anode for SIBs including long-term cycling performance (637.8 mA·h·g^-1 at 0.2 A·g^-1 after 300 cycles, 374.9 mA·h·g^-1 at 5.0 A·g^-1 after 600 cycles) and outstanding rate capability (222.2 mA·h·g^-1 at 10 A·g^-1). Furthermore, the synthesized FeS₂@TiO₂ demonstrates significant pseudocapacitive behavior which accounts for 90.7% of the Na⁺ storage, and efficiently boosts the rate capability. This work provides a new pathway to fabricate anode material with an optimized structure and crystal phase for SIBs.
