Polymer-Based Solid Electrolytes: Material Selection,Design, and Application

Polymer-based solid electrolytes (PSEs) have attracted tremendous interests for the next-generation lithium batteries in terms of high safety and energy density along with good flexibility. Remarkable performances have been demonstrated in PSEs, which endowed PSEs with the potential to replace liquid electrolytes to meet the market demands. In this review, polymer matrices, different polymer architectures, and functional filler materials used in PSEs are discussed to explore the design concepts, methodologies, working mechanisms, and pros and cons of various PSEs. In addition, their recent notable applications in all-solid-state lithium ion batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries, suppression of lithium dendrites, and flexible lithium batteries are also introduced. Finally, the challenges and future prospects are sketched to provide strategies to explore novel PSEs for high-performance all-solid-state lithium batteries.

Carbon Black-Supported Single-Atom Co?N?C as an Efficient Oxygen Reduction Electrocatalyst for H2O2 Production in Acidic Media and Microbial Fuel Cell in Neutral Media

Single metal atom isolated in nitrogen-doped carbon materials (M N C) are effective electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), which produces H₂O₂ or H₂O via 2-electron or 4-electron process. However, most of M N C catalysts can only present high selectivity for one product, and the selectivity is usually regulated by complicated structure design. Herein, a carbon black-supported Co N C catalyst (CB@Co N C) is synthesized. Tunable 2-electron/4-electron behavior is realized on CB@Co-N-C by utilizing its H₂O₂ yield dependence on electrolyte pH and catalyst loading. In acidic media with low catalyst loading, CB@Co N C presents excellent mass activity and high selectivity for H₂O₂ production. In flow cell with gas diffusion electrode, a H₂O₂ production rate of 5.04 mol h⁻¹ g⁻¹ is achieved by CB@Co N C on electrolyte circulation mode, and a long-term H₂O₂ production of 200 h is demonstrated on electrolyte non-circulation mode. Meanwhile, CB@Co N C exhibits a dominant 4-electron ORR pathway with high activity and durability in pH neutral media with high catalyst loading. The microbial fuel cell using CB@Co N C as the cathode catalyst shows a peak power density close to that of benchmark Pt/C catalyst.     

Confined Ferroelectric Properties in Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride‐co‐Chlorotrifluoroethylene)‐graft‐Polystyrene Graft Copolymers for Electric Energy Storage Applications

Dielectric polymer film capacitors having high energy density, low loss and fast discharge speed are highly desirable for compact and reliable electrical power systems. In this work, we study the confined ferroelectric properties in a series of poly(vinylidene fluoride‐co‐chlorotrifluoroethylene)‐graft‐polystyrene [P(VDF‐CTFE)‐g‐PS] graft copolymers, and their potential application as high energy density and low loss capacitor films. Thin films (ca. 20 μm) are prepared by different processing methods, namely, hot‐pressing or solution‐casting followed by mechanical stretching at elevated temperatures. After crystallization‐induced microphase separation, PS side chains are segregated to the periphery of PVDF crystals, forming a confining interfacial layer. Due to the low polarizability of this confining PS‐rich layer at the amorphous–crystalline interface, the compensation polarization is substantially decreased resulting in a novel confined ferroelectric behavior in these graft copolymers. Both dielectric and ferroelectric losses are significantly reduced at the expense of a moderate decrease in discharged energy density. Our study indicates that the best performance is achieved for a P(VDF‐CTFE)‐g‐PS graft copolymer with 34 wt‐% PS; a relatively high discharged energy density of approximately 10 J cm^?3 at 600 MV m^?1, a low dielectric loss (tanδ = 0.006 at 1 kHz), and a low hysteresis loop loss (17.6%) at 550 MV m^?1.     

Tuning a Solvation Structure of Lithium Ions Coordinated with Nitrate Anions through Ionic Liquid-Based Solvent for Highly Stable Lithium Metal Batteries

Rational design of promising electrolyte is considered as an effective strategy to improve the cycling stability of lithium metal batteries (LMBs). Here, an elaborately designed ionic liquid-based electrolyte is proposed that is composed of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide as the lithium salt, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium nitrate ionic liquid ([EMIm][NO₃] IL) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) as the functional solvents, and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) as the diluent solvent. Using [EMIm][NO₃] IL as the solvent component facilitates a special Li⁺-coordinated NO₃⁻ solvation structure, which enables the continues electrochemical reduction of solvated NO₃⁻ and the formation of remarkably stable and conductive solid electrolyte interface. With FEC as another functional solvent and DME as the diluent solvent, the formulated electrolyte delivers high oxidative stability and ionic conductivity, and endows improved electrochemical reaction kinetics. Therefore, the formulated electrolyte demonstrates exceedingly reversible and stable Li stripping/plating behavior with high average Coulombic efficiency (98.8%) and ultralong cycling stability (3500 h). Notably, the high-voltage Li|LiNi_0.8Co_0.1Mn_0.1O₂ full cell with IL-based electrolyte exhibits enhanced cyclability with a capacity retention of 65% after 200 cycles under harsh conditions of low negative/positive ratio (3.1) and lean electrolyte (2.5 µL mg⁻¹). This study creates the first NO₃⁻-based ionic liquid electrolyte and evokes the avenue for practical high-voltage LMBs.     

Spectrum leasing based on Nash Bargaining Solution in cognitive radio networks

Cognitive radio is becoming an emerging technology that has the potential of dealing with the stringent requirement and scarcity of the radio spectrum resource. In this paper, we focus on the dynamic spectrum access of cognitive radio networks, in which the primary user (PU) and secondary users (SUs) coexist. In property-rights model, the PU has property of the bandwidth and may decide to lease it to secondary network for a fraction of time in exchange for appropriate remuneration. We propose a cooperative communication-aware spectrum leasing framework, in which, PU selects SUs as cooperative relays to help transmit information, while the selected SUs have the right to decide their payment made for PU in order to obtain a proportional access time to the spectrum. Then, the spectrum leasing scheme is cast into a Nash Bargaining Problem, and the Nash Bargaining Solution (NBS) can be used to fairly and efficiently address the resource allocation between PU and secondary network, enhancing both the utility of PU and secondary network. Numerical results show that spectrum leasing based on NBS is an effective method to improve performance for cognitive radio networks.
