Kinetic Effects of Anion Clusters on the Interfacial Stability between Solid-State Electrolyte and Metal Anode by Hong Fang, Puru Jena

“…The success of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) depends on the solid-state electrolyte (SSE) exhibiting high interfacial stability and room-temperature ionic conductivity. However, the current SSEs, especially those with practical ionic conductivities (≥10^{−3} S/cm) at room temperature, often develop unstable interfaces at the metal anode, in some cases with even greater severity than with liquid organic electrolytes. …”

Characterization of Oxygen Diffusion and Catalytic Behavior of Composite Materials in Solid Oxide Fuel Cells Using the Non-destructive Adler-Lane-Steele Method by Azreen Junaida Abd Aziz, Nurul Akidah Baharuddin, Bee Huah Lim

“…To bring SOFC to market, researchers must develop highly electroactive, low-cost devices that are chemically stable in both high (800 – 1000 °C) and low (600 – 800 °C) temperatures, as well as optimize oxygen reduction in electrodes. The electrochemical performance of SOFC is highly dependent on the catalytic activity (or catalyst behaviours) of the electrode materials involved in the oxygen reduction reaction due to the slower oxygen reduction kinetics at lower temperatures. …”

Reactive molecular dynamics simulations of lithium-ion battery electrolyte degradation by Y. Mabrouk, N. Safaei, F. Hanke, J. M. Carlsson, D. Diddens, A. Heuer

“…We focus on deriving condensed-phase effective rates based on the elementary gas-phase reduction and decomposition energy barriers. After a short initial transient limited by the elementary barriers, we observe that the effective rate shows a transition to a kinetically slow regime influenced by the changing coordination environment and the ionic fluxes between the bulk electrolyte and the interface. …”

Enhancement on stability and strength of underwater concrete through liquid nitrogen freezing process: A sustainable approach for scour protection by Jun Ren, Junjie Liu, Jianghong Mao, Kun Fang, Changhong Xie

“…However, the freezing treatment primarily affected early strength development, with hydration products adequately filling the matrix pore space, leading to only a 3.55 % reduction in compressive strength at 28 days. Moreover, the tests of environmental impact revealed that, flocculants improved bonding to reduce material loss and ionic leaching, freezing formed a denser matrix and further minimized leaching. …”

Synthesis and characterization of methacrylamidopropyltrimethylammonium chloride and N-substituted acrylamide ionomers

“…The glass transition temperature (Tg) of ionomers were greater than those of the corresponding homopolymers, attributed to a reduction in segmental mobility. The initial decomposition temperature (IDT) showed that the stability of ionomers increases with increasing mole percentage of ionic content.…”

Redox behavior of degassing magmas: critical review and comparison of glass-based oxybarometers with application to Etna volcano by Moretti, Roberto

“…Dehydration determines a slight iron oxidation down to around 2.5 wt% in dissolved water, but further dehydration taking place up to the surface results in iron reduction. This dual behavior, related to a change of trivalent iron speciation, is reproduced by reactive ionic-polymeric approaches and for the Etna basalt it is predicted also for constant $f\mathrm{O}_{2}$. …”
