Single‐Anion Conductive Solid‐State Electrolytes with Hierarchical Ionic Highways for Flexible Zinc‐Air Battery

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 63(36)

Published: June 18, 2024

Flexible zinc-air batteries are leading power sources for next-generation smart wearable electronics. However, flexible suffer from the highly-corrosive safety risk and limited lifespan due to absence of reliable solid-state electrolytes (SSEs). Herein, a single-anion conductive SSE with high-safety is constructed by incorporating highly amorphous dual-cation ionomer into robust hybrid matrix functional carbon nanotubes polyacrylamide polymer. The as-fabricated obtains dual-penetrating ionomer-polymer networks hierarchical ionic highways, which contribute mechanical robustness 1200 % stretchability, decent water uptake retention, superhigh ion conductivity 245 mS ⋅ cm

Reversible Hydrogen Electrode (RHE) Scale Dependent Surface Pourbaix Diagram at Different pH

Langmuir, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 40(14), P. 7632 - 7638

Published: March 29, 2024

In the analysis of electrocatalysis mechanisms and design catalysts, effect electrochemistry-induced surface coverage is a critical consideration that should not be overlooked. The Pourbaix diagram emerges as fundamental tool in this context, providing essential insights into adsorbates generated via electrochemical potential-driven water activation. A classic considers pH effects by correcting free energy H+ ions concentration-dependent term: −kBT ln(10) × pH, which independent reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) scale. However, sometimes inconsistent with experimentally observed potential-dependent at an RHE scale, especially under high-pH conditions. Here, we derived pH-dependent scale considering energetics computed density functional theory Bayesian Error Estimation Functional van der Waals corrections (BEEF-vdW), electric field effects, adsorption-induced dipole moment polarizability, potential zero-charge. Using Pt(111) typical example, found predicted proposed RHE-dependent can significantly minimize discrepancy between experimental observations, neutral-alkaline, moderate-potential This work provides new methodology establishes guidelines for precise prior to evaluation activity electrocatalyst.
