The solution used in a vanadium flow battery is vanadium oxide, V2O5, dissolved in sulfuric acid and water. All conventional batteries must contain two unique solutions. Production of the solution is more space and time efficient, and it is impossible to contaminate the battery within itself. Another advantage is that the reaction is in aqueous solution and requires no phase changes. We are cur...

Two different SCR catalysts, V2O5-WO3/TiO2 and Cu-SSZ-13, were exposed to biodiesel exhausts generated by a diesel burner. The effect of phosphorus sulfur on the performance these cataly ...

an efficient protocol for the selective oxidation of primary alcohols to aldehydes withh5io6/v2o5 in ionic liquid [bmpy][pf6] has been developed. high yields of the products, mildreaction conditions and simple experimental procedure make this protocol complementary tothe existing methods. the catalyst can be reused for several times without obvious loss of thecatalytic activity.

Mesoporous single-crystalline V2O5 nanorods assembled into novel hollow microspheres have been synthesized as cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries by a simple solvothermal treatment of NH4VO3 and ethylene glycol with subsequent annealing in air at 400 °C, which delivered a very high reversible capacity of 145.8 mA h g(-1) at 2.5-4.0 V (vs. theoretical value: 147 mA h g(-1)) with much imp...

The high-temperature annealing effect of a V2O5/Al2O3 bilayer on the reflectivity visible band was studied in present work. It found that V2O5 (200 nm)/Al2O3 (30 nm) sample (A-0) has nano-granular surface morphology without definite crystalline phase. reflectance A-0 overreaches 60% as wavelength is larger than 650 nm, and its minimum (20%) occurs at ~500 nm. After situ treatment 750 °C for 30 ...

Cobalt-based electrocatalysts have been considered promising materials for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we now report synthesis of vanadium-doped CoS/Co9S8 heterostructures embedded on carbon nanorods (V-CoS/Co9S8@CNR), which was realized through one-step sulfurization Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67 (ZIF-67) grown V2O5 (V2O5@ZIF-67). The results experiment and theoretical cal...
