A nonlinear phase-field model has been developed for describing the electrodeposition process in electrochemical systems that are highly out of equilibrium. Main thermodynamic driving forces for the electrode-electrolyte interface (EEI) evolution are limited to local variations of overpotential and ion concentration. Application of the model to Li-ion batteries describes the electrode interface...

With the development of renewable energy and electrified transportation, electrochemical energy storage will be more urgent in the future. Supercapacitors have received extensive attention due to their high power density, fast charge and discharge rates, and long-term cycling stability. During past five years, supercapacitors have been boomed benefited from the development of nanostructured mat...

Three-dimensional (3-D) architectures can provide significant advantages as lithium ion microbattery electrodes by lengthening the vertical dimension. In addition, the nanoscale hierarchy and hollow properties are important factors for enhancing the performance. Here, we prepared a 3-D nickel sulfide nanoarchitecture via a facile low-temperature solution route. A Kirkendall effect-driven sulfid...

Transition metal oxides are regarded as a potential electrode material for lithium-ion storage due to it features high theoretical capacity and low cost. In this study, the possibility of Fe2O3 microcubes an was investigated, where anode were created through Prussian blue (PB) metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) followed by calcination process at temperature. The results showed that obtained 500 °C...

A nanocomposite membrane Cu2+ ion-selective electrode has been constructed using a new compound ethyl 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)-6-methyl-2-oxopyrimidine-5-carboxylat (ETMOC) as a neutral ionophore.

The use of calixpyrroles as cation monitoring systems is very limited. The importance of fundamental studies for providing the basis for the selection of an appropriate ionophore for use in the design of ion selective electrodes cannot be overemphasised. Thus a new ditopic receptor, namely meso-tetramethyltetrakis-(4N,N-diethylacetamide) phenoxymethyl]calix[4]pyrrole (CPA), bearing cation and a...
