Effect of the Peri-Annulated Dichalcogenide Bridge on the Bipolar Character of Naphthalimide Derivatives Used as Organic Electrode Materials. MATERIALS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2025; 18:2066. [PMID: 40363569 PMCID: PMC12072909 DOI: 10.3390/ma18092066] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/17/2025] [Revised: 04/12/2025] [Accepted: 04/26/2025] [Indexed: 05/15/2025]
Abstract
In recent years, bipolar organic electrode materials have gained recognition as competitive alternatives to inorganic materials due to their unique multielectron redox mechanism for energy storage. In this study, we examined the mechanism of redox reactions in naphthalimide (NI) derivatives when used as electrodes in lithium half-cells with ionic liquid electrolytes. The NI derivatives consist of three building fragments: an aromatic naphthalene core, N-alkylated imide unit, and a peri-dichalcogenide bridge. The integration of electrochemical and microscopic methods with DFT calculations facilitates the delineation of the role of each fragment in the oxidation and reduction reactions of NI derivatives. It is found that the peri-dichalcogenide bridge is mainly involved in the oxidation of NI derivatives above 3.9 V, the charge compensation being achieved by electrolyte TFSI- counter-ions. The reduction of NI derivatives with two Li+ ions is mainly due to the participation of the chalcogenide bridge, while after interaction with the next two Li+ ions, the imide fragment and the naphthalene moiety contribute equally to the reduction. Based on the leading role of the peri-dichalcogenide bridge, the redox properties of NI derivatives are effectively controlled by the gradual replacement of S with Se and Te atoms in the bridge. To improve the electronic conductivity of NIs, composites with rGO are also synthesized by a simple procedure of mechanical mixing in a centrifugal mixer. The composites rGO/NIs display a good storage performance, the best being the Se-containing analogue.

Abstract
The performance of electrochemical cells for energy storage and conversion can be improved by optimizing their manufacturing processes. This can be time-consuming and costly with the traditional trial-and-error approaches. Machine Learning (ML) models can help to overcome these obstacles. In academic research laboratories, manufacturing dataset sizes can be small, while ML models typically require large amounts of data. In this work, we propose a simple but still novel application of a Transfer Learning (TL) approach to address these manufacturing problems with a small amount of data. We have tested this approach with pre-existing experimental and stochastically generated datasets. These datasets consisted of component properties (e.g., electrode density) related to different manufacturing parameters (e.g., solid content, comma gap, coating speed). We have demonstrated the robustness of our TL approach for manufacturing problems by achieving excellent prediction performance for electrodes in lithium-ion batteries and gas diffusion layers in fuel cells.

High performance supercapacitors driven by the synergy of a redox-active electrolyte and core-nanoshell zeolitic imidazolate frameworks. NANOSCALE ADVANCES 2025; 7:2105-2118.

Abstract
The selection of appropriate electrolytes plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of the supercapacitor electrode. The electrolyte helps to select an appropriate potential window of the device, which is directly related to its energy density. Also, the selection of an appropriate electrode material targets the specific capacitance. Therefore, in this work, we targeted an electrode material based on a ZIF-8@ZIF-67 (Z867) core-nanoshell structure and tested its performance in redox active electrolyte (RAE), i.e., 0.2 M K3[Fe(CN)6] in 1 M Na2SO4. The synergy between the core-nanoshell electrode having ZIF-8 as a core and ZIF-67 as a nanoshell along with RAE further complements the redox active sites, resulting in the improved charge transport. Therefore, when the Z867 core-nanoshell electrode is tested in a three-electrode system, it outperforms pristine ZIF-8 and ZIF-67 electrode materials. The working electrode modified with the Z867 core-nanoshell showed a maximum specific capacitance of 496.4 F g-1 at 4.5 A g-1 current density with the RAE, which is much higher than that of the aqueous electrolyte. A Z867-modified working electrode was assembled as the positive and negative electrode in a symmetrical cell configuration to create a redox supercapacitor device for practical application. The constructed device displayed maximal energy and power densities of 49.6 W h kg-1 and 3.2 kW kg-1 respectively, along with a capacitance retention of 92% after 10 000 charge-discharge cycles. Hence, these studies confirm that using RAE can improve the electrochemical performance of electrodes to a greater extent than that of aqueous electrolyte-based supercapacitors.

Abstract
Commercial battery separators are made of polyolefin polymers due to their desired mechanical strength and chemical stability. However, these materials are not biodegradable and are challenging to recycle. Considering the environmental issues from polyolefins, biodegradable polymers can be developed as separators to reduce the potential waste from polyolefin separators. In this work, we investigated the potential of poly(vinyl alcohol)/chitin nanofiber (PVA/CHNF) nanofiber as a sustainable lithium-ion battery separator, which was successfully fabricated via the electrospinning and cross-linking method. The PVA/CHNF separator is biodegradable and has an ionic conductivity (1.41 mS cm-1), desirable porosity (86%), good thermal stability (1.4% shrinkage upon heating at 90 °C for 1 h), as well as high electrolyte uptake (388%). The PVA/CHNF separator is also evaluated in the assembled Li//LiFePO4 cells, showing an improved performance compared to the cell with the commercial separator. It shows a discharge capacity of 142 mAh g-1, which is stable throughout 120 charge-discharge cycles. Hence, according to these resulting properties, the PVA/CHNF separator shows promise as a sustainable and environmentally friendly lithium-ion battery separator, offering a high-value use of waste chitin materials.

Abstract
Polymer-based batteries represent a promising candidate for next-generation batteries due to their high power densities, decent cyclability, and environmentally friendly synthesis. However, their performance essentially depends on the complex multiscale morphology of their electrodes, which can significantly affect the transport of ions and electrons within the electrode structure. In this paper, we present a comprehensive investigation of the complex relationship between the three-dimensional (3D) morphology of polymer-based battery electrodes and their effective transport properties. In particular, focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy (FIB-SEM) is used to characterize the 3D morphology of three polymer-based electrodes which differ in material composition. The subsequent segmentation of FIB-SEM image data into active material, carbon-binder domain and pore space enables a comprehensive statistical analysis of the electrode structure and a quantitative morphological comparison of the electrode samples. Moreover, spatially resolved numerical simulations allow for computing effective properties of ionic and electronic transport. The obtained results are used for establishing analytical regression formulas which describe quantitative relationships between the 3D morphology of the electrodes and their effective transport properties. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time that the 3D structure of polymer-based battery electrodes is quantitatively investigated at the nanometer scale.

Abstract
Upcycling Covid19 plastic waste into valuable carbonaceous materials for energy storage applications is a sustainable and green approach to minimize the burden of waste plastic on the environment. Herein, we developed a facile single step activation technique for producing activated carbon consisting of spherical flower like carbon nanosheets and amorphous porous flakes from used PET [poly(ethylene terephthalate)] face shields for supercapacitor applications. The as-obtained activated carbon exhibited a high specific surface area of 1571 m2 g-1 and pore volume of 1.64 cm3 g-1. The specific capacitance of these carbon nanostructure-coated stainless steel electrodes reached 228.2 F g-1 at 1 A g-1 current density with excellent charge transport features and good rate capability in 1 M Na2SO4 aqueous electrolyte. We explored the slot-die coating technique for large-area coatings of flexible high-performance activated carbon electrodes with special emphasis on optimizing binder concentration. Significant improvement in electrochemical performance was achieved for the electrodes with 15 wt% Nafion concentration. The flexible supercapacitors fabricated using these electrodes showed high energy and power density of 21.8 W h kg-1 and 20 600 W kg-1 respectively, and retained 96.2% of the initial capacitance after 10 000 cycles at 2 A g-1 current density. The present study provides a promising sustainable approach for upcycling PET plastic waste for large area printable supercapacitors.

Abstract
From scientific and technological points of view, poly(vinylidene fluoride), PVDF, is one of the most exciting polymers due to its overall physicochemical characteristics. This polymer can crystalize into five crystalline phases and can be processed in the form of films, fibers, membranes, and specific microstructures, being the physical properties controllable over a wide range through appropriate chemical modifications. Moreover, PVDF-based materials are characterized by excellent chemical, mechanical, thermal, and radiation resistance, and for their outstanding electroactive properties, including high dielectric, piezoelectric, pyroelectric, and ferroelectric response, being the best among polymer systems and thus noteworthy for an increasing number of technologies. This review summarizes and critically discusses the latest advances in PVDF and its copolymers, composites, and blends, including their main characteristics and processability, together with their tailorability and implementation in areas including sensors, actuators, energy harvesting and storage devices, environmental membranes, microfluidic, tissue engineering, and antimicrobial applications. The main conclusions, challenges and future trends concerning materials and application areas are also presented.
