However, the sulfur-based conversion reaction in conventional liquid electrolytes results in issues like the so-called shuttle effect of polysulfides and lithium dendrite growth, which deteriorate the electrochemical performance and safety of Li–S batteries. Optimization of conventional organic solvents(including ether and carbonate) by fluorination to form fluorinated electrolytes is a promising strategy for the practical application of Li–S batteries. The fluorinated electrolytes, owing to the high electronegativity of fluorine, possesses attractive physicochemical properties, including low melting point,high flash point, and low solubility of lithium polysulfide, and can form a compact and stable solid electrolyte interphase(SEI) with the lithium metal anode. Herein, we review recent advancements in the development of fluorinated electrolytes for use in Li–S batteries. The effect of solvent molecular structure on the performance of Li–S batteries and the formation mechanism of SEI on the cathode and anode sides are analyzed and discussed in detail. The remaining challenges and future perspectives of fluorinated electrolytes for Li–S batteries are also presented.展开更多

The Li/Na adsorption on single CF layer and intercalated into bulk CF have been calculated. The better cycling performance of Na intercalation into the CF cathode, comparing to that of Li intercalation, is attributed to the different strength and characteristics of the Li-F and Na-F interactions. The interactions between Li and F are stronger and more localized than those between Na and E The strong and localized Coulomb attraction between Li and F atoms breaks the C-F bonds and pulls the F atoms away, and graphene sheets are formed upon Li intercalation.展开更多

In order to reduce the possibility of side reaction, the protection and deprotection via silylation were used for the end-hydroxyls in PEO-b-PDMS-b-PEO chain. The structure of Intermediates and FPEO-b-PDMS-b-FPEO was confirmed by means of Fourier transform infrared and 1H NMR spectroscopy.

The su...A series of copolymers comprising butylmethacrylate, styrene, butylacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate and perfluoroalkyl methacrylate were synthesized by the free radical polymerization using BPO as an initiator. The surface property of the copolymer films was subsequently characterized. The contact angle measurements and energy dispersive analysis of X-ray （EDAX） show that the length and content of perfluoroalkyl side chains in the copolymers are crucial for the preparation of the film with low surface energy. At a given content of fluorinated monomers in the copolymers, the longer the perfluoroalkyl side chain, the larger the water contact angle of the copolymer films will be. On the other hand, the higher the content of fluorinated monomers, the lower the surface energy is. The water contact angle increases with the increase of the fluorinated monomer content and reaches a plateau at 3 wt% of fluorinated monomer content.展开更多

文摘With the popularity and widespread applications of electronics,higher demands are being placed on the performance of battery materials.Due to the large difference in electronegativity between fluorine and carbon atoms,doping fluorine atoms in nanocarbon-based materials is considered an effective way to improve the performance of used battery.However,there is still a blank in the systematic review of the mechanism and research progress of fluorine-doped nanostructured carbon materials in various batteries.In this review,the synthetic routes of fluorinated/fluorine-doped nanocarbon-based(CF_x)materials under different fluorine sources and the function mechanism of CF_x in various batteries are reviewed in detail.Subsequently,judging from the dependence between the structure and electrochemical performance of nanocarbon sources,the progress of CF_x based on different dimensions(0D–3D)for primary battery applications is reviewed and the balance between energy density and power density is critically discussed.In addition,the roles of CF_x materials in secondary batteries and their current applications in recent years are summarized in detail to illustrate the effect of introducing F atoms.Finally,we envisage the prospect of CF_x materials and offer some insights and recommendations to facilitate the further exploration of CF_x materials for various high-performance battery applications.

文摘The surface flashover of epoxy resin(EP) composites is a pivotal problem in the field of highvoltage insulation.The regulation of the interface between the filler and matrix is an effective means to suppress flashover.In this work,nano ZnO was fluorinated and grafted using lowtemperature plasma technology,and the fluorinated filler was doped into EP to study the DC surface flashover performance of the composite.The results show that plasma fluorination can effectively inhibit the agglomeration by grafting –CFxgroups onto the surface of nano-ZnO particles.The fluorine-containing groups at the interface provide higher charge binding traps and enhance the insulation strength at the interface.At the same time,the interface bond cooperation caused by plasma treatment also promoted the accelerating effect of nano ZnO on charge dissipation.The two effects synergistically improve the surface flashover performance of epoxy composites.When the concentration of fluorinated ZnO filler is 20%,the flashover voltage has the highest increase,which is 31.52% higher than that of pure EP.In addition,fluorinated ZnO can effectively reduce the dielectric constant and dielectric loss of epoxy composites.The interface interaction mechanism was further analyzed using molecular dynamics simulation and density functional theory simulation.

文摘A novel fluorinated polyurethane （FPU） with fluorine-containing pendent groups was prepared by using fluorinated polyether glycol （PTMG-g-HFP） as a soft segment, 1,6-hexamethylene diisocyanate （HDI） or toluene diisocyanate （TD1） as a hard segment and 1,4-butanodiol （BDO） as a chain extender. FTIR, ^1H NMR, ^13C NMR and GPC were used to characterize the structure of the fluorinated polyurethane. Thermal stabilities of the fluorinated polyurethane and the corresponding hydrogenated polyurethane were studied by TGA. XPS analysis at two different sampling depths for the fluorinated polyurethane was used to investigate the surface compositions of FPU. The results showed the fluorine enrichment on the surface of FPU.

文摘Ethyl-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)carbonate(ETFEC)is investigated as a solvent component in high-voltage electrolytes for LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4(LNMO).Our results show that the self-discharge behavior and the high temperature cycle performance can be significantly improved by the addition of 10%ETFEC into the normal carbonate electrolytes,e.g.,the capacity retention improved from 65.3%to 77.1%after 200 cycles at 60℃.The main reason can be ascribed to the high stability of ETFEC which prevents large oxidation of the electrolyte on the cathode surface.In addition,we also explore the feasibility of electrolytes using single fluoriated-solvents with and without additives.Our results show that the cycle performance of LNMO material can be greatly improved in 1 MLiPF6+pure ETFEC-solvent system with 2 wt%ethylene carbonate(EC)or ethylene sulfate(DTD).The capacity retention of the LNMO materials is 93%after 300 cycles,even better than that of carbonate-based electrolytes.It is shown that the additives are oxidized on the surface of LNMO particles and contribute to the formation of cathode/electrolyte interphase(CEI)films.This composite CEI film plays a crucial role in suppressing the serious decomposition of the electrolyte at high voltage.

文摘Lithium–sulfur(Li–S) batteries represent a "beyond Li-ion" technology with low cost and high theoretical energy density and should fulfill the ever-growing requirements of electric vehicles and stationary energy storage systems. However, the sulfur-based conversion reaction in conventional liquid electrolytes results in issues like the so-called shuttle effect of polysulfides and lithium dendrite growth, which deteriorate the electrochemical performance and safety of Li–S batteries. Optimization of conventional organic solvents(including ether and carbonate) by fluorination to form fluorinated electrolytes is a promising strategy for the practical application of Li–S batteries. The fluorinated electrolytes, owing to the high electronegativity of fluorine, possesses attractive physicochemical properties, including low melting point,high flash point, and low solubility of lithium polysulfide, and can form a compact and stable solid electrolyte interphase(SEI) with the lithium metal anode. Herein, we review recent advancements in the development of fluorinated electrolytes for use in Li–S batteries. The effect of solvent molecular structure on the performance of Li–S batteries and the formation mechanism of SEI on the cathode and anode sides are analyzed and discussed in detail. The remaining challenges and future perspectives of fluorinated electrolytes for Li–S batteries are also presented.

文摘For preparing fluorinated quinolone antibiotic medicine locally used in stomatology, simultaneous determination of norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin, and enoxacin was carried out by multiphase ion chromatography with fluorescence detection. Quinolone antibiotics were separated by Dionex OmniPac PAX-500 column with an eluent of 15 mmol/L H2SO4 and 35% methanol （v/v） at a flow-rate of 1.0 ml/min and detected with fluorescence with excitation and emission wave lengths of 347 ran and 420 ran respectively. The detection limits （S/N=3） of norfloxacin, ciprofloxacin and enoxacin were 50, 105 and 80 ng/ml respectively. The relative standard deviations of retention time, peak area and peak height were less than 1.1% and good linear relationship resulted. The developed method was applied to pharmaceutical formulations and biological fluids.
文摘The pressure drop during production in the near-wellbore zone of gas condensate reservoirs causes condensate formation in this area.Condensate blockage in this area causes an additional pressure drop that weakens the effective parameters of production,such as permeability.Reservoir rock wettability alteration to gas-wet through chemical treatment is one of the solutions to produce these condensates and eliminate condensate blockage in the area.In this study,an anionic fluorinated surfactant was synthesized and used for chemical treatment and carbonate rock wettability alteration.The synthesized surfactant was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis.Then,using surface tension tests,its critical micelle concentration(CMC)was determined.Contact angle experiments on chemically treated sections with surfactant solutions and spontaneous imbibition were performed to investigate the wettability alteration.Surfactant adsorption on porous media was calculated using flooding.Finally,the surfactant foamability was investigated using a Ross-Miles foam generator.According to the results,the synthesized surfactant has suitable thermal stability for use in gas condensate reservoirs.A CMC of 3500 ppm was obtained for the surfactant based on the surface tension experiments.Contact angle experiments show the ability of the surfactant to chemical treatment and wettability alteration of carbonate rocks to gas-wet so that at the constant concentration of CMC and at 373 K,the contact angles at treatment times of 30,60,120 and 240 min were obtained 87.94°,93.50°,99.79°and 106.03°,respectively.However,this ability varies at different surfactant concentrations and temperatures.The foamability test also shows the suitable stability of the foam generated by the surfactant,and a foam half-life time of 13 min was obtained for the surfactant at CMC.

文摘While serious stability issues impede the commercialization of perovskite solar cells(PSCs),two-dime nsional(2D)perovskites based on fluorinated bulky cations have emerged as more intrinsically stable materials.However,the influence of fluorination degree of the bulky aromatic cation on the per-formance of resulting PSCs has not been scrutinized.Here,2D perovskites(FxPEA)_(2)PbI_(4)(x=1,2,3,5)are grown in situ on the surface of the three-dime nsion al(3D)perovskite and dem on strate effective passivation of the surface defects of 3D perovskite.The power conversion efficiency(PCE)of the optimized devices were boosted from 20.75%for the control device to 21.09%,22.06%,22.74%and 21.86%for 2D/3D devices treated with 4-fluorophenethylamine iodide,3,5-difluorophenylethylamine iodide,2,4,5-trifluoroethylphenylethylamine iodide,and 1,2,3,4,5-pentafluorophenylethylamine iodide,respectively.We firstly reported two unexplored RP-type layered perovskites with F_(2)PEAI and F_(3)PEAI as bulky cations.The combined experimental and theoretical analysis revealed the reasons behind the various morphology,device performances,dynamic behavior,and humidity stability.The best performing F_(5)PEAI-treated device retaining 95.0%of its initial PCE under ambient atmosphere(with RH of 60%±5%)without encapsulation for 300 h storage.This work provides useful guidance for selecting fluorinated bulky cations with different molecular electronic properties,which will play an essential role in further improving the performance/stability of PSCs for the sake of further commercialization.

文摘The structure evolution of fluorinated graphite （CFx） upon the Li/Na intercalation has been studied by first- principles calculations. The Li/Na adsorption on single CF layer and intercalated into bulk CF have been calculated. The better cycling performance of Na intercalation into the CF cathode, comparing to that of Li intercalation, is attributed to the different strength and characteristics of the Li-F and Na-F interactions. The interactions between Li and F are stronger and more localized than those between Na and E The strong and localized Coulomb attraction between Li and F atoms breaks the C-F bonds and pulls the F atoms away, and graphene sheets are formed upon Li intercalation.

文摘Fluorinated poly（ethylene oxide） propyl-b-polydimethylsiloxane-b-propyl fluorinated poly（ethylene oxide） （FPEO-b-PDMS-b- FPEO） was synthesized by a free radical addition of carbon-hydrogen of polyether segments of poly（ethylene oxide） propyl-b- polydimethylsiloxane-b-propyl poty（ethylene oxide） （PEO-b-PDMS-b-PEO） to hexafluoropropylene （HFP） using tert-butyl peroxypivalate as an initiator. In order to reduce the possibility of side reaction, the protection and deprotection via silylation were used for the end-hydroxyls in PEO-b-PDMS-b-PEO chain. The structure of Intermediates and FPEO-b-PDMS-b-FPEO was confirmed by means of Fourier transform infrared and 1H NMR spectroscopy. The effects of amount of initiator, reaction temperature and time on free radical addition were investigated in detail. 2009 Xing Yuan Zhang.

文摘A series of copolymers comprising butylmethacrylate, styrene, butylacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate and perfluoroalkyl methacrylate were synthesized by the free radical polymerization using BPO as an initiator. The surface property of the copolymer films was subsequently characterized. The contact angle measurements and energy dispersive analysis of X-ray （EDAX） show that the length and content of perfluoroalkyl side chains in the copolymers are crucial for the preparation of the film with low surface energy. At a given content of fluorinated monomers in the copolymers, the longer the perfluoroalkyl side chain, the larger the water contact angle of the copolymer films will be. On the other hand, the higher the content of fluorinated monomers, the lower the surface energy is. The water contact angle increases with the increase of the fluorinated monomer content and reaches a plateau at 3 wt% of fluorinated monomer content.
