Materials Data on B10(Pb2O7)3 by Materials Project

Abstract

B10(Pb2O7)3 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.37–1.39 Å. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.35–1.41 Å. In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.37–1.41 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.53 Å. In the fifth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.53 Å. There are three inequivalent Pb2+ sites. In the first Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.51 Å. In the second Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.95 Å. In the third Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–3.00 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one B3+ and three Pb2+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one B3+ and two Pb2+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one B3+ and two Pb2+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one B3+ and three Pb2+ atoms.

Cyclic moisture reactivation of calcium sorbents for long duration thermochemical energy storage

The transition to a flexible and reliable energy infrastructure, using electro-thermal energy generation technologies such as geothermal, concentrated solar power, and nuclear, usually demands simultaneous advancement of thermal energy storage (TES) to support on-demand electricity generation and industrial applications while mitigating the inherent intermittency of renewable energy sources and power outages from direct energy generation. Among TES technologies, thermochemical energy storage (TCES) based on calcium looping emerges as a compelling high-power energy storage candidate due to its high reaction enthalpy, compatibility with elevated operating temperatures, and abundance of low-cost materials. However, the long-term durability of calcium-based sorbents for TCES is hindered by surface sintering and particle aggregation, leading to performance degradation over repeated thermal cycles. This study explores a moisture hydration-based strategy to regenerate a degraded calcium sorbent and mitigate performance degradation for long duration TCES. The addition of moisture transforms calcium oxide into calcium hydroxide and produces intercalation water layers, associated with a regenerated surface area and reduced calcium oxide crystallite size. Both these effects are beneficial in restoring the sorbents' reactivity for carbonization. Additionally, an optimized hydration-assisted reactivation protocol balances the recovered energy storage capacity with heating penalty required for moisture removal from hydrated samples, resulting in an enhanced energy storage capacity up to 176% compared to benchmark sorbents that undergo cycling without reactivation after 60 cycles. In conclusion, these results highlight the potential of hydration-assisted reactivation to enhance the long-term performance of TCES, providing an effective pathway to advancing electro-thermal storage technologies.
