Abstract

Sb10F37SbF6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Sb10F37 clusters and two SbF6 clusters. In each Sb10F37 cluster, there are five inequivalent Sb+3.91+ sites. In the first Sb+3.91+ site, Sb+3.91+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four F1- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–F bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.27 Å. In the second Sb+3.91+ site, Sb+3.91+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four F1- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–F bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.52 Å. In the third Sb+3.91+ site, Sb+3.91+ is bonded to five F1- atoms to form distorted SbF5 square pyramids that share a cornercorner with one SbF6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SbF5 square pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. There are a spread of Sb–F bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.47 Å. In the fourth Sb+3.91+ site, Sb+3.91+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six F1- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–F bond distances ranging from 1.90–1.99 Å. In the fifth Sb+3.91+ site, Sb+3.91+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form corner-sharing SbF6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sb–F bond distances ranging from 1.89–1.97 Å. There are nineteen inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the seventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the eighth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the ninth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the tenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the eleventh F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the twelfth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the thirteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the fourteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the fifteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the sixteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two Sb+3.91+ atoms. In the seventeenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the eighteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the nineteenth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In each SbF6 cluster, Sb+3.91+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six F1- atoms. There is four shorter (1.92 Å) and two longer (1.93 Å) Sb–F bond length. There are three inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb+3.91+ atom.

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.
