Materials Data on AsS(IF3)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

AsS(IF3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent As2- sites. In the first As2- site, As2- is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six F1- atoms. There is two shorter (1.77 Å) and four longer (1.78 Å) As–F bond length. In the second As2- site, As2- is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six F1- atoms. There is four shorter (1.77 Å) and two longer (1.79 Å) As–F bond length. S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one S2-, two I5+, and three F1- atoms. The S–S bond length is 1.86 Å. There are one shorter (2.86 Å) and one longer (3.24 Å) S–I bond lengths. There are a spread of S–F bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.32 Å. There are two inequivalent I5+ sites. In the first I5+ site, I5+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one S2-, one I5+, and one F1- atom. The I–I bond length is 2.63 Å. The I–F bond length is 2.89 Å. In the second I5+ site, I5+ is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one S2- and one I5+ atom. There are six inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- atom. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- atom. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- and one S2- atom. In the fourth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- and one S2- atom. In the fifth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- and one I5+ atom. In the sixth F1- site, F1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one As2- and one S2- 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.
