Materials Data on Re3Pb3O10 by Materials Project

Abstract

Re3Pb3O10 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Re+4.67+ sites. In the first Re+4.67+ site, Re+4.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ReO6 octahedra that share corners with six ReO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent PbO8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent PbO7 hexagonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–43°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.01 Å. In the second Re+4.67+ site, Re+4.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ReO6 octahedra that share corners with six ReO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent PbO8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent PbO7 hexagonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–41°. There is two shorter (1.98 Å) and four longer (1.99 Å) Re–O bond length. There are two inequivalent Pb2+ sites. In the first Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted PbO7 hexagonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent PbO7 hexagonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent PbO8 hexagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one PbO7 hexagonal pyramid, and edges with six ReO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.77 Å. In the second Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded to eight O2- atoms to form PbO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share edges with two equivalent PbO8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent PbO7 hexagonal pyramids, and edges with six ReO6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.44 Å) and six longer (2.70 Å) Pb–O bond lengths. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Re+4.67+ and two Pb2+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Pb2+ atoms to form corner-sharing OPb4 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Re+4.67+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Re+4.67+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Re+4.67+ and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Re+4.67+ and two equivalent 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.
