Materials Data on AgH6C4(NO)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

AgC4H6(NO)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to two equivalent N3- and four O2- atoms to form AgN2O4 octahedra that share corners with six CH2N2 tetrahedra. Both Ag–N bond lengths are 2.57 Å. There are two shorter (2.53 Å) and two longer (2.59 Å) Ag–O bond lengths. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent N3- and four O2- atoms. Both Ag–N bond lengths are 2.49 Å. There are two shorter (2.54 Å) and two longer (2.77 Å) Ag–O bond lengths. There are five inequivalent C+0.75+ sites. In the first C+0.75+ site, C+0.75+ is bonded to two N3- and two H1+ atoms to form CH2N2 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one AgN2O4 octahedra and corners with four CH2N2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 69°. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.48 Å. Both C–H bond lengths are 1.10 Å. In the second C+0.75+ site, C+0.75+ is bonded to two equivalent N3- and two equivalent H1+ atoms to form corner-sharing CH2N2 tetrahedra. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.49 Å. Both C–H bond lengths are 1.10 Å. In the third C+0.75+ site, C+0.75+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two O2- atoms. Both C–O bond lengths are 1.27 Å. In the fourth C+0.75+ site, C+0.75+ is bonded to two equivalent N3- and two equivalent H1+ atoms to form CH2N2 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent AgN2O4 octahedra and corners with four CH2N2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 75°. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.48 Å. Both C–H bond lengths are 1.10 Å. In the fifth C+0.75+ site, C+0.75+ is bonded to two N3- and two H1+ atoms to form CH2N2 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one AgN2O4 octahedra and corners with four CH2N2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 64°. Both C–N bond lengths are 1.48 Å. Both C–H bond lengths are 1.10 Å. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ag1+ and three C+0.75+ atoms. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded to one Ag1+ and three C+0.75+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing NAgC3 tetrahedra. There are six inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. In the third H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. In the fourth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. In the fifth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. In the sixth H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C+0.75+ atom. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Ag1+ and one C+0.75+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Ag1+ and one C+0.75+ 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.
