Materials Data on Ti5O9 by Materials Project

Abstract

Ti5O9 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Ti+3.60+ sites. In the first Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–55°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–2.18 Å. In the second Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–55°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.18 Å. In the third Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–61°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.12 Å. In the fourth Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–61°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.13 Å. In the fifth Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–51°. There are two shorter (1.99 Å) and four longer (2.02 Å) Ti–O bond lengths. In the sixth Ti+3.60+ site, Ti+3.60+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–54°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.04 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ti+3.60+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OTi4 trigonal pyramids. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.60+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ti+3.60+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OTi4 trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ti+3.60+ atoms to form distorted edge-sharing OTi4 trigonal pyramids. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three Ti+3.60+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.60+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.60+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.60+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.60+ 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.
