Materials Data on FeMo3PtN by Materials Project

Abstract

Mo3FePtN crystallizes in the cubic P2_13 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mo is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to three equivalent Fe, three equivalent Pt, and two equivalent N atoms. There are a spread of Mo–Fe bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.94 Å. There are a spread of Mo–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.81–2.87 Å. There are one shorter (2.12 Å) and one longer (2.13 Å) Mo–N bond lengths. Fe is bonded to nine equivalent Mo and three equivalent Pt atoms to form distorted FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, corners with nine equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra, edges with three equivalent NMo6 octahedra, faces with four equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent NMo6 octahedra. All Fe–Pt bond lengths are 2.54 Å. Pt is bonded to nine equivalent Mo and three equivalent Fe atoms to form distorted PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra, corners with nine equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, edges with three equivalent NMo6 octahedra, faces with four equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent NMo6 octahedra. N is bonded to six equivalent Mo atoms to form distorted NMo6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent NMo6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, edges with three equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent FeMo9Pt3 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent PtFe3Mo9 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 25°.

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.
