Materials Data on CuPb5Se4(ClO3)4 by Materials Project

Abstract

CuPb5Se4(O3Cl)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu2+ is bonded in a distorted octahedral geometry to four O2- and two equivalent Cl1- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 2.02 Å. Both Cu–Cl bond lengths are 2.80 Å. There are three inequivalent Pb+3.60+ sites. In the first Pb+3.60+ site, Pb+3.60+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six O2- and two Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.49–3.09 Å. There are one shorter (3.02 Å) and one longer (3.43 Å) Pb–Cl bond lengths. In the second Pb+3.60+ site, Pb+3.60+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four O2- and four Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.82 Å. There are a spread of Pb–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.92–3.18 Å. In the third Pb+3.60+ site, Pb+3.60+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.56–2.70 Å. There are two inequivalent Se2+ sites. In the first Se2+ site, Se2+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Se–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.76 Å. In the second Se2+ site, Se2+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.71 Å) and two longer (1.77 Å) Se–O bond length. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Pb+3.60+ and one Se2+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+, two Pb+3.60+, and one Se2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+, two Pb+3.60+, and one Se2+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two Pb+3.60+ and one Se2+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two Pb+3.60+ and one Se2+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Pb+3.60+ and one Se2+ atom. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to four Pb+3.60+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cu2+ and two Pb+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.
