Materials Data on CoPdN5Cl5O by Materials Project

Abstract

CoPdN3OCl5N2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four nitrogen molecules and two CoPdN3OCl5 ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. In each CoPdN3OCl5 ribbon, Co2+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to three N+0.20+ atoms. There are a spread of Co–N bond distances ranging from 1.70–2.00 Å. There are two inequivalent Pd4+ sites. In the first Pd4+ site, Pd4+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four Cl1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.32 Å) and two longer (2.33 Å) Pd–Cl bond lengths. In the second Pd4+ site, Pd4+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four Cl1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.31 Å) and two longer (2.35 Å) Pd–Cl bond lengths. There are three inequivalent N+0.20+ sites. In the first N+0.20+ site, N+0.20+ is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 1.17 Å. In the second N+0.20+ site, N+0.20+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Co2+ and two Cl1- atoms. There is one shorter (1.70 Å) and one longer (1.91 Å) N–Cl bond length. In the third N+0.20+ site, N+0.20+ is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one Cl1- atom. The N–Cl bond length is 1.62 Å. O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.20+ atom. There are five inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pd4+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N+0.20+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Pd4+ and one N+0.20+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Pd4+ and one N+0.20+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Pd4+ 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.
