Materials Data on NiC14S2N2O3 by Materials Project

Abstract

(C)6NiC8N2S2O3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four 1-butene molecules, four ethyne molecules, and two NiC8N2S2O3 clusters. In each NiC8N2S2O3 cluster, Ni2+ is bonded to two N3-, one S2-, and three O2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NiSN2O3 octahedra. There are one shorter (2.11 Å) and one longer (2.12 Å) Ni–N bond lengths. The Ni–S bond length is 2.38 Å. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.16 Å. There are eight inequivalent C1+ sites. In the first C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C1+ and one N3- atom. The C–C bond length is 1.39 Å. The C–N bond length is 1.26 Å. In the second C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C1+ atoms. There is one shorter (1.31 Å) and one longer (1.37 Å) C–C bond length. In the third C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.26 Å. In the fourth C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two C1+ atoms. The C–C bond length is 1.36 Å. In the fifth C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.41 Å. In the sixth C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one C1+ atom. In the seventh C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.41 Å. In the eighth C1+ site, C1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two C1+ atoms. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ni2+ and two C1+ atoms. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ni2+ and two C1+ atoms. There are two inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one S2- and three O2- atoms. The S–S bond length is 2.02 Å. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.45–1.57 Å. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Ni2+ and one S2- atom. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to one Ni2+ and one S2- atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni2+ and one S2- atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S2- 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.
