Materials Data on Re2PbC(NO5)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

(Re2PbCNO10)2N2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four ammonia molecules and two Re2PbCNO10 clusters. In each Re2PbCNO10 cluster, there are two inequivalent Re6+ sites. In the first Re6+ site, Re6+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.79 Å. In the second Re6+ site, Re6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form ReO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent PbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 34–35°. There are a spread of Re–O bond distances ranging from 1.72–1.80 Å. Pb2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted PbO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent ReO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.36 Å. C4+ is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one N1+ and one O2- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.32 Å. The C–O bond length is 1.29 Å. N1+ is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one C4+ atom. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pb2+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re6+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Re6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Pb2+ and one C4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re6+ and one Pb2+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pb2+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Re6+ and one Pb2+ 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.
