Operating Stresses and Their Effects on Degradation of LSM-Based SOFC Cathodes

The performance of solid oxides fuel cells (SOFCs) with four different Mn excess of lanthanum strontium manganite (LSM) -based cathodes were examined under different temperatures (1,000 °C, 900 °C), current densities (0, 380, and 760 mA cm -2 ), and cathode atmospheres (p O 2 )=0.1,0.15,0.21) for durations ranging from 58 to 1,008 h. Each yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte-supported “button” cell had a porous Ni/YSZ composite anode and a porous LSM/YSZ composite cathode. The cells’ output voltage versus time were recorded and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) measurements were performed every 24 hours. The total area specific resistance (ASR) was calculated from these measurements. The values of ASR from both EIS and LSV were comparable between each other but lower than that from durability test. Distribution of relaxation times (DRT) analysis was performed to investigate the electrochemical processes and their corresponding relaxation frequencies as well as their attributions to the total ASR. The series resistance and parallel resistance that obtained from the equivalent circuit fit of the Nyquist plot were higher at low temperature and low p O 2 regardless of LSM compositions. The area of the peaks derived from DRT analysis increased with time during individual tests. The microstructures of the tested cells were examined using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). Manganese oxide particles were observed near the cathode-electrolyte interface after prolonged (1,008 h) testing in air of a cell with LSM of 11% manganese excess, and after a short test (58 h) under low oxygen (p O 2 = 0.10) in a cell with LSM of 5% manganese excess. However, the role of MnOx in cell degradation is still unknown.

Catalysis of carbon monoxide methanation by deep sea manganate minerals

The catalytic activity of deep sea manganese nodule minerals for the methanation of carbon monoxide was measured with a microcatalytic technique between 200 and 460 degrees C. The manganate minerals were activated at 248 degrees C by immersion into a stream of hydrogen in which pulses of carbon monoxide were injected. Activation energies for the methanation reaction and hydrogen desorption from the manganate minerals were obtained and compared with those of pure nickel. Similar energy values indicate that the activity of the nodule materials for the reaction appears to be related to the amount of reducible transition metals present in the samples (ca. 11 wt.-%). Since the activity of the nodule minerals per gram is comparable to that of pure nickel, most of the transition metal ions located between manganese oxide layers appear to be exposed and available to catalyze the reaction.

Anaerobic methane oxidation coupled to manganese reduction by members of the Methanoperedenaceae

Abstract Anaerobic oxidation of methane (AOM) is a major biological process that reduces global methane emission to the atmosphere. Anaerobic methanotrophic archaea (ANME) mediate this process through the coupling of methane oxidation to different electron acceptors, or in concert with a syntrophic bacterial partner. Recently, ANME belonging to the archaeal family Methanoperedenaceae (formerly known as ANME-2d) were shown to be capable of AOM coupled to nitrate and iron reduction. Here, a freshwater sediment bioreactor fed with methane and Mn(IV) oxides (birnessite) resulted in a microbial community dominated by two novel members of the Methanoperedenaceae, with biochemical profiling of the system demonstrating Mn(IV)-dependent AOM. Genomic and transcriptomic analyses revealed the expression of key genes involved in methane oxidation and several shared multiheme c-type cytochromes (MHCs) that were differentially expressed, indicating the likely use of different extracellular electron transfer pathways. We propose the names “Candidatus Methanoperedens manganicus” and “Candidatus Methanoperedens manganireducens” for the two newly described Methanoperedenaceae species. This study demonstrates the ability of members of the Methanoperedenaceae to couple AOM to the reduction of Mn(IV) oxides, which suggests their potential role in linking methane and manganese cycling in the environment.

Voltage decay and redox asymmetry mitigation by reversible cation migration in lithium-rich layered oxide electrodes

Despite the high energy density of lithium-rich layered-oxide electrodes, their real-world implementation in batteries is hindered by the substantial voltage decay on cycling. This voltage decay is widely accepted to mainly originate from progressive structural rearrangements involving irreversible transition-metal migration. As prevention of this spontaneous cation migration has proven difficult, a paradigm shift toward management of its reversibility is needed. Herein, we demonstrate that the reversibility of the cation migration of lithium-rich nickel manganese oxides can be remarkably improved by altering the oxygen stacking sequences in the layered structure and thereby dramatically reducing the voltage decay. The preeminent intra-cycle reversibility of the cation migration is experimentally visualized, and first-principles calculations reveal that an O2-type structure restricts the movements of transition metals within the Li layer, which effectively streamlines the returning migration path of the transition metals. Furthermore, we propose that the enhanced reversibility mitigates the asymmetry of the anionic redox in conventional lithium-rich electrodes, promoting the high-potential anionic reduction, thereby reducing the subsequent voltage hysteresis. Our findings demonstrate that regulating the reversibility of the cation migration is a practical strategy to reduce voltage decay and hysteresis in lithium-rich layered materials.

Colossal Magnetoresistance without Mixed Valence in a Layered Phosphide Crystal

Materials with strong magnetoresistive responses are the backbone of spintronic technology, magnetic sensors, and hard drives. Among them, manganese oxides with a mixed valence and a cubic perovskite structure stand out due to their colossal magnetoresistance (CMR). A double exchange interaction underlies the CMR in manganates, whereby charge transport is enhanced when the spins on neighboring Mn 3+ and Mn 4+ ions are parallel. Prior efforts to find different materials or mechanisms for CMR resulted in a much smaller effect. Here an enormous CMR at low temperatures in EuCd 2 P 2 without manganese, oxygen, mixed valence, or cubic perovskite structure is shown. EuCd 2 P 2 has a layered trigonal lattice and exhibits antiferromagnetic ordering at 11 K. The magnitude of CMR (10(4)%) in as-grown crystals of EuCd 2 P 2 rivals the magnitude in optimized thin films of manganates. In this work, the magnetization, transport, and synchrotron X-ray data suggest that strong magnetic fluctuations are responsible for this phenomenon. The realization of CMR at low temperatures without heterovalency leads to a new regime for materials and technologies related to antiferromagnetic spintronics.

Probing the role of local tunnel variations in early-stage lithiation of α-MnO₂ nanowires via in situ TEM

Understanding lithium-ion transport in tunnel-structured manganese oxides is essential for designing high-performance lithium-ion battery electrode materials. Here, we elucidate the early-stage lithiation mechanism of potassium-stabilized α-MnO 2 nanowires using in situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) coupled with electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), high-resolution TEM (HRTEM), and geometric phase analysis (GPA). Real-time TEM imaging reveals clear volume expansion at the reaction front, while EELS analysis uncovers lithium-ion diffusion far beyond this region, where no visible expansion is observed, indicating fast, defect-assisted transport. GPA and HRTEM analyses show that localized tensile and compressive strain fields, originating from pre-existing local tunnel structural variations, persist after lithiation. The tensile-strained regions enable lithium-ion insertion with minimal lattice distortion, offering additional free volume that facilitates rapid lithium-ion accommodation ahead of the structural transformation. Our results demonstrate a local tunnel variation-mediated fast diffusion pathway that precedes bulk reaction, underscoring the critical role of local strain in enabling early-stage lithium transport. Given the structural versatility of MnO 2 and its ability to accommodate diverse atomic arrangements beyond the well-known tunnel phases (β-, γ-, δ-, λ-, R-phases), our findings highlight the importance of understanding and engineering local structural environments. This work provides fundamental insights into the interplay between defects, strain, and ion dynamics, and presents defect engineering as a promising approach to enhance both rate performance and structural stability in manganese-based cathodes.

Iridium Incorporation into MnO 2 for an Enhanced Electrocatalytic Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Here, we have investigated the structure and activity of electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) that had low loadings of Ir incorporated into the 2D layered MnO 2 , (birnessite, nominally δ-MnO 2 ) and the 3D MnO 2 (pyrolusite, β-MnO 2 ). The Ir-incorporated β-MnO 2 (Ir/β-MnO 2 ) electrocatalysts were prepared for the first time via a thermally induced phase transition of δ-MnO 2 containing 16-22 wt% Ir. This phase transition of δ-MnO 2 to β-MnO 2 was facilitated by the presence of Ir in the structure, as both Ir in IrO 2 and Mn in β-MnO 2 could adopt a thermodynamically favored rutile structure. Extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) of Ir/β-MnO 2 showed that the catalyst consisted of Ir substituted into the crystalline β-MnO 2 lattice. 22 wt% Ir/β-MnO 2 (60 μg Ir cm $\ ^{-2}_{geo}$) exhibited an OER overpotential (η) of 337 mV, lower than the η for commercial IrO 2 . This η was constant for 6 h, at 10 mA cm $\ ^{-2}_{geo}$ in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 . EXAFS, high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy (HAADF-STEM) and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) showed that 22 wt% Ir/β-MnO 2 had a strained structure containing ~41% Mn 3+ , an OER active species, along with a modified Ir bond covalency consisting of both Ir-O-Ir and Ir-O-Mn.

Metal-Mediated Directional Capping of Rod-Packing Metal–Organic Frameworks

We report two new rod-packing metal–organic frameworks (RPMOF) are constructed by regulating the in situ formation of the capping agent. In CPM-s7, carboxylate linkers extend 1D manganese-oxide chains in four additional directions, forming 3D RPMOF. The substitution of Mn 2+ with a stronger Lewis acidic Co 2+ , leads to an acceleration of the hydrolysis-prone sulfonate linker, resulting in presence of sulfate ions to reduce two out of the four carboxylate-extending directions, and thus forming a new 2D rod-packing CPM-s8. Density functional theory calculations and magnetization measurements reveal ferrimagnetic ordering of CPM-s8, signifying the potential of exploring 2D RPMOF for effective low-dimensional magnetic materials.

Multimodal, microspectroscopic speciation of legacy phosphorus in two US mid-Atlantic agricultural soils

To understand phosphorus (P) mobility in agricultural soils and its potential environmental risk, it is essential to directly measure solid phase P speciation. Often, bulk P K-edge X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy followed by linear combination fitting (LCF) is utilized to determine the solid P phases in soil. However, this method may limit results to only a few major phases. Additionally, XANES spectra for different P species may have very similar features, leading to an over- or underestimate of their contribution to LCF. Here, an improved P speciation by pairing multimodal microbeam-X-ray fluorescence (µ-XRF) mapping coupled with µ-XANES (microbeam-X-ray absorption near edge structure) analysis to directly speciate major and minor P phases on the micron scale is provided. We combined maps of both tender (P, sulfur, aluminum, and silicon) and hard energy (calcium, iron [Fe], and manganese) elements to evaluate the elemental co-locations with P. To better account for uncertainty assigning XANES peaks to individual compounds, a more quantitative fingerprinting by “spectral feature analysis” was completed. With this analysis, an R-factor is reported for the fit. These results were compared to traditional LCF. Pre-edge fitting results revealed the presence of a two-component pre-edge feature for phosphate adsorbed to ferrihydrite. Additionally, phytate co-precipitated with ferrihydrite (Phytate-Fe-Cop) had a pre-edge feature, indicating direct association with Fe. Lastly, a unique P species associated with manganese oxide was identified in the soil via multimodal mapping and µ-XANES. These results allow for better prediction of P dissolution and mobility.

Boosting High-Rate Zinc-Storage Performance by the Rational Design of Mn 2 O 3 Nanoporous Architecture Cathode

Manganese oxides are regarded as one of the most promising cathode materials in rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) because of the low price and high security. However, the practical application of Mn 2 O 3 in ZIBs is still plagued by the low specific capacity and poor rate capability. Herein, highly crystalline Mn 2 O 3 materials with interconnected mesostructures and controllable pore sizes are obtained via a ligand-assisted self-assembly process and used as high-performance electrode materials for reversible aqueous ZIBs. The coordination degree between Mn 2+ and citric acid ligand plays a crucial role in the formation of the mesostructure, and the pore sizes can be easily tuned from 3.2 to 7.3 nm. Ascribed to the unique feature of nanoporous architectures, excellent zinc-storage performance can be achieved in ZIBs during charge/discharge processes. The Mn 2 O 3 electrode exhibits high reversible capacity (233 mAh g -1 at 0.3 A g -1 ), superior rate capability (162 mAh g -1 retains at 3.08 A g -1 ) and remarkable cycling durability over 3000 cycles at a high current rate of 3.08 A g -1 . Moreover, the corresponding electrode reaction mechanism is studied in depth according to a series of analytical methods. These results suggest that rational design of the nanoporous architecture for electrode materials can effectively improve the battery performance.

Interfacial X-Ray Scattering from Small Surfaces: Adapting Mineral-Fluid Structure Methods for Microcrystalline Materials

Crystal truncation rod (CTR) X-ray diffraction is an invaluable tool for measuring mineral surface and adsorbate structures, and has been applied to several environmentally and geochemically important systems. Traditionally, the method has been restricted to single crystals with lateral dimensions >3 mm. Minerals that meet this size criterion represent a minute fraction of those that are relevant to interfacial geochemistry questions, however. Crystal screening, data collection, and CTR measurement methods have been developed for crystals of <0.3 mm in lateral size using the manganese oxide mineral chalcophanite (ZnMn 3 O 7 •3H 2 O) as a case study. Furthermore, this work demonstrates the feasibility of applying the CTR technique to previously inaccessible surfaces, opening up a large suite of candidate substrates for future study.

Effects of Co doping on the structure and physicochemical properties of hausmannite (Mn 3 O 4 ) and its transformation during aging

Hausmannite is a common low-valence manganese oxide mineral with a distorted spinel structure in surficial sediments. Although natural Mn oxides often contain various transition metal (TM) impurities, few studies have addressed the substitution mechanisms of TMs, such as cobalt (Co), with hausmannite and induced changes in the mineral physicochemical properties. In this study, Co-doped hausmannites with final Co/Mn molar ratios of 0.05 and 0.11 were synthesized and characterized by wet chemical analysis, powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transformed infrared spectra (FTIR), high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (XAFS). Co-doped samples have larger crystallite sizes and smaller specific surface areas than those of the hausmannite without Co. The Co cations exist in a mixed-valence of +3 and + 2. Powder XRD and acid dissolution experiments indicate that Co incorporates into the mineral structures, and increases the mineral structural stability. Co K-edge extended X-ray adsorption fine structure (EXAFS) analysis demonstrates that Co likely substitutes for lattice Mn(III). After aging at room temperature for three years, 14.1 ± 1.9% of pure hausmannite is transformed to manganite while only 2.6 ± 0.7% of manganite appears in the aged Co-doped sample with an initial Co/Mn molar ratio of 0.10. Finally, these results provide new insights into the incorporation mechanisms of TMs into low valence Mn oxides, and the stability of these minerals in natural environments.

A control oriented comprehensive degradation model for battery energy storage system life prediction

In order to ensure that stationary battery energy storage systems (BESSs) provide reliable energy buffering, both for power quality and economic purposes, the degradation must be considered. Cell degradation involves various side reactions and is highly dependent on its operating conditions. To accurately track cell degradation and predict its impact on battery behavior, a comprehensive physics-based degradation model based on an electrolyte phase-enhanced single particle (SP) model is developed. Key degradation physics, namely solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer formation and growth, Li plating on the graphite anode, and Mn dissolution on cathode of nickel-cobalt-manganese oxide (NMC622) are considered. The model is validated against experimental capacity data. The results reveal that the deposition rate of both SEI layer and Li metal increase as the charge voltage increases. At the cathode side, the solvent oxidation rate determines the Mn dissolution rate. As a result, the volume fraction of NMC622 in the cathode continually decreases at a gradually increasing rate.

Strain-Driven Surface Reactivity in Magnesium-Ion Battery Cathodes

Successful deployment of a Mg-ion battery requires cathodes that can achieve reversible Mg intercalation and high energy density. Recent theoretical and experimental studies indicated that the overall transport is likely limited by sluggish Mg transport at the cathode-electrolyte interface and not Mg diffusion through bulk. Here, in this work, we investigated the surface electrochemical activity of Mg ions by using a spinel-structured manganese oxide thin-film model system and in situ X-ray scattering. In combination with post-mortem microscopy analysis, we found that magnesium insertion was more favorable than subsequent extraction near the surface of the Mg x Mn 2 O 4 film, resulting in overmagnesiation, and eventually amorphization of the surface. This structural irreversibility and high overpotential required for Mg extraction could explain significant voltage hysteresis and Mg surface enrichment previously observed in bulk cathodes. Density functional theory calculations suggested that the tendency for the Mg surface enrichment could be associated with Mg diffusion kinetics, which varies with the strain state evolved due to constrained film volume change during Mg insertion and extraction. Particularly, out-of-plane Mg migration was predicted to be favorable in the tensile strain rather than in the compressive case.

Particle-Scale Reduction Analysis of CuFeMnO 4 with Hydrogen for Chemical Looping Combustion

In this work CuFeMnO 4 (copper iron manganese oxide) oxygen carrier was characterized using DSC/TGA, in-situ XRD, and SEM-EDS to gain a clear elucidation of the chemical looping combustion (CLC) reactions with H2 which is a component of synthesis gas. A reaction model which best described the experimental TGA reaction data was selected from the analysis. Intrinsic rate of reaction parameters obtained from the study could be used for designing a reactor for scale-up. A model with combined contributions from nucleation and growth model and dimensional phase boundary model was found to exhibit the best correlation with the experimental data. The analysis provided validation of intrinsic reaction rates and other rate parameters.

Theoretical Investigation of the Hydrogenation of Cyclohexene Catalyzed by Supported Single-Atom Sites on Redox Noninnocent LiMn 2 O 4 and Li 2 Mn 2 O 4 Surfaces

Here, the tuning of catalyst activity via stereoelectronic modulation of the active-site structure remains a grand challenge in heterogeneous catalysis. In homogeneous catalysis, the redox noninnocent ligands can be introduced to organometallic fragments to donate electrons to the metal center and fine-tune the catalytic activity. Analogously, lithium-ion battery materials, such as lithium manganese oxide (LMO), lithium titanium oxides (LTO), etc., can serve as redox noninnocent catalyst support to modulate the electronic structures of the active site via lithiation, hence tuning the catalytic activity of supported active sites. Experimentally, the Ni single-atom site was supported on LiMn 2 O 4 via oxidative grafting and exhibited no catalytic activity toward the hydrogenation of cyclohexene. After introducing additional Li into the catalyst support forming Li 2 Mn 2 O 4 , the Ni single-atom site becomes active, with the catalytic rates increasing as a function of the lithiation for Li/Mn ratios >0.9. In this paper, density functional theory (DFT) calculations are performed to study the Ni site structure via X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) simulations and investigate the electronic properties of Ni single-atom site before and after the addition of intercalated lithium in the LMO spinel structure. Furthermore, the study of the reaction mechanism is also carried out to understand the thermodynamically and kinetically favored pathways. XANES simulation suggests that the Ni single-atom site is likely to stay in the Li channel of the spinel support structure and form an octahedral structure. After Li intercalation, the Ni site becomes less positively charged, indicating the partial reduction of the Ni site. The simulated reaction energy profile over the LiMn 2 O 4 support exhibits high-energy barriers (1.07 eV) for the hydrogenation of cyclohexene; however, the Li 2 Mn 2 O 4 support is able to better stabilize low-coordinated ion sites and improve ion mobility, leading to lower overall energy barriers (0.64 eV). The reduced and low-coordinated ion site, thus, can better stabilize the reaction intermediates and promote hydrogenation reaction. Similarly, other transition metal ions (Fe, Co, and Cu) are also considered over the LiMn 2 O 4 and Li 2 Mn 2 O 4 catalyst supports for hydrogenation reaction.

Influence of Electrolyte Additives on Interfacial Stability of Manganese-Rich Lithium-Ion Battery Cathodes

Affordable, long-lasting energy storage has become critical to support increased electricity demand in recent years. Cobalt-free, lithium- and manganese-rich lithium nickel manganese oxide (LMR-NM) cathodes stand to reduce cost and supply-chain concerns associated with traditional cobalt-containing cathodes for lithium-ion batteries by leveraging more earth-abundant materials; however, they have shown issues with long-term cycling stability. Here, we investigate lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB), tris(trimethylsilyl) phosphite (TMSPi), and vinylene carbonate (VC) electrolyte additives for their ability to improve cycling performance of LMR-NM (0.3 Li 2 MnO 3 + 0.7 LiMn 0.5 Ni 0.5 0 2 ) cells. Cryogenic scanning transmission electron microscopy (cryo-STEM) with electron energy loss spectroscopy enables the construction of a structure–function relationship between cathode electrolyte interphase (CEI) characteristics and the electrochemical performance of cells aged with these additives. We find the combination of 2 wt % TMSPi + 1 wt % LiDFOB performs better than any single additive, achieving a 28% improvement in specific capacity over the baseline electrolyte after long-term cycling. We attribute this to LiDFOB mitigating Mn ion dissolution, with cryo-STEM showing Mn stabilized up to the CEI surface, coupled with improved CEI structure and chemistry enabled by TMSPi, evidenced by a moderately thick (∼7–15 nm) CEI that appears to protect against further electrolyte reactions with the particle. These results, achieved through site-specific nanoscale characterization, directly reveal mechanisms through which electrolyte engineering can improve the performance of earth-abundant cathodes, enabling informed development of more affordable and reliable batteries to meet future energy storage needs.

Discharging Behavior of Hollandite α-MnO 2 in a Hydrated Zinc-Ion Battery

Hollandite, α-MnO 2 , is of interest as a prospective cathode material for hydrated zinc ion batteries (ZIBs); however, the mechanistic understanding of the discharge process remains limited. Herein, a systematic study on the initial discharge of α-MnO 2 cathode under hydrated environment was reported using density functional theory (DFT) in combination with complementary experiments, where the DFT predictions well described the experimental measurements on discharge voltages and manganese oxidation states. According to the DFT calculations, both protons (H + ) and zinc ions (Zn 2+ ) contribute to the discharging potentials of α-MnO 2 observed experimentally, where the presence of water plays an essential role during the process. This study provides valuable insights into the mechanistic understanding of the discharge of α-MnO 2 in hydrated ZIBs, emphasizing the crucial interplay among the H 2 O molecules, the intercalated Zn 2+ or H + ions, and the Mn 4+ ions on the tunnel wall to enhance the stability of discharged states and, thus, the electrochemical performances in hydrated ZIBs.
