Preparation of illite coated geomaterial microfluidic surfaces: Effect of salinity and heat treatment

Unique characteristics of clay (e.g., high surface area, deficiency in positive charges) make any clay abundant shales a good source of adsorbed gas. However, the presence of clay in porous media can also affect shale rock's producibility. The clay-water interaction can cause significant swelling and fines migration in the formation and impair the overall hydrocarbon recovery from shale. Geomaterial micromodels, developed by functionalizing traditional glass or PDMS surfaces with geomaterials (e.g., calcite, Quartz, clay), can represent the physicochemical properties of the natural porous media and have been used during the last few years to understand and evaluate the solid-fluid physicochemical interactions. Here, this study focuses on developing a clay-coated geomaterial surface and investigates the effect of base fluid's salinity on clay adsorption to the glass surface. Glass capillary tubes and straight channel borosilicate glass micromodels are coated with Illite clay to represent the pore-scale clay chemistry of Caney Shale, a Mississippian unconventional play in Southern Oklahoma, USA. 10 wt% of Illite clay slurries made with brines of four different salinities are used to coat the glass-capillary tubes to understand the effect of salinity in clay adsorption on the glass surface and overall coating quality. To achieve a stable coating and evaluate the impact of heat treatment on coating's stability, straight channel glass flow cells coated with Illite clay are heat-treated at low (25 °C) and high temperature (125 °C), and the results are compared with an untreated coated surface. Flooding tests were carried out with brines of different salinities on the coated surface to evaluate the stability of the coating. The experimental results indicated a strong relationship between the brine's salinity and the adsorption of clay particles on the glass surface. An increase in brine concentration resulted in improved adsorption of clay particles on the glass surface. Experiments involving heat treating the glass surface following the coating demonstrated significant improvement in the stability of the coating.

Carbon Nanotube and Graphene Oxide Reinforced Composites for Lightning Strike Protection of Composite Structures

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) composites have become the primary materials in the aerospace industry. Future transportation means, such as urban air mobility (UAM), will be employing CFRP structures. However, lightning strike damage on composite structures is a serious concern. CFRP composites possess low through-thickness electrical conductivity (≈ 1 S/m), which can cause extreme resistive heat in the event of lightning strikes. Research on polymeric lightning strike protection has gained momentum in the past few years. Researchers have studied various conductive fillers to improve the CFRP performance against lightning strikes. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide (GO) have been studied as future lightning Strike Protection (LSP) materials the most. The use of CNT and GO-based composites has shown improved mechanical properties and improved electrical conductivity of the composites. Researchers investigated CNTs and GO as the fillers to the matrix system, sizing the carbon fibers and the surface coating on top of the CFRP surface. This chapter highlights the remarkable improvement in the lightning damage suppression of CNT and GO-based composites and their structural applications. Special attention is given to their potential use as LSP material in future aircraft.

Hydriding, Oxidation, and Ductility Evaluation of Cr-Coated Zircaloy-4 Tubing

Accident-tolerant fuel concepts have been developed recently in diverse research programs. Recent research has shown clear advantages of Cr-coated Zr cladding over bare cladding tubes regarding oxidation behavior under the design basis loss-of-coolant accident condition. However, limited data are available about the hydriding behavior of the Cr coating. For that purpose, Cr-coated Zricaloy-4 tubes were tested to investigate the effects of hydriding, oxidation, and postquench ductility behavior on coated Zr cladding. A high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) process was used to produce a high-density coating on the Zircaloy-4 tube surface. Coated and uncoated Zircaloy-4 tube specimens underwent one-sided hydriding in a tube furnace filled with pure hydrogen gas at 425 °C. The tubing specimen ends were sealed with Swagelok plugs before the hydriding runs. For uncoated specimens, H analysis of the hydrided specimens indicated that the H content increased as the test time and initial pressure increased. However, almost no change was observed for the coated specimens that were hydrided under the same test conditions. After one-sided hydriding, the hydrided coated and uncoated specimens were exposed to steam at high temperatures for two-sided oxidation studies to simulate accident conditions. The coated specimens showed a slower oxidation: oxygen pickup was 50% lower than the uncoated specimens tested under the same conditions. Ring compression testing was performed to evaluate the embrittlement behavior of the Cr-coated specimens after hydriding and oxidation. The results indicated that the HiPIMS coating provides excellent protection from hydriding and oxidation at high temperatures.

A Versatile Method for Creating Ultrathin Films of Polyzwitterions with Antifouling Properties

Protein repellent (i.e., antifouling) properties of ultrathin polymeric films have been ascribed to the formation of a dense layer of adsorbed polymers, which causes steric hindrance to protein adsorption on underlying substrates. The antifouling properties of the films are hypothesized to be independent of polymer hydrophilicity based on previous studies involving uncharged polymers. Here, to test the hypothesis and extend it to the realm of charged polymers, we have developed a grafting method for creating ultrathin layers of polyzwitterions on solid surfaces. To demonstrate the efficacy of this method, poly[1-(3-sulfopropyl-1)-2-vinylpyridinium betaine] (P2VPPS) was synthesized via free-radical polymerization and immobilized onto surfaces by using a photoreactive benzophenone derivative as the cross-linker, which was covalently bonded to either quartz or Si/SiOx substrates through a silane anchor. We found that ultrathin films with thicknesses of less than 10 nm can be obtained in dry states using 365 nm ultraviolet (UV) cured/cross-linked surface coatings. These films were found to be hydrophilic and undergo structural rearrangements in the presence of water. The antifouling performance of the films was evaluated using Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAO1 bacterium as the fouling agent and exhibited antifouling properties with a kinetic control via the coating method (i.e., spin-coating and drop-casting). In particular, the surface area coverages due to the PAO1 cell attachment on the quartz substrates coated with P2VPPS were found to be ∼5% and ∼0% for the spin-coated and drop-casted films, respectively, after 4 h. These results show that the grafting method can be used to generate surfaces with antifouling properties based on ultrathin films of polyzwitterions.

Low RF loss DC conductive ceramic for RF windows

Charging of RF windows has historically been problematic, frequently resulting in damage to the window severe enough that the window needs to be replaced. Many attempts have been made to prevent charging and therefore improve window lifetime, the most successful and common of which is coating the window with titanium nitride (TiN). Surface coatings such as TiN rely on the secondary electron yield of the coating material being lower than that of the ceramic window material, reducing the number of electrons emitted from a variety of mechanisms. An alternative approach is to introduce a small amount of DC conductivity to the ceramic itself, turning the traditionally insulating window into a mildly conductive one. This allows any charge on the surface of the window to drain rather than build until a discharge happens. A magnesium titanate ceramic has been developed with a small DC conductivity and used to make RF windows. Several window assemblies have been produced and tested, including 1.3 GHz waveguide and 650 MHz coaxial designs. The results of the conductive ceramic window test program will be presented.

The role of Li doping in layered/layered Na x Li y Ni 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 intergrowth electrodes for sodium ion batteries

Here, the layered NaTMO 2 (TM = Ni, Fe, Mn) materials with the O3-type structure are attractive as positive electrodes for sodium ion batteries because of their high theoretical capacity. Additionally, Li doping in these materials has been shown to offer substantial enhancements to their electrochemical properties by promoting the formation of intergrowth structures, which are combinations of specific phases. However, the mechanism by which the intergrowth modifies the electrochemical properties is often unclear. Systematic variation of Li content in Na x Li y Ni 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 (NFM-Li y ) was conducted to identify its role in structural modification and electrochemical performance. Li contents of 0.15 and greater generate a layered/layered Na-O3/Li-O’3 intergrowth structure. 7 Li and 23 Na nuclear magnetic resonance and x-ray absorption spectroscopy identify that when the total solubility for alkali ions in the layered structure is exceeded, Li continues to form the Li-O’3 phase while the excess Na forms residual sodium compounds such as Na 2 O. Higher Li content is associated with improved capacity retention in the initial cycles from the superior stability of the mechanically linked NaO3/Li-O’3 structure that suppresses the P3 to OP2 phase transition during charge. However, high Li contents are associated with increased rates of parasitic side reactions that reduce long-term cycling stability. These side reactions are associated with the instability of the cathode-electrolyte interphase, which can be partially mitigated by atomic layer deposition (ALD) coating with alumina, which significantly enhances the capacity retention and Coulombic efficiency over many cycles. Overall, we find that the layered/layered Na-O3/Li-O’3 intergrowth structure is able to provide structural stability and suppress undesired phase transformations but is overwhelmed by the increased reactivity of the surface if not protected by surface coating.

Effects of varying gelatin coating concentrations on RANKL induced osteoclastogenesis

Here, we assessed the effects of varying concentrations of gelatin coating on Receptor Activator of Nuclear Factor κ-B Ligand (RANKL)-induced RAW264.7 murine macrophage differentiation into osteoclast (OC) via osteoclastogenesis. The microstructures of coating surfaces with different concentrations of gelatin were examined by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Increased gelatin coating concentrations led to decreased gel rigidity but increased surface adhesion force attenuated OC differentiation and the decreased actin ring formation in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. The decreased actin ring formation is associated with decreased lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1) activity and bone resorption in the differentiated OCs with different gelatin coating concentrations as compared to the cells differentiated without gelatin coatings. In addition, increasing concentrations of gelatin coating attenuated the medium TGF-β1 protein levels and the expression levels of TGF-β and type-I (R1) and type-II (R2) TGF-β receptors in OCs, suggesting the gelatin-induced suppression of TGF-β signaling for the regulation of RNAKL-induced OC differentiation. Taken together, these findings showed that changes in gelatin coating concentrations, which were associated with altered gel thickness and substrate rigidity, might attenuate TGF-β signaling events to modulate OC differentiation and concomitant actin ring formation and bone matrix resorption in RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis.

Evaluation of the interaction between SiC, pre-oxidized FeCrAlMo with aluminized and pre-oxidized Fe-8Cr-2W in flowing PbLi

We report dissimilar materials interactions are a major concern when liquid metals are used as a working fluid. To simulate a dual-coolant PbLi blanket, chemical vapor deposited (CVD) SiC, pre-oxidized FeCrAlMo (APMT) and pre-oxidized aluminized coating on Fe-8Cr-2 W (F82H) specimens were exposed to flowing commercial Pb-17at.%Li with a peak temperature of 650 °C in a pre-oxidized APMT thermal convection loop (TCL) for 1000 h. Similar to prior results in static PbLi, the coated F82H showed small mass changes and limited degradation of room-temperature tensile properties. After exposure, the α-Al 2 O 3 on the surface coated F82H reacted with the PbLi to form LiAlO 2 . However, no significant Al coating loss or interdiffusion was observed. Mass transfer was observed between the APMT, TCL and the SiC specimens. Fe, Cr and Ni were dissolved into the molten flowing PbLi and transported through the TCL to react with the SiC specimens. Compared to a prior experiment with a majority of bare FeCrAl specimens that were exposed in a TCL with a peak temperature of 700 °C for 1000 h, the SiC reaction was reduced to only a few microns of carbides and silicides. Oxygen dissolved in the molten PbLi sustained the formation of an Al 2 O 3 scale on the surface of the coating and induced the formation of a thin surface SiO 2 layer on the surface of the SiC.

Mastering the synergy between Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 electrode and electrolyte: A must for Na-ion cells

Sodium-ion batteries are emerging as suitable energy storage devices for special applications such as high-power devices with the advantages of being cheaper and more sustainable than the Li-ion equivalents. The sodium ion cells consisting of polyanionic Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 - hard carbon electrodes exhibit high power rate capabilities but limited cycle life, especially at high temperatures. To circumvent this drawback we herein conducted in-depth analyses of the origins of structural degradations occurring in Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 electrodes upon long cycling. Vanadium dissolution with associated parasitic reactions is identified as one of the major reasons for cell failure. Its amount varies depending on the electrolyte, with NaTFSI-based electrolyte showing the least vanadium dissolution as the TFSI - anion decomposes without producing acidic impurities, in contrast to the NaPF 6 -based electrolyte. The dissolved vanadium species undergoes oxidation and reduction processes at the Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 2 F 3 and HC electrodes, respectively, with the electrochemical signature of these processes being used as a fingerprint to identify state of health of the 18650 cells. Here, having found that surface reactivity is the primary cause of vanadium dissolution we provide methods to mitigate it by combining surface coating and optimized electrolyte formulation.

The Role and Substitution of Cobalt in the Cobalt‐Lean/Free Nickel‐Based Layered Transition Metal Oxides for Lithium Ion Batteries

Here, the Nickel-based layered transition metal oxide cathode represented by NCM (LiNi x Co y Mn z O 2 , x+y+z=1) and NCA (LiNi x Co y Al z O 2 , x+y+z=1) is widely used in the electric vehicle market due to its specific capacity and high working potential, in which Cobalt (Co) plays a huge role in improving the structural stability during the cycle. However, the limited supply of Co, due to its scarcity and the influence of geopolitics, poses a significant constraint on the further advancement of the Nickel-based layered transition metal oxide cathode in the field of energy storage. In this paper, the mechanism of Co in the Nickel-based layered transition metal oxides is reviewed, including its critical role for structural stability such as the inhibition of cationic mixing and the release of lattice oxygen et al. Subsequently, it outlines various strategies to enhance the performance of Co-lean/free materials, such as ion doping, including single-ion doping and multi-ion co-doping, and various surface coating strategies, so as to eliminate the adverse effects of Co loss on materials. Ultimately, this paper offers a glimpse into the promising future of Cobalt-free strategies for high performance of Nickel-based layered transition metal oxides.

Improved adhesion of polyurethane-based nanocomposite coatings to tin surface through silane coupling agents

Conformal coatings with higher adhesion strength is critical for mitigating the growth of whiskers from the pure tin (Sn) or Sn-rich surfaces of the Pb-free electronics. Silane coupling agents have the ability to form a durable bond between polymeric coatings and metallic materials. The main goal of this paper is to investigate the effect of silane agents on the adhesion behavior of polyurethane (PU), polyurethane acrylate (PUA) and both coatings filled with silicone rubber (SR) nanoparticles on the tin solder pads. It was found that an isocyanate-based silane provided excellent adhesion for PU and PU + SR coatings and an acrylic-based silane for PUA and PUA + SR coatings on the tin surface. This was due to the reaction bond formation between the silane coupling agent and the coating. Hence, the selection of silane coupling agents with the organofunctional group similar to the coating material is crucial to improve the adhesion properties of the coating.

Surface Stabilization with Fluorine of Layered Ultrahigh-Nickel Oxide Cathodes for Lithium-Ion Batteries

High-nickel layered oxide cathodes are key to meet the demands of the electric vehicle industry because of their high specific capacity. However, commercialization of these materials is hindered by critical challenges, such as phase transitions, particle cracking, aggressive surface reactivity, and thermal instability. Cation doping along with surface coating has proven to be an effective way to circumvent some of these issues to a large extent. Herein, fluorine coating is employed on a high-nickel Li[Ni 0.95 Mn 0.015 Co 0.02 Al 0.01 Mg 0.005 ]O 2 (NMCAM) cathode via a solution route. Detailed structural and electrochemical analyses indicate fluorine largely decorates the surface at low enough calcination temperatures. The cathode with 1 mol % fluorine coating exhibits a capacity retention of 71% after 500 cycles as compared to 59% for the control sample when cycled to a high cutoff voltage of 4.3 V in a full cell configuration with graphite anode. Post-mortem analysis of cycled electrodes reveals that surface reactivity is a major contributor to capacity fade as compared to particle cracking. Fluorine coating reduces surface reactivity and the depth to which rock-salt phase is formed on the surface during cycling. The thermal stability is also enhanced after fluorine coating as the material shows less heat release at high states of charge. Furthermore, this work demonstrates an effective, economical, and scalable way to stabilize the surface with fluorine and enhance the electrochemical performance of high-nickel cathodes.

Advanced nanoscale characterization of aluminum nanoparticles with modified surface morphology via atmospheric helium and carbon monoxide plasmas

Aluminum nanoparticles (nAl) have the potential as energetic additives in explosive/propellant formulations. Scalable methodologies must be pursued to mitigate the inactive amorphous alumina shell surrounding the active aluminum (Al) core with modified surface morphology and chemistry for increased combustion effects. This work explores the feasibility of making reactive core/shell nAl with thinned oxide shells and modified surface coatings via a two-step atmospheric plasma surface treatment process in a custom dielectric barrier discharge plasma reactor. The commercial nAl of nominal average size similar to 40-60nm was first treated with helium (He) followed by He/carbon monoxide (CO) plasmas for different durations. The resultant samples were characterized via high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectra. HRTEM images revealed sporadic patchy gamma -alumina deposits on particle surfaces and in gaps among particles for all samples, suggesting the non-uniform plasma effects of the He/CO glow. Nanoscale chemical analyses via scanning transmission electron microscopy elemental mapping and x-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy were further performed. Although no carbon-associated structure appeared in electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) spectra, the presence of carbonaceous materials was confirmed as a thin dispersive layer evenly distributed on the nAl surface suggesting either its amorphous nature or is present at a level insufficient to generate satisfactory EELS spectra. The trend of intensity profiles for key elements acquired by drawing lines across a single particle on the elemental maps confirmed that carbonaceous materials only existed on the surface and they were most likely carboxylates that increased with increased He/CO treatment duration, as evident by FTIR results. Finally, this work demonstrated the success of atmospheric plasma-treated reactive nAl with comprehensively characterized surface features via advanced microscopy and spectroscopy.

Enhanced Performance of Silicon Anodes through Hybrid Surface Engineering

Silicon (Si) is a promising anode material for nextgeneration lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to its high theoretical capacity. However, Si-containing anodes typically suffer from unacceptably short lives because of the unrestricted growth of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). Here, in this study, hybrid surface coatings are developed to stabilize the SEI in high loading pure Si anodes using atomic and molecular layer deposition. The coatings, consisting of LiF paired with lithicone, create an ionically conductive surface that enhances the capacity retention, rate performance, and longevity. Careful binder selection helps demonstrate the full utility of the coatings by enabling high loading electrodes to cycle continuously at current densities of 1200 mA/g Si . Uncoated controls, in comparison, fail within just 10 cycles at lower loadings. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy are used to provide supporting evidence of the coating composition and efficacy. The data indicate that our lithicone coating is converted to Li 2 CO 3 upon cycling contributing to favorable LiF/Li 2 CO 3 interfaces that enhance the space-charge effect at the active material’s surface. When applied to electrodes made with thermally stable binders and increasingly higher loadings (approaching 5 mAh/cm 2 ), ion transport through the bulk electrode, rather than SEI growth, is shown to be the limiting factor. Furthermore, data suggests a favorable interaction between lithicone precursors and poly(acrylic acid) binders mitigates thermal decomposition at higher temperatures. The work presented here represents the successful realization of composite coatings containing LiF/Li 2 CO 3 components to stabilize high-loading Si anodes. This work helps inform advanced surface engineering strategies to achieve highly reversible, high-capacity Si anodes capable of fast charging for high-performance LIBs.

Surface dependence of electronic growth of Cu(111) on MoS 2

Scanning tunneling microscopy shows that copper deposited at room temperature onto a freshly exfoliated MoS 2 surface forms Cu(111) clusters with periodic preferred heights of 5, 8, and 11 atomic layers. These height intervals correlate with Fermi nesting regions along the necks of the bulk Cu Fermi surface, indicating a connection between physical and electronic structures. Density functional theory calculations of freestanding Cu(111) films support this as well, predicting a lower density of states at the Fermi level for these preferred heights. This is consistent with other noble metals deposited on MoS 2 that exhibit electronic growth, in which the metal films self-assemble as nanostructures minimizing quantum electronic energies. Here, we have discovered that it is critical for the metal deposition to begin on a clean MoS 2 surface. If copper is deposited onto an already Cu coated surface, even if the original film displays electronic growth, the resulting Cu film lacks quantization. Instead, the preferred heights of the Cu clusters simply increase linearly with the amount of Cu deposited upon the surface. We believe this is due to different bonding conditions during the initial stages of growth. Newly deposited copper would bond strongly to the already present copper clusters, rather than the weak bonding, which exists to the van der Waals terminated surface of MoS 2 . The stronger bonding with previously deposited clusters hinders additional Cu atoms from reaching their lowest quantum energy state. The interface characteristics of the van der Waals surface enable surface engineering of self-assembled structures to achieve different applications.

High-energy X-ray phase analysis of CMAS-infiltrated 7YSZ thermal barrier coatings: Effect of time and temperature

Calcium–magnesium–alumino-silicate (CMAS) particulates enter the aero-engine in a sandy environment, melt and infiltrate into 7 wt% yttria-stabilized zirconia (7YSZ) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs), reducing their lifetime. This leads to chemical degradation in 7YSZ accompanied by tetragonal to monoclinic phase transformation upon cooling. In this work, electron-beam physical vapor deposition coatings were infiltrated with a synthetic CMAS. Here, synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements show that CMAS infiltration at 1250 °C has about 43% higher monoclinic phase volume fraction (PVF) at the coating surface compared to 1225 °C and remains consistently higher throughout the coating depth. Additionally, the increase in annealing time from 1 to 10 h results in a 31% higher monoclinic phase at the surface. Scanning electron microscopy revealed the presence of globular monoclinic phases corresponding spatially with the above findings. These results resolve the impact of time and temperature on CMAS infiltration kinetics which is important for mitigation.
