Environmental Durability Assessment and Development of Subcomponent Test Methods for Advanced Materials in Marine Energy Applications

Marine energy developers are beginning to rely more heavily on advanced composite materials for their load-bearing structures. Understanding how these materials respond and degrade in harsh marine environments is a complex problem. Much research has been performed at smaller laboratory scales to understand the fundamental physical and chemical degradation mechanisms, but little structural testing research has been performed at larger scales to understand how these physical and chemical interactions scale and how they should be accounted for in the design process. The Advanced Materials project is a multilaboratory research collaboration that addresses these issues with the intention of reducing risks and barriers to marine energy developers wanting to adopt advanced composite materials. The National Laboratory of the Rockies has been playing a leading role in developing larger-scale testing infrastructure and test methods to validate complex numerical degradation models and standardize testing procedures to do so. This paper reviews past structural testing activities, how they have grown into current research activities, and how they will continue to evolve to directly address industry needs. This paper covers key research areas - large-scale water absorption and subsequent structural validation testing, qualification of bolted and adhesive connections, and combined submerged fatigue testing at increasing scales. It provides insights into the complex requirements for testing infrastructure and test method development to effectively qualify materials and certify marine energy structures for harsh marine environments. This research program paves the way for better guidance and standardization within the industry when adopting advanced composite materials.

Hierarchical Biogenic-Based Thermal Insulation Foam

Biogenic-based foam, renowned for its sustainable and eco-friendly properties, is emerging as a promising thermal insulating material with the potential to significantly enhance energy efficiency and sustainability in building applications. However, its relatively high thermal conductivity, large-pore configurations, and energy-intensive manufacturing processes hinder its widespread use. Here, we report on the scalable, one-pot synthesis of biogenic foams achieved by integrating recycled paper pulp and in situ nanoporous silica formation, resulting in a hierarchical structure comprising both micropores and nanopores. Ambient solvent-exchange drying can preserve the pore structure by reducing the capillary forces during the drying process. The resulting flame-retardant and hydrophobic foam exhibits low density (0.110 g/cm 3 ), ideal porosity (70.69%), excellent thermal conductivity (0.033 W/(m·K)), and impressive compressive strength (1.48 MPa at 80% strain). Furthermore, this recyclable biogenic foam, with its hierarchical pore structure and environmental durability, shows great potential for energy-efficient building applications.

Low-cost, Highly Efficient and Fast Thermally Pressed Scalable Carbon-based Planar Perovskite Solar Cells

This Final Technical Report summarizes work completed under Award Number DEEE0009833, titled "Low-cost, Highly Efficient and Fast Thermally Pressed Scalable Carbon-based Planar Perovskite Solar Cells." The project addressed the central technical problem that carbon-electrode perovskite solar cells (C-PSCs) can reduce electrode costs and improve environmental durability, but they have historically lagged noble-metalcontact devices due to poor carbon/perovskite contact, high carbon-electrode resistance, imperfect hole extraction, and insufficient operational stability. The Statement of Project Objectives (SOPO), therefore, required systematic engineering of thermally pressed carbon-based planar perovskite solar cells by improving the carbon/perovskite interface quality, improving carbon-electrode conductivity, and further increasing device stability. The work advanced understanding of carbon-based perovskite photovoltaics by connecting device performance to three coupled mechanisms: interfacial recombination at the perovskite/hole-transport-layer/carbon stack; lateral and vertical transport losses in carbon contacts; and instability driven by moisture, heat, illumination, ion migration, and slow/variable manufacturing steps.

Building Envelope Characteristics in Cold Climates

Prescriptive guidelines for thermal insulation in the design of buildings in cold climates have traditionally been derived by a holistic consideration of climatic factors, energy policy, environmental policy, and economics. The differences in thermal barrier requirements in buildings across the arctic and subarctic regions of the world are influenced as much by the differing priorities of the governing bodies that set these requirements as by actual physical demands and conditions. Usually, national requirements for building envelope characteristics such as thermal insulation values, building envelope airtightness, vapor permeability, building mass, and detailing are based on economics, durability, and environmental considerations. Consideration of thermal energy system resilience provides a new paradigm through which to view the optimization of these parameters. The paper describes specifics of construction in cold climates; summarizes best practice requirements for the building envelope characteristics for buildings located in cold and arctic climate of the United States, Canada, and Scandinavian countries; provides some details illustrating how to implement these requirements; and compares the effects of different levels of building envelope efficiency and building mass on indoor air temperature decay when heat supply is interrupted. The paper also presents results from experts' discussions during the consultation forum "Thermal Energy Systems Resilience in Cold/Arctic Climates" (ERDC 2020) and research conducted under the IEA EBC Annex 73, the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) Project "Technologies Integration to Achieve Resilient, Low-Energy Military Installations," and U.S. Army Program project 633734T1500 under Military Engineering Technology Demonstration. The paper complements the Cold-Climate Design Guide (ASHRAE 2015) with a focus on the resilience of thermal energy systems.

Understanding Environmental Barrier Coating Lifetimes and Performance for Industrial Gas Turbines

Hydrogen or hydrogen blend fuels are expected to replace natural gas in land-based industrial gas turbines (IGTs) to support a greener power economy. Silicon carbide (SiC) base ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) are considered for replacement of Ni-based superalloys to facilitate future efficiency improvements. SiC CMCs require environmental barrier coatings (EBCs) to mitigate volatilization from high-temperature steam, thus making the EBC lifetime critical information for identifying CMC component lifetimes. Here, the goal of this project is to determine the maximum bond coating temperature underneath the EBC for achieving an IGT component lifetime goal of 25,000 h, which is far greater than current CMC component lifetime requirements for aeroturbine applications. To provide data for the lifetime model, laboratory testing used atmospheric plasma-sprayed rare-earth silicate EBCs on monolithic SiC substrates with an intermediate Si bond coating. Specimens exposed to 1-h thermal cycles in flowing air–steam environments and reaction kinetics were assessed from 700 °C to 1350 °C by measuring the thickness of the thermally grown silica scales. The silica growth and phase transformation appear critical in predicting EBC lifetime and several strategies have been explored to reduce the oxide growth rate and improve EBC durability at elevated temperatures. Advanced characterization using Raman spectroscopy has helped clarify this system.

Holistic comparison of environmental barrier coating material candidates through design of a figure of merit

The first figure of merit for environmental barrier coating (EBC) materials was designed through a ranking system for material properties pertaining to established EBC failure modes in service. Seven past, present, and novel EBC candidate materials were used in the figure of merit design: SiO 2 , Ba 0.75 Sr 0.25 Al 2 Si 2 O 8 (BSAS), HfSiO 4 , Yb 2 Si 2 O 7 , Yb 2 SiO 5 , Yb 2 O 3 , and YbPO 4 . Utilizing compiled data from the literature, the presented figure of merit verified Yb 2 Si 2 O 7 as the state-of-the-art candidate with optimal EBC properties and inferred that YbPO 4 should be considered as a potentially viable EBC material candidate. Further, the figure of merit allows for a holistic comparison of EBC candidates and informs experimental and computational search efforts for next-generation complex EBCs. Clear knowledge gaps found through this work include CaO–MgO–Al 2 O 3 –SiO 2 (CMAS)-resistant coatings, EBC lifetimes before delamination, and oxidant diffusion rates in relevant EBC microstructures. It was shown that while some materials show promise for solving a single key failure mode for EBCs (i.e., CMAS reactivity), a community-wide goal should be placed on materials development to achieve acceptable resistance against all major failure modes, which are interconnected. Novel compositionally complex EBC materials, in addition to layered EBC architectures, show promise for the optimization of material properties for long-lifetime EBCs in combustion environments.

Synthetic Lubricants Derived from Plastic Waste and their Tribological Performance

The energy efficiency, mechanical durability, and environmental compatibility of all moving machine components rely heavily on advanced lubricants for smooth and safe operation. Herein an alternative family of high-quality liquid (HQL) lubricants was derived by the catalytic conversion of pre- and post-consumer polyolefin waste. The plastic-derived lubricants performed comparably to synthetic base oils such as polyalphaolefins (PAOs), both with a wear scar volume (WSV) of 7.5×10 -5 mm -3 . HQLs also performed superior to petroleum-based lubricants such as Group III mineral oil with a WSV of 1.7×10 -4 mm -3 , showcasing a 44% reduction in wear. Furthermore, a synergistic reduction in friction and wear was observed when combining the upcycled plastic lubricant with synthetic oils. Additionally, life cycle and techno-economic analyses also showed this process to be energetically efficient and economically feasible. This novel technology offers a cost-effective opportunity to reduce the harmful environmental impact of plastic waste on our planet and to save energy through reduction of friction and wear-related degradations in transportation applications akin to synthetic oils.

Robust Unencapsulated Perovskite Solar Cells Protected by a Fluorinated Fullerene Electron Transporting Layer

The emergent perovskite photovoltaics technology faces challenges like the long-term durability combining moisture, thermal, and photo stresses that prevents them from competing with established technologies. In this work, we introduce a series of new fluorinated fullerenes as an electron-transporting layer (ETL) for robust perovskite photovoltaics that deliver a high power conversion efficiency of 21.27% with substantially improved durability against environmental stressing. The hydrophobic nature of the new fullerene protects the unencapsulated perovskite cell with stability over 1400 h in 85% relative humidity. Notably, the unencapsulated device maintained 80% of their original performance (T-80) after being immersed in water for over 10 min. Detailed characterizations suggest that the fluorinated fullerene can immobilize the cations in perovskites and passivate the surface traps. Therefore, the T-80 lifetime of the devices under constant illumination reached 1920 h. On the basis of the accelerated test, we estimate a lifetime approaching 10 years with encapsulation. The successful demonstration of the new ETL can stimulate further research and momentum for future photovoltaic technology development.

Mesh-like structure integrated core-shell-shell nanocomposites for enhanced stability and performance in carbon capture

Carbon capture is essential for mitigating climate change, yet most sorbents struggle to combine high capacity with chemical stability. Here we report core-shell-shell (CSS) nanocomposites that integrate adsorption efficiency with exceptional robustness. The design couples a metal-organic framework (MOF) core, which enriches local CO 2 concentration, with a polyamine shell that is reorganized into a porous, ordered network through entanglement with an outer covalent organic framework (COF) shell. This hierarchical architecture enables dual amine functionalization via sequential “click” and Schiff-base reactions, achieving a CO 2 uptake of 3.4 mmol g −1 at 1 bar. The COF outer layer also acts as a protective barrier, suppressing humidity interference and doubling cycling stability under simulated flue gas. Remarkably, the nanocomposites maintain structural integrity after one week in strongly acidic (3 M HNO 3 ) or basic (NaOH, pH=14) environments, underscoring their chemical resilience. By uniting high capacity, cycling durability, and environmental tolerance, this CSS strategy offers a versatile platform for next-generation carbon capture materials.

Raman spectroscopic characterization of SiO 2 phase transformation and Si substrate stress relevant to EBC performance

To accurately model the long-term durability of environmental barrier coatings (EBCs), a more complete understanding of the phase composition and transformations of the thermally grown oxide SiO 2 (TGO) is desired. For the TGO formed during thermal cycling in steam, cristobalite formation and the subsequent β- to α-cristobalite transformation has been identified as a potentially life-limiting mechanism. In this study, Raman micro-spectroscopy was used to quantify the cristobalite transformation on a polycrystalline Si coupon that was exposed to steam at 1350°C for 100 h. The phase transformation was mapped at 200–260°C on the TGO surface at different ramp rates using a heating stage and a micro-positioning stage. The stress in the Si substrate was also determined using Raman spectroscopy by measuring the stress induced peak shift. The α→β phase transformation produced a 300–500 MPa tensile stress in the Si substrate, which compared well to the stress predicted from the volumetric expansion of the cristobalite. In conclusion, quantifying the phase transformation and residual stress are critical tools in developing the next generation of high performance EBCs.

Advanced High-Strength Steel - Basics and Applications in the Automotive Industry

Challenged to improve safety and fuel economy, automakers continually search for new materials to meet high standards. Several factors drive the material R&D and selection for automotive applications, including safety, fuel efficiency, environmentalism, manufacturability, durability, and quality. In the highly competitive automotive industry, cost is an extremely important factor in material selection. As the motivation to reduce the mass of vehicles continues to grow, automakers seek to maximize the efficiency of their materials selection. Materials in automotive applications are selected to minimize weight while meeting key criteria, including crash performance, stiffness, and forming requirements. Since the 1920s, steel has been the material of choice for automakers worldwide. The weight percentage of steel used in vehicles relative to other materials has grown from around 50% in the early 1980s to about 60% in 2010 for North American light vehicles. Today, steel makes up around 65% of an average automobile’s weight and is the backbone of the entire vehicle. On average, that is 900 kg of steel used per vehicle. To further enhance passenger safety, vehicle performance, and fuel efficiency, reducing the weight of vehicles has become one of the top priorities for the automotive industry. Advanced high-strength steels (AHSSs) are a new generation of steel grades that provide much higher strength and other advantageous properties than other materials while maintaining the high formability required for manufacturing. AHSSs help engineers meet requirements for safety, efficiency, emissions, manufacturability, durability, and quality at a low cost. The relevance of AHSSs is quickly increasing in the automotive industry, and AHSSs are the key material for vehicle mass reduction. Different types of AHSS help parts meet the varied performance demands in different areas of the vehicle, including both the crumple zone and passenger compartment.

Utilizing coal-derived solid carbon materials towards next-generation smart and multifunction pavements

This project focused on developing an eco-friendly, multifunctional pavement system, called Coal-Derived Carbon Enabled Smart Pavement (CDC-SP), using coal-derived materials. The system utilizes coal-derived pyrolyzed char as a key component to create electrically conductive asphalt concrete for smart pavements that offer self-heating, self-sensing, and self-healing capabilities. These functions are made possible by the conductive properties of coal-char, which enable Ohmic heating for snow and ice deicing, piezoresistivity for self-sensing, and induction heating for self-healing of cracks caused by stress or aging. The team successfully created CDC-SP samples with over 50% coal char composition, demonstrating desirable mechanical properties such as rutting resistance, moisture susceptibility, and cracking resistance. These samples also exhibited strong electrical and thermal conductivity, making them ideal for heating applications. Extensive tests confirmed the pavement’s effectiveness in melting ice and snow and maintaining durability under environmental conditions. The CDC-SP presents a promising approach to integrating U.S. domestic coal resources into infrastructure projects, providing environmental and economic benefits by enhancing pavement performance while utilizing low-cost coal-derived materials. Further research and compliance with industry standards are recommended before commercial scaling.

Measurement Acceptance Region (MAR) Assessment Results Based On Sludge Batch 10 Projections from December 2021, February 2022 and August 2022

The Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) is currently preparing to initiate processing of Sludge Batch 10 (SB10), which is comprised of material from Tanks 11H, 13H, 15H, and 26F, Alternate Feed Stock-2 and Sodium Reactor Experiment material from H-Canyon. Frit 473 (8B 2 O 3 -8Li 2 O-5Na 2 O-79SiO 2 , in weight percent) was recommended for sludge-only (SO) and coupled processing with the Salt Waste Processing Facility (SWPF) based on previous assessments of SB10 projections with the DWPF Product Composition Control System (PCCS) glass property models and their associated Measurement Acceptance Region (MAR) constraints. Due to the lower processing rate of Sludge Batch 9 (SB9), the heel in Tank 40 is anticipated to be greater than 40 inches at the projected start of SB10 processing to meet the upcoming Accelerated Basin Deinventory addition dates in Tank 51 for Sludge Batch 11. In December 2021 and February 2022, Savannah River Remediation System Planning provided updated SB10 Tank 40 blend projections based on heels of 74 inches, 84 inches, 94 inches and 103.4 inches. Savannah River Mission Completion (SRMC) subsequently pursued Wash Cycle Y to further reduce the total sulfur in the sludge batch and increase processing flexibility at DWPF. In August 2022, SRMC System Planning provided an updated SB10 Tank 40 blend projection with a 76 inch-heel representing Decant Y2 and 60 kilogallons of bearing water inleakage that is anticipated during the Tank 51 to Tank 40 transfer. The objectives of this task were to: • Determine the impact on the operating windows for SO and coupled processing • Determine whether any composition gaps exist between the already completed SB10 variability study and the reprojected SB10 glass composition region • Compare the SB10 reprojected glass composition region to the DWPF PCCS model development and validation ranges to ensure that compositional gaps do not exist between the data sets. This report documents the results of these evaluations. Calculation-based frit assessments were performed using the DWPF PCCS glass property models and their associated MAR constraints. Evaluated parameters for coupled processing included the following transfer volumes per Sludge Receipt and Adjustment Tank batch: 5700 gallons of Tank 40 sludge, 2400-4500 gallons of the SWPF monosodium titanate (MST) and sludge solids stream, and 15,000 gallons of strip effluent. Based on these MAR assessment results, Frit 473 remains viable for SB10 processing. A target waste loading (WL) of 36% is possible for SO operation and single strike (0.4 g/L MST) coupled processing up to 600 mg/L of SB9 insoluble sludge solids at a nominal transfer volume of ~2800 gallons. Increasing the single strike transfer volume to 4500 gallons may reduce the maximum WL below 40%. Operating windows are 12 percentage points for SO processing and 14-16 percentage points for coupled processing. Frit 625 allows for a target WL of 36% and is acceptable for use during the SB9 to SB10 transition to deplete remaining inventory as needed. Operating windows are 8 percentage points for SO processing and 12-14 percentage points for coupled processing. Predictive PCCS evaluations performed at DWPF will provide insight into batch-specific acceptability at desired WLs for compositions having expected oxide ratios during processing versus the extreme vertices (corner points) evaluated in this study. The reprojected SB10 glass composition region generally overlaps the previously evaluated SB10 variability study composition region. Thus, the minor composition shift of these updated SB10 projections indicates that no additional glasses are necessary to demonstrate acceptability relative to the chemical durability of the Environmental Assessment benchmark glass and predictability using the current PCCS models for durability. Based on a comparison of the PCCS model development and validation data to the reprojected SB10 glass composition region, the viscosity and liquidus temperature models will reliably predict SB10 compositions. No additional glasses are necessary to demonstrate predictability of these models.

Cement and concrete as carbon sinks: Transforming a climate challenge into a carbon storage opportunity

Cement and concrete, while traditionally recognized as the main contributors to anthropogenic CO 2 emissions, also have untapped capacity to serve as substantial and scalable carbon sinks. This perspective examines how engineered mineral carbonation can transform cement-based materials into functional carbon storage systems, generating both environmental and economic value. We review the fundamental mechanisms of CO 2 uptake in cementitious systems, highlighting current limitations in reaction kinetics, phase control, and durability under varying environmental conditions. Emphasis is placed on the utilization of alkaline industrial residues and emerging magnesium-based cements, which offer synergistic pathways for carbon sequestration and circular resource use. We further assess the performance trade-offs associated with CO 2 uptake and the feasibility of deploying these technologies on industrial scales. A strategic roadmap is proposed that integrates scientific innovation, regulatory alignment, and carbon accounting in the life cycle to accelerate the adoption of carbon-storing concrete. This perspective provides a comprehensive framework to advance cement and concrete as engineered carbon sinks and supports the transition to a climate-positive construction industry.

Bio-inspired redox mediated electrolyte for high performance flexible supercapacitor applications over broad temperature domain

For practical supercapacitors, recent advances in electrolytes have diminished long-standing problems such chemical stability, low ionic conductivity and limited electrochemical performance. Herewith, we communicate a facile method to produce anhydrous redox-active Bio-inspired electrolytes for flexible supercapacitors with application over a broad temperature range. The glycerol (Gly) gel electrolyte consists of various fractions of potassium hydroxide (KOH) and redox active unit, i.e., ammonium molybdate, (NH 4 ) 2 MoO 4 (abbreviated as Mo), in the anhydrous state. The doped glycerol matrix acts as a framework that provides a stable gel electrolyte, forming hierarchical pathway for ion diffusion. The developed gel network with Gly-KOH-MoX (X = 3, 5, 10, and 15%, w/w) provides an effective route to carry the ions onto the pores of the electrodes. The supercapacitor with Gly-KOH5-Mo10 gel provides a specific capacitance of 328 F g –1 , and the same device achieved an energy density of 45.6 Wh kg –1 at a power density of 497 W kg –1 . In addition, the supercapacitor maintained extraordinary cyclic robustness and wide temperature tolerance. Thus, the low cost and environmentally benign, cyclic durability of Gly-KOH-Mo makes these gel electrolytes a potential candidate for use in various energy storage devices.
