Herein, ammonia-modified graphene (AG) sheets decorated with Fe3O4 nanoparticles (AG/Fe3O4) as a magnetically recoverable photocatalyst by a simple in situ solution chemistry approach. First, we have functionalized graphene oxide (GO) sheets by amide functional group and then Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) are doped onto the functionalized GO surface. The AG/Fe3O4 nanocomposite showed efficient photocatalytic activity towards degradation of phenol (92.43%), 2-nitrophenol (2-NP) (98%) and 2-chlorophenol (2-CP) (97.15%) within 70–120 min. Consequently, in case of photo-Fenton degradation phenomenon, 93.56% phenol, 98.76% 2-NP and 98.06% of 2-CP degradation were achieved within 50–80 min using AG/Fe3O4 nanocomposite under sunlight irradiation. The synergistic effect between amide functionalized graphene and Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) enhances the photocatalytic activity by preventing the recombination rate of electron-hole-pair in Fe3O4 NPs. Furthermore, the remarkable reusability of the AG/Fe3O4 nanocomposite was observed up to ten cycles during the photocatalytic degradation of these phenolic compounds.1 aBoruah, Purna, K.1 aSharma, Bhagyasmeeta1 aKarbhal, Indrapal1 aShelke, Manjusha, V.1 aDas, Manash, R.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/ammonia-modified-graphene-sheets-decorated-magnetic-fe3o4-nanoparticles-photocatalytic-and02081nas a2200193   4500008004100000245013800041210006900179260000800248300001600256490000600272520133300278100002401611700002201635700003001657700002501687700002201712700002101734856013201755       2017                        eng d00aFacile synthesis of unique cellulose triacetate based flexible and high performance gel polymer electrolyte for lithium ion batteries0 aFacile synthesis of unique cellulose triacetate based flexible a  cOCT  a34773-347820 v93 aLithium ion batteries (LIBs) with polymer based electrolytes have attracted enormous attention due to the possibility of fabricating intrinsically safer and flexible devices. However, economical and eco-friendly sustainable technology is an oncoming challenge to fulfill the ever increasing demand. To circumvent this issue, we have developed a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) based on renewable polymers like cellulose triacetate and poly (polyethylene glycol methacrylate) p(PEGMA) using a photo polymerization technique. Cellulose triacetate offers good mechanical strength with improved ionic conductivity, owing to its ether and carbonyl functional groups. It is observed that the presence of an open network has a critical impact on lithium ion transport. At room temperature, GPE PC exhibits an optimal ionic conductivity of 1.8 x 10(-3) S cm(-1) and transference number of 0.7. Interestingly, it affords an excellent electrochemical stability window up to 5.0 V vs Li/Li+. GPE PC shows a discharge capacity of 164 mAhg(-1) after the first cycle when evaluated in a Li/GPE/LiFePO4 cell at 0.5 C-rate. Interfacial compatibility of GPE PC with lithium metal improves the overall cycling performance. This system provides a guiding principle toward a future renewable and flexible electrolyte design for flexible LIBs (FLIBs).1 aNirmale, Trupti, C.1 aKarbhal, Indrapal1 aKalubarme, Ramchandra, S.1 aShelke, Manjusha, V.1 aVarma, Anjani, J.1 aKale, Bharat, B.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/facile-synthesis-unique-cellulose-triacetate-based-flexible-and-high-performance-gel-polymer01732nas a2200169   4500008004100000245015600041210006900197260000800266300001600274490000600290520104100296100002201337700002701359700002401386700002201410856013001432       2017                        eng d00aImpact of rare-earth metal oxide (Eu 2 O 3 ) on the electrochemical properties of a polypyrrole/CuO polymeric composite for supercapacitor applications0 aImpact of rareearth metal oxide Eu 2 O 3 on the electrochemical   cMAR  a20037-200480 v73 aA ternary composite of polypyrrole/copper oxide/europium oxide (PPY/CuO/Eu2O3), synthesized via a facile in situ chemical oxidative polymerization method, exhibits the maximum specific capacitance of 320 F g⁻¹ at the current density of 1 A g⁻¹. Incorporation of the rare-earth metal oxide Eu2O3 in the PPY/CuO matrix can promote charge transportation in the resulting ternary nanocomposite by enhancing the porosity. The interconnected mesoporous networks reduce the internal resistance and the charge transfer resistance (Rct) of the composite electrode material. Moreover, the incorporation of Eu2O3 in the PPY/CuO provides support to the fragile polymer backbone resulting in an excellent cycle stability and a markedly enhanced thermal stability. These together with the exhibition of an excellent coulombic efficiency demonstrates that incorporation of rare earth metal oxide can play a significant role in improving the performance of a polymeric composite opted as an electrode material for high-performance supercapacitor.1 aMajumder, Mandira1 aChoudhary, Ram, Bilash1 aThakur, Anukul., K.1 aKarbhal, Indrapal  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/impact-rare-earth-metal-oxide-eu-2-o-3-electrochemical-properties-polypyrrolecuo-polymeric01802nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245012200055210006900177260000800246300001200254490000800266520092000274653001901194653004701213653002201260653001901282100002601301700002601327700002201353700003101375700002501406856012901431       2018                        eng d  a0008-622300aElectrochemical capacitive energy storage in PolyHIPE derived nitrogen enriched hierarchical porous carbon nanosheets0 aElectrochemical capacitive energy storage in PolyHIPE derived ni  cMAR  a287-2950 v1283 a<p>Porous and interconnected electrodes based on carbon nanoarchitectures offer comprehensive advantages of large specific surface area and high porosity consequently increasing the specific capacitance of ultracapacitor energy storage systems.

Detailed characterization and confirmation of the structural and morphological properties are doneviaX-ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). Compared to the isolated MnO(2)nanorods, the rGO/MnO(2)nano-heterostructure exhibits impressive field emission (FE) performance in terms of the low turn-on field of 1.4 V mu m(-1)for an emission current density of 10 mu A cm(-2)and a high current density of 600 mu A cm(-2)at a relatively very low applied electric field of 3.1 V mu m(-1). The isolated MnO(2)nanorods display a high turn-on field of 7.1 for an emission current density of 10 mu A cm(-2)and a low current density of 221 mu A cm(-2)at an applied field of 8.1 V mu m(-1). Besides the superior FE characteristics of the rGO/MnO(2)nano-heterostructure, the emission current remains quite stable over the continuous 2 h period of measurement. The improvement of the FE characteristics of the rGO/MnO(2)nano-heterostructure can be ascribed to the nanometric features and the lower work function (6.01 and 6.12 eV for the rGO with 8% and 16% oxygen content) compared to the isolated alpha-MnO2(100) surface (phi= 7.22 eV) as predicted from complementary first-principles electronic structure calculations based on density functional theory (DFT) methods. These results suggest that an appropriate coupling of rGO with MnO(2)nanorods would have a synergistic effect of lowering the electronic work function, resulting in a beneficial tuning of the FE characteristics.</p>

	3D Porous carbon-based materials are well known for their excellent mechanical and electrochemical properties for various energy storage applications including Li-ion Battery (LIB) anodes. However, their commercial application is limited due to their low theoretical specific capacity. Heteroatom doping in carbonaceous networks proved an efficient way to modify the surface properties, which considerably improves the Li intake capacity and Li diffusion in porous carbon materials. In this work, we have synthesized 3D honeycomb boron carbon nitride (HBCN) from boric acid, glucose, and cyanamide. Silica nanoparticles (SiO2 NPs) are used as structure-directing agents to replicate well-organized honeycomb structures. HBCN possesses a high specific surface area (SSA) of similar to 597 m(2) g(-1), with a uniform porosity distribution, low charge transfer resistance, and steady Li flux. When analyzed as an anode material for LIB, HBCN demonstrated an excellent specific capacity of similar to 652 mAhg(-1) and 408 mAhg(-1) at an input current density of 100 mAg(-1) and 1 Ag-1 respectively and an energy density of 227 Wh kg(-1) at 1 C rate in a full cell LIB. These results indicate that the doping of B and N hetero atoms is significantly advantageous for LIBs application.</p>

	Lithium (Li) metal could be the anode of choice for energy dense Li-batteries owing to its high theoretical specific capacity. However, low coulombic efficiency and poor safety on account of the occurrence of the Li-dendrites during charging-discharging pose a bottleneck for practical applications. In this work, we report a high-rate plating and stripping of Li through host engineering to realize ultrastable Li metal anode (LMA). Benchmark plating/stripping efficiency could be achieved via uniquely structured, highly ordered honeycomb boron carbon nitride (HBCN) as a functional scaffold. Boron and nitrogen doping, large surface area and ordered mesoporous structure induce homogeneous solid electrolyte interface (SEI) layer formation and provide numerous nucleation sites with subsequent dendrite-free growth with 99.98 % coulombic efficiency at 8 mA cm(-2) high current and 10 mAh cm(-2) capacity over 3000 cycles. Via post-cycling advanced characterizations techniques of Ex-situ XPS, 3D X-ray micro-tomography analyses and FESEM, we demonstrate the formation of a stable SEI layer and morphological changes that occurred during Li plating cycles in the HBCN structure. Computational studies validate the high lithium plating-stripping efficacy of HBCN to its highly ordered porous nature, exothermic Li-binding and upshift in the Fermi levels. When tested at elevated temperature (50 degrees C), a stable Li plating-stripping in HBCN is realised at 4 mA cm(-2) current and 10 mAh cm(-2) capacity values with similar to 100 % C.E. Furthermore, we report the results of testing a Li metal cell comprised of Li deposited HBCN anode and LiFePO4 (LFP) cathode.</p>

	A unique approach has been applied for the synthesis of 1D boron carbon nitride nanotubes (BCN-NTs) using MnO2 nanowires as templates. BCN-NTs have been evaluated in Na-ion batteries, Li-ion batteries, and supercapacitors as electrode material and exhibited excellent and stable electrochemical performance. BCN-NTs as an anode for Na-ion battery has been shown to be highly stable up to 3000 cycles with capacity retention of 95 mAh g(-1), at a high current density of 1 A g(-1). In the case of the Li-ion battery, these BCN-NTs show a specific capacity of 563 mAh g(-1) at a current density of 50 mA g(-1). Finally, when used as an electrode for a supercapacitor, BCN-NTs display a specific capacity of 221 F g(-1) at a current density of 3 A g(-1) and 168 F g(-1) even at a very high current density of 30 A g(-1) exemplifying the excellent rate performance. The multifunctionality and stable performance of BCN-NTs among various electrochemical energy storage systems highlight the robustness of the material and make it an excellent candidate for scalable production and commercialization.</p>
