A highly conducting PEDOT phase is obtained by interfacial polymerization, in which polymerization is confined at the interface of two immiscible liquids. The hydrophilic interaction between the functionalized CNTs and the oxidizing agent (iron perchlorate, Fe(ClO4)(3)), which is located in the aqueous phase, and the restricted interaction of the oxidizing agent with the EDOT monomer in the organic layer at the immiscible interface play a vital role in establishing a uniform and aggregate-free growth pattern of PEDOT on CNT. By carefully optimizing the amount of polymer in the paper, an electrode with a sheet resistance of 3.4(-1) and equivalent series resistance of 0.95 can be prepared. A thin and flexible solid-state supercapacitor device with an overall thickness of 210m is made by using this paper as the electrodes and poly(vinyl alcohol)/lithium chloride as the gel electrolyte. The power density and energy density of the electrode are 9.94Wcm(-3) and 8.85mWhcm(-3), respectively. The device also delivers a high volumetric capacitance of 18Fcm(-3) and areal capacitance of 354mFcm(-2). The demonstrated strategy is scalable and hence the process can be conveniently applied to prepare large-area PEDOT-modified buckypapers in a short time.</p>10aCarbon10aEnergy storage10ananotubes10apolymerization10aSupercapacitors1 aSoni, Roby1 aAnothumakkool, Bihag1 aKurungot, Sreekumar  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/1d-alignment-pedot-buckypaper-high-performance-solid-supercapacitors01816nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245011500055210006900170260007500239300001200314490000600326520092300332653001701255653001901272653001301291653002601304653001901330100002301349700002701372700002401399700002501423856012601448       2016                        eng d  a2194-428800a3D interconnected porous graphene sheets loaded with cobalt oxide nanoparticles for lithium-ion battery anodes0 a3D interconnected porous graphene sheets loaded with cobalt oxid  aPOSTFACH 101161, 69451 WEINHEIM, GERMANYbWILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBHcJUL  a816-8220 v43 a<p>Nanomaterials with high surface-to-volume ratio and tunable electronic and optical properties have expanded their use in variety of applications, especially energy conversion and storage.

With its widespread use, there is an ever increasing need to develop technologies to store NG on a large scale. NG storage via clathrate hydrates is the best option for a large scale storage system because of its non-explosive nature, mild storage conditions, high volumetric capacity and being an environmentally benign process. In this work, we demonstrate a new method to achieve rapid methane hydrate formation in an unstirred tank reactor configuration (UTR) at moderate temperature and pressure conditions employing tetrahydrofuran (THF) as a promoter. For the first time, THF is reported to act both as a thermodynamic and an excellent kinetic promoter for methane hydrate formation. We demonstrate a multi-scale experimental validation of our method to a volumetric sample scale-up factor of 120 and internal reactor diameter scale-up factor of 10. Further, new insights on the dissociation behavior of the hydrates are reported. There is a competitive edge for storing NG via clathrate hydrates compared to compressed natural gas storage both in terms of cost and safety. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V.

In this context, two-dimensional organic polymers are a class of versatile materials found to be useful in energy storage applications. However, the performance is not promising due to the low capacitance, energy density, and cyclic stability. Here, we report a two-dimensional polymer derived from hexaaminobenzene and pyromellitic dianhydride and its excellent supercapacitor performance. The specific capacitance of the two-dimensional polymer is found to be 805 F g(-1) at 0.5 A g(-1) current density in galvanostatic charge-discharge, which is the highest among the organic twodimensional polymer and most of the carbon-based materials. The superior performance of the 2D-polymer compared to a model derivative (350 F g(-1) at 0.5 A g(-1) current density) points to the critical role of a 2D-platform to excel. The high energy density, excellent cyclic stability, and low self-discharge rate support the 2D-polymer supercapacitor as a promising candidate for futuristic applications.</p>

XRD studies and Rietveld refinement confirmed the existence of tetragonal phase (P4mm) for all prepared ceramic compositions. The average grain size increased up to x = 0.005 and thereafter it decreased with increase in Mn content in BCT compositions. Analysis of temperature-dependent dielectric study revealed phase transformation from tetragonal to cubic phase and defect dipole induced anomaly in paraelectric region of temperature-dependent dielectric constant ( epsilon'-T) curve. Degree of diffusiveness increased with Mn doping in BCT ceramics as confirmed by evaluating diffused phase transition (DPT) parameters (gamma and delta(c)) by Power Law fitting and width of diffused phase transition (D') obtained from derivative of epsilon'-T curve. Ferroelectric (P-E loops) study revealed that ceramic composition with x = 0.015 Mn content showed the highest remnant polarization (P-r) and maximum polarization (P-max) of 14.10 mu C/cm(2) and 24.20 mu C/cm(2) respectively. Enhancement in energy storage properties with applied electric fields have been observed at room temperature. Maximum energy storage density W-rec similar to 190.89 mJ/cm(3) with an efficiency of 48.63% has been obtained for x = 0.015.

	With the development of consumer electronic devices and electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are vital components for high energy storage with great impact on our modern life. However, LIBs still cannot meet all the essential demands of rapidly growing new industries. In pursuance of higher energy requirement, metal batteries (MBs) are the next-generation high-energy-density devices. Li/Na metals are considered as an ideal anode for high-energy batteries due to extremely high theoretical specific capacity (3860 and 1165 mAh g(-1) for Li and Na, respectively) and low electrochemical potential (-3.04 V for Li and -2.71 V for Na vs. standard hydrogen electrode). Unfortunately, uncontrolled dendrite growth, high reactivity, and infinite volume change induce severe safety concerns and poor cycle efficiency during their application. Consequently, MBs are far from commercialization stage. This Review represents a comprehensive overview of failure mechanism of lithium/sodium metal anode and its progress for rechargeable batteries through (i) electrolyte optimization, (ii) artificial solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer formation, and (iii) nanoengineering at materials level in current collector, anode, and host. The challenges in current MBs research and potential applications of lithium/sodium metal anodes are also outlined and summarized.</p>

	The standard approach towards synthesizing nanomaterials exercising chemical or physical techniques generally costs more and necessitates using toxic chemicals, which negatively affect the environment. For the first time, an investigation of a basic green synthesis approach for Phyto fabrication of Pd/TiO@BC nanocomposite via biomass of rice husk (Oryza sativa L) is conducted to sustain the green chemistry for synthesis of less toxic chemicals. XRD analysis revealed that the structure of Phyto synthesized Pd/TiO@BC is crystalline, while UV, FTIR, SEM and EDX analyses marked the victorious nanocomposite biosynthesis. We have investigated the electrocatalytic and biomedical applications of the novel nanocomposite Pd/TiO@BC at different environmental conditions. Testing the potential electrochemical properties of Pd/TiO@BC to eliminate the Congo red (CR) dye from wastewater marked its high removal efficiency, which attained 90% owing to the higher electron efficiency. Its sensitivity for CR was also examined, and acceptable degradation activity was observed. These Pd/TiO@BC proved to be beneficial in various fields, including electrochemistry, catalysis sensors, wastewater treatment, and nano-devices, and in the transformation of hazardous particles into less harmful substances. Its great potential for use as a supercapacitor is promised by its feature, including durability and compact stability.

Among the different storage devices, rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs) have become one of the most promising energy technologies owing to the abundance and inexpensiveness of Zn, simple operation, environmental friendliness, and reasonable energy density. However, the sluggishness of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) occurring in ZABs is a serious obstacle in their progress and commercialization. This creates a need for the development of efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for ORR and OER. Conductive metal-organic frameworks (cMOFs) imbibing the general properties of MOFs, like high surface area, tunable porosity, redox-active centers, and additional intrinsic conductivity, can be a very lucrative option for developing bifunctional ORR and OER electrocatalysts for ZAB applications. In this review, we discuss the conductivity and design strategies of conductive MOFs, the basic configuration of ZABs, and the use of cMOFs for ZAB applications. The future directions for the improvement of cMOFs for ZABs have been provided, which hopefully will incite interest among researchers for further exploring cMOFs for ZABs. Electrochemical energy conversion and storage systems have an indispensable place in the modern world to fulfill the increasing energy demands.</p>

	This study explores Mn-doped Co3V2O8 as a promising electrode material for high-performance supercapacitors. Mn doping significantly enhances the electrochemical properties of Co3V2O8, resulting in improved specific capacitance and cycling stability. Structural characterization reveals a coral-like morphology that increases the active sites and facilitates efficient charge transport and ion diffusion. Electrochemical tests show an impressive specific capacitance of 2352 F g(-1) in 2 M KOH at 1 A g(-1). For the assembled MCV5//AC asymmetric supercapacitor device, it has a high capacitance retention of 87.6% and a high Coulombic efficiency of 96% over 5000 cycles. The developed asymmetric MCV5/AC supercapacitor device achieved an energy density of 45 Wh kg(-1) and a power density of 750 W kg(-1). These findings establish Mn-doped Co3V2O8 as a durable and efficient electrode material, offering valuable insights into the relationship between the morphology and electrochemical performance. This work provides a foundation for the development of advanced materials for sustainable energy storage applications</p>

	Achieving economical and sustainable artificial photosynthesis (APS) in direct sunlight for liquid fuel production with high efficiency remains an important challenge. A major obstacle in the photoelectrochemical (PEC) oxidation of organic compounds is attaining high selectivity with the desired product(s). This study introduces a novel strategy by integrating BiVO4 quantum dots (BVQDs), structurally and electronically, into the nanopores of commercial TiO2 (BVT for BVQDs integrated in pores of TiO2) to improve solar-driven photocatalysis. The band gap of the BVT photoanode decreases to 2.53 eV as compared to pure TiO2 (3.2 eV), which enhances visible light absorption and charge separation. BVT with Pt as a co-catalyst acts as an APS system, which selectively oxidizes glycerol into lactic acid (100% selectivity at 1 mM glycerol) and glyceric acid (98% selectivity at 100 mM), while simultaneously generating green hydrogen. Selectivity of the product can be further controlled by anaerobic or aerobic conditions as well as the length of the reaction time. Direct integration of BVQDs into TiO2 mesopores significantly enhances charge separation as well as utilization at redox sites. Current work provides key insights into optimizing photocatalytic conditions for highly selective value-added chemical production, which highlights the sustainability and efficacy of TiO2-based semiconductors with quantum dot integration.</p>
