Effect of BaO addition on relative density and electric conductivity of xNi/10NiO-NiFe_2O_4 cermets

xNi/10NiO-NiFe2O4 （x=5, 10, 17） cermets and those doped with 1% BaO （mass fraction） were prepared by cold isostatic pressing at 200 MPa and sintering in nitrogen atmosphere at 1 473 K. The effects of BaO addition on relative density, microstructure and electric conductivity of cermets were investigated. The results show that relative densities ofxNi/10NiO-NiFe2O4 cermets （x=5, 10, 17） doped with 1% BaO at 1 473 K in nitrogen atmosphere are increased by 0.49%, 1.45% and 2.99% compared with those of the undoped BaO cermets, respectively. Moreover, the electric conductivities （21.98, 28.37 and 50.10 S/cm） of xNi/10NiO-NiFe2O4 cermets （x=5, 10, 17） doped with 1% BaO at 1 233 K are improved compared with those （18.70, 22.79 and 39.58 S/cm） of xNi/lONiO-NiFe2O4 cermets （x=5, 10, 17）, respectively. This indicates that perhaps the addition of BaO or formation of BaFe204 and Ba2Fe2O5 has an active effect on electric conductivities ofxNi/10NiO-NiFe2O4 （x=5, 10, 17） cermets.

Aligned Ion Conduction Pathway of Polyrotaxane‑Based Electrolyte with Dispersed Hydrophobic Chains for Solid‑State Lithium–Oxygen Batteries

A critical challenge hindering the practical application of lithium–oxygen batteries(LOBs)is the inevitable problems associated with liquid electrolytes,such as evaporation and safety problems.Our study addresses these problems by proposing a modified polyrotaxane(mPR)-based solid polymer electrolyte(SPE)design that simultaneously mitigates solvent-related problems and improves conductivity.mPR-SPE exhibits high ion conductivity(2.8×10^(−3)S cm^(−1)at 25℃)through aligned ion conduction pathways and provides electrode protection ability through hydrophobic chain dispersion.Integrating this mPR-SPE into solid-state LOBs resulted in stable potentials over 300 cycles.In situ Raman spectroscopy reveals the presence of an LiO_(2)intermediate alongside Li_(2)O_(2)during oxygen reactions.Ex situ X-ray diffraction confirm the ability of the SPE to hinder the permeation of oxygen and moisture,as demonstrated by the air permeability tests.The present study suggests that maintaining a low residual solvent while achieving high ionic conductivity is crucial for restricting the sub-reactions of solid-state LOBs.

The mathematical treatment coincides with the experimental results.

Influence of Structural Variations on Electrical Conductivity and Solubility of 1-Vinyl-3-alkylimidazole Halogen Ionic Liquids

Several 1-vinyl-3-alkylimidazolium halogens [VRIM]X, which are functional materials with ethylenic bonds, were synthesized using the microwave-assisted synthesis method.

Electric conductivity and percolation threshold research of Cu-Cu_2O cermet

Cu-Cu2O cermets were prepared via hot pressing（HP） or in situ reduction hot pressing （ISPHP）. The results of electric conductivity tests show that the percolation threshold of the cermet, which is prepared by HP, is lower than that of cermet prepared by ISRHP. The electric conductivity and the percolation threshold depend on four influencing factors: the content, the size, the shape and the distribution of Cu phase. The electric conductivity decreases with the increase of Cu particle size, and decrease of the aspect ratio of Cu particle. The more even the Cu phase distribution, the higher the electric conductivity of the cermets.

On the Electric Conductivity of Homoionic Montmorillonites at Low Water Content

Bibliographic reports on the electric conductivity of pure homoionic montmorillonite at low water content were analyzed in order to stress a general behavior of conductivity. At low water content, the conductivity is attributed to a mechanism of charge transport involving protons due to the influence of the electric field of the exchangeable cations on water molecules at the solvation shell. Conductivity was analyzed in relation with the polarizing power （ionic potential） of the exchangeable cations and with the influence of the connectivity within samples. The general conclusion stressed is that the connectivity due to the association between 2：1 unit layers （clay fabric） is the main factor on the experimental or ＂macroscopic＂ electric conductivity of pure homoionic montmorillonite at low water content. Considerations on the experimental conditions of different bibliographic reports were also made. The conclusion and the considerations made on experimental conditions are a good starting point for future researches on electric conductivity ofhomoionic montmorillonite at low water content.

Electric Potential in Surface Produced Negative Ion Source with Magnetic Field Increasing Toward a Wall

Electric potential near a wall for plasma with the surface produced negative ions with magnetic field increasing toward a wall is investigated analytically. The potential profile is derived analytically by using a plasma-sheath equation, where negative ions produced on the plasma grid （PG） surface are considered in addition to positive ions and electrons. The potential profile depends on the amount and the temperature of the surface produced negative ions and the profile of the magnetic field. The negative potential peak is formed in the sheath region near the PG surface for the case of strong surface production of negative ions or low temperature negative ions. As the increase rate of the magnetic field near the wall becomes large, the negative potential peak becomes small.

Sensitive Determination of Metal Ions in Drinking Water by Capillary Electrophoresis Coupled with Contactless Conductivity Detection Using 18-Crown-6 Ether and Hexadecyltrimethylammonium Bromide as Complexing Reagents

A simple, economical, and sensitive capillary electrophoresis (CE) method integrated with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection was developed for the determination of metal ions such as K+, Na+, Mg2+, Sr2+, Ca2+ in drinking water. 18-Crown-6 ether and Hexadecyltrimethylammonium Bromide (CTAB) were employed as complexing reagents. The effects of electrolyte additives, citric acid buffer solution, and other separation conditions of CE were comprehensively investigated and carefully optimized. The best results were obtained in a running buffer solution composed of citric acid (12 mM), 18-crown-6 ether (0.2 mM), and CTAB (0.015 mM) at pH 3.5. Under these conditions, a complete separation of five metal ions was successfully achieved in less than 12 min. The limits of detection for the optimal procedure were determined to be in the range of 0.02 - 0.2 mg·L-1. The repeatability with respect to migration times and peak areas, expressed as relative standard deviations, was better than 2.3% and 5.1%, respectively. Evaluation of the efficiency of the methodology indicated that it was reliable for the determination of metal ions in six different brands of drinking water samples.

Influence on Conductivity of Polyparaphenylene by Chemical Doping and Ion Implantation

Polyparaphenylene(PPP) is prepared by AlCl 3-CuCl 2 catalysts with benzene as the monomer and is doped by chemical method and N + ion implantation. The influences of the concentration, temperature and time of chemical doping and the dose, energy and temperature of ion implantation, on PPP conductivity are investigated. The results showed that the conductivity of PPP can be improved 4～5 orders of magnitude by ion implantation and the conductivity of PPP can reach about 0.11 S·cm -1 by chemical doping. The comparison of stability of the material conductive behavior by using the two doping methods is presented. It shows that ion implantation is better than chemical doping in stabilizing the electric conductive behavior for the material.

Effect of Pb Ions on the Ionic Conductivity of Some Silicate Glass Systems

Conductivity of glasses in the systems SiO2.PbO.RO, (where R=Ca, Sr or Ba) was investigated between room temperature and 530 K. The dependence of log resistivity as well as the activation energy on the PbO content has been studied. Based on the present experimental results, the possible different conduction mechanisms in such glasses are discussed. It was postulated that Pb2+ ions may represent the major charge carrying species in these glasses. This assumption was confirmed by the calculations of the mean distance between the interstitial Pb2+ ions and the effective center of the O2- ions in the glass networks. The variation in the values of the density and the molar volume with PbO content is also discussed in view of the obtained activation energies for the studied glass-systems.

Synthesis,Structure and Ionic Conductivity of La_(2/3-x)Li_(3x)MoO_4

A series of compounds, La 2/3- x Li 3 x MoO 4, were first prepared. Their structures are tetragonal scheelites with the cationic defects. The cell parameters a, c and values of c/a decrease with the increasing of the substitution amount (3 x ) of lithium ion. Cationic vacancies are getting more as Li + concentration is lower.

Moreover, the electrical conductivities each as a function of the oxy gen partial pressure are also measured. It is shown that the samples with the Co content values 〈 8.5 mol% each exhibit basically ionic conduction while those for Co content values 〉 10 mol % each show ionic mixed electronic conduction under oxygen partial pressures from 10-16 atm （1 atm = 1.01325 x 105 Pa） to 0.98 atm. The improved ionic conductivity of Lao.sSro.2Gao.83Mgo.085Coo.08503 prepared by laser rapid solidification compared with by solid state reactions is attributed to the unique microstructure of the sample generated during laser rapid solidification.
