Enhanced Electrochemical Properties and Optimized Li^(+)Transmission Pathways of PEO/LLZTO-Based Composite Electrolytes Modified by Supramolecular Combination

Poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)and Li_(6.75)La_(3)Zr_(1.75)Ta_(0.25)O_(12)(LLZTO)-based composite polymer electrolytes(CPEs)are considered one of the most promising solid electrolyte systems.However,agglomeration of LLZTO within PEO and lack of Li^(+)channels result in poor electrochemical properties.Herein,a functional supramolecular combination(CD-TFSI)consisting of activeβ-cyclodextrin(CD)supramolecular with self-assembled LiTFSI salt is selected as an interface modifier to coat LLZTO fillers.Benefiting from vast H-bonds formed betweenβ-CD and PEO matrix and/or LLZTO,homogeneous dispersion and tight interface contact are obtained.Moreover,^(6)Li NMR spectra confirm a new Li^(+)transmission pathway from PEO matrix to LLZTO ceramic then to PEO matrix in the as-prepared PEO/LLZTO@CD-TFSI CPEs due to the typical cavity structure ofβ-CD.As a proof,the conductivity is increased from 5.3×10^(-4)S cm^(-1)to 8.7×10^(-4)S cm^(-1)at 60℃,the Li^(+)transference number is enhanced from 0.38 to 0.48,and the electrochemical stability window is extended to 5.1 V versus Li/Li^(+).Li‖LiFePO_(4)CR2032 coin full cells and pouch cells prove the practical application of the as-prepared PEO/LLZTO@CD-TFSI CPEs.This work offers a new strategy of interface modifying LLZTO fillers with functional supramolecular combination to optimize PEO/LLZTO CPEs for solid lithium batteries.

Advancements in enhancing corrosion protection of Mg alloys:A comprehensive review on the synergistic effects of combining inhibitors with PEO coating

Magnesium(Mg)alloys are lightweight materials with excellent mechanical properties,making them attractive for various applications,including aerospace,automotive,and biomedical industries.However,the practical application of Mg alloys is limited due to their high susceptibility to corrosion.Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO),or micro-arc oxidation(MAO),is a coating method that boosts Mg alloys'corrosion resistance.However,despite the benefits of PEO coatings,they can still exhibit certain limitations,such as failing to maintain long-term protection as a result of their inherent porosity.To address these challenges,researchers have suggested the use of inhibitors in combination with PEO coatings on Mg alloys.Inhibitors are chemical compounds that can be incorporated into the coating or applied as a post-treatment to further boost the corrosion resistance of the PEO-coated Mg alloys.Corrosion inhibitors,whether organic or inorganic,can act by forming a protective barrier,hindering the corrosion process,or modifying the surface properties to reduce susceptibility to corrosion.Containers can be made of various materials,including polyelectrolyte shells,layered double hydroxides,polymer shells,and mesoporous inorganic materials.Encapsulating corrosion inhibitors in containers fully compatible with the coating matrix and substrate is a promising approach for their incorporation.Laboratory studies of the combination of inhibitors with PEO coatings on Mg alloys have shown promising results,demonstrating significant corrosion mitigation,extending the service life of Mg alloy components in aggressive environments,and providing self-healing properties.In general,this review presents available information on the incorporation of inhibitors with PEO coatings,which can lead to improved performance of Mg alloy components in demanding environments.

Tailor-made microstructures lead to high-performance robust PEO membrane for CO_(2)capture via green fabrication technique

Emerging excessive greenhouse gas emissions pose great threats to the ecosystem,which thus requires efficient CO_(2)capture to mitigate the disastrous issue.In this report,large molecular size bisphenol A ethoxylate diacrylate(BPA)was employed to crosslink poly(ethylene glycol)methyl ether acrylate(PEGMEA)via the green and rapid UV polymerization strategy.The microstructure of such-prepared membrane could be conveniently tailored by tuning the ratio of the two prepolymers,aiming at obtaining the optimized microstructures with suitable mesh size and PEO sol content,which was approved by a novel low-field nuclear magnetic resonance technique.The optimum membrane overcomes the tradeoff challenge:dense microstructures lower the gas permeability while loose microstructures lower high-pressure-resistance capacity,realizing a high CO_(2)permeability of 1711 Barrer and 100-h long-term running stability under 15 atm.The proposed membrane fabrication approach,hence,opens a novel gate for developing high-performance robust membranes for CO_(2)capture.

Reducing damage extent of epoxy coating on magnesium substrate by Zr-enhanced PEO coating as an effective pretreatment

This research was undertaken to study the effect of Zr-enhanced plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO) as a pretreatment on the corrosion performance of epoxy coating applied on Magnesium in 3.5 wt.% Na Cl solution. The parameters of delamination index along with coating damage index were extracted through electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) tests to determine how Zr may affect the corrosion protection of duplex PEO/epoxy coated samples. Pull-off adhesion tests were also accomplished to form a better understanding of Zr-enhanced PEO coating’ function. According to the obtained results, the presence of Zr can reduce the damage to the coating system by almost twice.

Impressive strides in amelioration of corrosion behavior of Mg-based alloys through the PEO process combined with surface laser process: A review

The unsatisfactory corrosion properties of Mg-based alloys pose a significant obstacle to their widespread application. Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO) is a prevalent and effective coating method that produces a ceramic-like oxide coating on the surface of Mg-based alloys,enhancing their resistance to corrosion. Research has demonstrated that PEO treatment can substantially improve the corrosion performance of alloys based on magnesium in the short term. In an effort to enhance the corrosion resistance of PEO coatings over an extended period of time, researchers have turned their attention to the use of laser processes as both pre-and post-treatments in conjunction with the PEO process. Various laser processes, such as laser shock melting(LSM), laser shock adhesion(LSA), laser shock texturing(LST), and laser shock peening(LSP), have been investigated for their potential to improve PEO coatings on Mg substrates and their alloys. These laser melting processes can homogenize and alter the microstructure of Mg-based alloys while leaving the bulk material unchanged, thereby modifying the substrate surface. However, the porous and rough structure of PEO coatings, with their open and interconnected pore structure, can reduce their long-term corrosion resistance. As such, various laser processes are well-suited for surface modification of these coatings. This study will first examine the PEO process and the various types of laser processes used in this process, before investigating the corrosion behavior of PEO coatings in conjunction with laser pre-and post-treatment processes.

Influence of Current Density on the Photocatalytic Activity of Nd:TiO_(2) Coatings

The Nd:TiO_(2 )PEO coatings were formed in a phosphate-based electrolyte with the addition of Nd_(2)O_(3 )under the current density of 150,200,250 and 300 m A/cm^(2).SEM results showed that the micropores decreased on quantity and increased on scale with the increasing current density.AFM results revealed that the roughness of the coatings increased with the increasing current density.Phase and composition analysis showed that the Nd:TiO_(2) coatings were mainly composed of anatase and rutile phase.And the anatase phase content has reached the maximum value at the current density of 250 m A/cm^(2).XPS results indicated that Ti2p spin-orbit components of the Nd:TiO_(2) coatings are shifted towards higher binding energy,compared with the pure TiO_(2) coating,suggesting that some of the Nd^(3+)ions are combined with TiO_(2) lattice and led to dislocation.Photocatalytic test showed that the photocatalytic activity of Nd:TiO_(2) coatings varied in the same pattern with the anatase content variation in Nd:TiO_(2) coatings.The photocatalytic experiment results show that the photocatalytic activity of Nd:TiO_(2) coatings can be greatly enhanced with moderate amount of Nd^(3+).However,excessive amount of Nd^(3+)does not have an effective impact on the photoctalytic activity improvement.

Assembly of functional carboxymethyl cellulose/polyethylene oxide/anatase TiO_(2) nanocomposites and tuning the dielectric relaxation, optical, and photoluminescence performances

Nanocomposite films consisting of carboxymethyl cellulose,polyethylene oxide(CMC/PEO),and anatase titanium diox-ide(TO)were produced by the use of sol-gel and solution casting techniques.TiO2 nanocrystals were effectively incorporated into CMC/PEO polymers,as shown by X-ray diffraction(XRD)and attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infrared(ATR-FTIR)analysis.The roughness growth is at high levels of TO nanocrystals(TO NCs),which means increasing active sites and defects in CMC/PEO.In differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)thermograms,the change in glass transition temperature(Tg)val-ues verifies that the polymer blend interacts with TO NCs.The increment proportions of TO NCs have a notable impact on the dielectric performances of the nanocomposites,as observed.The electrical properties of the CMC/PEO/TO nanocomposite undergo significant changes.The nanocomposite films exhibit a red alteration in the absorption edge as the concentration of TO NCs increases in the polymer blend.The decline in the energy gap is readily apparent as the weight percentage of TO NCs increases.The photoluminescence(PL)emission spectra indicate that the sites of the luminescence peak maximums show slight variation;peaks get wider,while their intensities decrease dramatically as the concentration of TO increases.These nanocomposite materials show potential for multifunctional applications including optoelectronics,antireflection coatings,pho-tocatalysis,light emitting diodes,and solid polymer electrolytes.

Improving the wear resistance of plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)coatings applied on Mg and its alloys under the addition of nano-and micro-sized additives into the electrolytes:A review

As an efficient surface modification approach,the plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)technique can boost the capability of wear protection in Mg and its alloys by applying a hard and thick ceramic coating.In this procedure,more efficient protection can be acquired via adding additives(in the form of particle,powder,sheet,etc.)into solutions and producing composite coatings.These additives result in more efficient protection against wear via getting stuck in the cracks and pores of coatings and rising the thickness,hardness,and diminishing the porosity size and content.The efficiency of each additive can be changed owing to its intrinsic properties like melting point,size,participation type(reactive,partly reactive,or inert)and potential of zeta.In this review,the effects of distinct additives in nano-and micro-scale size on wear behavior of PEO coatings on Mg and its alloys is going to be reviewed.

Surface characterization and corrosion behavior of calcium phosphate(Ca-P)base composite layer on Mg and its alloys using plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO):A review

Magnesium has been known as an appropriate biological material on account of its good biocompatibility and biodegradability properties in addition to advantageous mechanical properties.Mg and its alloys are of poor corrosion resistance.Its high corrosion rate leads to its quick decomposition in the corrosive ambiance and as a result weakening its mechanical properties and before it is repaired,it will vanish.The corrosion and degradation rate must be controlled in the body to advance the usage of Mg and its alloys as implants.Different techniques have been utilized to boost biological properties.Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)can provide porous and biocompatible coatings for implants among various techniques.Biodegradable implants are generally supposed to show enough corrosion resistance and mechanical integrity in the body environment.Much research has been carried out in order to produce PEO coatings containing calcium phosphate compounds.Calcium phosphates are really similar to bone mineral composition and present great biocompatibility.The present study deals with the usage of calcium phosphates as biocompatible coatings applied on Mg and its alloys to study the properties and control the corrosion rate.

Investigation of ZrO2 nanoparticles concentration and processing time effect on the localized PEO coatings formed on AZ91 alloy

AZ91 Mg alloy was treated through a new localized PEO(Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation)coating approach,using electrolyte solutions with varying ZrO2 nanoparticles concentration(2-8 g/L)and processing times.With increase in the ZrO2 concentration,several microstructural changes were observed including;formation of cluster-type structure,damage to the inner layers(∼30 min)and sealing of defects.Corrosion analysis of the final coatings was carried out using potentiodynamic polarization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and post-corrosion analysis.It was explored that highest corrosion resistance(Rp∼81.17 kΩcm^2)of the coatings was obtained for ZrO2∼2 g/L.However,higher concentration of the ZrO2 nanoparticles caused weak crystalline coating structure,due to unstable and lower intensity discharges,thus failed to offer high corrosion resistance performance.

Preparation and properties of PEO/LiClO_4/KH560-SiO_2 composite polymer electrolyte by sol-gel composite-in-situ method

Composite polymer electrolytes based on polyethylene oxide(PEO) were prepared by using LiClO4 as doping salt and silane-modified SiO2 as filler. SiO2 was formed in-situ in (PEO)8LiClO4 matrix by the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of Si(OC4H9)4. The crystallinity,morphology and ionic conductivity of composite polymer electrolyte films were examined by differential scanning calorimetry,scanning electron microscopy,atom force microscopy and alternating current impedance spectroscopy,respectively. Compared with the crystallinity of the unmodified SiO2 as inert filler,that of composite polymer electrolytes is decreased. The results show that silane-modified SiO2 particles are uniformly dispersed in (PEO)8LiClO4 composite polymer electrolyte film and the addition of silane-modified SiO2 increases the ionic conductivity of the (PEO)8LiClO4 more noticeably. When the mass fraction of SiO2 is about 10%,the conductivity of (PEO)8LiClO4-modified SiO2 attains a maximum value of 4.8×10-5 S·cm-1.

A review of effective strides in amelioration of the biocompatibility of PEO coatings on Mg alloys

Recently,developing bioactive and biocompatible materials based on Mg and Mg-alloys for implant applications has drawn attention among researchers owing to their suitable body degradability.Implementing Mg and its alloys reduces the risk of long-term incompatibility with tissues because of their close mechanical properties and no need for re-operation to remove the implant.Nevertheless,the degradation rate of the implant needs to be controlled because production of hydrogen gas and accumulation of its bubbles increases local pH around the implants.To confine the integrity of implants and the body,the corrosion concern in the body fluid requires to be addressed.Surface modification as one of the effective strategies can improve corrosion resistance.Besides,it creates a suitable surface for bone grafting and cell growth.The development of proper surface-coated implants needs appropriate techniques and approaches.Plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)coating can provide long-term protection by providing a ceramic layer and improving the implant’s biocompatibility.Herein,a general review of in-vivo and in-vitro evaluation of PEO coatings on Mg and Mg-alloys has been carried out.Recent advances in surface modification on Mg and Mg-alloys have been discussed,however,the need for reliable laboratory models to predict in-vivo degradation is still valid.

Impressive strides in amelioration of corrosion and wear behaviors of Mg alloys using applied polymer coatings on PEO porous coatings:A review

Magnesium(Mg)and its alloys have received much attention in a lot of areas due to their special chemical and physical properties.Nevertheless,high corrosion rates are a limiting factor.The plasma electrolytic oxidation(PEO)technique is a simple approach to place an oxide film on the surface of light metals like Mg alloys.This method has been considered for controlling the rate of corrosion and improving some other properties.On the other hand,PEO coatings cannot make enough protection of Magnesium alloys for a long time due to porosity and fine cracks.Therefore,PEO-based composite coatings are used to make adequate corrosion protection on the Mg alloys surface.The popularity of these coatings is due to their good corrosion resistance,simplicity,high coating capability,and cost-effectiveness in complex segments.Formation of an organic layer on the surface of PEO coating is one of the effective methods to close the defects and thus prevent the corrosive species penetration into the substrate.Coating the PEO coating with a polymer layer can be a good solution to control the amount of damage and improve the corrosion and abrasion resistance.In addition,PEO coating can eliminate the problems of insufficient adhesion of polymer coatings and is considered as a suitable base for composite coatings.This review paper presents the corrosion and abrasion behavior of the PEO/Polymer dual coating system on Mg alloys.Given the fundamental role of coatings thickness and morphology in wear and corrosion behavior,these aspects have been highly discussed in this study.
