Synthesis and Tribological Behaviour of 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Schiff Base Derivatives as Multifunctional Lubricant Additives

Six new 1,3,4-thiadiazole Schiff base derivatives were synthesized and characterized by IR spectroscopy and ~1H NMR spectrometry, and their anti-corrosion properties and thermal stability were investigated via thermogravimetric analysis(TGA) and copper strip corrosion test.

2,5-Dimercapto-1,3,4-Thiadiazole(DMCT)-Based Polymers for Rechargeable Metal-Sulfur Batteries

Organosulfur materials are a sustainable alternative to the present-day layered oxide cathodes in lithium-based batteries.One such organosulfur material that was intensely explored from the 1990s to early 2010s is 2,5-dimercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole(DMCT).However,research interest declined as the electrode reactions with DMCT were assumed to be too sluggish to be practical.Armed with the advances in metal-sulfur batteries,we revisit DMCT-based materials in the form of poly[tetrathio-2,5-(1,3,4-thiadiazole)],referred to as pDMCT-S.With an appropriate choice of electrode design and electrolyte,pDMCT-S cathode paired with a Li-metal anode shows a capacity of 715 mA h g^(-1)and a Coulombic efficiency of 97.7%at a C/10 rate,thus quelling the concerns of sluggish reactions.Surprisingly,pDMCT-S shows significantly improved long-term cyclability compared to a sulfur cathode.Investigations into the origin of the stability reveals that the discharge product Li-DMCT in its mesomeric form can strongly bind to polysulfides,preventing their dissolution into the electrolyte and shuttling.This unique mechanism solves a critical problem faced by sulfur cathodes.Encouragingly,this mechanism results in a stable performance of pDMCT-S with Na-metal cells as well.This study opens the potential for exploring other organic materials that have inherent polysulfide sequestering capabilities,enabling long-life metal-sulfur batteries.
