Approximate partial phase diagrams for nine amphiphile-protic ionic liquid (PIL) systems have been determined by synchrotron source small angle X-ray scattering, differential scanning calorimetry and cross polarised optical microscopy. The binary phase diagrams of some common cationic (hexadecyltrimethyl ammonium chloride, CTAC, and hexadecylpyridinium bromide, HDPB) and nonionic (polyoxyethylene (10) oleyl ether, Brij 97, and Pluronic block copolymer, P123) amphiphiles with the PILs, ethylammonium nitrate (EAN), ethanolammonium nitrate (EOAN) and diethanolammonium formate (DEOAF), have been studied. The phase diagrams were constructed for concentrations from 10 wt% to 80 wt% amphiphile, in the temperature range 25 degrees C to > 100 degrees C. Lyotropic liquid crystalline phases (hexagonal, cubic and lamellar) were formed at high surfactant concentrations (typically > 50 wt%), whereas at <40 wt%, only micelles or polydisperse crystals were present. With the exception of Brij 97, the thermal stability of the phases formed by these surfactants persisted to temperatures above 100 degrees C. The phase behaviour of amphiphile-PIL systems was interpreted by considering the PIL cohesive energy, liquid nanoscale order, polarity and ionicity. For comparison the phase behaviour of the four amphiphiles was also studied in water.

Automation of liquid crystal phase analysis for SAXS, including the rapid production of novel phase diagrams for SDS-water-PIL systems

Stefan Paporakis, Jack Binns, Dilek Yalcin, Calum J. Drummond, Tamar L. Greaves, Andrew V. Martin

Summary: A semi-automated software for high throughput identification of lyotropic liquid crystal phases (LCPs) from small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) data was developed and validated. The software showed equivalent accuracy to manual analysis in determining the thermal stability ranges and lattice parameters for CTAB-based LCPs. Additionally, the software was successfully applied to analyze scattering patterns of sodium dodecyl-sulfate in different solvents, constructing phase diagrams for the determination of LCPs.

Superior Anticorrosion Performance of Well-Dispersed MXene- Polymer Composite Coatings Enabled by Covalent Modification and Ambient Electron-Beam Curing

Yukun Zhang, Chong Chen, Zhengfei Chen, Tongtong Zhang, Yunlong Wang, Shuiyan Cao, Jun Ma

Summary: In this study, MXene-reinforced composite coatings were fabricated using an efficient, ambient, and solvent-free electron beam (EB) curing technology for metal anticorrosion. The dispersion of MXene nanoflakes was dramatically improved by modifying with PDMS-OH, which enhanced water resistance. The controllable irradiation-induced polymerization resulted in a unique high-density cross-linked network, providing a large physical barrier against corrosive media. The newly developed APU-PDMS@MX1 coatings exhibited excellent corrosion resistance with a protection efficiency of 99.9957%.

Sampa Sarkar, Brendan Dyett, Biserka Lakic, Andrew S. Ball, Leslie Y. Yeo, Jacinta F. White, Sarvesh Soni, Calum J. Drummond, Charlotte E. Conn

Summary: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) causes tuberculosis, a highly deadly infectious disease. Traditional drugs have difficulty targeting intracellular MTB, leading to multidrug resistance. This study showed that cationic cubosomes can effectively deliver the antitubercular drug rifampicin (RIF), reducing its minimum inhibitory concentration and shortening the lifecycle of MTB. The delivery system was also effective against intracellular MTB within human macrophages.

Surface Enrichment of Redox Mediator for Long-Cyclable Lithium-Air Batteries

Shiqiang Huang, Zhendong Li, Zixuan Liu, Qinghui Yan, Bingyan Ma, Deyu Wang, Feng Wei, Zhengfei Chen, Haiyong He

Summary: The redox reactions of cobalt porphyrine derivatives in Li-air battery are controlled by adsorption on the cathode surface rather than diffusion. The side substituent groups of the porphyrine derivatives significantly influence their adsorbability and cell cyclability. Among them, cobalt tetramethoxyphenyl porphyrin has the highest adsorbability and the ability to decompose Li2CO3, enabling the Li-air cell to operate for 200 cycles under certain conditions even without a solid-state electrolyte membrane to suppress redox mediator shuttling and deactivation.

Saffron J. Bryant, Aaron Elbourne, Tamar L. Greaves, Gary Bryant

Summary: Deep eutectic solvents (DES) are customizable non-aqueous solvents with potential applications in various fields, including industrial dissolution and biomedicine. They have the ability to self-assemble amphiphilic molecules into liquid crystal phases, which can be utilized in drug delivery systems. This study investigated the self-assembly of a non-ionic lipid, phytantriol, in the DES choline chloride:urea with and without water. The results showed that the DES supported diverse phase behavior and the addition of water influenced the phase transition temperatures.

Insights into the multi-functional lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate additive in boosting the Li-ion reaction kinetics for Li3VO4 anodes

Miaomiao Zhang, Cunyuan Pei, Qiqi Xiang, Lintao Liu, Zhongxu Dai, Huijuan Ma, Shibing Ni

Summary: The design of a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) plays a crucial role in improving the electrochemical performance of anode materials. In this study, lithium difluoro(oxalate)borate (LiDFOB) is used as an electrolyte additive to form a protective SEI film on Li3VO4 (LVO) anodes. The addition of LiDFOB results in a dense, uniform, stable, and LiF-richer SEI, which enhances the Li-ion storage kinetics. The generated SEI also prevents further decomposition of the electrolyte and maintains the morphology of LVO anodes during charge/discharge processes. This work demonstrates the effectiveness of LiDFOB as a multi-functional additive for LiPF6 electrolytes and provides insights into SEI construction for high-performance LVO anodes.

ClO-driven degradation of graphene oxide: new insights from DFT calculations

S. L. Romo-Avila, D. Marquez-Ruiz, R. A. Guirado-Lopez

Summary: In this study, we used density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the interaction between model graphene oxide (GO) nanostructures and chlorine monoxide ClO. We aimed to understand the role of this highly oxidizing species in breaking C-C bonds and forming significant holes on GO sheets. Our results showed that C-C bonds in a single graphene oxide sheet can be broken through a simple mechanism involving the dissociation of two chemically attached ClO molecules. The formation of carbonyl groups and holes on the GO surface was also observed. This study provides important insights into the degradation of carbon nanotubes and the stability of GO during the myeloperoxidase (MPO) catalytic cycle.

Composition dependence of X-ray stability and degradation mechanisms at lead halide perovskite single crystal surfaces

Alberto Garcia-Fernandez, Birgit Kammlander, Stefania Riva, Hakan Rensmo, Ute B. Cappel

Summary: In this study, the X-ray stability of five different lead halide perovskite compositions (MAPbI3, MAPbCl3, MAPbBr3, FAPbBr3, CsPbBr3) was investigated using photoelectron spectroscopy. Different degradation mechanisms and resistance to X-ray were observed depending on the crystal composition. Overall, perovskite compositions based on the MA+ cation were found to be less stable than those based on FA+ or Cs+. Metallic lead formation was most easily observed in the chloride perovskite, followed by bromide, and very little in MAPbI3. Multiple degradation processes were identified for the bromide compositions, including ion migration, formation of volatile and solid products, as well as metallic lead. CsBr was formed as a solid degradation product on the surface of CsPbBr3.

The effect of temperature and oxygen partial pressure on the concentration of iron and manganese ions in La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-δ

Sergey S. Nikitin, Alexander D. Koryakov, Elizaveta A. Antipinskaya, Alexey A. Markov, Mikhail V. Patrakeev

Summary: The stability of La1/3Sr2/3Fe1-xMnxO3-delta, a perovskite-type oxide, under reducing conditions is dependent on the manganese content. Increasing the manganese content leads to a decrease in stability. The behavior of iron and manganese in the oxide shows distinct differences, which can be attributed to the difference in the enthalpy of oxidation reactions. Additionally, the change in the La/Sr ratio affects the concentration of iron and manganese ions.
