Summary: The study focuses on the characteristics of AISI 441 stainless steel deposited with Mn, Co, and 10 wt% La-LSC powder mixtures for SOFC cathode contact materials. Comparison of microstructures of uncoated and coated steel after aging at 800 degrees C reveals different oxide scale spallation behaviors. Area specific resistance measurements show that Mn-Co-LSC mixtures have lower ASR values due to lower intrinsic resistivity and better contact with steel and LSCF wafer.

Summary: Protein fold and slow relaxation times restrict the configurations sampled by the protein during electron transfer process. Incomplete sampling leads to violation of fluctuation-dissipation relations in traditional theories, reducing the effective reorganization energy and resulting in lower barriers and faster rates (catalytic effect). Electrochemical kinetic measurements support low activation barriers for protein electron transfer. The rate constant's dependence on distance shows a crossover from a plateau at short distances to a long-distance exponential decay, which is controlled by protein dynamics.

Summary: This paper investigated the oxidation-reduction reactions of iron-bearing minerals during the migration and conversion of arsenic in the environment, and found that Fe(II) plays a vital role in the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in pyrite. The results showed that the addition of Fe(II) significantly enhanced the removal efficiency of As(III) by pyrite. It was also observed that neutral pH is favorable for the oxidation of As(III) and removal of total arsenic. Additionally, O-2(center dot-) and center dot OH were identified as the main contributors to As(III) oxidation, while Fe(IV) played a minor role.

Summary: Ni-Zr0.82Y0.18O1.91 (YSZ) and Ni-La0.90Sr0.10ScO2.95 (LSS) cermets were studied for solid oxide and protonic ceramic electrochemical cells using H/D isotope exchange method. Three parallel channels of hydrogen surface exchange were found in both cermets, with the mechanism being temperature independent in Ni-YSZ but more complex in Ni-LSS at lower temperatures. Hydrogen spillover was identified as the rate-determining step in both cermets. The mechanism of hydrogen oxidation on the Ni-LSS electrode differed from that of the Ni-YSZ electrode, changing with temperature and more complex at lower temperatures.

Summary: This study presents the results of tests on different types of electrochemical cells, focusing on the impedance spectra analysis of fuel cells using the distribution of relaxation times (DRT) technique. By comparing the data obtained with symmetrical cells and using simple oxides with high electrochemical activity for electrode impregnation, the polarization resistance of the cathode and anode of the fuel cell can be determined separately, along with the reasons limiting the power of the cells. It was found that gas diffusion in the pores of the anode primarily limits the performance of high-performance fuel cells.

Summary: We investigate the electrochemical behavior of a fuel cell made of perovskite like oxides, including LSGM supporting electrolyte, PBCG cathode, and SFNM anode. The DRT method shows that the oxygen reduction rate at the PBCG cathode is faster than the hydrogen oxidation rate at the SFNM anode. Both cathode and anode processes are fast, limiting the cell efficiency only by the electrolyte thickness. The cell with a 450 μm LSGM support exhibits a power density of about 0.7 W cm-2 at 800℃ under wet hydrogen/air feed.

Summary: Strontium and cobalt-free LaNi0.6Fe0.4O3-d is a promising electrode for solid-state electrochemical devices, with high electrical conductivity, suitable thermal expansion coefficient, tolerance to chromium poisoning, and chemical compatibility with zirconia-based electrolytes. However, its disadvantage is the low oxygen-ion conductivity. To increase the conductivity, a complex oxide based on doped ceria is added, which decreases the electrode's conductivity. Therefore, a two-layer electrode with sintering additives is recommended.

Summary: Solid electrolytes based on Li7La3Zr2O12 show promise as membranes for all-solid-state batteries. Conventional impedance fitting cannot accurately determine the main parameters of all transport stages in composite and doped Li7La3Zr2O12. The distribution of relaxation times (DRT) method has proven to be a valuable tool for analyzing impedance spectra. In this study, a composite electrolyte Li7La3Zr2O12 - Li2O-B2O3-SiO2 was investigated using impedance spectroscopy. The DRT analysis showed that the introduction of glass leads to the appearance of an additional peak on the DRT function, which represents the interfacial resistance responsible for lithium ion transfer across the Li7La3Zr2O12/glass interface. The DRT technique was successfully used to determine the resistance, capacitance, and relaxation frequency of all transport stages in the composite electrolytes.

Summary: Nickel-ceramic composites are commonly used materials for solid oxide fuel cell anodes. The electrochemical activity of these composites can be improved by increasing the triple phase boundary length or impregnating with ceria. This study investigated highly active Ni-ceramic electrodes with different dispersion made from NiO and Zr0.84Sc0.16O1.92 powders and impregnation with ceria. The analysis using the distribution of relaxation times method revealed that the hydrogen oxidation rate in electrodes with low porosity is limited by two parallel gas diffusion processes in the same frequency range.

Summary: This article presents the results of a systematic study on the electrochemical performance and mechanical changes in two types of commercial batteries with different anode chemistry. The study reveals that the swelling of anode layers in batteries with silicon-based components causes deformations in the jelly roll structure, but the presence of a small percentage of silicon does not significantly impact the cycling performance of the cells within the relevant state-of-health range for electric vehicles (EVs). The research suggests that there is room for improving the cell capacities by increasing the silicon loading in composite anodes to meet the increasing demands on EVs.

BaO nanoislands are successfully introduced inside the Ni-YSZ anode, leading to higher peak power densities and improved stability in methane fuel.

The optimized Li-CO2 cell shows outstanding specific capacity and cycle life, and the post-cycling analysis reveals the degradation mechanism of the electrodes. First-principles calculations based on density functional theory are also performed to understand the interactions between the catalyst and the host electrode.

It was found that blending NMC with LMO can enhance energy density at high rates, with the blend containing 25% LMO showing the best performance. Testing with a special electrochemical setup revealed that the effective current load on each blend component can vary significantly from the nominal rate and also changes with SoC. Operando studies allowed monitoring of the oxidation state evolution and changes in crystal structure, in line with the expected behavior of individual components considering their electrochemical current loads.
