Here, we present a Pt–Cu dual-atom catalyst (Pt/Cu-NG) as an electrocatalyst for sulfur redox reactions. Pt/Cu-NG enabled the rapid conversion of soluble polysulfide intermediates into insoluble Li<sub>2</sub>S<sub>2</sub>/Li<sub>2</sub>S, and consequently, it prevented the accumulation and shuttling of lithium polysulfides, thus outperforming the corresponding single-atom catalysts (SACs) with individual Pt or Cu sites. <em>Operando</em> X-ray absorption spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations revealed that a synergistic effect between the paired Pt and Cu atoms modifies the electronic structure of the Pt site through d-orbital interactions, resulting in an optimal moderate interaction of the metal atom with the different sulfide species. This optimal interaction enhanced charge transfer kinetics and promoted sulfur redox reactions. Our work thus provides important insights on the atomic scale into the synergistic effects operative in dual-atom catalysts and will thus pave the way to electrocatalysts with enhanced efficiency for high-performance Li–S batteries.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100489,"journal":{"name":"eScience","volume":"4 5","pages":"Article 100222"},"PeriodicalIF":42.9,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138684477","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, five polyimides containing different types of diamine linkers are designed and synthesized as cathode materials for Li-ion batteries. First, the incorporation of carbonyl groups increases the active-site density in both conjugated and non-conjugated systems. Second, increased molecular rigidity can improve the accessibility of the active sites. Third, the introduction of the conjugated structure between two carbonyl groups can increase the reactivity of the active sites. Consequently, the incorporation of carbonyl structures and conjugated structures increases the capacity of polyimides.

To comprehend the thermal dynamics that underlie severe LIB incidents, calorimetry tests have been prevalently employed for over three decades to examine the exothermic/endothermic behavior, reaction kinetics, and thermal interactions among LIB materials. There exists a substantial volume of calorimetry test results on various LIB electrodes, electrolytes, and other components. However, this data showcases low consistency, yielding an unreliable database that obstructs a thorough understanding of LIB thermal behavior. In this research, a comparative analysis of differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results from materials utilized in the most commercialized LIB systems is conducted. The analysis unveils notable discrepancies in DSC data amassed by different researchers, identifies five predominant causes of data inconsistency, proposes a standardized DSC operational procedure, and generates a set of self-consistent data. Subsequently, an intrinsic safety spectrum is delineated and compared with X-ray diffraction (XRD) outcomes to elucidate the correlation between the crystal lattice structure and the thermal behavior of the material. This work aids in the formation of a comparative DSC database, utilizing the vast but inconsistent literature data.
