Electrochemical Determination of Manganese Solubility in Mercury via Amalgamation and Stripping in the Room Temperature Ionic Liquid n -Hexyltriethylammonium Bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, [N6,2,2,2][NTf2]

ELECTROANALYSIS, Issue 24 2008

Abstract The solubility of manganese in mercury was determined electrochemically via amalgamation and stripping in the room temperature ionic liquid n -hexyltriethylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, [N6,2,2,2][NTf2]. A hemispherical mercury electrode was made by electrodepositing mercury onto a planar platinum microelectrode. Cyclic voltammetry of Mn2+ in [N6,2,2,2][NTf2] at the mercury microhemisphere electrode was investigated at temperatures of 298, 303 and 313,K. The solubility of Mn in Hg was determined on the basis of the charge under the reduction peak (Mn2+,Mn0) and the corresponding reoxidation. [source]


Li-ion anodes in air-stable and hydrophobic ionic liquid-based electrolyte for safer and greener batteries

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENERGY RESEARCH, Issue 2 2010

Abstract In this paper we report on the use of the ionic liquid N -butyl- N -methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethansulfonyl)imide, PYR14TFSI, in combination with a graphite and silicon electrodes at room temperature. The performance of the investigated electrodes has been considered in terms of specific capacity, cycling efficiency and cycling stability. The influence of two different binders on the performance of graphite electrode has also been considered. The results show that in electrolytic solutions based on PYR14TFSI the addition of an electrolyte additive is necessary for the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). The reported results show also that the selection of the binder is important for the increase of the performance in graphite electrodes. Finally, the comparison of the performance of the investigated electrodes showed that silicon electrodes display higher compatibility with PYR14TFSI with respect to graphite electrodes.

Synthesis of the Clathrate-II K8.6(4)Ge136 by Oxidation of K4Ge9 in an Ionic Liquid

EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 17 2009

Abstract The new clathrate-II K8.6(4)Ge136 has been synthesized by mild oxidation of K4Ge9 in the ionic liquid n -dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DTAC)/AlCl3 at 300 °C and subsequent annealing at 370 °C. Refinement of the crystal structure from X-ray powder diffraction data revealed the composition K8.6(4)Ge136 [space group Fdm, a = 15.302(1) Å], which was also confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDXS), transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy on the bulk material. K atoms preferably occupy the larger Ge28 cages rather than the Ge20 cages in the clathrate-II structure. K8.6(4)Ge136 is metastable and was found to decompose exothermically at 471 °C.
