Ionic conductivity of microporous titanosilicate ETS-10 and ion-exchanged Mn+-ETS-10 (where, Mn+ = Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+) thin films prepared by secondary growth method

2017-09-15
Impedance spectroscopy was used to investigate the long-range ionic conductivity of the microporous, titanosilicate (Na,K)-ETS-10 and ion-exchanged Mn+-ETS-10 (where, Mn+ = Li+, Na+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+) thin films prepared by secondary growth method. To figure out the effect of grain boundary on ionic conduction, as-synthesized (Na,K)-ETS-10 films possessing different thicknesses of columnar grain structure (i.e., films prepared via 4h-, 6h-, 8h-, and 10h-growth) were tested. The conductivities of the films with different thicknesses at 723 K were in the range of similar to 10(-3) Omega(-1)cm(-1). However, activation energies of the films decreased from 52.8 to 47.3 kJ mol(-1) (i.e., 0.6 to 0.5 eV) for 4h-(Na,K)-ETS-10 to 10h-(Na,K)-ETS-10 films, respectively. The as-synthesized (Na,K)-ETS-10 film prepared via 6h-growth (denoted as (Na,K)-6h-ETS-10) and monovalent cation-exchanged samples Li- and Na-6h-ETS-10 films exhibit conductivities of 2.1 x 10(-3), 2.4 x 10(-4), and 2.7 x 10(-4) Omega(-1)cm(-1), respectively, at 723 K and activation energies of 50.1, 55.5, and 55.4 kJ mol(-1), respectively, in the temperature range 573-773 K. Divalent cation-exchanged samples Mg-, Zn- and Ca-6h-ETS-10 films exhibit conductivities of 2.3 x 10(-4), 2.9 x 10(-4), and 8.8 x 10(-5) Omega(-1)cm(-1), respectively, at 723 K and activation energies of 62.5, 57.9, and 65.2 kJ mol(-1), respectively, in the temperature range 573-773 K. The data shown here indicate that ionic conductivity of intergrown (Na,K)-ETS-10 films prepared by secondary growth method were significantly enhanced with respect to pressed pellets of powder zeolite and zeo-type materials which imply the importance of engineering the microstructure of the zeolite film to improve the conductivity of zeolites and zeo-type materials.

Electrochemical Behavior of Hydrazine Borane in Methanol Solution
Ozhava, Derya; Önal, Ahmet Muhtar; Özkar, Saim (The Electrochemical Society, 2014-01-01)
Electrochemical behavior of hydrazine borane (HB) was investigated on gold electrode in 0.5 M LiClO4 solution in methanol using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and chronoamperometry. Two irreversible peaks at 164 and 530 mV are attributed to direct electro-oxidation of HB on gold electrode in methanol. Both EIS results and CV data at different scan rates indicate a diffusion controlled electron transfer reaction. Furthermore, the Tafel slope (b = 0.191 V) and charge transfer...
Thermal degradation of polystyrene composites. Part I. The effect of brominated polyepoxy and antimony oxide
Kaya, Hatice; Hacaloğlu, Jale (2014-01-01)
Thermal degradation of polystyrene (PS) involving brominated polyepoxy (BA) and antimony oxide (PS/BE/Sb2O3) was studied systematically via direct pyrolysis mass spectrometry. Thermal decomposition of brominated polyepoxy was started by loss of end groups. The relative yields of high mass thermal degradation products of PS and the product distribution of brominated polyepoxy and antimony oxide were changed noticeably during the pyrolysis of PS/BE/Sb2O3 composite. Its thermal decomposition was initiated by t...

Raman Spectroscopy Investigation of Nano Hydroxyapatite Doped with Yttrium and Fluoride Ions
Yilmaz, Bengi; Evis, Zafer (Informa UK Limited, 2014-01-02)
In this study, nano hydroxyapatite doped with yttrium (2.5, 5, and 7.5mol%) and fluoride (2.5mol%) ions were synthesized by precipitation method and sintered at 900 degrees C, 1100 degrees C, and 1300 degrees C. Raman spectroscopy was applied to track the structural modifications in pure and doped hydroxyapatites. The results showed that the main characteristic band of pure hydroxyapatite at 963cm(-1) was not affected significantly by ion doping but exhibited higher intensity with increasing sintering tempe...
