Self-assembled nanostructures of PDI-bolaamphiphiles as anode materials for advanced rechargeable Na-ion batteries

Design and synthesis of few-layer molybdenum oxide selenide encapsulated in a 3D interconnected nitrogen-doped carbon anode toward high-performance sodium storage

“…The multitudinous anode materials for SIBs have been explored and studied so far, such as carbon-based materials, 9 alloy-based materials, 10,11 transition metal compounds, 12,13 and some organic materials. 14 Among them, layered transition metal dichalcogenides (MX 2 , where X stands for S, Se, or Te) with two-dimensional (2D) layered structures with large and adjustable interlayer spacings have proven to be good potential SIB anodes. 15–17 However, the practical application of most MX 2 suffers from severe pulverization caused by volume expansion upon cycling, 18,19 leading to a significant decline of electrical conductivity and decay of capacity upon cycling.…”

NDI based C2‐symmetric Chiral Supramolecular Hydrogels Towards Enhanced Conductivity

“…The strength of the C=C stretching frequency decreased in the spectra of xerogels, showing the participation of π-π interactions between NDI cores. [31] There were some common peaks in the FTIR spectra of the functional group isomers of the bipyridyl compounds (Figure 4B), including a strong, and sharp peak around 1600-1650 cm À 1 that corresponds to he stretchingvibration C=N of the bipyridine ring and peaks around 1450-1500 cm À 1 that correspond to the stretching-vibration CÀ C of the bipyridine. There were also some peaks that distinguished the functional group isomers of the bipyridyl compound.…”

Electrospun perylene dianhydride electrodes with fine micro-nanostructures for high-performance lithium-organic batteries

“…10,11 To overcome these issues, micro-nanostructure strategies have been adopted to fabricate organic electrodes with improved electron and ion transport and stability in electrochemical processes. [12][13][14][15][16] For example, Baddi et al synthesized various nanostructures from PDI-bolaamphiphiles with amino acid substituents using a self-assembly strategy, showing tunable electrochemical properties. 13 Li et al reported a strategy of in situ nanocoating of graphdiyne on an organic electrode, displaying a higher capacity and superior cycling stability compared to the pristine organic electrode.…”
