Implementation of orbitrap mass spectrometry for improved GC-MS target analysis in lithium ion battery electrolytes.

ABSTRACT: The implementation of orbitrap mass spectrometry for target analysis of volatile species in aged lithium-ion batteries was performed in a case study on butyl carbonates. In comparison to previously applied single quadrupole-based methods, major improvements were obtained.•Sensitivity was improved by effectively background free extracted ion chromatograms of identified marker fragment ions.•Typical isobaric interferences of typical carbonate fragment ions e.g. caused by column bleeding were identified and false positive identification avoided.•Analysis of isotope labeled electrolytes was optimized regarding mass spectrometric data reliability with mass accuracies <0.5 ppm and mass resolutions >100,000.

Superconcentrated electrolytes for a high-voltage lithium-ion battery.

Project description:Finding a viable electrolyte for next-generation 5 V-class lithium-ion batteries is of primary importance. A long-standing obstacle has been metal-ion dissolution at high voltages. The LiPF6 salt in conventional electrolytes is chemically unstable, which accelerates transition metal dissolution of the electrode material, yet beneficially suppresses oxidative dissolution of the aluminium current collector; replacing LiPF6 with more stable lithium salts may diminish transition metal dissolution but unfortunately encounters severe aluminium oxidation. Here we report an electrolyte design that can solve this dilemma. By mixing a stable lithium salt LiN(SO2F)2 with dimethyl carbonate solvent at extremely high concentrations, we obtain an unusual liquid showing a three-dimensional network of anions and solvent molecules that coordinate strongly to Li(+) ions. This simple formulation of superconcentrated LiN(SO2F)2/dimethyl carbonate electrolyte inhibits the dissolution of both aluminium and transition metal at around 5 V, and realizes a high-voltage LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4/graphite battery that exhibits excellent cycling durability, high rate capability and enhanced safety.

Metabolomics Benefits from Orbitrap GC-MS-Comparison of Low- and High-Resolution GC-MS.

Project description:The development of improved mass spectrometers and supporting computational tools is expected to enable the rapid annotation of whole metabolomes. Essential for the progress is the identification of strengths and weaknesses of novel instrumentation in direct comparison to previous instruments. Orbitrap liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS) technology is now widely in use, while Orbitrap gas chromatography (GC)-MS introduced in 2015 has remained fairly unexplored in its potential for metabolomics research. This study aims to evaluate the additional knowledge gained in a metabolomics experiment when using the high-resolution Orbitrap GC-MS in comparison to a commonly used unit-mass resolution single-quadrupole GC-MS. Samples from an osmotic stress treatment of a non-model organism, the microalga Skeletonema costatum, were investigated using comparative metabolomics with low- and high-resolution methods. Resulting datasets were compared on a statistical level and on the level of individual compound annotation. Both MS approaches resulted in successful classification of stressed vs. non-stressed microalgae but did so using different sets of significantly dysregulated metabolites. High-resolution data only slightly improved conventional library matching but enabled the correct annotation of an unknown. While computational support that utilizes high-resolution GC-MS data is still underdeveloped, clear benefits in terms of sensitivity, metabolic coverage, and support in structure elucidation of the Orbitrap GC-MS technology for metabolomics studies are shown here.

Solvation-property relationship of lithium-sulphur battery electrolytes.

Project description:The Li-S battery is a promising next-generation battery chemistry that offers high energy density and low cost. The Li-S battery has a unique chemistry with intermediate sulphur species readily solvated in electrolytes, and understanding their implications is important from both practical and fundamental perspectives. In this study, we utilise the solvation free energy of electrolytes as a metric to formulate solvation-property relationships in various electrolytes and investigate their impact on the solvated lithium polysulphides. We find that solvation free energy influences Li-S battery voltage profile, lithium polysulphide solubility, Li-S battery cyclability and the Li metal anode; weaker solvation leads to lower 1st plateau voltage, higher 2nd plateau voltage, lower lithium polysulphide solubility, and superior cyclability of Li-S full cells and Li metal anodes. We believe that relationships delineated in this study can guide the design of high-performance electrolytes for Li-S batteries.

Developmental Toxicity and Apoptosis in Zebrafish: The Impact of Lithium Hexafluorophosphate (LiPF<sub>6</sub>) from Lithium-Ion Battery Electrolytes.

Project description:With the growing dependence on lithium-ion batteries, there is an urgent need to understand the potential developmental toxicity of LiPF6, a key component of these batteries. Although lithium's toxicity is well-established, the biological toxicity of LiPF6 has been minimally explored. This study leverages the zebrafish model to investigate the developmental impact of LiPF6 exposure. We observed morphological abnormalities, reduced spontaneous movement, and decreased hatching and swim bladder inflation rates in zebrafish embryos, effects that intensified with higher LiPF6 concentrations. Whole-mount in situ hybridization demonstrated that the specific expression of the swim bladder outer mesothelium marker anxa5b was suppressed in the swim bladder region under LiPF6 exposure. Transcriptomic analysis disclosed an upregulation of apoptosis-related gene sets. Acridine orange staining further supported significant induction of apoptosis. These findings underscore the environmental and health risks of LiPF6 exposure and highlight the necessity for improved waste management strategies for lithium-ion batteries.

Lithium Ion Battery Anode Aging Mechanisms.

Project description:Degradation mechanisms such as lithium plating, growth of the passivated surface film layer on the electrodes and loss of both recyclable lithium ions and electrode material adversely affect the longevity of the lithium ion battery. The anode electrode is very vulnerable to these degradation mechanisms. In this paper, the most common aging mechanisms occurring at the anode during the operation of the lithium battery, as well as some approaches for minimizing the degradation are reviewed.

Highly Conductive In-SnO2/RGO Nano-Heterostructures with Improved Lithium-Ion Battery Performance.

Project description:The increasing demand of emerging technologies for high energy density electrochemical storage has led many researchers to look for alternative anode materials to graphite. The most promising conversion and alloying materials do not yet possess acceptable cycle life or rate capability. In this work, we use tin oxide, SnO2, as a representative anode material to explore the influence of graphene incorporation and In-doping to increase the electronic conductivity and concomitantly improve capacity retention and cycle life. It was found that the incorporation of In into SnO2 reduces the charge transfer resistance during cycling, prolonging life. It is also hypothesized that the increased conductivity allows the tin oxide conversion and alloying reactions to both be reversible, leading to very high capacity near 1200 mAh/g. Finally, the electrodes show excellent rate capability with a capacity of over 200 mAh/g at 10C.

Hierarchical Mo2C@CNT Hybrid Structure Formation for the Improved Lithium-Ion Battery Storage Performance.

Project description:2-D transition metal carbides (TMCs)-based anode materials offer competitive performance in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its excellent conductivity; cheaper, flexible uses; and superior mechanical stability. However, the electrochemical energy storage of TMCs is still the major obstacle due to their modest capacity and the trends of restacking/aggregation. In this report, the Mo2C nanosheets were attached on conductive CNT network to form a hierarchical 2D hybrid structure, which not only alleviated the aggregation of the Mo2C nanoparticle and facilitated the rapid transference of ion/electron, but also adapted effectually to the hefty volume expansion of Mo2C nanosheets and prevented restacking/collapse of Mo2C structure. Benefitting from the layered Mo2@CNT hybrid structure, the charge/discharge profile produced a 200 mAh g-1 discharge-specific capacity (second cycle) and 132 mAh g-1 reversible-discharge discharge-specific capacity (after 100 cycles) at 50 mA g-1 current density, with high-speed competency and superior cycle stability. The improved storage kinetics for Mo2@CNT hybrid structure are credited to the creation of numerous active catalytic facets and association reaction between the CNT and Mo2C, promoting the efficient electron transfer and enhancing the cycling stability.

WiPP: Workflow for Improved Peak Picking for Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) Data.

Project description:Lack of reliable peak detection impedes automated analysis of large-scale gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) metabolomics datasets. Performance and outcome of individual peak-picking algorithms can differ widely depending on both algorithmic approach and parameters, as well as data acquisition method. Therefore, comparing and contrasting between algorithms is difficult. Here we present a workflow for improved peak picking (WiPP), a parameter optimising, multi-algorithm peak detection for GC-MS metabolomics. WiPP evaluates the quality of detected peaks using a machine learning-based classification scheme based on seven peak classes. The quality information returned by the classifier for each individual peak is merged with results from different peak detection algorithms to create one final high-quality peak set for immediate down-stream analysis. Medium- and low-quality peaks are kept for further inspection. By applying WiPP to standard compound mixes and a complex biological dataset, we demonstrate that peak detection is improved through the novel way to assign peak quality, an automated parameter optimisation, and results in integration across different embedded peak picking algorithms. Furthermore, our approach can provide an impartial performance comparison of different peak picking algorithms. WiPP is freely available on GitHub (https://github.com/bihealth/WiPP) under MIT licence.

Alkaline Earth Bismuth Fluorides as Fluoride-Ion Battery Electrolytes.

Project description:Fluoride-ion batteries have several potential advantages over lithium-ion batteries. Materials development is still needed, however, to realize electrolytes with sufficiently high anion conductivity and compatibility with anode and cathode layers. Fluoride compounds are difficult to synthesize directly as single crystals but can be realized from oxide film precursors via topotactic chemistry techniques. Here, we create crystalline alkaline earth bismuth fluoride films BaBiF5 and SrBiF5 through oxide molecular beam epitaxy and topotactic fluorination. We characterize their ionic conductivities and demonstrate their potential as electrolytes. Finally, we realize epitaxial synthesis of BaBiF5 on BaF2 substrates, providing a route to thin film fluoride-ion battery devices.
