Iron and lithium-iron alkyl phosphates as nanostructured material for rechargeable batteries
2018
Abstract Inorganic/organic hybrid materials composed by iron atoms bonded to an alkyl phosphate can be easily synthesized by mixing at 110 °C iron chlorides with tri-alkyl phosphates. Since structural information on these products are lacking and taking into account that lithium/iron organic hybrid materials are important in lithium ion battery technology we report here the physico-chemical characterization of different hybrid lithium/iron butylphosphates. These materials are characterized by the presence of elongated hexagonal crystals stable up to 315 °C. The insertion of lithium does not affect the local structure. Thanks to such structures the material can be electrochemically-cycled an…
Photo-fragmentation of alkyl phosphates in the gas-phase
2018
Abstract Alkyl phosphates are experiencing an ever increasing use due to the current arising of new applications. This implies their increasing presence in the environment so their stability and reactivity under high-energy photons, which are still unknown, need to be clarified. In this study, a mass spectrometric investigation of the ionization and fragmentation processes of four representative alkyl phosphates (dibutyl, tributyl, bis-2-ethylhexyl, and tris-2-ethylhexyl phosphate) induced by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) radiation has been carried out. The experimental data show that fragmentation occurs through a stepwise cleavage of the bonds between the phosphate group and the alkyl chains l…
