Synergetic Dual-Additive Electrolyte Enables Highly Stable Performance in Sodium Metal Batteries.

Energy and Environment Directorate, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Richland, WA, 99354, USA.

Sodium (Na)-metal batteries (SMBs) are considered one of the most promising candidates for the large-scale energy storage market owing to their high theoretical capacity (1,166 mAh g) and the abundance of Na raw material. However, the limited stability of electrolytes still hindered the application of SMBs. Herein, sulfolane (Sul) and vinylene carbonate (VC) are identified as effective dual additives that can largely stabilize propylene carbonate (PC)-based electrolytes, prevent dendrite growth, and extend the cycle life of SMBs.

Article Synopsis
  • - Sulfite is added to wine to prevent oxidation by reacting with key compounds like carbonyls and polyphenols, helping maintain wine stability.
  • - Recent lab studies showed that compounds formed with sulfite, like cysteine and epicatechin sulfonates, remain stable during aging, while acetaldehyde binds and releases sulfite over time.
  • - The study used H NMR to track how sulfur dioxide interacts with carbonyls and sulfur-containing amino acids, highlighting their important role in wine aging and oxidative stability.

Unexpected high yield of acrolein underlies the importance of the hydrogen-abstraction mechanism in photooxidation of allyl methyl sulfide (AMS).

Computational Chemistry and Biology Group (CCBG), DETEMA, Facultad de Química, UdelaR, Montevideo, Uruguay. Electronic address:

This work explores theoretically the gas phase oxidation of allyl methyl sulfide (AMS, HCCHCHSCH) initiated by OH radicals, focusing on the H-abstraction pathway at the M06-2X-D3/aug-cc-pVTZ and MN15/aug-cc-pVTZ levels of theory (m06Tz and mn15Tz). The formation of a prereactive complex (PRC) is involved in H-abstraction processes with two potential directions of approach for the OH radical, denoted as "α" and "β". The PRCs, demonstrate increased reactivity, primarily due to the interaction between the sulfur atoms and the hydroxyl hydrogen.
