Ultrasonic Spray Deposition as a Superior Strategy for Electrochemically Stable and Scalable Battery Electrodes in Structural Batteries

Thomas D. Burns, Giulio Siciliano, Liliana DeLatte, Paul Coman et autres

The electrochemical performance and durability of lithium-ion battery electrodes are strongly influenced by coating uniformity, interfacial contact, and microstructural stability. These challenges are amplified when transitioning from conventional planar current collectors to complex, multifunctional architectures such as carbon fiber reinforcements used in …

Prediction of MOF Performance in Vacuum Swing Adsorption Systems for Postcombustion CO2 Capture Based on Integrated Molecular Simulations, Process Optimizations, and Machine Learning Models

Thomas D. Burns, Kasturi Nagesh Pai, Sai Gokul Subraveti, Sean P. Collins et autres

Abstract Postcombustion CO2 capture and storage (CCS) is a key technological approach to reducing greenhouse gas emission while we transition to carbon-free energy production. However, current solvent-based CO2 capture processes are considered too energetically expensive for widespread deployment. Vacuum swing adsorption (VSA) …

Intercalation of Coordinatively Unsaturated FeIII Ion within Interpenetrated Metal–Organic Framework MOF‐5

Rebecca J. Holmberg, Thomas D. Burns, Samuel M. Greer, Libor Kobera et autres

Coordinatively unsaturated Fe(III) metal sites were successfully incorporated into the iconic MOF-5 framework. This new structure, Fe(III) -iMOF-5, is the first example of an interpenetrated MOF linked through intercalated metal ions. Structural characterization was performed with single-crystal and powder XRD, followed by …
