AbstractThis paper presents applications of in situ X-ray diffraction and absorption techniques to the study of H+/MnO2 alkaline batteries. The two complementary in situ techniques are described. Investigation of the electrochemical insertion and deinsertion of H+ has been made through its influence on the evolution of the crystallographic structure of γ-MnO2, while investigation of the transfer of e has been undertaken through the variation of the oxidation state of the manganese during the discharging and charging process of a battery. New insights in the understanding of the mechanisms of proton insertion and charge transfer into γ-MnO2 are discussed.

A well designed compact furnace has been designed for in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS). It enables various heat ramps from 300 K to 1473 K. The furnace consists of heaters, a quartz tube, a circulated refrigerator and a power controller. It can generate ohmic heating via an induction process with tantalum filaments. The maximum heating rate exceeds 20 K min−1. A quartz tube with gas feedthroughs allows the mixing of gases and adjustment of the flow rate. The use of this compact furnace allows in situ XAS investigations to be carried out in transmission or fluorescence modes under controlled temperature and atmosphere. Moreover, the furnace is compact, light and well compatible to XAS. The furnace was used to study cationic oxidation states in Pr6O11 and NiO compounds under elevated temperature and reduced atmosphere using the in situ X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) technique at beamline 5.2 SUT-NANOTEC-SLRI of the Synchrotron Light Research Institute, Thailand. At room temperature, Pr6O11 contains a mixture of Pr3+ and Pr4+ cations, resulting in an average oxidation state of +3.67. In situ XANES spectra of Pr (L 3-edge) show that the oxidation state of Pr4+ cations was totally reduced to +3.00 at 1273 K under H2 atmosphere. Considering NiO, Ni2+ species were present under ambient conditions. At 573 K, the reduction process of Ni2+ occurred. The Ni0/Ni2+ ratio increased linearly with respect to the heating temperature. Finally, the reduction process of Ni2+ was completely finished at 770 K.

(La0.6Sr0.4)(Co0.2Fe0.8)O3–δ (LSCF) has been promised as a cathode material of solid oxide fuel cells at intermediate temperatures. Despite the many previous studies of LSCF that have been reported, the role of Co and Fe atoms in the oxygen ion conduction is still unclear. In this work, we aimed at presenting each valence, oxygen chemical diffusion coefficient (Dchem) and activation energy (Ea) related to Co and Fe in LSCF by in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) at high temperatures and during reduction. For quantitative analysis of X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy, these results indicated that the Co valence decreased more easily than the Fe valence. On the other hand, from relaxation plots of the Co and Fe valence during reduction, the values of Dchem and Ea related to Co and Fe were nearly equal. Considering equations showing the oxygen ion conductivity, these results would indicate that oxygen ion conductivity was contributed by Co with more oxygen vacancies rather than Fe. According to these results, a structural model with and without oxygen vacancies and the oxygen ion conduction mechanism of LSCF was speculated, that is, we found that oxygen ion conductivity was more closely related to Co than Fe in LSCF by direct observations of in situ XAS.

AbstractThe local co-ordination environment of Zr in a model alkali borosilicate glass, of relevance to nuclear waste immobilisation, was studied by in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy between 25 – 1060°C. Analysis of Zr K-edge XANES spectra, in comparison with those of well characterised standards, demonstrated, for the first time, the reversible transformation of ZrO6 to ZrO7 co-ordination polyhedra at high temperature. This observation was rationalised on the basis of the combined effects of network modifier cation diffusion and thermal expansion.
