ABSTRACTWe have prepared polycrystalline bulk samples of various thallium compounds and measured their thermoelectric properties. The most remarkable point of the thermoelectric properties of the thallium compounds is the extremely low thermal conductivity. The state-of-the-art thermoelectric materials such as Bi2Te3 and TAGS materials indicate relatively low the thermal conductivity, around 1.5 W/m/K. However, the thermal conductivity of the thallium compounds is below 0.5 W/m/K; especially that of silver thallium tellurides is around 0.25 W/m/K at room temperature. This extremely low thermal conductivity leads a great advantage for an enhancement of the thermoelectric performance. In this paper, we report on the properties of some thallium compounds selected for study as novel thermoelectric materials. One of these compounds seems to have a thermoelectric figure of merit comparable to those of state-of-the-art materials.

ABSTRACTPolycrystalline-sintered samples of thallium based substances, (Tl2Te)100−x(Sb2Te3)x (x= 0, 1, 5, 10), were prepared by melting Tl2Te and Sb2Te3 ingots followed by annealing in sealed quartz ampoules. The thermoelectric properties were measured from room temperature to around 600 K. The values of the Seebeck coefficient of all samples are positive, indicating a p-type conduction characteristic. The maximum value of the power factor is 6.53×10−4 Wm−1K−2 at 591 K obtained for x= 10 (Tl9SbTe6), which is about one order lower than those of state-of-the-art thermoelectric materials. All samples indicate an extremely low thermal conductivity, for example that of Tl2Te is approximately 0.35 Wm−1K−1 from room temperature to around 600 K. Although the electrical performance of the samples is not so good, the ZT value is relatively high due to the extremely low thermal conductivity. The maximum ZT value is 0.42 at 591 K obtained for Tl9SbTe6.

ABSTRACTWe present the structure and thermoelectric properties of the new quaternary selenides K1+xM4–2xBi7+xSe15 (M = Sn, Pb) and K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22. The compounds K1+xM4-2xBi7+xSe15 (M= Sn, Pb) crystallize isostructural to A1+xPb4-2xSb7+xSe15 with A = K, Rb, while K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22 reveals a new structure type. In both structure types fragments of the Bi2Te3-type and the NaCl-type are connected to a three-dimensional anionic framework with K+ ions filled tunnels. The two structures vary by the size of the NaCl-type rods and are closely related to β-K2Bi8Se13 and K2.5Bi8.5Se14. The thermoelectric properties of K1+xM4-2xBi7+xSe15 (M = Sn, Pb) and K1-xSn5-xBi11+xSe22 were explored on single crystal and ingot samples. These compounds are narrow gap semiconductors and show n-type behavior with moderate Seebeck coefficients. They have very low thermal conductivity due to an extensive disorder of the metal atoms and possible “rattling” K+ ions.

Objective: A new poly(ionic liquid)(PIL), poly(p-vinylbenzyltriphenylphosphine hexafluorophosphate) (P[VBTPP][PF6]), was synthesized by quaternization, anion exchange reaction, and free radical polymerization. Then a series of the PIL were synthesized at different conditions. Methods: The specific heat capacity, glass-transition temperature and melting temperature of the synthesized PILs were measured by differential scanning calorimeter. The thermal conductivities of the PILs were measured by the laser flash analysis method. Results: Results showed that, under optimized synthesis conditions, P[VBTPP][PF6] as the thermal insulator had a high glass-transition temperature of 210.1°C, high melting point of 421.6°C, and a low thermal conductivity of 0.0920 W m-1 K-1 at 40.0°C (it was 0.105 W m-1 K-1 even at 180.0°C). The foamed sample exhibited much low thermal conductivity λ=0.0340 W m-1 K-1 at room temperature, which was comparable to a commercial polyurethane thermal insulating material although the latter had a much lower density. Conclusion: In addition, mixing the P[VBTPP][PF6] sample into polypropylene could obviously increase the Oxygen Index, revealing its efficient flame resistance. Therefore, P[VBTPP][PF6] is a potential thermal insulating material.
