It has been known for a long time that electron irradiation induces damage in maximal valence transition metal oxides such as TiO2, V2O5, and WO3, of which transition metal ions have an empty d-shell. This type of damage is excited by electronic transition and can be explained by the Knoteck-Feibelman mechanism (K-F mechanism). Although the K-F mechanism predicts that no damage should occur in transition metal oxides of which the transition metal ions have a partially filled d-shell, namely submaximal valence transition metal oxides, our recent study on ReO3 shows that submaximal valence transition metal oxides undergo damage during electron irradiation.ReO3 has a nearly cubic structure and contains a single unit in its cell: a = 3.73 Å, and α = 89°34'. TEM specimens were prepared by depositing dry powders onto a holey carbon film supported on a copper grid. Specimens were examined in Hitachi H-9000 and UHV H-9000 electron microscopes both operated at 300 keV accelerating voltage. The electron beam flux was maintained at about 10 A/cm2 during the observation.

How to remove harmful heavy metal ions from waste batteries or lithium cells efficiently has been the focus of scholars. More and more metal oxides had been used to deal with the pollution of heavy metal caused by waste batteries in recent years. Nanostructured metal oxides have great potential because of their large comparative areas. The adsorption for these heavy metal ions can be further improved by using modified metal oxides as adsorbents. At present, iron oxide is widely used in this field. Other metal oxides have also been studied in removing these heavy metal ions. Compared to other metal oxides, the adsorbents made of iron oxide are easy to be separated from the reaction system. pH value in the solution can affect the activity of adsorption sites on metal oxides adsorbents and change the distribution of ions in solution. As a result, pH value can significantly influence the adsorption of metal oxides adsorbents for heavy metal ions from waste batteries or lithium cells.

Ion doping in transition metal oxides is always considered to be one of the most effective methods to obtain high-performance electrochemical supercapacitors because of the introduction of defective surfaces as well as the enhancement of electrical conductivity. Inspired by the smelting process, an ancient method, quenching is introduced for doping metal ions into transition metal oxides with intriguing physicochemical properties. Herein, as a proof of concept, α-Fe2O3 nanorods grown on carbon cloths (α-Fe2O3@CC) heated at 400 °C are rapidly put into different aqueous solutions of alkaline earth metal salts at 4 °C to obtain electrodes doped with different alkaline earth metal ions (M-Fe2O3@CC). Among them, Sr-Fe2O3@CC shows the best electrochemical capacitance, reaching 77.81 mF cm−2 at the current of 0.5 mA cm−2, which is 2.5 times that of α-Fe2O3@CC. The results demonstrate that quenching is a feasible new idea for improving the electrochemical performances of nanostructured materials.

Five kinds of uniform metal oxide particles (α-Fe2O3, CeO2, CuO, NiO, and SiO2) were coated with polypyrrole by reacting the dispersed solids with pyrrole in a water/ethanol medium without the use of a soluble oxidant. When the process was carried out in air, all particles were coated with the polymer, although the thickness of the layer varied on different cores. In CuO dispersions, independent polypyrrole particles were produced in addition to coated spheres. While oxygen is the major oxidant that initiates the polymerization of pyrrole, some metal oxides may also affect the reaction both in terms of the amount and the composition of the shell. Thus, α-Fe2O3 and SiO2 were found to be inactive in the polymerization, while CeCh and CuO react with the adsorbed pyrrole molecules through a reductive-dissolution process, in which the monomers are oxidized, causing a release of reduced metal ions.
