Prussian blue analogues are of great interest as alternative battery materials because of their long life cycle and potential use of earth-abundant elements. In this work, thin film mixed-metal hexacyanoferrates (HCFs) based on NiCo and NiCu alloys were fabricated in an all electrochemical process. The structure and composition of the samples were characterized, along with the charge storage capacity and kinetics of the charge transfer reaction. For both NiCo-HCF and NiCu-HCF samples, the total charge capacity increased with the substitution of Ni with more Co or Cu, and the increase was larger for Cu samples than for Co samples. On the other hand, the charge storage kinetics had only a modest change with substituted metal, and these effects were independent of the amount of that substitution. Thus, the mixed-metal HCFs have promise for increasing overall storage capacity without negatively influencing the rate capability when used in battery applications.

AbstractPrussian Blue Analogues are of major interest for their use in alternative battery technologies due to their charge storing ability with a long life cycle. In this work the Prussian Blue Analogue nickel hexacyanoferrate (Ni-HCF) was produced using an all electrochemical method. Creating charge storing materials with electrochemical processes provides a new approach to the development of battery-like materials. These methods have not been commonly employed because the charge storing material yield is not directly known. The charge storage of the Ni-HCF was characterized with two different methods which provided a measure of the electrochemically active Fe present. These were then compared with the Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) method which measured the total amount of Fe present. By comparing the electrochemical measurement of active Fe to the total Fe as measured by PIXE, the percentage of material that is active in the charge storage was determined. This enables an independent calculation of the specific charge capacity of the material for comparison to other battery technologies.

Prussian blue analogues (PBAs) have shown to be useful as earth-abundant electrocatalysts for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction (OER) in acidic, neutral and alkaline media. Still, further improvements can be achieved by increasing their electrical conductivity. In this work, we have obtained and fully characterized a variety of monodisperse core@shell hybrid nanoparticles of Au@PBA (PBA of NiIIFeII and CoIIFeII) with different shell sizes. Their electrocatalytical activity is evaluated by studying the OER, which is compared to the pristine PBA and other Au-PBA heterostructures. It was observed that the introduction in a core@shell of 5-10 % of Au in weight leads to an increment in the electroactive mass able to be reduced or oxidized and thus, to a higher number of sites capable to take part in the OER. This larger amount of electroactive sites leads to a significant decrease in the onset potential (a reduction of the onset potential up to 100 mV and an increase up to 420 % of the current density recorded at an overpotential of 350 mV), while the Tafel slope remains unchanged, suggesting that Au reduces the limiting potential of the catalyst with no variation in the reaction kinetics. These effects are not experimented in the other Au-PBA nanostructures mainly due to the lower contact between both compounds and the oxidation of Au. Hence, an Au core activates the PBA shell and increases the conductivity of the resulting hybrid while the PBA shell prevents Au oxidation. These improvements come from the strong synergistic effect existing in the core@shell structure and evidence the importance of the chemical design for preparing PBA-based nanostructures displaying better electrocatalytic performances and higher electrochemical stabilities.
