Here, a bioinspired 3D urchin-like N-doped Murray's carbon nanostructure(N-MCN) with interconnected micro-meso-macroporous structure and a polydopamine protection shell has been designed as an effective sulfur host for high-performance Li-S batteries. The advanced 3D hierarchically porous framework with the characteristics of the generalized Murray's law largely improves electrolyte diffusion, facilitates electrons/ions transfer and provides strong chemisorption for active species, leading to the synergistic structural and chemical confinement of polysulfides. As a result,the obtained P@S/N-MCN electrode with high areal sulfur loading demonstrates high capacity at high current densities after long cycles. This work reveals that following the generalized Murray's law is feasible to design high-performance sulfur cathode materials for potentially practical Li-S battery applications.展开更多
Vapor-liquid phase equilibrium data of tertpentanol in carbon dioxide were measured at temperatures of 313.4, 323.4, 333.5 and 343.5 K and in the pressure range of 4.56--11.44 MPa.

The phase equilibium apparatus used in the work was a variable-volume high-pressure cell. The experimental data were reasonably correlated with Peng-Robinson equation of state（PR-EOS） together with van der Waals-2 two-parameter mixing rules. Henry＇s Law constants and partial molar volumes of CO2 at infinite dilution were estimated with Krichevsky-Kasarnovsky equa- tion, and Henry＇s Law constants increase with increasing temperature, however, partial molar volumes of CO2 at infinite dilution are negative whose magnitudes decrease with temperature. Partial molar volumes of CO2 and tertpentanol in liquid phase at equilibrium were calculated.展开更多
