XRD, FT-IR, SEM and surface area measurement tech niques were used to investigate the properties of the CuO powder. The results sh ow that the decomposition temperature has remarkably effect on crystallite size, morphology, surface structure, IR behavior and activity of the powder for H2O2 decomposition. The major morphology of the particle is fluffy-sphered in the l ower temperature, which is consists of small sheets of crystallite. With the inc reasing of calcination temperature, crystal of CuO grows up, the fluffy-sphere d particle reduces and catalytic activity decreases. FT-IR patterns revealed t hat the absorption of Cu-O and -OH bond in CuO ultrafine powder were red-s hifted.展开更多

The as-prepared porous CuO nanowires exhibit a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller （BET） surface area of 13.05 m^2.g^-1, which is six times larger than that of bulk CuO （2.16 m^2.g^-1）. The anode of porous CuO nanowires showed discharge capacities of 640 mA.h.g^-1 in the first cycle and 303 mA.h.g^-1 after 50 cycles at 50 mA.g^-1 The high capacity is attributed to porous nanostructure which facilitates fast Na-intercalation kinetics. The mechanism of electrochemical Na-storage based on conversion reactions has been studied through cyclic voltammetry, X-ray diffraction （XRD）, Raman spectroscopy, and high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）. It is demonstrated that in the discharge process, Na＋ions first insert into CuO to form a CuⅡ1-x CuⅠ x O1-x/2solid and a Na2O matrix then CuⅡ1-xCu Ⅰ xO1-x/2 reacts with Na＋ to produce Cu2O, and finally Cu2O decompose into Cu nanoparticles enclosed in a Na2O matrix. During the charge process, Cu nanopartides are first oxidized to generate Cu2O and then converted back to CuO. This result contributes to the design and mechanistic analysis of high-performance anodes for rechargeable Na-ion batteries.展开更多
