Oregon State University was awarded a $400,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation Division of Materials Research under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) for the period of September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2026. The award will support research into understanding how electrochemical cation trapping in metal oxides enhances subsequent reversible insertion of anions to form metal oxyhalides. Specifically, the researchers will investigate a new ion insertion mechanism whereby the irreversible insertion of cations in metal oxides promotes reversible anion storage and chloride insertion when forming compounds like manganese oxychloride. Through integrated experimental and computational studies, the researchers aim to establish mechanistic understandings of this process and develop general principles across different host materials, trapped cations, and anion charge carriers. The work is intended to lay the foundation for a new research field utilizing anion insertion to form metal oxyhalides for electric energy storage applications.
