“…Research related to it concerns the same or similar compounds as in the case of the chemical method, i.e. transition metal chalcogenides and dichalcogenides [191][192][193] and oxides [194], and carbonaceous materials [195] due to their use in lithium-ion batteries. Similarly to the chemical processes, metal ions are intercalated and the driving force here is an electric current.…”

“…It corresponds to the structure in which for one cation of alkali metal falls six carbon atoms. Electrochemical intercalations are usually conducted in two- [191,192,194] or three-electrode systems [193,195,196], with a working electrode prepared of a material, whose structure should be intercalated. Counter and reference electrode are usually made of a metal source of intercalating ions.…”

Layered iron-based superconducting chalcogenides intercalated with molecular species are the subject of intensive studies, especially in the field of solid state chemistry and condensed matter physics, because of their intriguing chemistry and tunable electric and magnetic properties. Considerable progress in the research, revealing superconducting inorganic-organic hybrid materials with transition temperatures to superconducting state, T , up to 46 K, has been brought in recent years. These novel materials are synthesized by low-temperature intercalation of molecular species, such as solvates of alkali metals and nitrogen-containing donor compounds, into layered FeSe-type structure. Both the chemical nature as well as orientation of organic molecules between the layers of inorganic host, play an important role in structural modifications and may be used for fine tuning of superconducting properties. Furthermore, a variety of donor species compatible with alkali metals, as well as the possibility of doping also in the host structure (either on Fe or Se sites), makes this system quite flexible and gives a vast array of new materials with tunable electric and magnetic properties. In this review, the main aspects of intercalation chemistry are discussed with a particular attention paid to the influence of the unique nature of intercalating species on the crystal structure and physical properties of the hybrid inorganic-organic materials. To get a full picture of these materials, a comprehensive description of the most effective chemical and electrochemical methods, utilized for synthesis of intercalated species, with critical evaluation of their strong and weak points, related to feasibility of synthesis, phase purity, crystal size and morphology of final products, is included as well.

“…Materials are deemed important or have a high impact based on the particular properties that make them well suited for applications in which they are used. For photovoltaics, this might be the improvement of photovoltaic performance of electrochemical cells [3][4][5]; for magnetic materials it might be the magnetic flux density [6]; for thermal energy storage it might be the specific heat capacity [7][8][9][10][11] or the phase change enthalpy [12,13]. Lithium is always listed as a critical material in electric batteries [2,14].…”

a b s t r a c tLithium, mainly used in electrical energy storage, has also been studied in thermal energy storage. It is recognized as a "critical material" and is produced from minerals and from brines. Chile is one of the biggest producers, here from brine and with lower costs than in other countries. With sensible heat storage, in solar power plants lithium is seen as a way to improve the properties of molten salts used today. The low melting point in these ternary salts with lithium, represent a considerable reduction in the maintenance and operational costs associated with current solar technology, demonstrating that the fluids showed, are potential candidates for thermal energy storage (TES) in concentrated solar plants (CSP) plants. Many materials have been studied and proposed to be used as phase change materials (PCM). Between the multiple materials studied to be used in PCM, lithium materials and mixtures are listed as potential PCM for building applications and for high temperature applications. In thermochemical energy storage, lithium compounds have been used mainly in chemical heat pumps, following their use in absorption cooling.
