* Front futures rebound after posting 2-1/2-month low Friday * Cooler late-week outlook lifts prospects for demand * Near record-high storage, production limit price gains (Releads, adds analyst quote, updates with closing prices) By Joe Silha NEW YORK, Dec 17 U.S. natural gas futures ended higher on Monday for the first time in eight sessions, backed by technical buying and colder Northeast and Midwest weather forecasts for later this week and next week that should stir more heating demand. The front-month contract, which hit a 13-month high of $3.933 three weeks ago, broke a seven-session losing streak that saw prices slide more than 10 percent, their biggest seven-day drop in four months. "We had a long losing streak, so we were bound to get some short-covering. The forecast looks a little cooler than normal which is supportive for heating demand, but this move up could be temporary unless the cooler temperatures stick around," said Jonathan Lee at Ecova Inc In Washington. Most chart traders agreed the market was due for a technical bounce after its recent stumble, noting the 14-day relative strength index, an indicator of market momentum, slid into very oversold territory in the mid 20s late last week. Front-month gas futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange ended up 4.4 cents, or 1.3 percent, at $3.358 per million British thermal units, after trading between $3.277 and $3.395. The nearby contract dipped to $3.261 on Friday, its lowest since late September. But even with some chilly weather ahead, few traders expected much upside with no extreme cold on the horizon, noting inventories were still at record highs for this time of year and production was flowing at or near an all-time peak. AccuWeather.com expects temperatures in the Northeast and Midwest, key gas-consuming regions, to average above normal for a few days, then cool to below normal later this week and next week, as daytime highs drop into the 20s and 30s Fahrenheit. But despite the cooler outlook, which should boost heating needs, traders said demand during the Christmas and New Year holiday weeks typically slows regardless of weather because many schools and businesses are closed. DRILLING DECLINES, OUTPUT STILL NEAR RECORD Baker Hughes data on Friday showed the gas-directed rig count fell by one last week to 416, leaving the count just above the 13-1/2-year low of 413 posted five weeks ago. (Rig graphic: r.reuters.com/dyb62s) Drilling for natural gas has mostly been in decline for more than a year, with gas rigs down 56 percent since peaking in 2011 at 936 in October. But so far production has not shown any significant sign of slowing. The U.S. Energy Information Administration last week said it expected gas output in 2013 to rise to a record high of 69.59 billion cubic feet per day, the third straight annual record. INVENTORIES HOVER NEAR RECORD HIGHS EIA data last week also showed gas inventories for the week ended Dec. 7 rose by 2 bcf to 3.806 trillion cubic feet. The rare December injection was viewed as bearish, with most traders expecting a slight decline. Gas inventories typically fall by more than 100 bcf during the first week of December. Inventories are still at a record high for this time of year, hovering at about 1 percent above year-ago levels and 8 percent above the five-year average. (Storage graphic: link.reuters.com/mup44s ) Storage hit a record high of 3.929 tcf in early November, making this the fourth straight year in which inventories headed into the heating season at an all-time peak. The storage surplus is expected to widen further in this Thursday's report, with early withdrawal estimates ranging from 57 bcf to 89 bcf. That would be well short of both the 100 bcf pulled from inventory during the same week last year and the five-year average decline for that week of 144 bcf.

How Barça's players fared in the 2016 Copa América group stage
Three of the four current Blaugrana players competing are still alive, including Messi, Mascherano, and Bravo
Of the four FC Barcelona players who have seen action in this summer's Copa America Centenario, three of them are still alive as the prestigious tournament heads into the knockout phase. If you love to bet, you can find all football betting options at one place – William Hill.
Claudio Bravo of Chile, and Leo Messi and Javier Mascherano of Argentina have made it out of Group D and into the quarterfinals.
A meeting in the final is possible, where fans in the United States would be treated to a rematch of last years' title game.
Luis Suárez was on Uruguay's roster, but did not play a single minute due to injury. Uruguay was knocked out early after losing their first two games.
Dani Alves, who recently announced he was moving on after eight seasons defending the Blaugrana shirt, was also given an early exit, as Brazil were sent packing after receiving the shock of the tournament, losing to Peru in their third game.
Here's a closer look at what each current Barça player did in the group stage:
Leo Messi
The Barça striker scored three goals — all in the same game — to lead Argentina to three wins in three tries. He played just 75 minutes total, as La Albiceleste beat Chile, 2–1; Panama, 5–0; and Bolivia, 3–0. A hat trick, a double nutmeg, and a near goal on a free kick were the highlights.
Javier Mascherano
The defensive midfielder was the backbone of the Argentina national team in their first two games – which he started – although he did not play against Bolivia.
Claudio Bravo
The FC Barcelona goalkeeper, and captain of the defending Copa América champions, started and played all 90 minutes of Chile's three games in Group D. After falling to Messi and Argentina, Chile rebounded to beat Bolivia, 2–1, and Panama, 4–2.
Luis Suárez
The 2015/16 Golden Shoe winner spent the weeks prior to the Copa América recovering from a hamstring injury he sustained in Barça's Copa del Rey final win in mid-May.
Nevertheless, he was not ready for Uruguay's first two games, a pair of 1–0 losses to Mexico and Venezuela. With Uruguay mathematically eliminated, Suárez also sat out the team's 3–0 win over Jamaica.
Argentina, Chile win; Copa América quarterfinal bracket set
Messi and Bravo play, Mascherano sits, as both teams cruise into the quarterfinals
A trio of FC Barcelona stars were once again in action on the same day at the 2016 Copa América.
But this time, instead of going toe-to-toe, as they did on June 6 in Santa Clara, Argentina and Chile, who were last year's finalists, were playing on opposite sides of the country.
Argentina beat Bolivia, 3–0, at Century Link Field in Seattle, Washington. Lionel Messi did not start, but he came in for Gonzalo Higuaín in the second half and was held scoreless while managing a pair of shots on goal. Javier Mascherano, however, did not play.
Around the same time the Argentina–Bolivia game was kicking off, some 2,800 miles away (4,500km) at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Chile was putting the finishing touches on their 4–2 win over Panama.
FC Barcelona goalkeeper Claudio Bravo played all 90 minutes for Chile and turned in a clean sheet. Bravo made two saves and completed 32 of 35 pass attempts (91%).
Both teams have made it out of Group D and into the quarterfinals.
Argentina, which won Group D with 9 points after going a perfect three-for-three — including a head-to-head win over Chile — will face Group C runners-up Venezuela in the quarterfinals. That game kicks off at 7.00pm ET on June 18 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts.
Chile's last eight match pits them against Group C winners Mexico, also on June 18. That game will kick off at 10.00pm ET at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.
Andrés Iniesta, the MVP king
The FC Barcelona captain was named the best player on the pitch in Spain's Euro 2016 opener against Czech Republic, winning the prize in five different competitions
Despite now being one of the veterans of the squad, Andrés Iniesta's influence remains as strong as ever, as demonstrated with another glowing display in Spain's Group D opener against Czech Republic on Monday.
The FC Barcelona captain curled in an inch-perfect cross for club colleague Gerard Pique to head home from close range with just three minutes remaining, handing Spain a vital three points.
As well as the assist, Iniesta was the most influential player on the park, conducting the pace of the game from midfield and keeping the Czech side constantly on their toes. As a result of his performance, the 32-year-old was given the man-of-the-match award by UEFA, a prize which has become somewhat common for the midfield maestro.
Iniesta was voted the MVP of the recent Copa del Rey final win over Sevilla and has previously won the award in the Champions League and the European Super Cup at club level.
His most memorable MVP awards for Barça are the one in the European Super Cup against Porto in 2011, the Champions League final in Berlin last year, and this season's Copa del Rey final.
On the international stage, Iniesta was voted MVP in the World Cup, in the final no less, where he scored the game's only goal against the Netherlands in 2010 to land Spain the trophy. And two years later, in the Euro 2012 final against Italy, he was again the standout player on the field.
One month since FC Barcelona clinched Liga title
We look back at a memorable day when a hat-trick from Golden Shoe winner Luis Suárez sparked jubilance among the team and its supporters around the world
On May 14, Barça clinched the Liga title at Granada. One month later, this is the perfect time to remember a perfect day.
Luis Enrique came into the final match with a one-point lead on Real Madrid. Atlético Madrid, meanwhile, had lost all hope of challenging for the title after going down 2-1 at Levante the week before.
A win against Granada would have secured the title regardless of events at Riazor, where Madrid did indeed win their game.
And Barça were in full control of affairs in Andalusia. Luis Suárez put the Blaugrana ahead after 21 minutes and had extended the lead before the half-time whistle had blown.
The Uruguayan eventually made absolute certain of the title, and the Golden Shoe, with a third goal with five minutes to go.
After celebrations both on the pitch and in the dressing rooms, the party shifted to the city of Barcelona. The joy was especially intense after a season in which the title quest had looked done and dusted, but a series of adverse results in April suddenly put matters in considerable doubt.
But Barça regrouped in time and won their last five games without conceding a goal to take the domestic title for the second year in a row and the sixth time in the last eight seasons.
The final of the Copa del Rey was just a week later, but there was still time to celebrate the league triumph. The players paraded through the city on an open-top bus before switching their attentions to the cup final against Sevilla, where they would complete a famous double with an extra time win.
Luis Suárez's Uruguay bow out of Copa America with 3-0 defeat of Jamaica
FC Barcelona striker unable to feature in any of his country's three games and leaves US dwelling on what might have been
Uruguay won their final match in Group C of the Copa America Centenario, 3-0 against Jamaica in Santa Clara with goals from Abel Hernández, Je-Vaughn Watson (own goal) and Mathias Corujo.
But it was too little, too late from the side that has won this trophy more than any other nation. They already knew before the game that they had no hope of progressing to the last eight after defeats to the two sides that do qualify: Mexico and Venezuela.
Once again, Barça striker Luis Suárez watched events unfold from the bench, and will be leaving the United States dwelling on what might have been had he not been carrying an injury sustained in the Copa de Rey final against Sevilla.
Peru hand defeat to Brazil
Uruguay was not the only major casualty of the biggest Copa America ever, which for the first time includes sixteen nations. Brazil, with former Barça man Dani Alves in the squad but Neymar Jr and Rafinha absent, have also packed their bags.
A Peruvian goal scored with the hand meant they bowed out in controversial fashion, but that did not disguise the fact USA 2016 did not see Brazil play anything like the level of football usually expected of the 'canarinha'.
The teams that did qualify from Group B are Peru, who will now play Colombia in East Rutherford, and Ecuador who travel to Seattle to play the host nation.
Chile seeking to follow Argentina into quarters
With Uruguay and Brazil out of the picture, things are looking better than ever for Leo Messi and Javier Mascherano's Argentina, who have looked very solid indeed with two wins out of two, including a Messi hat-trick in the 5-0 rout of Panama.
That is already enough to ensure a place in the last eight for the 'albiceleste', and a draw with Bolivia in their final group game tonight (CenturyLink Field, Seattle at EDT 10.00pm) would secure top spot and a game against Venezuela at Foxborough on June 18.
As long as they can avoid defeat to Panama in the game immediately before (Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelphia at 8.00pm EDT), then Claudio Bravo and Chile will also progress from Group D.
Unless they can oust Argentina from top spot, which is looking somewhat unlikely, a qualified Chile would face a tricky quarter-final against a Mexico side that is going to enjoy so much support at the Levi's Stadium, Santa Clara that it will effectively be a home fixture for them.

At this point, the question isn't whether Julia Louis-Dreyfus will score her fifth consecutive nomination for her role as President Selina Meyer on the HBO comedy "Veep," but whether her winning streak will end. The actress has watched her character go from the titular vice president to leader of the free world, collecting a string of statues along the way. While Candice Bergen managed to score five wins for "Murphy Brown," even she didn't do it in a row.
But there are some new faces poised to take the prize this year, from Golden Globe winner Rachel Bloom ("Crazy Ex-Girlfriend") to Amy Schumer ("Inside Amy Schumer"), who is on a hot streak herself. In addition, many actresses who have never scored a nom are coming off great second seasons, including Ellie Kemper ("Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"), Gina Rodriguez ("Jane the Virgin"), Tracee Ellis Ross ("Black-ish") and Constance Wu ("Fresh Off the Boat. »

Are Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair dreaming again? The Property Brothers, your favorite Labrador twins from Hgtv have made a country music video for their song "Hold On." Aiming squarely for the jugular of the American mom (and John Mulaney), Drew and Jonathan Scott look as though they were lifted directly from a Nicholas Sparks movie. They are each sporting a light five o'clock dust of scruff on their faces, as they sing over a sequence of two families coming home, which is an excellent reminder that they can renovate yours.

USA's Playing House is returning to USA for its third season, and Jessica St. Clair and Lennon Parham are thrilled, probably! We don't know firsthand, but we can imagine they're thrilled. If we could, we'd get a dollhouse with two lady dolls and one baby doll and make them all jump up and down and say, "We're getting a third season and we're really thrilled!" The show was able to double its audience from season one to season two by introducing a new distribution model, allowing viewers to watch episodes on video-on-demand before they aired on USA, a dream for any superfan. That model will continue for season three, the season everyone is thrilled about, according to our dollhouse. »

"Playing House" has been renewed for a third season.
The announcement was made Thursday at Television Critics Association in Pasadena, Calif., where the series' stars Lennon Parham and Jessica St. Clair made a surprise appearance at the bi-annual press tour.
Interrupting USA Network president Chris McCumber at TCA in a funny, unexpected skit, Parham and St. Clair bombarded their boss, asking about a renewal, saying, "It just would be such a shame because the show ended up on multiple lists for 2015." The ladies then ensued to scream with happiness when McCumber announced the pickup.
Hailing from Universal Cable Productions, the series was created by Parham and St. Claire, whose real -life friendship inspired the fan-favorite show.
Though the comedy has an avidly passionate following, "Playing House" struggled to gain traction last summer in its second season. Its eight episodes on Tuesday nights averaged about 600,000 viewers, including 350,000 in the 18-49 demo, »

First commercial products hoped to be available within months, and an industrial iPS cell bank generated by 2015.[juggle33-Fotolia.com]
The Cellectis subsidiary Ectycell and French financial institution Caisse des Depots will each plow €6 million (about $8.5 million) into a program for the industrial development of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The investment by Caisse des Depot will give the firm a 25% stake in Ectycell, with the remainder continuing to be held by Cellectis.
Ectycell says the aim is to make the first products commercially available within months. The project will be supported by Oseo, the French government-backed agency dedicated to providing assistance and financial support to national SMEs and VSEs.
The Cellectis subsidiary was established in 2009 specifically to develop an industrial platform for generating iPSCs. The firm sublicenses relevant iPSC cell technology from Cellectis, including iPS technology originally licensed by the latter from Academia in Japan. "The capital increase will speed up the development of innovative industrial tools derived from iPS cells, notes David Sourdive, Ectycell CEO. "The programs that have been launched should lead ot the establishment of a world-leading industrial iPS cell bank in terms of volume and diversity by 2015."

The Government has rights in this invention pursuant to Contract No. NSF/RANN AER 74-02094 and IPA-0010 awarded by the National Science Foundation and pursuant to Contract No. F 19628-76C-0002 awarded by the Advanced Research Projects Agency, Department of the Air Force.
This invention relates to novel structures and compositions that provide fast alkali-metal-ion transport.
Prior to the present invention, β and β"-alumina have been the solids with fastest sodium-ion transport; they have stimulated interest in their use as solid electrolytes for cells and thermoelectric generators as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,475,223. The best β"-alumina compositions have resistivities for sodium-ion transport at 300� C. of about 4 ohm-cm and an activation energy for the mobility of about 0.16eV. Unfortunately, the volatility of soda together with the refractory nature of aluminum oxide has rendered production of ceramic membranes therefrom expensive. Furthermore, β- and β"-alumina are layer compounds in which the sodium ions are constrained to move in only two dimensions so that the confinement of sodium ions to widely separated layers sharply reduces the fraction of the membrane volume that transports sodium ions. Furthermore, the structure of β- and β"-alumina promotes anistropic thermal expansion so that the life of thermally cycled membranes made therefrom is reduced significantly.
Prior attempts to produce other crystalline materials that promote fast alkali-metal-ion transport have not met with success in that the activation energy and/or the resistivity have been too high for practical use. Thus, the class of crystalline aluminosilicate known as zeolites have been proposed because of their three-dimensional interstitial space but have been found not to promote fast alkali-metal-ion transport. In addition, the class of crystalline structures known as defect pyrochlores have to date been characterized by resistivities and activation energies too high to permit their practical use for fast alkali-metal-ion transport.
It would be highly desirable to provide crystalline compositions having rigid networks (or skeletons) with a three-dimensional interstitial space that promotes fast alkali-metal-ion transport. Furthermore, it would be desirable to provide such compositions that are also mechanically and chemically stable to the environments of use, such as cells utilizing liquid alkali metal and a reducing electrode or thermoelectric generators utilizing gaseous alkali metal.
The present invention is based upon the discovery that crystalline structures can be formed having rigid networks of corner-linked octahedra and tetrahedra or corner-linked tetrahedra that promote fast alkali-metal-ion transport in three dimensions and that exhibit good mechanical and chemical stability even in a molten alkali metal environment. These structures have a resistivity of less than about 100 ohm-cm. at the temperature where they are utilized. The class of crystalline compositions is represented by the formulae:
An X2 (ZO4)3 Formula I
am (Z2 'O4) Formula II
wherein A is potassium, sodium or lithium; Z is a tetrahedrally coordinated cation or mixtures thereof not reducable by molten alkali metal; X is an octahedrally coordinated cation or mixtures thereof not reducable by molten alkali metal; n is a number greater than 1 and less than 4; m is a number from 1 up to 2 and Z comprises at least 2 Z cations. The compositions are characterized by a three-dimensional rigid structure of open networks formed from corner-shared oxygen tetrahedra or tetrahedra and octahedra through which the A+ ion can move in three dimensions. In addition, the minimum cross-sectional diameter of the interstitial space is about twice the sum of the atomic diameter of the anion and the mobile cation. Thus, the minimum cross-section diameter is about 5.4 A for potassium ions, 4.8 A for sodium ions and about 4.2 A for lithium ions and usually about 5.3 to 5.6 A for potassium, 4.8 to 5.4 A for sodium and 4.2 to 5.0 A for lithium respectively. The compositions of this invention are also characterized by having the lattice sites of the network interstitial space only partially occupied with alkali-metal ions to permit alkali-metal-ion transport within the crystal structure. If these sites were fully occupied by the alkali-metal ion, there would be little or no alkali-metal transfer within the crystal structure. In addition, if the sites available to the alkali-metal ions are crystallographically inequivalent, the difference between the respective site-occupancy energies should be small and/or the number of mobile ions should be large enough to insure some occupancy of all types of sites available to them in order to minimize the activation energy of the mobility.
The compositions of this invention are useful as solid electrolytes in cells utilizing liquid alkali metals as a negative electrode wherein the composition comprises a membrane between the liquid metal and a positive electrode, such as liquid polysulfide impregnated with an electron conductor like carbon felt as in the NaS battery. The compositions also can be utilized as a solid electrolyte in a thermoelectric generator employing a differential pressure of alkali-metal ions maintained across the membrane formed of the composition. In addition, a membrane of these compositions can be utilized to extract selectively alkali-metal ions from alkali-metal salts such as KCl, NaCl or LiCl.
In the formulae, An X2 (ZO4)3 and Am (Z'2 O4), representative suitable cations for X are Ta5+, Zr4+, Hf4+, In3+, Ga3+, Al3+, Ca2+, Mg2+ or the like and mixtures thereof. Representative suitable cations for Z and Z' are Li+, Mg2+, Al3+, Si4+, P5+, S6+ or mixtures thereof. Representative suitable crystalline compounds of this invention are:
Na1+x Zr2 Six P3-x O12 Formula III
wherein x is a number greater than 0 and less than 3 to form compounds such as Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12 ;
k2-2x Mg1-x Si1+x O4 Formula IV
wherein x is a number greater than 0 up to 0.5 such as K1.9 Mg0.95 Si1.05 O4. In these compounds, the sum of the number of X--O and Z--O bonds per anion is 2 in order to obtain the desired three-dimensional lattice structure. In addition, polarization of the O2- ion charge density away from the A+ cation is employed to increase the A+ ion mobility. This is accomplished by forming strongly covalent π and σ X--O and Z--O bonds within the rigid network. For example, strongly covalent complexes such as SO4 2-, PO4 3- or SiO4 4- or combinations thereof together with a transition-metal C cation having an empty d shell provides strong π and σ bonding in the network. Since it is desirable that the crystalline structure be chemically stable against molten alkali metals, it is preferred to utilize Zr4+, Hf4+ and/or Ta5+ as the transition-metal X ion in the structure. Although transition-metal X cations have been employed, nontransition-metal C ions are possible.
In contrast to the compositions of this invention, the known compound NaZr2 (PO4)3 has all of the sodium ions at only one of the crystalographically inequivalent positions available to the sodium ion and therefore has poor sodium-ion conductivity. The known compound Na4 Zr2 (SiO4)3 has all the available sodium sites occupied, and it too has poor sodium-ion conductivity.
The compositions of this invention are prepared by reacting the constituent reactants either in the solid or liquid state. The reactants utilized comprise the oxides and/or salts of the cations that are reducible to the oxides under the reaction conditions of temperature and pressure employed. In one representative procedure, the starting materials in particulate solid form are heated to a sintering temperature for a period of time to assure conversion to a product wherein the anions and the cations are bonded to oxygen atoms to form the tetrahedral or tetrahedral-octahedral crystalline structure. For example, the solid mixture is heated stepwise to decompose the least thermally stable reactant such as NH4 H2 PO4 at about 170� C. and then heating at an elevated temperature of about 900� C. to decompose the Na2 CO3 and then at a highly elevated temperature of about 1200� C. to 1600� C. to transform the reactants, which form the desired crystalline structure. The period of heating depends upon the amount of reactants with a representative time period being between about 4 hours and 24 hours. When forming a ceramic structure from the compositions of this invention, a flux material can be added to the reactants and reacted therewith by any means well-known in the art.
The following examples illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the same.
This example illustrates the formation of the compound with the chemical formula Na1+x Zr2 Six P3-x O12, wherein x ranges from 0.4 to 2.8.
Mixtures of 1/2(1+x) Na2 CO3, 2ZrO2, xSiO2 and (3-x) NH4 H2 PO4 wherein 0.4≦x≦2.8 were heated to 170� C. for about 4 hours to decompose NH4 H2 PO4, then at 900� C. for about 4 hours to decompose Na2 CO3, and then at 1200� C. for about 8 hours. The heated mixtures were then allowed to cool to room temperature. The compounds Na1+x Zr2 Six P3-x O12, 0≦x≦3, all had rhombohedral R3c structures, except in the range 1.8≦x≦2.2 where a distortion to the monoclinic C2/c space group is found at room temperature. The structures of NaZr2 P3 O12 and Na4 Zr2 Si3 O12 were known prior to this invention.
In the Zr2 Six P3-x O12.sup.(1+x)- skeleton, a Zr4+ octahedron shares its six corners with tetrahedra, and each tetrahedon shares its four corners with octahedra. Thus, each anion bonds strongly to a tetrahedral and an octahedral cation of the skeleton. In the rhombohedral phase, two M+ ion sites (for the Na+) are distinguishable in the interstitial space: close-packed-hexagonal M2 layers in the basal plane connected by one-third as many M1 sites between the M2 layers. Thus, the interstitial space is connected in three dimensions, and the anion "bottleneck" (minimum cross section of interstitial space of skeleton) between the M1 and M2 sites consists of a puckered hexagonal ring having as its six sides alternately tetrahedral-site and octahedral-site edges of the skeleton. The monoclinic distortion distinguishes two M2 sites: 3M2 →M2 +2M3. The jump distances for monoclinic Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12 lie in the range 3.51-3.8A.
Transport measurements were made on dense (in excess of 85% theoretical) polycrystalline ceramic disks approximately one-half inch in diameter and 0.05 to 0.1 inch thick. Ionic conductivity was measured with a ac vector-impedance meter (5 Hz to 500 kHz). Gold or platinum blocking electrodes, which permit electron transport but restrict ionic transport to a displacement current, were used to determine the electronic component. Nonblocking electrodes, consisting of a coating of colloidal graphite or both sides of the sample, permit Na+ -ion discharge from the electrolyte so that polarization at higher frequencies generally remains trivial to frequencies as low as 500 Hz. For comparison purposes, some dc and low-frequency ac measurements were made with NaNO3 on both sides of the specimen.
In order to obtain dense ceramic disks of compositions in the system Na1+x Zr2 P3-x Six O12, appropriate mixtures of Na2 CO3, ZrO2, SiO2 and NH4 H2 PO4 were heated for 4 hours at 170� C. (to decompose the NH4 H2 PO4) and calcined at 900� C. for 16 hours. The product was cold-pressed at 80,000 psi after the addition of polyethylene glycol as a binder. The cold-pressed pellets were fired for 6 to 16 hours at temperatures of 1200� to 1400� C. The firing temperature of Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12, for example, was 1250� C., since at 1275� C. there was appreciable decomposition of the specimen. Densities as high as 94% were obtained by this method. Transport measurements with blocking electrodes indicated a negligible electronic contribution, and prolonged immersion in molten sodium showed chemical stability in the environment. Table I lists the resistivities at 300� C. for Na+ -ion transport as obtained with graphite electrodes at 1 kHz on ceramic disks more than 85% theoretical density. The activation energy for Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12 was found to be εa =0.29 eV.
The compound NaZr2 P3 O12 has all the M1 sites occupied by Na+ ions while none of the M2 sites are occupied by Na+ ions. Since the M1 and M2 sites are not energetically equivalent, the resistivity of this compound is very high. Substitution of Si for P is charge compensated by the introduction of Na+ ions on M2 sites, which are linked to one another via M1 sites. Therefore, so long as the M1 sites remain occupied, Na+ ion conductivity requires a correlated ionic motion: Na2 + + Na1 + + □2 → □2 + Na1 + + Na2 +, where the subscripts refer to sites M1 and M2 and the □ represents an empty site. The fact that the lowest values of ρ300 � C. occur where the rhombohedral axis of cr and cell volume are maximum is consistent with a maximum cross-section diameter for a minimum activation energy of the mobility. The fact that the crystal cell volume reaches a maximum with increasing x suggest that the electrostatic forces between Na+ ions at adjacent M1 and M2 sites may actually displace Na+ ions toward bottleneck positions between the M1 and M2 sites, thus lowering the activation energy of the mobility for the correlated ionic motion.
At 300� C., the transport properties of Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12 are clearly equivalent to those of β"-alumina; they are superior at temperatures greater than 300� C., but inferior at temperatures less than 300� C. A much-improved preexponential factor is consistent with the three-dimensional character of the Na+ -ion transport in Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12. The β"-alumina has an activation energy less than 0.1 eV smaller than that of Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12.
The system, Na1+x Zr2 Six P3-x O12, appears to be easier to fabricate into dense ceramics than β"-alumina. We have made both open and closed-ended tubes of Na3 Zr2 Si2 PO12 at 90% theoretical density with preliminary extrusion/isostatic-pressing techniques.
The system, Na1+x Zr2 Six P3-x O12 is only one representative of a class of compounds that can be stabilized with this basic structure. Ion exchange with Li+ and K+ ions has been successfully accomplished. Other ions can replace the octahedral Zr4+ ions and the tetrahedral Si4+ and P5+ ions.
