ORNL has developed a new hydrothermal synthesis route to generate high quality battery cathode precursors. The new route offers excellent compositional control, homogenous spherical morphologies, and an ammonia-free co-precipitation process.
Sodium-ion batteries are a promising candidate to replace lithium-ion batteries for large-scale energy storage system because of their cost and safety benefits.
Knowing the state of charge of lithium-ion batteries, used to power applications from electric vehicles to medical diagnostic equipment, is critical for long-term battery operation.
The proposed solid electrolyte can solve the problem of manufacturing solid electrolyte when heating and densifying the solid electrolyte powder. The material can avoid also the use of solid electrolyte additive with cathode to prepare a catholyte.
The ID provides a solution approach for faster chemical processing and carbon functional grading from SiC to MC to provide a tougher carbon and CMC structure.
The solution proposed here is a modified carbon-based tile face that is mechanically combined with an insulative backing. The tile face is based on a material architecture to minimize weight and thermal conductivity while maximizing thermal stability.
Free-standing, thin films were fabricated with a binder resulting in nearly an order of magnitude thickness decrease while increasing porosity and activation energy. These effects of such diminished significantly. Free-standing films could be fabricated with a binder.
