This invention utilizes a custom-synthesized vinyl trifluoromethanesulfonimide (VTFSI) salt and an alcohol containing small molecule or polymer for the synthesis of novel single-ion conducting polymer electrolytes for the use in Li-ion and beyond Li-ion batteries, fuel cells,

CO2 capture by mineral looping, either using calcium or magnesium precursors requires that the materials be calcined after CO2 is captured from the atmosphere. This separates the CO2 for later sequestration and returned the starting material to its original state.

In additive manufacturing, choice of process parameters for a given material and geometry can result in porosities in the build volume, which can result in scrap.

The invention presented here addresses key challenges associated with counterfeit refrigerants by ensuring safety, maintaining system performance, supporting environmental compliance, and mitigating health and legal risks.

A pressure burst feature has been designed and demonstrated for relieving potentially hazardous excess pressure within irradiation capsules used in the ORNL High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR).

This manufacturing method uses multifunctional materials distributed volumetrically to generate a stiffness-based architecture, where continuous surfaces can be created from flat, rapidly produced geometries.

This invention aims to develop a new feature for a heat pump water heater having a forced flow condenser, coupled with a mixing valve, and a new feature to maximize the first hour rating and provide quick response to hot water demand, comparable to a typical gas water heater.&

This is a novel approach to enhance the performance and durability of all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs) by focusing on two primary components: the Si anode and the thin electrolyte integration.

Develop an innovative refrigerator having a thermoelectric cooler cascaded with a regular refrigerator compression system. the TE cooler dedicatedly controls the temperature in a freezer compartment.

The lack of real-time insights into how materials evolve during laser powder bed fusion has limited the adoption by inhibiting part qualification.  The developed approach provides key data needed to fabricate born qualified parts.
