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,
PET is used in many commercial products, but only a fraction is mechanically recycled, and even less is chemically recycled.
Developed a novel energy efficient, cost-effective, environmentally friendly process for separation of lithium from end-of-life lithium-ion batteries.
This work presents a novel method for upcycling polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste into sustainable vitrimer materials. By combining bio-based crosslinkers with our PET-based macromonomer, we developed dynamically bonded plastics that are renewably sourced.
Ruthenium is recovered from used nuclear fuel in an oxidizing environment by depositing the volatile RuO4 species onto a polymeric substrate.
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.
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.&
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.
This invention focuses on improving the ceramic yield of preceramic polymers by tuning the crosslinking process that occurs during vat photopolymerization (VP).
