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 use of Fluidized Bed Chemical Vapor Deposition to coat particles or fibers is inherently slow and capital intensive, as it requires constant modifications to the equipment to account for changes in the characteristics of the substrates to be coated.
Real-time tracking and monitoring of radioactive/nuclear materials during transportation is a critical need to ensure safety and security. Current technologies rely on simple tagging, using sensors attached to transport containers, but they have limitations.
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.
This technology creates a light and metalless current collector for battery application. Cathodes coated on this new current collector demonstrated similar contact resistance, lower charge transfer resistance and similar or high rate performance.
Current fuel used in nuclear light water reactors that generate energy for the grid use a solid form of uranium that is heated and processed to form pellets.
