Efficient thermal management in polymers is essential for developing lightweight, high-strength materials with multifunctional capabilities.
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,
The disclosure is directed to optimized fiber geometries for use in carbon fiber reinforced polymers with increased compressive strength per unit cost. The disclosed fiber geometries reduce the material processing costs as well as increase the compressive strength.
A novel and cost-effective process for the activation of carbon fibers was established.

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.
V-Cr-Ti alloys have been proposed as candidate structural materials in fusion reactor blanket concepts with operation temperatures greater than that for reduced activation ferritic martensitic steels (RAFMs).
A novel method that prevents detachment of an optical fiber from a metal/alloy tube and allows strain measurement up to higher temperatures, about 800 C has been developed. Standard commercial adhesives typically only survive up to about 400 C.
Fabrication methods are needed that are easily scalable, will enable facile manufacturing of SSEs that are < 50 µm thick to attain high energy density, and also exhibit good stability at the interface of the anode. Specifically, Wu et al.
We developed and incorporated two innovative mPET/Cu and mPET/Al foils as current collectors in LIBs to enhance cell energy density under XFC conditions.
