In the last decade new materials appeared that are candidates to be used as an electrolyte in a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell, SOFC. Some materials show high ionic conductivity but lack in important properties, such as mechanical stability or chemical compatibility with other materials …
The AsF6- anion, in the crystalline polymer electrolyte PEO6:LiAsF6, was replaced with the larger N(SO2CF3)2- anion. This produced an increase in the room temperature ionic conductivity of 1.5 orders of magnitude. It is believed that the enhancement is the result of the disrupti…
Lithium-ion batteries: solid-electrolyte interphase
"This book discusses the various basic monitoring techniques available for emergency patients. The book elaborates on and explains monitoring techniques that can be easily performed in basic ER clinics and primary care clinics"--
Advances in electrochemical devices such as batteries, fuel cells, and water-splitting membranes are making global transition towards clean and renewable energy more possible than ever. Foundational to (electro)chemical and catalytic transformations in these devices are a stable…
Dynamic windows enable electronic control of light and heat flow and demonstrate potential for increased energy efficiency in buildings and improved well-being for the people inside them. Despite four decades of research and development, the traditional approaches to dynamic win…
Recently, scientific research studies focus on renewable energy solutions as well as energy efficiency in managing the upcoming climate crisis which manifests itself in the form of global warming. However, the chaotic nature of renewable energy sources caused energy storage tech…
Renewable energy is being increasingly deployed at both small and large scales. At large scale, the intermittent nature of renewable energy sources prohibits a full integration with the current power grid. Among others, redox flow battery is a promising energy storage technology…
