  1. 11. The Challenge of Probing Lithium Insertion Mechanisms in Cathode Materials

    Författare :Jonas Höwing; Torbjörn Gustafsson; Christian Masquelier; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Inorganic chemistry; Li-ion battery; cathode materials; insertion mechanism; single-crystal X-ray diffraction; vanadium oxide; lithium iron phosphate; Oorganisk kemi; Inorganic chemistry; Oorganisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : The Li-ion battery has, from its commercialisation in the early 1990's, now become the most widely used power source for portable low-power electronics: laptops, cellular phones and MP3-players are a few examples. To further develop existing and find new electrode materials for these batteries, it is vital to understand the lithium insertion/extraction mechanisms taking place during battery operation. LÄS MER

  2. 12. Thin-Film Electrocatalysts for Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells - Activity, Durability and Proton Conduction

    Författare :Björn Wickman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Nafion; thin film evaporation; PEMFC; platinum; titanium oxide; cathode; fuel cell; oxygen reduction reaction; electrocatalyst; proton conduction; model systems;

    Sammanfattning : The polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a potential technology for future energy conversion in sustainable energy systems. By using hydrogen from renewable energy sources and oxygen from the air, the fuel cell produces electricity with water as the only exhaust. LÄS MER

  3. 13. Nanostructured Catalysts and Electrode Materials for PEM Fuel Cells

    Författare :Kjell Wikander; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PEMFC; mesoporous; alkylthiol; alkylamine; carbon; microemulsion; Fuel cell; surfactants; nanoparticles; electron microscopy; Pt; nanocasting; silica; cathode; phase transfer method; oxygen reduction;

    Sammanfattning : The Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a promising energy converting technology for powering automotives and electrical equipment using hydrogen gas as fuel and producing water as the only exhaust. The active carbon-supported platinum catalyst present in the electrodes limits the maximum power generation in state-of-the-art PEMFCs due to platinum’s poor activity for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) taking place at the cathode.

    Nyckelord :Inorganic chemistry; Li-ion battery; cathode material; lithium iron phosphate; lithium iron silicate; X-ray powder diffraction; Mössbauer spectroscopy; photoelectron spectroscopy; Oorganisk kemi;

    Sammanfattning : There are today clear indications that the Li-ion battery of the type currently used worldwide in mobile-phones and lap-tops is also destined to soon become the battery of choice in more energy-demanding concepts such as electric and electric hybrid vehicles (EVs and EHVs). Since the currently used cathode materials (typically of the Li(Ni,Co)O2-type) are too expensive in large-scale applications, these new batteries will have to exploit some much cheaper transition-metal.
