    Sammanfattning : Currently, yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is still the dominant electrolyte material in commercial SOFC applications. But it has severe drawbacks due to its high operating temperatures. In present work, two electrolyte materials: Hf0.69Y0. LÄS MER

  2. 17. The Rôle of Side-Chains in Polymer Electrolytes for Batteries and Fuel Cells

    Författare :Jaanus Karo; Hans Siegbahn; Daniel Brandell; Patrik Johansson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; molecular dynamics; polymer electrolytes; side-chains; Li-ion batteries; proton exchange membrane fuel cell PEMFC ; PFSA membrane; Other chemistry; Övrig kemi; Atomic and molecular physics; Atom- och molekylfysik; Materialvetenskap; Materials Science;

    Sammanfattning : The subject of this thesis relates to the design of new polymer electrolytes for battery and fuel cell applications. Classical Molecular Dynamics (MD) modelling studies are reported of the nano-structure and the local structure and dynamics for two types of polymer electrolyte host: poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) for lithium batteries and perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) for polymer-based fuel cells.

  3. 18. Acceptor-doped barium zirconate: Oxidation, hydration and space-charge formation

    Författare :Anders Lindman; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; BaZrO3; space charge; point defects; oxidation; GW; hydration; density functional theory; grain boundaries; interatomic potential; perovskites;

    Sammanfattning : The current production and use of fossil fuels is not sustainable and new technologies are needed to become more independent of these fuels.The hydrogen economy, with the fuel cell as an efficient converter of chemical to electrical energy, is a desirable alternative.For this to become a reality, new materials with tailored properties are required.

  4. 19. Molecular Interactions Studied by Electrophoretic and Diffusion NMR

    Författare :Fredrik Hallberg; Peter Stilbs; István Furó; Gareth Morris; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Physical chemistry; NMR; electrophoretic NMR; Ion pairing; complexation; association; diffusion; pulsed field gradient; Nafion; Spectroscopy; Spektroskopi;

    Sammanfattning : Even though electrophoretic NMR (eNMR) experiments may provide unique chemical information and have been performed for three decades, the technique is still rarely applied, mainly because several experimental sources of artifacts have to be controlled to achieve accurate results. In this thesis, new experimental setups and protocols for accurate and precise eNMR experiments are presented. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Atomistic simulation techniques for modelling inorganic/organic interface and flotation collector design

    Författare :Tarun Kundu; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mineralteknik; Mineral Processing;

    Sammanfattning : The choice of collector molecules in flotation process of mineral separation is invariably determined by tedious trial and error experimentation with inherent mounting expenditure. Here, we seek the help of atomistic simulation techniques, to help and judge the suitable collector molecule for selective mineral separation in flotation process, before actually conducting the experiment.
