Book Solid State Batteries  Materials Design and Optimization

Download or read book Solid State Batteries Materials Design and Optimization written by Christian Julien and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-27 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of solid state ionics is multidisciplinary in nature. Chemists, physicists, electrochimists, and engineers all are involved in the research and development of materials, techniques, and theoretical approaches. This science is one of the great triumphs of the second part of the 20th century. For nearly a century, development of materials for solid-state ionic technology has been restricted. During the last two decades there have been remarkable advances: more materials were discovered, modem technologies were used for characterization and optimization of ionic conduction in solids, trial and error approaches were deserted for defined predictions. During the same period fundamental theories for ion conduction in solids appeared. The large explosion of solid-state ionic material science may be considered to be due to two other influences. The first aspect is related to economy and connected with energy production, storage, and utilization. There are basic problems in industrialized countries from the economical, environmental, political, and technological points of view. The possibility of storing a large amount of utilizable energy in a comparatively small volume would make a number of non-conventional intermittent energy sources of practical convenience and cost. The second aspect is related to huge increase in international relationships between researchers and exchanges of results make considerable progress between scientists; one find many institutes joined in common search programs such as the material science networks organized by EEC in the European countries.

Book Rechargeable Battery Electrolytes

Download or read book Rechargeable Battery Electrolytes written by Jianmin Ma and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rechargeable batteries are one of the crucial ways we are going to solve the sustainable energy crisis. Lithium-ion batteries have been commercialised and are heavily relied upon, however, the scarcity of lithium resources increases the production cost and hinders further application. Additionally, the toxic and flammable electrolyte brings many potential safety hazards including environmental pollution. Looking for low-cost, safe, and environmentally friendly alternatives to LIBs has become a valuable research direction. The modification of batteries is focused on the anode, the cathode and electrolyte. Globally, researchers have moved onto new rechargeable batteries based on multivalent metal ions which have been extensively studied, including K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+. However, the electrolyte is a very important component of a battery as its physical and chemical properties directly affect the electrochemical performance and energy storage mechanism. Finding and selecting an appropriate electrolyte system is a crucial factor that must be taken into account to make these post-lithium-ion batteries commercially viable. Until now, it has been challenging to develop a suitable electrolyte with a wide electrochemical stability window and stable anode interface. This book covers all the major ion-battery groups and their electrolytes, examining their performance and suitability in different solvents: aqueous, non-aqueous, solid gel and polymer. It is suitable for all levels of students and researchers who want to understand the fundamentals and future challenges of developing electrolytes.

Book Design of Advanced Polymer Electrolyte for High Performance Lithium and Sodium Batteries

Download or read book Design of Advanced Polymer Electrolyte for High Performance Lithium and Sodium Batteries written by Wenfeng Liang and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The energy density of lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is limited by the capacities of the electrode materials. Lithium metal is a promising anode material for future LIBs due to its high theoretical specific capacity (3,860 mAh/g) and low redox potential (-3.04 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode). However, lithium plating in liquid electrolyte will form Li dendritic structure and subsequently penetrate the porous polymeric separator, resulting in battery short circuiting. A straightforward method to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites is to replace the liquid phase electrolyte with a solid-state one. Among different solid-state electrolyte candidates, solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) is advantageous due to its flexible nature and low-cost raw material. However, SPE typically exhibits low ionic conductivity compared to its liquid electrolyte counterpart, which thus could result in restricted use in battery applications. In this work, a rational approach to achieve highly ionic conductive and electrochemically stable SPEs will be discussed. A phase-diagram was firstly mapped out to provide guidance in designing a composite electrolyte with high ionic conductivity at room temperature. The thermal and electrochemical stability of SPE were then characterized. A dual-salt base electrolyte with lithium bis(oxalate)borate (LiBOB) and bis(trifluoromethanesulphonyl)imide (LiTFSI) exhibited excellent electrochemical stability from the passivation layer formed between the electrode/electrolyte interface. In addition, SPEs based on crosslinked fluoropolymer and poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) were investigated. Those properties of SPE enable the fabrication of solid-state batteries with lithium metal as an anode. Lithium plating/striping experiments and battery tests were conducted, and the results indicated that the dual-salt SPE could be a promising candidate electrolyte for next generation solid-state rechargeable battery. Sodium ion batteries display good performance yet with limited protection for the inevitable sodium dendrite growth if coupled with metallic sodium electrode, which is an adverse phenomenon that would eventually result in the deterioration of the battery. SPEs with superior ionic conductivity and outstanding electrochemical stability are promising for the all solid-state sodium batteries in grid-storage applications. In this study, a transparent free-standing SPE membrane comprising sodium perchlorate (NaClO4), PEGDA and plastic crystal molecules was fabricated. This sodium based SPE exhibits high sodium-ion conductive property (over 0.925 mS/cm at 30 oC) while being electrochemically stable. A rational approach has also been designed and achieved by using the phase diagram. The NaClO4-based SPE can not only exhibit excellent electrochemical stability with metallic sodium electrode, but also provide remarkable current rate and long-term cycling performance for the solid-state sodium metal batteries (SMB).
