Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4 ) Micron Powder for Li-ion Battery Cathode Applications

The performance of lithium-ion batteries that we have started to use in electronics almost every day, depends on the properties of the materials that they are produced of. Generally the materials that are used for the production of lithium ion batteries are expensive to be produced and they offer limited energy storage possibility.
Thus, it is very important to develop new types of lithium ion batteries which should be simplified, efficient and environmentally friendly. For this purpose lithium iron phosphate which discovered in the late 1990s and is currently the most studied cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium iron phosphate is a desirable cathode material due to its outstanding features, like low cost, superior thermal stability, enhanced safety, high theoretical specific capacity and suitable charge/discharge voltage plateau. Since there is a strong P-O covalent bond in lithium iron phosphate, it is thermodynamically and dynamically stable even at temperature above 200°C.
To get the best result in terms of electronic conductivity and cycle life from lithium iron phosphate cathode material there are some options that can be applied. For example carbon coating of lithium iron phosphate cathode can be shown as the most efficient method found up to now to do this. The electrochemical properties of the final lithium iron phosphate - carbon composites are strongly dependent on the quality of the carbon coating – its amount, morphology, degree of graphitization, and the distribution on the surface. By the coating of carbon on lithium iron phosphate cathode, you can end up with a cathode material with superior properties.

Graphene Tyres and Graphene Brake Pads

Could Graphene Use Create A Distruptive Technology In Tyre Sector? Almost every day, we see new applications emerging from graphene. The fact is certain; graphene is a disruptive technology that holds huge potential for commercialization. Graphene has abilities to open new markets and even replace existing materials or material technologies. A brand new application of graphene came out which is producing graphene tyres and brake pads. https://www.canadacarbon.com/brake-linings-gasket... In 2016 GraphChina (Graphene Innovation Conference); Sentury and Huagao launched their first electrostatic conducting graphene tyre on September 22nd. 2-3 weeks before the conference Sentury and Huagao officially announced their cooperation on the product. During the press conference, Sentury’s engineers (which is branded with the Landsail moniker), revealed that the latest test data shows their graphene-enhanced tyre offers; 1.8 meters shorter stopping distances (6 % improvement on conv...

Characterization and potential uses of Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle

   Hydroxylapatite , also referred to as hydroxyapatite (HA), is a calcium apatite in its naturally occurring mineral form with the formula Ca5(PO4)3(OH). A fluorapatite or chlorapatite may be produced if the OH−ion is replaced by fluoride, chloride or carbonate. Hydroxylapatite crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal pattern. Pure hydroxylapatite powder is of white color. However, naturally occurring apatites can also have brown, yellow, or green hue, resembling the coloration of dental fluorosis. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN) , nanodots or nanocrystals are spherical or faceted high surface area oxide magnetic nanostructured particles. Nanoscale Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN) are normally 20-80 nanometers (nm) with specific surface area (SSA) in the 15 - 50 m2/g range but sometimes available with an average particle size of 100 nm range with a specific surface area of approximately 5 - 10 m2/g. Hydroxyapatite Nanopowder/Nanoparticle (HApN...
