Lithium Manganese Oxide ( LiMn2O4 ) Powder for Li-ion Battery Cathode Applications

One of the components that can be used as cathode materials in lithium ion batteries is lithium manganese oxide. Lithium Manganese Oxide ( LiMn2O4 ) Powder for Li-ion Battery Cathode Application provide a low cost and it is an environmental friendly cathode material.
In lithium ion batteries manganese is one of the most common transition metals used because of having multiple oxidation states, which leads the possibility to intercalate more than one lithium atom, and obtaining a wide potential range between depending on the crystal structure and the chemical composition. Being not toxic and highly available makes manganese a good material can be used in lithium ion batteries.
Manganese may have oxidation states of 2+, 3+ and 4+. With different oxidation states of manganese it is possible to obtain different geometries that can be used in lithium ion batteries. Depending on the geometry around the central metal ion and its oxidation state, the manganese gives the possibility to exploit a higher number of redox couples which are not possible to be exploited with other transition metal elements. This situation is extremely important for the design of new materials for Li-ion batteries.
But manganese-based cathode materials may have a problem related to their stability because of Mn2+ dissolution in the electrolyte and the Jahn-Teller effect of the Mn3+ ion which limits their cycle life. Of course scientist have worked on this problem and they have found some solutions. These solution include doping or surface coating. Another aspect for this situation is to develop composite electrodes using structurally integrated layered Li2MnO3 and spinel LiMn2O4. The combination of these two structures provides increased structural stability during electrochemical cycling while achieving higher capacity and rate-capability.

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...
