Lithium Titanate Sputtering Targets and Applications

Lithium titanate is a compound containing lithium and titanium. Lithium titanate is an off-white powder at room temperature and has the chemical formula Li2TiO3.
Lithium titanate sputtering target is used as an additive in porcelain enamels and ceramic insulating bodies based on titanates. Lithium titanate is frequently utilized as a flux due to its good stability. In recent years, along with other Lithium ceramics are tried in nuclear fusion applications. Lithium titanate is also the anode component of the fast recharging lithium-titanate battery.
Now let's see how lithium titanate sputtering targets can be used as anode material for high-rate lithium-ion batteries.
Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are attractive energy storage systems due to having high energy and power storage density, and long cycle life. In the last few decades, lithium-ion batteries have also been considered as appealing alternatives for use in clean energy systems, such as electric and hybrid electric vehicles.
Recently, lithium titanate has attracted attention in lithium-ion batteries anode material research. One of the reasons of it, lithium titanate has a high operating potential which is safely away from the reduction potentials of conventional electrolytes and lithium electroplating potential and the other reason is that lithium titanate faces almost no volume expansion during cycling, which increases its cyclic stability and Li+ ion mobility. Also lithium titanate provides a solid–electrolyte interface (SEI) free electrode surface and this property makes it more resistant to high-power applications, such as electric vehicles.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread th...

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product. Figure: Single Walled Carbon Nanotube (SWCNT) It ha...
