Mesocarbon Microbeads (MCMB) Graphite Micron Powder for Lithium Ion Battery

Lithium ion batteries has a lot of interest especially in recent years due to their superior properties like high energy densities, long cycle lives, and being friendly with environment. Lithium ion batteries are important power sources for electronic products, like cellular phones and laptop computers.
In lithium ion batteries carbon materials are generally used as anode materials because of their small surface change, structural stability during cycling and high energy density.
One of the carbon materials that is used in lithium ion batteries as anode material is mesocarbon microbeads. Mesocarbon Microbeads (MCMB) Graphite Micron Powder for Lithium Ion Battery are special kind of carbonaceous materials. Mesocarbon microbeads generally have spherical shape with the diameter of 1-50 µm and when mesocarbon microbeads are used as anode materials in lithium ion batteries, they can provide a reversible capacity of 300-340mAh/g and excellent cyclability which is a big advantage for the applications where high capacity is needed.
Another advantage of mesocarbon microbeads is that they can be in combination with silicon to have higher capacities and rechargeability. It is a fact that mesocarbon microbeads anode materials have the best cyclability among all the types of carbon anode materials. When we combine mesocarbon microbeads with silicon to obtain an anode material, we can obtain Silicon - mesocarbon microbeads composite material with high capacity and satisfactory rechargeability. So it is possible to extend the number of charging cycle of lithium ion battery by using silicon - mesocarbon microbeads composite anode material.

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...
