Nickel Foam for Battery Cathode Substrate

As the importance of lithium ion batteries increases, the different components are started to be used in them. One of the important materials that is in lithium ion batteries is current collectors. Current collectors are important because they have a role in electrochemical energy storage.
The important thing for a current collector is to keep their internal resistance low in order to improve the electrochemical properties of this kind of electrochemical energy storage systems. Also a good current collector must have high conductivity, chemical stability during electrolyte and the potential window and mechanical strength. According to the studies made in this field it has been proved that porous materials which can be used as current corrector give good results in lithium ion batteries.
One of the materials that can be used as current collector in lithium ion battery systems is nickel foam. Nickel Foam for Battery Cathode Substrate has low density and porous structure with typically 75–95% of the volume consisting of void spaces, which means that is a selectable material as current collector. Nickel foam can be used in many various functions in energy absorption and rechargeable battery applications. According to the studies where nickel foam used states that nickel foam is a good current collector in alkaline supercapacitors as long as we subtract the contribution from the nickel foam to get correct specific capacitances of the active material.
So we can say that nickel foam is a good material to be used as a current collector in lithium ion batteries with the properties of high conductivity and 3D interconnected structure.

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...
