Nickel Tabs For Lithium Ion Battery Applications

Lithium ion batteries becomes a very important technology for our daily life. They are widely used in mobile phones, laptops and electrical vehicles.
In current lithium-ion battery manufacturing for automotive, different sizes and shapes of cells are being manufactured. The difference between electronic devices like mobile phones or laptops, automotive battery packs consists of a large number of battery cells, sometimes several hundreds to meet desired power and capacity needs. As a result, a significant amount of joining such as welding is needed to deliver electricity in a battery pack.
It is not possible to say that it is easy to join all of these battery cells. Also when we think of the harsh environment of an automobile expose like vibration, severe temperature, and possible crash, all of these can affect the performance of these batteries.
The scientists shows a great effort to get better performance from lithium ion batteries in terms of cell material, design, safety, and performance. One of the topics that is studied on is welding process and battery tabs.
First, lithium-ion batteries use highly conductive materials such as aluminum and copper for electrodes and tabs but they are suitable for resistance welding due to their high thermal and electrical conductivities. Nowadays, nickel is the most commonly used materials for battery tab. Nickel alloys are known as electrically and thermally resistive and relatively easy to weld. A study on the parallel gap resistance welding of Ni-plated copper and Ni-plated steel showed that Nickel coating on a conductive material could help improve joint quality while keeping electrical resistance between the cells low.

Improving Dialysis Process with Graphene

Researchers from Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Departments of MIT recently showed that graphene is a powerful material candidate for use in the dialysis systems (such as hemodialysis machines in medical institutes for filtering human blood). In order to prepare graphene as a dialysis material, researchers used a procedure opposite to the general treatments that nanotechnology people use. Dialysis is a process of filtering different solutions such as human blood by a membrane in order to remove waste molecules, drugs, chemical residues from the solution. In some cases, the process can be used for purification of chemicals or isolation of different molecules for medical diagnosis. It is an essential process for scientists especially in the medical operations.

Graphene Oxide Dispersion

Graphene oxide refers to a mono-atomic layer material obtained when graphite crystals are oxidized. This is one of the graphene materials that are commercially available because of  its ability to dissolve in water  which makes the oxidation process suitable. In this article, we will talk about the  synthesis, the properties and some of the applications of graphene oxide dispersion in water . Seven Properties of Graphene Oxide Dispersion The properties of a material are defined through its structure, however, this material is very peculiar, since there is no unambiguous model of this material. Graphene Oxide dispersion offers remarkable physical, chemical and mechanical properties that give the opportunity to new applications. Graphene Oxide is amorphous , but, in general, graphene oxide can be described as a two-dimensional sheet containing honeycomb carbon atoms with functional groups of hydroxide and oxygen, unlike the graphene model that seeks to completely re...
