PVDF Binder for Li-ion Battery Electrodes

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is a highly non-reactive thermoplastic fluoropolymer produced by the polymerization of vinylidene difluoride. PVDF is a specialty plastic used in applications needing the highest purity, as well as resistance to solvents, acids and hydrocarbons. PVDF is used as piping products, sheet, tubing, films, plate and an insulator for premium wire. PVDF is used in many different areas like in semiconductors, madical and defense industries. One of the important area that PVDF is used is lithium ion batteries as binder.
In lithium ion batteries the binder can be considered as a key component . The major function of the binders in lithium ion batteries is to act as an effective dispersion agent to connect the electrode species together and then steadily adhere them to the current collectors.
PVDF is one of the most commonly binders used for cathode of lithium ion batteries because of its superior electrochemical and thermal stability and good adhesion between the current collectors and electrode films.
By the adhesion between the current collectors and electrode films obtained by PVDF Binder for Li-ion Battery Electrodes the longer cycle life and higher energy density can be obtained at even lower PVDF binder addition. Also the polar functional groups in PVDF binder result in lower internal energy. Long‐term stability can be ensured by the PVDF's excellent chemical resistance in the aggressive environment of lithium ion batteries, which includes organic carbonates and lithium salts.

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...
