Styrene-Butadiene Rubber (SBR) Binder for Li-ion Battery Anode Materials

Lithium ion batteries are widely used in consumer electronics like laptops and cellular phones. Since lithium ion batteries produced, there have been many technological developments to increase their performance. One of the most important issues for lithium ion batteries is to work on low temperatures for the applications in aerospace, military and electrical vehicles. In the studies related to this topic it is widely observed that the insertion and extraction of lithium is more difficult at low temperatures.
For this purpose, some polymers were studied on and it was seen that most polymers at room temperature show the familiar polymeric properties of material flexibility and high resistance to cracking. But as the temperature decreases, these polymers become hard and brittle. So, it can be said that a poorly chosen binder system may cause impact damage to the electrode, like electrode cracking, peeling of the structure and manufacturing imperfections.
To solve this problem styrene-butadiene rubber/carboxymethylcellulose (SBR/CMC) has been studied in silicon-based electrodes to improve durability at low temperatures and cycle stability. For a SBR/CMC-based anode, interactionsbetween the carboxylic acid in the CMC and the hydroxyl groups in the Si-C silicon composite can form chemical networks on the surface of silicon. So, it is obvious that styrene butadiene rubber binder can be useful for you for using in lithium ion battery applications.

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...
