Advancing Li/CFX Battery Chemistry: A Study On Partially Reduced CFx As A Primary Li/CFx Cell Cathode MaterialMathews, Martin 09 December 2011 (has links)
Conventional primary Li/CFx batteries employ graphite and polyvinylidene fluoride additives in the cathodes. These additives usher in some un-desired side-effects, such as lower battery capacities (mAh/g) and smaller current densities (mA/g). An innovative pretreatment was developed in this research in which CFx was subject to a “solvated electron” reduction to obtain a thin layer graphitic carbon coating on the CFx particle surfaces. Resistivity tests revealed that these partially reduced CFx particles have a higher conductivity at comparable graphitic carbon contents. Electrochemical discharge reactions demonstrated that batteries made from the reduced CFx were superior to the conventional batteries with higher current densities and higher capacities achieved. Impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies found out that the reduced CFx particles have smaller cell reaction resistances, smaller double layer/intercalation capacitances and smaller mass transport resistances. It appears that use of reduced CFx has the potential to replace the conventional CFx plus additives as a cathode material in Li/CFx batteries.

Morphologie des mélanges ternaires PLA/PBAT/PA / Morphology of PLA/PBAT/PA ternary blendsFu, Yang 18 December 2017 (has links)
Ce travail vise à obtenir une morphologie cœur-peau directement lors du mélangeage à l’état fondu de polymères ternaires PLA/PBAT/PA. Le but final est d'améliorer la ténacité de l'acide polylactique (PLA). La morphologie des mélanges de polymères multi-phases est contrôlée par la thermodynamique du système. La morphologie des mélanges ternaires peut être prédite à partir des valeurs relatives des trois coefficients d'étalement caractérisant le triplet de polymères. Les coefficients d'étalement sont calculés à partir des valeurs des tensions interfaciales entre les composants binaires. La détermination des tensions interfaciales entre PLA, poly (butylène adipate-co-téréphtalate) (PBAT) et un copolyamide (PA) prédit une morphologie dispersée complexe dans la matrice PLA où les sous-inclusions PA sont partiellement encapsulées dans la phase PBAT. Cette morphologie a été obtenue par mélange à l'état fondu des trois composants, comme observé par les observations en microscopie électronique à balayage. Dans une seconde étape, une compatibilisation sélective a été utilisée pour modifier l'emplacement des sous-inclusions de PA. A cette fin, deux copolymères diblocs PBAT-b-PLA, PA-b-PBAT ont été synthétisés. La présence des copolymères diblocs nous permet de modifier la tension interfaciale des couples PLA/PBAT, PA/PBAT. Cette modification de l'équilibre de tension interfaciale modifie avec succès la morphologie, passant d’une semi-encapsulation à une encapsulation complète des sous-inclusions de PA dans les gouttes de PBAT. La performance mécanique de ce mélange ternaire a été évaluée. / This work aims at achieving direct core-shell morphologies in ternary PLA/PBAT/PA polymer blends by melt mixing. The final goal is to improve the toughness of polylactic acid (PLA). The morphology of multi-phase polymer blends is controlled by the thermodynamics of the system. The morphology of ternary blends can be predicted from the relative values of the three spreading coefficients characterizing the triplet of polymers. Spreading coefficients are calculated from the values of interfacial tensions between binary components. The determination of interfacial tensions between a PLA, a poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) (PBAT) and a copolyamide (PA) predicts a complex dispersed morphology in the PLA matrix where PA subinclusions are partly encapsulated in the PBAT phase. This morphology was obtained by melt mixing the three components, as observed by scanning electron microscopy. In a second step, selective compatibilization was used to modify the PA sub-inclusion location. To this end, PBAT-b-PLA and PA-b-PBAT di-block copolymers were synthesized. The presence of the di-block copolymers enabled to modify the interfacial tension in PLA/PBAT and PA/PBAT. The modification of the interfacial tension balance was shown to successfully change the morphology from semi-encapsulation to full encapsulation of PA sub-inclusions in the PBAT drops. The mechanical performance of this ternary blend was evaluated.

Preparação e caracterização de microesferas poliméricas com morfologia casca-núcleo e propriedades magnéticas à base de estireno e divinilbenzeno / Preparation and characterization of microspheres polymeric core-shell morphology and magnetic properties based on styrene and divinylbenzeneWashington Jose Fernandes Formiga 06 March 2012 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Foram sintetizadas microesferas poliméricas com propriedades magnéticas e morfologia casca-núcleo por meio da técnica de polimerização em suspensão em duas etapas. O núcleo foi constituído por poli(estireno-co-divinilbenzeno) e magnetita modificada com ácido oleico. Foi avaliada a influência da velocidade de agitação e da concentração de iniciador sobre as características das microesferas utilizadas como núcleo (morfologia, tamanho de partículas, propriedades magnéticas e estabilidade térmica). A casca foi constituída por poli(estireno-co-divinilbenzeno) sem material magnético. Foi avaliado o método de adição da emulsão dos monômeros formadores da casca e o tempo de inchamento dos núcleos na emulsão. As microesferas casca-núcleo foram caracterizadas quanto ao seu aspecto morfológico e à estabilidade térmica. Os núcleos não apresentaram ciclos de histerese, estando assim próximos de um material com propriedades superparamagnéticas. O copolímero sintetizado com a maior velocidade de agitação e a menor concentração de iniciador foi o que apresentou o maior teor de ferro incorporado (3,317 %), a maior magnetização de saturação (2,99 emu/g) e o menor diâmetro médio de partículas (81 m). As microesferas casca-núcleo apresentaram apenas um estágio de degradação e as suas Tmáx foram menores do que a do núcleo. O mapa composicional de ferro confirmou a presença de magnetita na superfície das microesferas casca-núcleo / Polymeric microspheres with magnetic properties and core-shell morphology were synthesized by the technique of suspension polymerization in two stages. The core was constituted by poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) and magnetite coated with oleic acid. The influence of stirring rate and initiator concentration on microspheres characteristics (morphology, particle size, magnetic properties and thermal stability) was studied. The shell was constituted by poly(styrene-co-divinylbenzene) without magnetic material. It was also evaluated the methods of the monomers emulsion addition and the coress swelling time in the emulsion.. The microspheres were characterized by morphologic aspect and thermal stability. The cores did not presented hysteresis cycles, thus proving the superparamagnetic properties. Copolymer synthesized with the higher stirring rate and lower initiator concentration presented the higher incorporated iron content (3.317 %), higher saturation magnetization (2.99 emu/g) and the lower average particle diameter (81 m). Core-shell microspheres presented only one stage of degradation and the Tmáx were smaller than temperature of the cores. Iron compositional map confirmed the presence of magnetite on the surface of core-shell microspheres
