Proton conducting BaCe0.9Y0.1O3-x (BCY10) thick films are deposited on cermet anodes made of nickel-yttrium doped barium cerate using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) technique. BCY10 powders are prepared by the citrate-nitrate auto-combustion method and the cermet anodes are prepared by the evaporation and decomposition solution and suspension method. The EPD parameters are optimized and the deposition time is varied between I and 5 min to obtain films with different thicknesses. The anode substrates and electrolyte films are co-sintered at 1550 degrees C for 2 h to obtain a dense electrolyte film keeping a suitable porosity in the anode, with a single heating treatment. The samples are characterized by Held emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS). A prototype fuel cell is prepared depositing a composite La0.8Sr0.2Co0.8 Fe0.2O3 (LSCF)-BaCe0.9Yb0.1O3-delta (10YbBC) cathode oil the co-sintered half cell. Fuel cell tests that are performed at 650 C oil the prototype single cells show a maximum power density of 174 mW cm(-2). (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Effects of the silver nanodots on the photocatalytic activity of mixed-phase TiO2

Nikola Tasic, Jovana Cirkovi, Vesna Ribic, Milan Zunic, Aleksandra Dapcevic, Goran Brankovic, Zorica Brankovi

Summary: In this study, mixed-phase TiO2 nanoparticles decorated with silver nanodots were synthesized using an environmentally-friendly wet chemical method with low molecular weight chitosan as the silver reducing agent. The addition of silver resulted in increased visible light absorption and enhanced photocatalytic activity, with optimum properties achieved at 5 wt% of silver. The structural analysis revealed that the Ag nanoparticles crystallized in a rare hexagonal modification and were implanted on the surface of anatase grains, contributing to the improved performance.

Examining the effects of silicon based additives on the long-term cycling capabilities of cylindrical cells

Anmol Jnawali, Matt D. R. Kok, Francesco Iacoviello, Daniel J. L. Brett, Paul R. Shearing

Summary: This article presents the results of a systematic study on the electrochemical performance and mechanical changes in two types of commercial batteries with different anode chemistry. The study reveals that the swelling of anode layers in batteries with silicon-based components causes deformations in the jelly roll structure, but the presence of a small percentage of silicon does not significantly impact the cycling performance of the cells within the relevant state-of-health range for electric vehicles (EVs). The research suggests that there is room for improving the cell capacities by increasing the silicon loading in composite anodes to meet the increasing demands on EVs.

Towards understanding the functional mechanism and synergistic effects of LiMn2O4-LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2 blended positive electrodes for Lithium-ion batteries

Dimitrios Chatzogiannakis, Marcus Fehse, Maria Angeles Cabanero, Natalia Romano, Ashley Black, Damien Saurel, M. Rosa Palacin, Montse Casas-Cabanas

Summary: By coupling electrochemical testing to operando synchrotron based X-ray absorption and powder diffraction experiments, blended positive electrodes consisting of LiMn2O4 spinel (LMO) and layered LiNi0.5Mn0.3Co0.2O2 (NMC) were studied to understand their redox mechanism. It was found that blending NMC with LMO can enhance energy density at high rates, with the blend containing 25% LMO showing the best performance. Testing with a special electrochemical setup revealed that the effective current load on each blend component can vary significantly from the nominal rate and also changes with SoC. Operando studies allowed monitoring of the oxidation state evolution and changes in crystal structure, in line with the expected behavior of individual components considering their electrochemical current loads.
