This invention utilizes a salt and an amine containing small molecule or polymer for the synthesis of a bulky anionic salt or containing single-ion conducting polymer electrolyte for the use in Li-ion and beyond Li-ion batteries.
ORNL contributes to developing the concept of passive CO2 DAC by designing and testing a hybrid sorption system. This design aims to leverage the advantages of CO2 solubility and selectivity offered by materials with selective sorption of adsorbents.
Atmospheric carbon dioxide is captured with an aqueous solution containing a guanidine photobase and a small peptide, using a UV-light stimulus, and subsequently released when the light stimulus is removed.
Next generation batteries for electric vehicles (EVs) and other manufacturing needs require solid-state batteries made with high-performance solid electrolytes. These thin films are critical components but are difficult to manufacture to meet performance standards.
Electrolysis is common in the production of clean hydrogen used to produce other chemicals such as ammonia, based on heavy use of precious metals, not mined domestically. Typical electrolyzer components prone to degradation and are not suited for long-term durability.
Current battery materials such as silicon suffer from poor ion and electron transport due to non-optimal wiring. This invention facilitates particle interconnectedness to facilitate ion motion and electron transport overcoming poor assembly.
This invention describes a new combustion synthesis route to produce high purity, high performance DRX cathodes for next-generation Li-ion batteries.
Demand for lithium is expected to increase drastically due to the use of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries used in portable electronics and electric vehicles. An efficient method to extract lithium is necessary to help meet this demand.
Technetium is a radioactive isotope that is a byproduct of nuclear processing; there are currently limited mechanisms to capture technetium when uranium is recycled, hindering the efficient recycling of spent nuclear fuel.
