Jennifer C. Anderson: Solid-State Batteries Via Additive Techniques, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

dvances in additive manufacturing (AM) processes are continuously opening up the material design space, providing scientists with opportunities to explore the relationship between structure, processing, and materials properties in new contexts. The first project presented in this book presents the design and refinement of a novel, polyborane-based solid electrolyte, whose design and investigation were motivated by the advent of additively manufactured, 3D electrodes, which could play a pivotal role in enabling next-generation batteries that can store more energy without sacrificing power. The first iteration of this electrolyte was synthesized by hydroborating polybutadiene with 9-borabicyclo(3.3.1)nonane (9-BBN). The resultant poly(9-BBN) was then reacted with precise amounts of n-butyllithium (n-BuLi), an organolithium reagent, to create the final polymer electrolyte. The polymer electrolyte films were assembled into a custom apparatus for impedance measurements, and though found to be ionically conductive, these measurements were not consistent, even within films made from the same batch of polymer in solution.
