Reverse Microemulsion Synthesis of Sulfur/Graphene Composite for Lithium/Sulfur Batteries

Reverse Microemulsion Synthesis of Sulfur/Graphene Composite for Lithium/Sulfur Batteries.

Due to its high theoretical capacity, high energy density, and easy availability, the lithium-sulfur (Li-S) system is considered to be the most promising candidate for electric and hybrid electric vehicle applications. Sulfur/carbon cathode in Li-S batteries still suffers, however, from low Coulombic efficiency and poor cycle life when sulfur loading and the ratio of sulfur to carbon are high. ...

Synthesis of Iron Yttrium Garnet Nanoparticles by Reverse Microemulsion Method

Colloidal nanodispersion of Iron Yttrium Garnet has been preparedbymixing the two ternary mixture of Triton X-100 (surfactant), n-heptane and aqueous solution that differing only in the aqueous phase.Ethanolwas added as cosurfactant and mixed them by ultrasound bath. By mixing these twomicroemulsions, Iron Yttrium garnet (Y3 Fe5 O12) nanodispersionwas obtained. Solids were settled by centrifuge...

Reverse Microemulsion Synthesis and Electrochemical Properties of LiNiO2 Powders

Lithium nickel oxide (LiNiO2) powders with an R3 m structure are successfully synthesized via a developed reverse microemulsion process. This method can effectively reduce the calcination temperature for synthesizing monophasic LiNiO2 powders to 700 C, which is much lower than that in the solid-state process. Nanosized LiNiO2 powders with narrow particle size distribution are obtained via the m...

A Novel Mixed Reverse Microemulsion Route for the Synthesis of Nanosized Titania Particles

The main objective of this work was to prepare nanosized titania (TiO2) particles by mixed reverse microemulsion route. In this work titania was prepared by quaternary microemulsion system (water/surfactant/co-surfactant/ oil-phase). Span-80, Aerosol-OT, n-Propanol, Isooctane, and Titanium tetra isopropoxide (TTIP) were used as surfactant, co-surfactant, oil-phase and titania precursor respecti...
