Synergistic Performance of Lithium Difluoro(oxalato)borate and Fluoroethylene Carbonate in Carbonate Electrolytes for Lithium Metal Anodes

Comparative Study of Fluoroethylene Carbonate and Vinylene Carbonate for Silicon Anodes in Lithium Ion Batteries

The cycling performance and SEI composition of Si nano-particle anodes in electrolytes containing 5–25 wt% fluoroethyelene carbonate (FEC) and 3–6 wt% vinylene carbonate (VC) has been investigated by a combination of by electrochemical cycling, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, IR-ATR and XPS. The incorporation of FEC or VC changes the cycling performance, impedance, electrode morphology,...

Intestinal vasculitis and lithium carbonate-associated diarrhoea.

Lithium carbonate is now frequently used in the treatment of both unipolar and bipolar manic depressive states. It is generally thought that the adverse reactions of this drug are associated with plasma levels above the therapeutic range of 0.8-1.2 mmol/ litre, but they may also be associated with long-term usage of the medication within the recommended plasma concentrations. (Persson, 1977). T...

Mixtures of protic ionic liquids and propylene carbonate as advanced electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries.

In this study we investigated the chemical-physical properties of mixtures containing the protic ionic liquid (PIL) N-butyl-pyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PYRH4TFSI), propylene carbonate (PC) and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) in view of their use as electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). We showed that these electrolytic solutions might display c...

Mechanism of Lithium Carbonate Induced Hyperdipsia

used for the treatment of some psychiatric disorders (Marples, Christensen , Christensen , Ottosen and Nielsen, 1995). Many bipolar disorder patients become stabilized during the administration of lithium carbonate. Nevertheless, it produces several unwanted side effects, including polydipsia and polyuria (Penney and Hampton, 1990). At present, it is not clear the origin and mechanism of these ...
