Structural and kinetic characterization of lithium intercalation into carbon anodes for secondary lithium batteries

Journal Article Takami, Norio ; Satoh, Asako ; Hara, Michikazu ; ... - Journal of the Electrochemical Society

Electrochemical intercalation of lithium into carbons has been studied using mesophase-pitch-based carbon fibers with different heat-treatment temperatures, coke, and graphites as anodes for secondary lithium batteries. The variations in the average layer spacing and the voltage profile for the carbons with intercalating depend on the degree of graphitization. The intercalation into a more disordered carbon fiber heated at 900 C has been characterized as intercalation into the layer structure for 0 < x < 0.5 in Li{sub x}C{sub 6}, but additional lithium insertion into an unorganized carbon loses the layer structure. The polarization resistance (R{sub p}) estimated from the impedancemore »« less

Room-temperature Electrochemical Synthesis of Carbide-derived Carbons and Related Materials

Technical Report Gogotsi, Yury

This project addresses room-temperature electrochemical etching as an energy-efficient route to synthesis of 3D nanoporous carbon networks and layered 2D carbons and related structures, as well as provides fundamental understanding of structure and properties of materials produced by this method. Carbide-derived-carbons (CDCs) are a growing class of nanostructured carbon materials with properties that are desirable for many applications, such as electrical energy and gas storage. The structure of these functional materials is tunable by the choice of the starting carbide precursor, synthesis method, and process parameters. Moving from high-temperature synthesis of CDCs through vacuum decomposition above 1400°C and chlorination abovemore »« less

Carbon Materials for Chemical Capacitive Energy Storage

Journal Article Zhai, Yunpu ; Dou, Yuqian ; Zhao, Dongyuan ; ... - Advanced Materials

Carbon materials have attracted intense interests as electrode materials for electrochemical capacitors, because of their high surface area, electrical conductivity, chemical stability and low cost. Activated carbons produced by different activation processes from various precursors are the most widely used electrodes. Recently, with the rapid growth of nanotechnology, nanostructured electrode materials, such as carbon nanotubes and template-synthesized porous carbons have been developed. Their unique electrical properties and well controlled pore sizes and structures facilitate fast ion and electron transportation. In order to further improve the power and energy densities of the capacitors, carbon-based composites combining electrical double layer capacitors (EDLC)-capacitancemore »« less

Graphitization of Evaporated Carbon (in Japanese)

Journal Article Noda, Tokiti ; Matsuoka, Hiroshi - Kogyo Kagaku Zasshi

Pure carbon deposits were prepared by the evaporation of graphite of atomic reactor grade in a vacuum furnace and were heat-treated at temperatures between 2000 and 3000 deg C either in vacuo or under the atmospheric pressure. The lattice constants, crystal size, and orientation of graphite crystallites in the heat-treated carbons were measured by the x-ray diffraction method. The specimens were also observed under an electron microscope. The original evaporated carbon was nearly amorphous and had the turbostratic structure of relatively large graphite-like layers. The degree of graphitization of the carbons increased rapidly from 2000 to 2500 deg C andmore »« less

THE INTERACTION OF GASES WITH CARBON SURFACES

Journal Article Culver, R.V. ; Watts, H. - Rev. Pure and Appl. Chem. (Australia)

The interactions between gases and carbon surfaces by chemisorption, reaction, and physical adsorption processes are reviewed. The crystael structure of graphite and of the amorphous carbons and the transitions in structure that occur during carbonization and graphitization processes were investigated. Chemisorption studies were made on amorphous carbons. Physical adsorption on heat-treated carbon blacks was also investigated. For the purpose of correlating adsorptive characteristics with the chemical composition of the surface, adsorption studies were made with carbon blacks and charcoals modified by heat- treatment in the absence of air and by oxidation, reduction, and steaming. The effect of alkali metuls andmore »« less
