  2. 1. Avoiding ageing : Surface degradation of commercial electrode materials in lithium-ion batteries

    Author : Erik Björklund; Kristina Edström; Daniel Brandell; Reza Younesi; Frank Renner; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Li-ion battery; Ageing; Photoelectron spectroscopy; Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide;

    Abstract : The battery market today expands rapidly, not least for electric vehicles. But to compete against the combustion engine, the cost of batteries must be reduced. After years of usage, the batteries degrade and need to be exchanged, increasing the cost over the vehicle lifecycle. READ MORE

  4. 2. Ageing of Asphalt Mixtures : Micro-scale and mixture morphology investigation

    Author : Prabir Kumar Das; Björn Birgisson; Nicole Kringos; Andreas Loizos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ageing; Aggregate packing; Atomic force microscopy; Asphalt mixture; Bitumen; Diffusion; Finite element analysis; Gradation; Micro-structure; Mixture morphology; Oxidative ageing; Surface ageing;

    Abstract : There are many variables that affect the viscoelastic properties of asphalt mixtures with time, among which age hardening may be considered one of the important ones. Age hardening of asphalt mixtures is an irreversible process, which contributes to a reduction of the durability of pavements and eventually increases the maintenance cost. READ MORE

  5. 3. Flow-induced Surface Defects and Ageing Behaviour of Injection-moulded Polymers

    Author : Giovanna Iannuzzi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; PP; surface defects; flow marks tiger stripes ; ageing; Injection moulding; ABS; rheological properties; degradation; surface topography; discolouration;

    Abstract : Injection moulding is one of the most commonly used manufacturing methods for the production of polymer-based components such as car bumpers and other automotive details. The surface appearance of these products is of great importance since it is directly connected to the perceived quality. READ MORE

  6. 4. Anti-Ageing Strategies : How to avoid failure in sodium-ion batteries

    Author : Le Anh Ma; Reza Younesi; Daniel Brandell; Laurent Duda; Philipp Adelhelm; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; sodium-ion batteries; manganese-based cathodes; solid electrolyte interphase; ageing mechanism; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : In order to move away from fossil fuels, batteries are one of the most important technologies to store energy from renewable sources. The rapid demands of battery applications put pressure on supply chains of raw materials, such as lithium, nickel, copper, aluminium and cobalt. READ MORE
