  2. 1. Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Explore Critical Property Relationships in Polymer Electrolytes : Polarity, Coordination, Ionic transport, Ion-pairing, and Ion-ion Correlations

    Author : Harish Gudla; Daniel Brandell; Chao Zhang; Andreas Heuer; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solid polymer electrolytes; molecular dynamics simulations; solvent polarity; ion-pairing; ion coordination; ion transport mechanisms; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : While ion transport in solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) has been explored for decades, there still remains controversies about its fundamental properties, often correlated with gaps between experimental and computational studies. Using molecular dynamics simulations to understand the complex transport mechanisms and also to fill these gaps is the main goal of this thesis. READ MORE

  4. 2. Experimental studies of ion transport in cementitious materials under partially saturated conditions

    Author : Nilla Olsson; Avdelningen för Byggnadsmaterial; []
    Keywords : Cement; Bruk; Betong; Jontransport; Fukttransport; Sorptionsisoterm; Tillsatsmaterial; Kiselstoft; Masugnsslagg; Ciment; Mortier; Béton; Transport ionique; Transport d humidité; Sorption de vapeur d eau; Additions minérales; Fumée de silice; Laitier de haut fourneau granulé moulu; Cement; Mortar; Concrete; Ion transport; moisture transport; Water vapor sorption; Supplementary cementitious materials SCMs ; Silica fume; Ground granulated blast furnace slag;

    Abstract : Cement production is responsible for a significant portion of manmade CO2 emissions. This motivates the development of cementitious binders with a lower carbon footprint. Considering the emissions in a longer perspective, the durability of concrete structures is absolutely essential. READ MORE

  5. 3. Turbulent and neoclassical transport in tokamak plasmas

    Author : Istvan Pusztai; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; thermonuclear fusion; tokamaks; microinstabilities; transport analysis; isotope effect; impurity transport; neoclassical transport; transport barriers; turbulent transport;

    Abstract : One of the greatest challenges of thermonuclear fusion is to understand, predict and to some extent control particle and energy transport in fusion plasmas. In the present thesis we consider theoretical and experimental aspects of collisional and turbulent transport in tokamak plasmas. READ MORE

  6. 4. Cation Conduction and Coordination in Carbonyl-Containing Compounds : Li+ Transport in Alternative Polymer Electrolyte Host Materials

    Author : Therese Eriksson; Daniel Brandell; Jonas Mindemark; Claudio Gerbaldi; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Solid polymer electrolytes; Lithium ion batteries; Ion transport; Polyester; Polycarbonate; Polyketone; Ion coordination; Kemi med inriktning mot materialkemi; Chemistry with specialization in Materials Chemistry;

    Abstract : The field of solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) used to create safer lithium-ion batteries has been dominated by polyethylene oxide (PEO) since the discovery of its ion-conducting properties in the 1970s. In this thesis, as an alternative, the ion coordination and conduction properties of SPEs based on polyketones, polyesters and polycarbonates are investigated. READ MORE

  7. 5. Ion Transport in Cross-linked Nanocellulose Membranes

    Author : Hongli Yang; Isak Engquist; Magnus Berggren; Klaus-Dieter Kreuer; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Membranes; Nanocellulose; Cross-linking; Ion transport; Energy harvesting and storage devices;

    Abstract : Ion-selective membranes, which allow ions with a certain charge and/or size to pass through while blocking other ions, have attracted much attention due to their diverse applications and outstanding roles in overcoming problems related to energy. In addition to the performance, the financial cost and renewability of materials are equally significant in the development of these membranes. READ MORE
