  2. 11. Evaluating Cathode Catalysts in the Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell

    Author : Henrik Ekström; Göran Lindbergh; Anders Lundblad; Anthony Kucernak; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fuel cell; humidity; model electrodes; Nafion; oxygen reduction; PEMFC; platinum; polymer electrolyte; thin film evaporation; titanium oxide; bränslecell; fuktighet; modellelektroder; Nafion; PEMFC; platina; polymerelektrolyt; syrereduktion; tunnfilmsförångning; titanoxid; Electrochemistry; Elektrokemi;

    Abstract : The polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) converts the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxygen (air) into usable electrical energy. At the cathode (the positive electrode), a considerable amount of platinum is generally required to catalyse the sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). READ MORE

    Abstract : Over the past centuries, a number of process routes for extraction of metal values from an ore or other resources have been developed. These can generally be classifiedinto pyrometallurgical, hydrometallurgical or electrometallurgical routes. READ MORE

  5. 13. Characterization of Novel Electrolytes for Li-Batteries

    Author : Luis Aguilera Medina; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TFSI; pyrrolidinium; lithium ion battery; SAXS; organic solvent; Raman scattering; electrolyte; ionic liquid; imidazolium;

    Abstract : In a world that strives toward greener and more sustainable energy solutions, the need for suitable energy storage devices has brought Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) into focus of research. Although the Lithium-ion battery is a consolidated technology for portable applications, capacity, cost, and not the least safety aspects are major concerns when it comes to its implementation into large-scale energy storage applications, such as electric vehicles.
