    Abstract : Surface film formation at the electrode/electrolyte interface in lithium-ion batteries has a crucial impact on battery performance and safety. This thesis describes the characterisation and treatment of electrode interfaces in lithium-ion batteries. READ MORE

  5. 18. Low-Cost, Environmentally Friendly Electric Double-Layer Capacitors : Concept, Materials and Production

    Author : Britta Andres; Håkan Olin; Christina Dahlström; Jonas Örtegren; Renyun Zhang; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Electric Double-Layer Capacitor; Graphite; Cellulose Nanofibers; Large-Scale; Mass Balancing; Metal-Free;

    Abstract : Today’s society is currently performing an exit from fossilfuel energy sources. The change to sustainable alternativesrequires inexpensive and environmentally friendly energy storagedevices. However, most current devices contain expensive,rare or toxic materials. These materials must be replaced bylow-cost, abundant, nontoxic components. READ MORE

  6. 19. Functional Binders at the Interface of Negative and Positive Electrodes in Lithium Batteries
