Graphene battery principle: graphene coated Sb2Se3 multi-dimensional nanostructure, excellent performance sodium ion battery anode material

【introduction】

Lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in portable devices and electric vehicles, and have played an important role in large-scale energy storage. However, due to the lack of lithium resources in the earth's crust and uneven distribution, it is urgent to find new energy storage materials as a supplement and substitute for lithium-ion batteries. Compared to lithium, sodium exhibits similar electrochemical properties and is rich in natural resources in the earth's crust; these advantages make sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) one of the most promising energy storage materials. At present, many researchers have explored the electrode materials of sodium ion batteries, but still can not meet the requirements of anode materials for low price, high capacity and long cycle.

Graphene battery principle: graphene coated Sb2Se3 multi-dimensional nanostructure - excellent performance sodium ion battery anode material

[Introduction]

In order to obtain the anode material of sodium ion battery with excellent electrochemical performance, Professor Yang Chenghao from South China University of Technology and Professor Kevin Huang of the University of South Carolina recently published a book titled A New rGO-Overcoated Sb2Se3 Nanorods Anode for Na+ Battery on Advanced FuncTIonal Materials. : In Situ X-Ray DiffracTIon Study on a Live SodiaTIon/DesodiaTIon Process article and was named Back Inside Cover cover story. In this paper, graphene-coated Sb2Se3 multi-dimensional nanostructures were synthesized by a simple one-step solvothermal method, and the composite was used as an anode material for sodium ion batteries. It was found by in-situ X-ray diffraction that the deintercalation reaction, the conversion reaction and the alloy reaction occurred during the charging and discharging of Sb2Se3, and provided a relatively high theoretical mass ratio capacity. However, volume expansion and contraction are experienced during charge and discharge, and even the active material is detached, resulting in lower electron conductivity and poor cycle stability. The most effective mitigation method is to place Sb2Se3 in a carbon substrate material as a volume buffer to suppress volume expansion and improve electrical conductivity. Due to the large specific surface area, excellent electron conductivity and good thermal stability of reduced graphene oxide (rGO), rGO is considered to be the most ideal carbon material substrate for Sb2Se3.

Game Machine Wiring Harness

The wire harness simplifies the building of these larger components by integrating the wiring into a single unit, or several units, for [drop-in" installation. By binding the many wires, cables, and subassemblies into a harness, the OEM or installer only has one component to install. In addition, a wire harness allows the completed assembly to be better secured against the effects of abrasion and vibration, and by constricting the wires into a non-flexing bundle, usage of space is optimized.
