    摘要: A method for improving the environmental stability of cathode materials used in lithium-based batteries. Most currently used cathode active materials are acutely sensitive to environmental conditions, e.g. leading to moisture and CO2 pickup, that cause problems for material handling especially during electrode preparation and to gassing during charge and discharge cycles. Binder materials used for making cathodes, such as PVDF and PTFE, are mixed with and/or coated on the cathode materials to improve the environmental sensitivity of the cathode materials.

    摘要: A method for recovering base metal values from oxide ore is provided by the present disclosure. The ore includes a first metal selected from the group consisting at least one of iron and aluminum and a second metal selected from the group consisting of at least one of nickel, cobalt and copper. The method includes the steps of: contacting the oxide ore with hydrogen chloride gas to obtain chlorides of the first and second metals and subjecting at least the first and second metals to pyrohydrolysis at a predetermined temperature to decompose the chlorides of the first metal into oxides. The method also includes the step of mixing the oxides of the first metal and the chlorides of the second metal in an aqueous solution to dissolve the chlorides of the second metal and recovering the dissolved ions of the second metal from the aqueous solution.

    摘要: An acidic aqueous electrolyte solution for production of a nickel cathode is provided which includes nickel ions, and 2,5-dimethyl-3-hexyne-2,5-diol. The 2,5- dimethyl -3-hexyne-2,5-diol may be present in the acidic aqueous electrolyte solution in an amount ranging from about 5 ppm to about 300 ppm. Also provided is a process for electrowinning or electrorefining a nickel cathode which includes providing an acidic aqueous electrolyte solution including nickel ions, and 2,5- dimethyl -3-hexyne-2,5-diol; and electrolytically depositing nickel to form a nickel cathode. Addition of 2,5- dimethyl -3-hexyne-2,5-diol results in a reduction of striations and other defects which may occur on the surface of cathodes made by electrowinning or electrorefining.

    摘要: The invention relates to a method for fabricating an open-porous molded body which is formed from nickel or iron and at least another element which form solid solutions or intermetallic phases as well as a molded body which is correspondingly fabricated, and the use thereof. During the fabrication it is proceeded then, such that a coating with a metallic powder forming solid solutions or intermetallic phases is deposited upon an open-porous body made of nickel or iron by means of an organic binder. Subsequent thereto, the open-porous body provided with the coating is brought into the desired shape with observing minimum bending radii, and subsequently the organic components are removed in a first thermal treatment step. By means of a second thermal treatment the open-porous molded body is sintered, and the solid solution or the intermetallic phase are formed.
