摘要:
A process of forming and the resulting nano-pitted metal substrate that serves both as patterns to grow nanostructured materials and as current collectors for the resulting nanostructured material is disclosed herein. The nano-pitted substrate can be fabricated from any suitable conductive material that allows nanostructured electrodes to be grown directly on the substrate.
摘要:
Impedance is used to determine the performance of paraffin inhibitors in oil containing paraffin. The method and system can use a specially designed impedance cell having a cell constant of less than 1 cm−1. Further, the method can include obtaining at least impedance measurements above the wax appearance temperature (WAT) for an oil sample treated with a paraffin inhibitor and an oil sample not treated, and impedance measurements below the WAT for the treated oil sample and the untreated oil sample. Thereafter, the impedance measurements are correlated to determine paraffin inhibitor performance.
摘要:
A three-dimensional nanobattery formed by individually wiring nanostructured electrodes and combining them with an electrolyte. Short, capped nanotubes termed ‘nanobaskets’ are formed by sputtering coating onto nanoporous templates. Metallic nanowires are grown by electrochemical deposition from the nanobaskets and through the template, making electrical contact with each nanobasket electrode. The same procedure can be used to fabricate both a battery anode and a battery cathode. A thin layer of electrolyte is placed between the two nanobasket electrodes, and electrical contact is made through the nanowires.
摘要:
A process of sputter deposition of both a cathode material and an anode material from a single target source. The process includes the steps of deposition sputtering on a porous substrate from a lithiated metal oxide target source to produce an anode. In addition, deposition sputtering on a porous substrate from the same lithiated metal oxide target source is utilized to produce a cathode. A nanostructured battery may be produced having a metal oxide anode and a lithiated metal oxide cathode, wherein the anode and the cathode are generated from a single target source.
