Solid Polymer Electrolyte Synthesis

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
PEGDMA (Mn = 750), Diglyme and Lithium Nitrate were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. All chemicals were thoroughly dried before usage. The PEGDMA and Diglyme were mixed in different ratios as required, however the LiNO3 content was maintained at Li:EO = 0.1 for all the samples. The mixture was thoroughly mixed to obtain a uniform solution. After addition of 4 wt.% of a photoinitiator methyl benzoylformate (MBF), the solution was casted on a desired substrate and exposed to UV light (VMR UVAC 115 V ∼60 Hz 254/365 nm) for 20 min. After the reaction, the membranes were utilized as is for characterizations.
The solid polymer interphase was formed using the same procedure, however the reaction was carried out on a flat piece of lithium metal anode in an Argon-filled glove-box.

Cathode and Anode Fabrication for Ca-Ion Batteries

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The active material, carbon
black (Timcal, SUPER C65), and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE, DuPont,
Teflon 8A) were mixed inside a glovebox at a weight ratio of 7:2:1
to prepare the cathode films. The anodes were prepared by mixing activated
carbon (AC) (Sigma), carbon black, and PTFE at a weight ratio of 8:1:1
in the glovebox. The mixtures were rolled to form thin film cathodes
and anodes. The coin cells were prepared using these cathode and anode
thin films with a loading density of 3 mg/cm2 cathode to
20 mg/cm2 anode. The electrolyte was prepared by drying
calcium(II) bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [Ca(TFSI)2, 99.5% Solvionic] salt at 170 °C overnight in an Ar-filled
glovebox. The dried salt was then used to form 0.5 M Ca(TFSI)2 in diglyme (99.5%, Sigma-Aldrich). The electrolyte and its
components were kept inside the glovebox throughout the process. Coin
cells were assembled using the electrolyte, cathode, and anode thin
films, in addition to the separators (Whatman glass microfiber filter).
Galvanostatic cycling tests were performed at 50 °C by using
an Arbin battery tester. The tests were conducted at a current density
of 2 mA/g, and ex situ samples were collected after washing the cathode
thin films with diglyme in an Ar-filled glovebox.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
