Electronical Conductivity Improvement of Carbon-Based Slurry Electrodes Using Carbon Foams for Enhanced Performance in Advanced Electrochemical Energy Storage Systems
Abstract:In this work, the novel idea of using a carbon foam to improve slurry electrode systems' electronic and ionic conductivities is introduced and experimentally investigated. Slurries with different mass loadings of 5, 10, and 15 wt % are prepared using steam-activated Norit (from peat) as an active charge carrier with 1 M H 2 SO 4 and distilled water for specifically analyzing the electronic conductivity. A single-pass rectangular flow channel is used in this slurry system, where the channel width is varied from… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
