Featured R&D
Using GDEx we achieved the synthesis of material libraries, included in the structural groups of Co-doped Na-birnessite, cubic and tetragonal spinels, and CoMn-layered double hydroxides. These materials were tested for their applicability in rechargeable battery technologies, i.e., to conduct the oxygen evolution reaction showing the best performances so far reported for Co-Mn materials, and as intercalation materials for Na-ion battery cathodes. This work opens the door to a new systematic way of producing optimized and affordable materials for electrochemical energy applications and beyond. |

GDEx can realize the electrosynthesis of controllable iron oxide nanoparticles. In this work we pursued the control of the magnetic susceptibility of a variety of Fe(II) to Fe(III) ratios, i.e., from magnetite to maghemite. These types of iron oxides can, for instance, perform as active materials for Na-ion rechargeable batteries. |

Semi-solid flow batteries (SSFBs) have been heralded as an innovative type of rechargeable flow batteries with high volumetric energy density. In this work we developed a reliable model conceptualizing these type of batteries, introducing an innovative multi-scale and multi-physics approach. Although our model is exemplified by a nickel-metal-hydride (NiMH) chemistry, it is applicable to others, including Li-ion SSFBs. |
