General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

Lithium iodide can be used:


  • As a precursor to synthesize polymer-based electrolytes for dye-sensitized solar cell(DSSC) application via solution casting method.
  • Li2S-P2S5-LiI crystalline inorganic-organic hybrid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity via liquid-phase synthesis for all solid-state batteries.
  • As a redox mediator for Lithium–oxygen (Li–O2) batteries. It can facilitate redox reactions by shuttling charge carriers between electrodes, enabling efficient energy conversion.

Features and Benefits

  • Excellent ionic conductivity at elevated temperature
  • Good thermal stability
  • Compatible with lithium-based battery materials.

Integration of solar-energy harvesting and storage functions has attracted significant research attention, as it holds promise for ultimate development of light-chargeable devices. In this context, a functional nanocomposite anode that not only permits electrochemical energy storage through Li-ion photo-intercalation, but

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) with long-term stability are produced using polymer-gel electrolytes (PGEs). In this study, we introduce the formation of PGEs using in situ gelation with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) particles and graphene fillers that are pre-deposited on the counter electrodes.

Mesoporous cobalt sulfide nanotube arrays on FTO-coated glass were synthesized by combining three simple technologies: the selective etching of ZnO sacrificial templates, mesoporous Co3 O4 formation from cobalt-chelated chitosan, and ion-exchange reaction (IER). The mesoporous Co3 O4 nanotubes composed of

Complex Hydrides: A New Category of Solid-state Lithium Fast-ion Conductors

Research and development of solid-state lithium fast-ion conductors is crucial because they can be potentially used as solid electrolytes in all-solid-state batteries, which may solve the safety and energy-density related issues of conventional lithium-ion batteries that use liquid (farmable organic) electrolytes.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
