  • Si85Fe15Ox Alloy Anode Materials with High Thermal Stability for Lithium Ion Batteries 

    Yijia Liu, Michael Charlton, Jun Wang, J. Craig Bennett and M. N. Obrovac. Si85 Fe15 Ox Alloy Anode Materials with High Thermal Stability for Lithium Ion Batteries. J. Electrochem. Soc. (2021), 168 (11), 110521.
    The synthesis, microstructure and electrochemical properties of ball milled Si85Fe15Ox alloys with different oxygen contents are investigated. These materials combine the features of Si-M alloys (low irreversible capacity) ...
  • Sintered polymeric binders for Li-ion battery alloy anodes 

    T.D. Hatchard, R.A. Fielden and M.N. Obrovac, Sintered Polymeric Binders for Li-ion Battery Alloy Anodes, Can. J. Chem., 96 (2018) 765-770.
    The cycling performance in lithium half cells of Si alloy electrodes with polyvinylidene fluoride or polyimide binders were evaluated after the electrodes were cured at temperatures below and above the binder carbonization ...
  • Spherically Smooth Cathode Particles by Mechanofusion Processing 

    Lituo Zheng, Congxiao Wei, M. D. L. Garayt, Judy MacInnis, and M. N. Obrovac, Spherically Smooth Cathode Particles by Mechanofusion Processing, J. Electrochem. Soc., 166 (2019) A2924-A2927.
    Surface modification has been shown to be useful for improving the cycling performance of cathode materials. Typically hetero-compositional coatings are applied on cathode particle surfaces using methods, such as aqueous ...
  • Stabilizing NaCrO2 by Sodium Site Doping with Calcium 

    Lituo Zheng, J. C. Bennett, and M. N. Obrovac, Stabilizing NaCrO2 by Sodium Site Doping with Calcium, J. Electrochem. Soc., 166 (2019) A2058 - A2064.
    Layered cathode materials based on abundant, low cost raw materials have garnered interest in recent years. O3-type NaCrO2 is a promising cathode material as it offers decent energy density and is easy to synthesize. In ...
  • Structural and Electrochemical Investigation of FexSi1-x Thin Films in Li Cells 

    Zhijia Du, R. A. Dunlap and M. N. Obrovac, Structural and Electrochemical Investigation of FexSi1-x Thin Films in Li Cells, J. Electrochem. Soc., 163 (2016) A2011-A2016.
    FexSi1-x thin films with 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.46 have been prepared by combinatorial sputtering and their electrochemical properties have been studied in Li half-cells. X-ray diffraction showed that all of the films had an amorphous ...
  • Synthesis, Lithium Insertion and Thermal Stability of Si–Mo Alloys 

    Simeng Cao, Shayne Gracious, J. Craig Bennett and M. N. Obrovac. Synthesis, Lithium Insertion and Thermal Stability of Si–Mo Alloys. J. Electrochem. Soc. (2020), 167 (13), 130531.
    Li insertion was investigated in SixMo100−x (90 ≥ x ≥ 70, Δx = 10) alloys prepared by mechanical ball milling. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and quantitative phase analysis were used to analyze phase compositions of these Si–Mo ...
