  • Publication number: 20140137400
    Abstract: Provided is a method of producing a silicon material, comprising: slicing a silicon substrate with a fixed-abrasives wire to obtain a mixing slurry; and treating the mixing slurry by solid-liquid separation, so as to isolate a silicon material from the mixing slurry, which is applicable for a lithium-ion battery. With the simplified method, the production cost of silicon material is remarkably reduced. Furthermore, an anode material of a lithium-ion battery and a method of producing an anode electrode of a lithium-ion battery are provided. Since the silicon material produced by the method has high purity and fine granules, the extreme volumetric expansion of silicon under heat is largely reduced, and thus the cycle stability, electrical performance, and quality of a lithium-ion battery comprising the silicon material are improved.

  • Publication number: 20140141330
    Abstract: Provided is a method of producing a silicon-containing composition in mass production, comprising steps of: slicing a silicon substrate with a free-abrasive wire to obtain a mixing slurry; separating the mixing slurry into a liquid mixture and a solid mixture; and sorting the solid mixture by particle size and removing the cutting wire granules from the solid mixture, so as to obtain the silicon-containing composition applicable for a lithium-ion battery. Furthermore, an anode material of a lithium-ion battery and a method of producing an anode electrode of a lithium-ion battery are provided. According to the method, a few abrasives of the wire sawing tool remain in the nano-scale or micro-scale silicon-containing composition, and thus the problems of extreme volumetric expansion under heat and high production cost are overcome. The produced silicon-containing composition is applicable for a lithium-ion battery.

  • Publication number: 20130230445
    Abstract: Provided is a method of processing wafer waste. First, the wafer waste is separated into liquid mixture and solid mixture by solid-liquid separation. Next, a recovered cutting fluid is isolated from the liquid mixture by evaporation. The solid mixture is mixed with a first aqueous solvent to obtain a mixing slurry. Then, the mixing slurry is separated into a silicon-containing mixture and a silicon carbide-containing mixture. After suitable washing process, a recovered silicon and a recovered silicon carbide are finally obtained. Thus, the method recovers the cutting fluid, silicon and silicon carbide in the same process, which can reduce the environmental contaminations caused by wafer waste and reduce the manufacture cost of wafer production by recovering the wafer waste.

  • Patent number: 7291201
    Abstract: A method for making Nano-scale lead-free solder includes the following steps of: forming a mixture solution Sn-Ag or Sn-Ag-Cu; making NaBH4, NaOH and alkyl C12H25OSO3Na to a reducing dispersing solution; producing reactant Sn-Ag or Sn-Ag-Cu by means of the oxidation reduction method; and adding 95% ethanol to be mixed, and cleaning the reactant by using a supersonic vibrator for removing boron (B) and sulfur (S) atom which adhere to the reactant, thereby producing the Nano-scale (0.1˜100 nm) lead-free solder Sn-3.5Ag or Sn-3.5Ag-xCu (x=0.2˜1.0).

  • Publication number: 20070148547
    Abstract: A modification of an anode material, which is used as a carbonaceous material of an anode of a Lithium-ion secondary battery, is characterized in that the surface of the carbonaceous material is plated with Sn—P or Ni—Sn—P nanoparticles. The preparation method comprises the steps of mixing a reductant solution containing phosphorus ions and an oxidant solution containing stannous ions or nickel and stannous ions to form a plating liquid, disposing a carbonaceous material into said plating liquid with pH between 3-5, and heating the environmental temperature up to 80° C.- 85° C. for 2 hours for performing an electroless plating reaction. After the carbonaceous material is cooled to room temperature, cleaning the carbonaceous material by using deionzied water. Finally, baking and drying the carbonaceous material, and a carbonaceous material with surface thereof plated with Sn—P or Ni—Sn—P nanoparticles is obtained.
