Abstract: A method of forming a lithium ion battery, a lithium ion battery anode, and a lithium ion battery for a vehicle. The method includes exposing a first surface of a lithium layer to carbon dioxide gas and forming a lithium carbonate layer on the first surface of the lithium layer. The method further includes depositing a fluoropolymer layer on a second surface of the lithium carbonate layer to provide a lithium anode. The battery includes one or more battery cells including the anode for the lithium ion battery. The anode includes a lithium layer including a first surface, and a hybrid coating layer disposed on the first surface, wherein the hybrid coating layer includes a plurality of lithium fluoride domains and a plurality of lithium carbonate domains within a carbonaceous matrix.

Abstract: A method of manufacture of multilayer gypsum board, and a gypsum additive delivery system, including wet gypsum board passing through a board forming station in which additives are delivered to one or more layers of a multi layered gypsum board panels, such as engineered polymers, providing a better and more water resistance surface. Preferably, the gypsum board has a first layer of a mixture of set gypsum having an outer surface and a polymeric compound or wax emulsion additive entrained therein and impregnated in a thin sheet of randomly aligned inorganic fibers to essentially encase the core gypsum within two facing layers.
