  • Publication number: 20240222697
    Abstract: A method for preparing a sodium super ionic conductor solid electrolyte by low-dimensional crystallization belongs to a field of energy materials. The method is based on the theory of negative ion coordination polyhedron growth unit, and uses low-temperature plasma as a protective gas of a spray drying equipment. While evaporating the solvent in a sodium super ionic conductor solid electrolyte precursor slurry, plasma active groups modify the particle surface of the sodium super ionic conductor solid electrolyte precursor particles in-situ. A free space dimension of crystal growth in the crystallization process is reduced, and directional growth of crystals in the solid phase sintering process is induced. Secondly, the dispersion stability of the sodium super ionic conductor solid electrolyte precursor particles is improved.

  • Publication number: 20220185672
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for production of nitrogen-doped single wall carbon nanohorns from anode graphite of wasted lithium-ion batteries. The method includes the following steps: a first step: forming recycled graphite powder into graphite blocks; and, a second contact step: when the first step is completed, using a DC arc plasma device to produce the graphite blocks into N-SWCNHs.
