Abstract: A lithium battery is provided. The lithium battery includes an anode, a cathode, a separation film, and an electrolyte solution. The cathode and the anode are disposed separately. The separation film is disposed between the cathode and the anode. The electrolyte solution includes an organic solvent, a lithium salt, and an electrolyte additive. The electrolyte additive includes a compound represented by formula (1): wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independently a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, or C1-C3 haloalkyl group, and at least one of R1, R2, R3, and R4 is a halogen atom or C1-C3 haloalkyl group.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for fabricating a carbon membrane having pore regularity. The method comprises: providing a template having a plurality of pores arranged regularly; performing a tubular carbon forming process in the regularly-arranged pores; then performing a removal process to form an annular cavity; performing a carbon forming process in the annular cavity to combine the carbon in the annular cavity with the tubular carbon to thereby form a carbon substance having a thick wall; and repeatedly performing the removal process and the carbon forming process so as to form a carbon membrane having pore regularity.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for catalytic synthesis of oxygenate from alcohol. At first, a feeding material comprising at least one alcohol is provided. Next, a copper-containing catalyst is provided and the catalyst further comprises at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of the following: zinc, magnesium, and aluminum elements. Following that, a catalytic reaction of the feeding material over the copper-containing catalyst is carried out to synthesize at least one oxygenate.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for forming a catalytic coating. First, at least one alcohol is provided. Then, at least one alcohol and a solvent are mixed to form a middle solution. Next, a heating process is performed to heat the middle solution, and during the heating process, adding a platinum precursor and a protecting agent to the middle solution, so as to form a catalytic coating containing a plurality of platinum nanoparticles with mainly Pt—Pt bond, wherein the protecting agent comprises any one of any combination of the group consisting of: organic acid, polymeric acid, salt of organic acid and salt of polymeric acid. Furthermore, this invention also discloses methods for forming a fuel cell electrode by the mentioned catalytic coating.
