Ceramic polymer electrolytes composites preparation

Kumar et al. [36] recently published a report on solid-state lithium-air batteries. The lithium-ion, conductive solid electrolyte membrane is based on glass-ceramic (GC) and polymer-ceramic materials. This solid electrolyte is used as the ionic conductive membrane between the lithium electrode and the air electrode. It also is used in the soHd composite air cathode prepared from high-surface-area carbon. The cell exhibited excellent thermal stabihty in the 30-105 °C temperature range... 

In the preparation of the electrolyte/anode dual-layer hollow fibers for this woik, two ceramic suspensions were prepared separately. Suspension of the anode inner layer was composed of 60 wt% of nickel oxide (NiO) and 40 wt% of cerium gadolinium oxide (CGO), whereas the one for the electrolyte outer layer contained 100% CGO powder. Hie suspension compositions for the fabrication of four different dual-layer hollow fibers are listed in Table 11.2. Caamic powdas wctc first mixed with DMSO and Arlacel P135 as the solvent and dispasant, respectively, and stirred for 48 h. After this time, PESf pellets as the polymer binder were slowly added into the mixtures with stirring at 300 rpm. The mixing continued for an extra 48 h to obtain homogeneous spinning suspension.
