  • Analysis of the Thermal Behaviour of CL-20, Potassium Perchlorate, Lithium Perchlorate and Their Admixtures by DSC and TG

The DSC curves for KP exhibited three endothermic peaks and one exothermic peak. The first two endothermic peaks correspond to the rhombic- cubic transition and the fusion of KP, respectively, the third indicates the fusion of KCl, while the exothermic peak is attributed to the decomposition of KP. The DSC curves obtained from LP showed four endothermic peaks and one exothermic peak. The first two endothermic peaks indicate the loss of adsorbed water and water of crystallization, while the third and fourth are associated with the fusion of LP and LiCl, respectively; the exothermic peak is due to the decomposition of LP. The presence of KP had little effect on the thermal decomposition of CL-20 while the addition of LP increased the temperature at which CL-20 exhibits an exothermic peak. In addition, the thermal decomposition of LP appeared to be catalyzed by the presence of CL-20.

  • Quantification of Lithium Via Redox Titration and Ph Titration – a Method Comparison
    Quantification of Lithium via Redox Titration and pH Titration – A Method Comparison by Joseph J. Hebert A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Chemical Engineering and Chemistry (Honors Associate) Presented May 26, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Joseph J. Hebert for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Chemical Engineering and Chemistry presented on May 26, 2020. Title: Quantification of Lithium via Redox Titration and pH Titration - A Method Comparison. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Michael Lerner Lithium serves an unparalleled role for high energy-density storage applications and is vital for the continued advancement of the world economy. However, global supply is heavily reliant on lithium deposits situated in select locations, creating unpredictability in the price and concerns for the sustained production of the resource. Additionally, future demands for applications in the small electronics, automotive, and renewable energy industries threaten to place further strain on the lithium supply. Thus, the implementation of lithium battery recycling methods is critical meet this expected surge in demand for lithium-based battery technologies. Several economic obstacles and safety considerations have halted the advancement of these necessary recycling techniques. A prominent barrier to recycling efforts revolves around the reactivity of active lithium compounds that remain in used lithium batteries. As a result, significant safety precautions must be taken when handling and transporting lithium-based batteries, adding to the costs associated with recycling methods. Current research has been dedicated to developing a passivation method for the remaining active lithium in used cells, seeking to lower the classification, and subsequently the costs, associated with these materials.

The different industrial uses of lithium are discussed in this review along with a compilation of the locations of the main geological sources of lithium. An emphasis is placed on lithium’s use in lithium ion batteries and their use in the electric vehicle industry. The electric vehicle market is driving new demand for lithium resources. The expected scale-up in this sector will put pressure on current lithium supplies. The European Union has a burgeoning demand for lithium and is the second largest consumer of lithium resources. Currently, only 1–2% of worldwide lithium is produced in the European Union (Portugal). There are several lithium mineralisations scattered across Europe, the majority of which are currently undergoing mining feasibility studies. The increasing cost of lithium is driving a new global mining boom and should see many of Europe’s mineralisation’s becoming economic. The information given in this paper is a source of contextual information that can be used to support the European Union’s drive towards a low carbon economy and to develop the field of research.

Smith1 1Centro de Química, Universidade do Minho, Gualtar, 4710-057 Braga, Portugal 2Instituto de Tecnologia Química e Biológica, UNL, Av. República 127, 2780-901 Oeiras, Portugal, www.itqb.unl.pt *[email protected] Abstract In this paper the preparation and purification of an amorphous polymer network, poly[oxymethylene-oligo(oxyethylene)], designated as aPEO, are described. The flexible CH2CH2O segments in this host polymer combine appropriate mechanical properties, over a critical temperature range from -20 to 60 ºC, with labile salt-host interactions. The intensity of these interactions is sufficient to permit solubilization of the guest salt in the host polymer while permitting adequate mobility of ionic guest species. We also report the preparation and characterization of a novel polymer electrolyte based on this host polymer with lithium tetrafluoroborate, LiBF4, as guest salt. Electrolyte samples are thermally stable up to approximately 250 ºC and completely amorphous above room temperature. The electrolyte composition determines the glass transition temperature of electrolytes and was found to vary between – 50.8 and –62.4 ºC. The electrolyte composition that supports the maximum room temperature conductivity of this electrolyte system is n = 5 (2.10×10-5 S cm-1 at 25 ºC). The electrochemical stability domain of the sample with n = 5 spans about 5 V measured against a Li/Li+ reference.
