Optimization Of Electroless Silver Plating Process On Fabric Surface Without Activation And Sensitization, Bo Lian Wang, Ya Ping Zhao, Zai Sheng Cai
Journal of Electrochemistry
Silver was deposited homogeneously on the surface of polyamide fabric by electroless plating without activation and sensitization. The electroless silver plating process was optimized with the orthogonal array testing strategy. It is found that the optimum conditions are the electroless plating time of 50 min with the concentrations of silver nitrate, sodium hydroxide and ammonium hydroxide being 14 g·L-1, 6 g·L-1 and 130 mL·L-1, respectively. The surface morphologies, compositions, and phases of fabric samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry (SEM-EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD). The wear-resisting property was tested by friction fastness …

Synthesis Of Lifepo4/C Cathode By Sol-Gel And Calcining Method With Chitosan Monomer, Jia Xu, Yan-Yan Wang, Rui Wang, Bo Wang, Yue Pan, Dian-Xue Cao, Gui-Ling Wang
Journal of Electrochemistry
The LiFePO4/C cathode materials for Li-ion battery were synthesized by sol-gel and calcining method using chitosan monomer as a carbon source and a gelating agent. The structures and morphologies were characterized by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrochemical performance was investigated by the galvanostatic charge–discharge test. When the molar ratios between chitosan monomer and LiFePO4 were 1:1.2, the LiFePO4/C cathode calcined at 600 oC showed the best performance. The particle sizes ranged 200 ～ 400 nm. The initial discharge capacity of 155 mAh.g-1 was achieved at room temperature …
