Novel Electrolytes For Use In New And Improved Batteries: An Nmr Study, Marc B. Berman Feb 2016

Novel Electrolytes For Use In New And Improved Batteries: An Nmr Study, Marc B. Berman

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This thesis focuses on the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in order to study materials for use as electrolytes in batteries. The details of four projects are described in this thesis as well as a brief theoretical background of NMR. Structural and dynamics properties were determined using several NMR techniques such as static, MAS, PFG diffusion, and relaxation to understand microscopic and macroscopic properties of the materials described within. Nuclei investigate were 1H, 2H, 7Li, 13C, 19F, 23Na, and 27Al. The first project focuses on an exciting new material to be used as a solid electrolyte membrane. T. …
