In combination with Metrohm Inline Dilution (MIDT), this system makes sure that the ionic concentration of the solution is ideal for the subsequent analysis by IC. Moreover, by including inline pH ...

Normally, when liquids solidify, their molecules become locked in place, making it much harder for ions to move and leading ...

A collaborative investigation has revealed new insight into how room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) conduct electricity, which may have a great potential impact for the future of energy storage.

A porous polymer membrane separates the anode and the cathode to prevent a short circuit. The electrolyte is the final component, usually a conductive salt solution, that facilitates the transport of ...

Oxide ion conductors used in solid-state fuel cells often fail to reach full potential when operating at temperatures below 500 degrees Celsius, but researchers have recently found a solution to this ...

The conductivity apparatus is a display of ten panels of diodes which light up from left to right with increasing degrees of conductivity of the solutions, and is very effective in the lecture setting ...

Lithium-ion batteries provide the energy source for the device displaying these words. These batteries play a crucial role in powering a wide range of technology in the modern world, including phones, ...

When it comes to efficiency, silicon solar cells set standards. But especially for photovoltaic elements with particularly high efficiencies, silicon production is both complex and expensive.

New research shows the key role of thermal fluctuations in sustaining the 'relay race' of charges needed to maintain electrical current in room temperature ionic liquids. A collaborative investigation ...

Tokyo Tech researchers demonstrated high conductivity and stability in bismuth-containing Sillén oxyhalides with triple fluorite-like layers (e.g. 10 mS/cm at 431 o C; 204 times higher conductivity ...
