Development of novel cathode materials based on MWCNT for energy storage/conversion devices. Paper presented at the Springer Proceedings in Physics.9.78E+12930898910.1007/978-3-319-29096-6_47https://kr.cup.edu.in/handle/32116/227In Chap. 1, already available technology for energy storage solutions like capacitors, lead acid batteries, compressed air energy storage, flywheels has been discussed in order to compare their energy and power densities. Emphasis has been laid on Rechargeable Lithium ion Battery (Li-ion). Various materials which are already explored and used as cathode of battery has also been discussed with their merits and demerits. Further introduction of prepared orthosilicate material with used conductive additive Multiwalled carbon nano tube (MWCNT) has also given. In Chap. 2, methodology used to prepare respective Li2MnFeSiO4 material and its composite with MWCNT has been discussed in detail. Further, in order to validate its electrochemical application, different steps of cell assembly of Lithium half cell fabrication has also been discussed. Chapter 3 comprises of results obtained using standard Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). Effect of used MWCNT on its morphology has been discussed in this chapter. A.C Impedance spectroscopy has been used to study variation in conductivity with respect to bared material. Possible reasons for increased conductivity with morphology has also been discussed in discussion. Chapter 4 includes conclusions drawn from mentioned results. This chapter summarizes measured conductivity values with different concentrations of MWCNT. Improved conductivity with respect to bared orthosilicate material has been pointed in this chapter. ?
