Chemically-induced controlled growth of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
Trihalide perovskite nanocrystals have recently emerged as a new class of superior nanoscale semiconductors due to their outstanding optoelectronic properties. A family of all-inorganic CsPbX3 (X=Cl, Br, and I) perovskite ...
Simulation of trickle bed electrochemical reactor for hydrogen peroxide synthesis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
A 2D multi-physics, multi-component model was developed to analyze the effects of electrolyte concentration, flow rates and applied voltage on the performance of a trickle bed electrochemical reactor for hydrogen peroxide ...
Enhancing methanol electro-oxidation by double oxide incorporation with platinum on carbon nanotubes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)
Electro-oxidation of methanol was investigated on platinum catalyst supported on a double oxide nanocomposite support of tin oxide and carbon-doped titanium dioxide. The Pt-SnO2-C-/CNTs electro catalyst demonstrated about ...
Design of lithium air batteries with aqueous electrolyte
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Modeling of hierarchical cathode for lithium air batteries with aqueous electrolyte
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Lithium air batteries show a great promise as energy storage devices due to their high energy densities. Meanwhile, the exploiting of renewable energy sources stimulates the development of the batteries. However, currently, ...
In situ diesel desulfurization in divided-cell trickle bed electrochemical reactor
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Crude oil contains natural organic components such as organosulfur compounds, and these compounds largely remain in refined petroleum products such as ...
Deep eutectic solvents extraction of dibenzothiophene in model diesel
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)
Organic sulfur compounds in diesel fuel produce SOx during combustion in vehicles, leading to severe environmental pollution and causing health issues. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has established increasingly ...
Mesoporous and nanostructured metal oxides for adsorptive water treatment
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Sewage containing a certain amount of dyes, when discharged into the environment, will cause serious problems and diseases to the human body and pose a threat to the ecosystem. In addition, waste from large animal farms, ...
Developing new techniques to synthesize layered cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Many synthesis techniques like sol-gel, co-precipitation, hydrothermal, pyrolysis, and many more have been used to synthesize batteries' active electrode materials. High surface area cathode materials with smaller nanoparticles ...
Developing a novel method for making metal oxide nanocoatings for electrocatalysis applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
In this dissertation, a new and novel technique to synthesize conformal films of metal oxides on top of nanoscale substrates in different geometries such as carbon nanotubes, carbon black particles, and iron oxide nanoparticles ...
Investigation of glycerol-based sol-gel synthesis of Li1Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2 layered transition metal oxide cathodes for lithium-ion batteries
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 8/1/2024] Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the predominant portable power source today, and much attention is being given to the cathode materials of LIBs. LiNi1-y-zCoyMnzO2 (NCM) materials utilize the ...
Engineering of Ruddlesden-Popper planar faults in CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals for improved performance in light emitting devices
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
We developed a procedure that allowed triggering post-synthetic growth of CsPbBr3 perovskite nanocrystals (PNCs) via fusion. Pursuing the study, we discovered that the growth of CsPbBr3 PNCs was accompanied by the formation ...
