SYNERGISTIC ENHANCEMENT OF LI-AIR BATTERY CAPACITY USING CNC/MWCNT COMPOSITES
There is a clear need to increase energy densities of batteries for use in electric vehicles and airplanes. Using Li-O2 is a solution with theoretical energy densities close to 3500( Wh/Kg), cheap to manufacture as carbon is the cathode material used instead of costly metals as is the case with Li-ion batteries. Carbon-Nano-tube(CNT) is the state of...
