In-situ reaction of lithium amide or imide with manganese(IV) oxide
We request 3 days beam time on POLARIS for in-situ powder diffraction studies of the reactions of lithium amide or lithium imide with manganese(IV) oxide under flowing argon or... -
Formation and ammonia decomposition behaviour of lithium nitride hydride
Ammonia is seen as a key part of the transition to a sustainable energy economy, but needs decomposition catalysts to release its stored hydrogen. Lithium nitride-hydride... -
Towards the development of carbonitrides as novel two-stage regenerable reage...
We are examining a number of cobalt-molybdenum carbonitrides as possible catalysts for reactions that produce nitrogen-containing organic molecules. There is good evidence that... -
In-Situ Studies of Electrochemically Enhanced Performance in Perovskite Elect...
Recent studies in our laboratory have shown that a range of A-site deficient perovskite oxides, with carefully tuned chemical compositions, exhibit excellent properties when... -
In-situ studies of thermal electrochemical cells utilising transition metal s...
Thermal batteries are used in applications were high reliability is a key requirement. They can be stored for decades and activated in less than a second. Most contemporary... -
In-situ studies of amides with ammonia
The aim of this proposal is to determine that materials that are present in the ammoniation of amides. -
Understanding the decomposition of ammonia by lithium-calcium imide
Among light metal amide-imide catalysts for ammonia decomposition, lithium-calcium imide is the most promising candidate for practical application. Ex situ diffraction data... -
In-situ Battery Discharge Studies of Thermal Batteries using Transition Metal...
Thermal batteries find use in applications such as emergency power systems and ejector seats in aircraft. They operate at elevated temperatures of around 400-500 °C, where the...
