TPR of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles on Alumina – Understanding the Effects of Particle Size and Surface Chemistry

Temperature programmed reduction (TPR) is often used to characterize the reducibility of metal oxides. It is a fingerprint of the reduction of the material as a function of temperature. The peak areas and max peak temperatures gives information on the strength, heterogeneity, and quantity of the reducible species. TPR studies are often repeatable, but a […]

Physical Characterization Methods for Cathode Powders

Anytime a powder is used in a process for a specific purpose, its behavior is often predicted by physical properties of the powder.  Determining the physical properties of a cathode powder can be used to decide which properties are critical to the performance of the cathode, as well as the battery in which it is used.  A sample of lithium iron phosphate (LFP) powder was characterized to determine […]
