Electrochemical behavior of a composite material containing 3D-structured diatom biosilica
Publikacja3D-structured diatom biosilica mixed with conducting carbon black was investigated as an active electrode material for lithium-ion batteries. Diatom biosilica was obtained by cultivation of the selected diatom species under laboratory conditions. Several instrumental techniques (XRD, FTIR, Raman, SEM-EDX, TGA) were used to characterize the physicochemical properties of applied biosilica. It was evidenced that the prepared new composite...

Diatoms Biomass as a Joint Source of Biosilica and Carbon for Lithium-Ion Battery Anodes
PublikacjaThe biomass of one type cultivated diatoms (Pseudostaurosira trainorii), being a source of 3D-stuctured biosilica and organic matter—the source of carbon, was thermally processed to become an electroactive material in a potential range adequate to become an anode in lithium ion batteries. Carbonized material was characterized by means of selected solid-state physics techniques (XRD, Raman, TGA). It was shown that the pyrolysis...

Biosilica from sea water diatoms algae—electrochemical impedance spectroscopy study
PublikacjaHere, we report on an electrochemical impedance study of silica of organic origin as an active electrode material. The electrode material obtained from carbonized marine biomass containing nanoporous diatoms has been characterised by means of XRD, IR, SEM and EIS. Dif- ferent kinds of crystallographic phases of silica as a result of thermal treatment have been found. The electrode is electrochemically stable during subsequent cyclic...
