Until now the shaping for green ceramic balls is still conducted by handwork. In this paper, a new shaping model for green ceramic balls was designed. In the new model, two grinding wheels with the same generator line as circular arc are mounted on symmetry, and their axes are parallel. The green ball can be put in the enveloping space formed by the two grinding wheels. The radius of generator line must be equal to or slightly greater than the final radius of the green balls, which can ensure that an ideal sphere can be enveloped by the generator of grinding wheel as grinding the green body surface with the wheels. One of the two wheels rotates in upward direction at high speed v 1, conversely, the other wheel rotates in downward direction at low speed v 2, and a cluster of compressed air is exerted on the green ball above for canceling out the force acting upon the green ball created by the action of the grinding wheel revolving at high speed and avoiding that the green ball jumps off its station. Because of the randomness of the distributions of abrasive grains on the surface of grinding wheels, the size and shape of the abrasive grains, and the posture of green body when falling into the grinding space, the values and directions of the resultant forces and torques exerted on the body, caused by the tow wheels, are random, the rotation of green body is irregular under the actions of the compressed air and the wheels. The irregularity of rotation can ensure an ideal sphere in theory. Experiment researches indicate that the new shaping model can improve the spherical deviations and the size distribution of the green ceramic balls, raise the production, and reduce the costs. The spherical deviations can be improved to 0.04 mm easily. It can be observed by SEM that there is no crack in the surface of sintered ceramic balls shaped with the new model in green blank.展开更多

XRD and TEM measurements revealed that the as-prepared LiFePO4 powder have a homogeneous Olivine structure and a uniform size distribution of ca. 50 nm. Based on this material, a LiFePO4/C composite was prepared and used for the cathode material of Li-ion batteries. The charge-discharge experiments demonstrated that the LiFePO4/C composite material has a high capacity of 132 mAh/g at 0.1 C and a quite highrate capability of 95 mAh/g at 1 C. This new ball-milling method may provide a completely green synthetic route for preparing the materials of this type cost-effectively and in large volume.展开更多
