These results showed that the inhibition efficiency of Na-CMC increased with increasing the inhibitor concentration. Potentiodynamic polarization studies revealed that the Na-CMC was a mixed type inhibitor in 1.0 mol·L-1 HCl. The adsorption of the inhibitor on mild steel surface has been found to obey the Langmuir isotherm. The effect of temperature on the corrosion behavior of mild steel in 1.0 mol·L-1 HCl with addition of 0.04% of Na-CMC has been studied in the temperature range of 298-328 K. The associated apparent activation energy (E*a ) of corrosion reaction has been determined. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been applied to investigate the surface morphology of mild steel in the absence and presence of the inhibitor molecules.展开更多

In this paper, NCBD was prepared using sodium carboxymethyl cellulose （CMC） as dispersant. Effects of CMC viscosity, ultrasonic time and oxidation with hydrogen peroxide on carbon black （CB） particle size were discussed. The results showed that CB particle size decreased by mechanical agitation while it Increased by ultrasonic with the increase of CMC viscosity. Uitrasonk is a more effective method to disperse CB particles than that of mechanical agitation. CB particle size lbviously decreased with itcreasing ultrasonic time and arrived at about 160 nm for 60min.In addition,oxidation with 2 mol/L of H2O2 and 0.2wt% of CMC300 reduced CB particle size to 160nm at 90℃ for 2.5h.展开更多

Despite promising advantages, the wide use of silicon anodes in LIBs is highly hindered by their fast capacity fading and low Coulombic efficiency arising from their substantial volumetric variation(>300%). Herein, we report a novel aqueous hybrid gel binder for silicon anodes via crosslinking sodium carboxymethyl cellulose(NaCMC) by an inorganic crosslinker-sodium borate. Not only this gel polymer binder can chemically bond to silicon nanoparticle, but also the deformable framework of this crosslinked binder is capable of maintaining electrode integrity, thus buffering dramatic volume change of silicon. Consequently, the silicon anode with this gel binder exhibits good cycle life(1211.5 mAh/g after 600 cycles) and high initial Coulombic efficiency(88.95%).展开更多
