Combining the abundance and inexpensiveness of their constituent elements with their atomic dispersion, atomically dispersed Fe−N−C catalysts represent the most promising alternative to precious-metal-based materials in proton Exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. Due to the high temperatures involved in their synthesis and the sensitivity of Fe ions toward carbothermal reduction, current synthetic methods are intrinsically limited in type and amount of the desired, catalytically active Fe−N4 sites, and high active site densities have been out of reach (dilemma of Fe−N−C catalysts). We herein identify a paradigm change in the synthesis of Fe−N−C catalysts arising from the developments of other M−N−C single-atom catalysts. Supported by DFT calculations we propose fundamental principles for the synthesis of M−N−C materials. We further exploit the proposed principles in a novel synthetic strategy to surpass the dilemma of Fe−N−C catalysts. The selective formation of tetrapyrrolic Zn−N4 sites in a tailor-made Zn−N−C material is utilized as an active-site imprint for the preparation of a corresponding Fe−N−C catalyst.
By successive low- and high-temperature ion exchange reactions, we obtain a phase-pure Fe−N−C catalyst, with a high loading of atomically dispersed Fe (>3 wt %). Moreover, the catalyst is entirely composed of tetrapyrrolic Fe−N4 sites. The density of tetrapyrrolic Fe−N4 sites is more than six times as high as for previously reported tetrapyrrolic single-site Fe−N−C fuel cell catalysts.
Das Verhalten von Batteriezellen bei Beschädigung ist von hoher Bedeutung für die Einschätzung der Sicherheit bei Transport, Lagerung sowie Verwendung. Vor allem im Zusammenhang mit dem exponentiell wachsenden Sektor der Lithium-Batterien kam es in der Vergangenheit immer wieder zu kritischen Vorfällen. Hierbei haben Lithium-Metall-Batterien, welche elementares Lithium enthalten, den Ruf besonders gefährlich zu sein. Um dieses Thema bewerten zu können, werden im Vortrag die Unterschiede zwischen Lithium-Ionen- und Lithium-Metall-Batterien erläutert und experimentelle Studien des Verhaltens von aktuellen Systemen bei Schädigung verglichen. Darüber hinaus wird auf die Eigenschaften sowie das Sicherheitsverhalten von zukünftigen Lithium- bzw. Natrium-Batterien eingegangen.
Das Verhalten von Batteriezellen bei Beschädigung ist von hoher Bedeutung für die Einschätzung der Sicherheit bei Transport, Lagerung sowie Verwendung. Die Auswirkungen bei Schädigung hängen natürlich von der Art der Zelle, jedoch auch vom Ladezustand und der Schädigungsmethode ab.
Im Vortrag werden die Schädigungsversuche von Einzelzellen sowie Propagationsversuche an der BAM für verschieden Ladezustände präsentiert. Des Weiteren werden die aktuellen Vorgaben/Empfehlungen bezüglich der Lagerung von Lithium-Batterien kurz dargestellt. Darüber hinaus werden die neusten Entwicklung bezüglich der Vorgaben für den Transports von Natrium-Ionen-Batterien vorgestellt und diskutiert.
Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are omnipresent in our daily lives. LIBs power our laptops and mobile phones, are the energy storage of choice for the electrification of vehicles, and play a vital role in the layout of the storage devices needed for the balancing of the grid.
Research groups all over the world work on the improvement of LIBs, e.g., an increase in energy density and cycle-life as well as a decrease in costs. In recent years, investigations concerning the LIB’s safety continuously gain importance, especially, pushed by incidents with electric vehicles. They are multiple levels at which safety measures can be implemented, i.e., material, cell, battery and system level. Accordingly, the behaviour of LIBs under abuse/misuse conditions are often investigated on those levels.
Here, we focus on the safety on cell level. Generally, the abuse/misuse leads to an increase in heat in the cell at worst triggering a chain of exothermic reactions. Hence, the cell’s temperature rapidly increases leading to the so-called thermal runaway (TR) possibly accompanied by flames and/or explosion of the cell. Herein, different hazardous features during the TR of different commercial cells are analysed such as temperature, flames, projectiles and toxic gases. In order to gain further insights on the parameters influencing the TR, different type of initiation modes, e.g., external heating, overcharging, nail penetration and external short circuiting are utilized. Moreover, the state of charges (SOCs) are varied to differ the amount of electrical energy present in the cells.
Next to the characteristic of the TR of a single cell, the investigation of the propagation of the TR from one cell to another is an important parameter, as a battery is usually composed of multiple cells. Due to the close packaging of the single cells, the TR of one cell is often able to initiate the TR of the surrounding cells, finally, causing the TR of the whole battery. Herein, the propagation ability is studied depending on the cell type and SOC. Finally, the results will be used to formulate (cell specific) conditions for a safe transport of LIBs. Moreover, the gained knowledge can support the development of advanced measures to increase the safety on cell level in the future.
In den von der BAM anerkannten Prüfstellen kommen derzeit unterschiedliche Methoden der Schüttwinkelmessung zum Einsatz. Es ist unklar, welche dieser Methoden sich prinzipiell für welche Füllgüter eignen. Daher werden derzeit systematische Untersuchungen an der BAM durchgeführt, die im folgenden vorgestellt werden.
The leaks of dangerous goods from actually intact bags detected in the years 2018 to 2020 tend to be at an almost constant high level. These releases of powdery or granular dangerous goods represent violations of the sift-proofness required in the dangerous goods regulations. This article first analyzes the causes. The components of the bags that are affected by leaks are micro-perforations, joins and closures, in particular internal sleeve valves. A distinction must be made between bags closed in conformity with or contrary to the manufacturer's instructions. The particle release is determined by a number of influencing factors of the filling substance, the packaging and other boundary conditions. Therefore, a comprehensive test concept is developed in this work, which takes all these factors into account. The application of this test concept facilitates the planning of the test setup and the experiments. On this basis, the complex mechanisms involved in the release of solid substances can be systematically investigated in the test laboratory. To prevent releases of powdery or granular substances from intact bags, it is necessary that the user has access to the closing instructions and the relevant properties of the test substance used for the design type approval. Further experimental investigations are needed to assess whether filling substances change their properties during transport and whether this enables them to escape.
