| Molten Salt Preparation of Nanostructured Materials for Energy Applications Ali Reza Kamali1; 1ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS RESEARCH CENTRE (E2MC), SCHOOL OF METALLURGY, NORTHEASTERN UNIVERSITY, Shenyang 110819, China; PAPER: 417/Battery/Invited (Oral) SCHEDULED: 18:15/Fri. 25 Oct. 2019/Coralino ABSTRACT: Molten salts are very promising fluids for their various properties, and have historically been used for industrial production of metals such as aluminum with an annual production of more than 60 million tons. During the recent 20 years, new generations of molten salt technologies have been developed through breakthrough in research. These technologies are very attractive since they offer scalable techniques for green and/or efficient production of advanced materials from metals and nanodiamonds to functional nanostructures for many high-value applications. In this talk, the molten salt preparation of graphene and graphene-based composites and their applications in energy storage devices are discussed. Particular attention will be paid to our recent experimental studies on facile preparation of high quality carbon nanostructures, and their composites for use as the electrode materials of supercapacitors and lithium ion batteries.
