Energy Storage - Developing and Improving Lithium Ion Batteries
Microscopy Solutions - With demand for renewable energy sources and electric vehicles continuing to rise, there is an increasing need for reliable, high-capacity energy storage. Lithium-ion batteries (LIB) are ideal for this purpose but understanding the microstructural features and in particular the behavior of the light element Lithium is necessary to influence battery performance. JEOL has developed an air-isolated microscopy workflow that is proving its value in advanced battery research and production today.
NMR Solutions - NMR is one of the few analytical methods that can directly observe Li ions and is a powerful tool for characterizing local structure and ion dynamics of LIB materials. JEOL solutions include solid-state NMR, in-situ NMR, and diffusion NMR with techniques tailored for the materials to be analyzed.
Petroleum Analysis – Detecting Hydrocarbons
Mass Spectrometry Solutions - For petroleum and petrochemical analyses, JEOL’s new AccuTOF™ GC-Alpha gas chromatograph, a high-resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometer (GC-HRTOFMS) is capable of differentiating various classes of hydrocarbons by using their exact masses. Additionally, optional soft ionization methods can be used for unambiguous detection of hydrocarbon molecular ions. JEOL’s new GCHRTOFMS simultaneously accomplishes high mass-resolution analysis, high mass accuracy, and high-speed data acquisition, satisfying all your needs for petroleum and petrochemical analyses.
