Improving the Tapped Density of the Cathode Material to make a Lithium-ion Battery Hold More Energy
Tapped density is one of two important physical properties of electrode materials and affects the energy density of a Li-ion battery (LIB). The other important physical property is the particle size distribution which provides the appropriate information to optimize the grinding parameters during pr...
Determining the Rheological Behavior of Sucrose Solution Using the BeNano 180 Zeta
This application note utilized dynamic light scattering microrheology to measure the mean square displacements (MSD) of tracer particles in the solutions and obtain rheological information. Sucrose samples with varying concentrations were measured, and viscoelastic properties and complex viscosity w...
Investigating the Particle Size, Molecular Weight and Thermal Denaturation of Lysozyme
Lysozyme is a commonly used enzyme for lysing Gram-positive bacteria. The comparatively simple structure and low cost make it a popular model in much current biological research.
In this application note, with the BeNano 90 Zeta, the particle size of lysozyme was measured and the molecular weight of...
