With the recent development of electric vehicles, the demands of Lithium-ion batteries and advanced battery technologies are growing. Today, Lithium-ion batteries mainly use liquid electrolyte, which contains organic compounds such as dimethyl carbonate and ethylene carbonate as solvents for the Lithium salts. Thermal runaway is a complex process which can involve electrolyte decomposition and subsequent venting of combustible gases that could be readily ignited when mixed with air, leading to pronounced heat release from the combustion of the mixture. The chemical behavior of electrolyte during thermal runaway of Lithium-ion batteries is a critical process and needs to be part of thermal runaway modeling. Well validated, small size chemical kinetic mechanisms of the electrolyte components are required to describe this process in CFD simulations. In this work, sub-mechanisms of dimethyl carbonate and ethylene carbonate were developed and adopted in Ansys Model Fuel Library (MFL).
Polyurethane foams (PUF) are a class of cellular polymers with a large range of applications. It is possible to control some properties of PUF by adjusting some chemicals, aiming to reach the best performance with lower cost, weight and process easiest. On the same way, graphene and its derivatives may be used for the modification of PUF, aiming to improve many properties. Depending on the dispersion technique, increases in mechanical, dynamical mechanical, thermal and acoustical properties may be reached, even when a low content of the nanomaterial is employed. This brief review presents some techniques used for the dispersion and incorporation of graphene and its derivatives into PUF, focusing on the enhancement of acoustical applications. Some techniques such as mechanical stirring, sonication and layer-by-layer are presented. It was observed that depending on the techniques, a real and significant difference was observed in some properties, mainly in acoustical
