Development of negative electrodes for lithium-ions batteries
Drahokoupil, Petr ; Libich, Jiří (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
This thesis deals with lithiation of negative electrode li-ion batteries. In this thesis is used several electrode materials: carbon, FeCl3, lithiated carbon electrodes and silicon carbide. Reduction of irreversible capacity lithium-ion batteries leads to increased capacity and also we can use new materials as a positive electrode. Thesis deals with the differences in the properties of materials using lithiation and their use in practice

Influence of conductive ceramics on the life of lead acid batteries
Tobolák, Jakub ; Vaněk, Jiří (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This thesis is focused on lead-acid batteries used in hybrid electric vehicles. These cells work in specific conditions, particularly under partial charge referred to as PSOC. This fact is responsible for the premature loss of capacity cell lead-acid batteries and their short lifetime. The task of this thesis is to examine the effect of conductive ceramics as possible additives to the negative electrode active materials of lead-acid battery cells operating in a PSOC, in order to prolong their life.

Negative lead-acid battery electrode for hybrid electric vehicles
Dvořáček, Daniel ; Křivík, Petr (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
The thesis briefly discusses the issue of electrochemical power sources, especially with a focus on lead-acid batteries operating in modes that are typical of hybrid electric vehicles. The theoretical part of the thesis should be a good basis for the subsequent practical part, in which several experimental electrodes and their parameters will be performed and evaluated. The output of the practical part will be conclusions regarding the influence of different variants of modified carbon used as an additive in the active material of the negative electrode on the capacity and life of cells

Causes of Premature Capacity Loss of Lead-Acid Accumulators Operating in PSoC Mode in Hybrid Electric Vehicles
Bilko, Radek ; Jareš, Petr (referee) ; Dostál, Zdeněk (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This thesis is completion of whole stage of researches and it is a result of existing need of increase efficiency, utilization rate and service life of lead acid batteries VRLA planned for utilization in hybrid electric vehicles in mode of partial state-of-charge PSoC. During the application of mode PSoC at lead acid battery occurs irreversible sulfation of negative electrodes and thus to loss their charging capability. This phenomenon, according to the latest trend called PCL3, isn´t connected with subsequently referred effects PCL1, PCL2, show up on positive electrodes. Result of this thesis is finding a new types of additives, determine their optimum amount and size in such a way that innovated composition of negative active materials be able to resist sulfation of negative electrode during operation in mode PSoC. Part of the effort to clarify actions ongoing on negative active material and causes non-returnable sulfation electrodes is also monitoring of structural changes electrode active material by using environmental scanning electron microscope, which helped to clarify processes related with loss of capacity in mode PSoC. Special attention during reserches was focused on study of the properties contact layers between collector and electrodes active material and itself active materials lead-acid battery druring exploitation. There were gain new information about influence repeated cycling of (charging, discharging) the critical area of the electrodes. Measurements was carried out on specially prepared experimental electrodes DC Difference Method, this enabled obtain data in situ.

Microscopic Observations of Active Mass Structures of the Negative Electrode of a Lead-Acid Battery
Zimáková, Jana ; Dostál, Zdeněk (referee) ; Kohout,, Jan (referee) ; Bača, Petr (advisor)
This doctoral dissertation deals with the study of the effect of additives on the properties of the negative electrode of a lead-acid battery. The work focuses on the investigation of the additive/base material interface for the negative electrode (so-called active mass) using atomic force microscopy (AFM). A lead sheet was used as the base material, on which the given additive was applied. The effects of carbon, TiO2, glass fibers and Indulin AT were specifically investigated. The negative electrode was cycled by a potentiostat in a defined manner and the morphology of the electrode surface was continuously scanned by AFM. This created a time sequence of images on which events on the surface of the electrode during its charging/discharging were captured. These records serve to better understand the effect of additives on the resulting properties of constructed lead-acid cells, specifically on the ability to form or dissolve PbSO4 crystals, which are formed during cell discharge and are responsible for the decrease in total capacity - gradual surface sulfation.
