Abstract
The main goal of this research is to develop carbon nanostructures for next generation energy storage applications. The tailored morphology of the end-of-life tire rubber with a sulfonation process followed by pyrolysis yielded a high-quality nanostructured carbon and the applicability of these hard carbons was demonstrated in energy storage applications. We will report on our recent neutron studies on the surface chemistry of the carbon material, vibrational spectroscopy of the molecular structure, chemical bonding such as C-H bonding, and intermolecular interactions of the carbon materials. In addition, we will also report our recent success with tire-derived carbon with either tin oxide or antimony/antimony oxide based composites as a low-cost, environmentally benign, and high capacity anode material for energy storage applications.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSMThe research was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, Materials Sciences and Engineering Division.
