Analysing Battolyser Electrodes in Operation with X-ray and Neutron Powder Diffraction

The battolyser concept is based on an old fashioned nickel iron battery, consisting of a positive nickel(oxy) hydroxide electrode and negative iron (hydroxide) electrode. Research has been performed on the structural changes of the nickel and iron electrode upon charge and discharge. A lot of research can be found for the nickel electrode, but...

Localization of ferrocene in NaY zeolite by powder x-ray and neutron diffraction

We study the inclusion of the metallocene ferrocene Fe(C5H5)2 molecules in the supercages of NaY zeolite. To find the exact location of the ferrocene molecules within the supercages we perform neutron and powder x-ray diffraction on bare NaY zeolite, and on NaY zeolite loaded with one or two ferrocene molecules per supercage. Using the...
