Determination of kinetic parameters in the systems Li0.5La0.5TiO3 and Li0.5La0.5TiO3/PANI by GITT (Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique)

Full text: Oxides belonging to the family Li3xLa2/3-xTiO3 have been reported as materials of a high Ionic conductivity and a poor electronic conductivity at room temperature. The combination of these materials with other polymer in nature, such as polyaniline (PANI), of proven electronic properties, allows to obtain potentially applicable material in rechargeable Li. In this context the study of diffusive phenomena are of vital importance. A technical electrochemistry of intermittent rating (GITT), which combines state transient measurements and stationary, for the calculation of kinetic parameters in the Li0.5La0.5TiO3 system and a composite comprising this oxide and PANI (Li0.5La0.5TiO3/PANI) in its conductive phase (emeraldine) is used in this work. Interesting considerations concerning shows the calculation of the numbers of ionic and electronic transport, necessary for the determination of coefficients of electronic dissemination. (author)
