Articles Worth Reading Home News & Articles Articles Worth Reading New Lithium-Sulphur Battery; Higher Performance, Cheaper And Greener ​ ​ Research interests: battery, energy storage systems, climate change, sustainable manufacturing, environmental engineering, metal composites, materials synthesis, lithium-sulphur batteries, flow batteries, supercapacitors, and lithium-ion capacitors Dr Mahdokht Shaibani was born in Shiraz, Iran. She spent most of her childhood in her grandparent’s house, where she found some of her favourite books (Jules Verne and Isaac Asimov) “The practicality of the science fiction stories in those books and the awareness of Verne and Asimov of the theoretical limitations of the fiction technologies they wrote about contributed a lot in the engineer that I am today”. ​ From young age, Mahdokht knew the key to improving our everyday technologies was linked to new materials or new processing techniques to make available materials perform better. That’s why she followed a material engineering degree. Mahdokht holds a bachelor’s in Materials Engineering from Shiraz University and a master’s in Materials Engineering from University of Tehran. With a metallurgy background, she didn’t suspect she would ever join the energy sector and didn’t work on energy-storage materials or devices until her PhD. “I was offered scholarships with different universities and on subjects from computational studies to pharmaceuticals and energy storage. I wanted to work on something that the general public could relate to and have an immediate impact on their daily lives. That’s why I choose the PhD project at Monash”. Mahdokht completed a PhD at Monash in 2017, in collaboration with CSIRO, on advanced electrochemical energy storage devices and carbon-based supercapacitors. She immediately discovered she truly enjoyed improving the performance metrics of batteries. “I choose to work on lithium sulphur battery (Li-S) as there is no limit in achieving better performance or using more sensible materials, or more practical designs. I was extremely lucky to work under amazing supervision: Prof Mainak Majumder (Monash Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering) is a globally renowned scientist, who has had an exceptional influence on my career. I learned that if we want our fundamental discoveries to be translated to real life environment from industry to market, practicality should always be in the experimental design. I’m still learning about leadership skills from Australia’s influential science leader A/Prof Matthew Hill (Monash and CSIRO) and am further developing my scientific thinking and reasoning skills from the discussions with former co-supervisor Dr Tony Hollenkamp (CSIRO)”. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ From left to right: A/Prof Matthew Hill, Dr Mahdokht Shaibani and Prof Mainak Majumder (Photo credits Monash University) ​ ​ Her PhD was followed by postdoctoral research. That’s when she discovered how to create the most efficient Li-S battery. “In the final year of my PhD, I turned a part of my thesis into a patent for a new design of battery. The company invested in the research and helped to fund my research fellowship and the establishment of a battery prototyping lab at Monash University . Back then, it was only me, Matt and Mainak. Now, we have 4 PhD students, Postdocs, and we are moving towards the commercialisation project of the new Li-S battery”. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Graph listing the theoretical energy density of some currently used batteries such as Li-ion and some of the currently explored ones such as Li-S (Dr Mahdokht Shaibani). ​ ​ What are the differences between Lithium-ion batteries (Li-ion) and Lithium sulphur (Li-S) batteries? For Mahdokht, there are 3 main differences: the first one is the performance – all sectors want batteries with more power and a better cycle life. Li-S battery offers 4 to 5 times improvement compared to Li-ion in the energy density (on paper), so we can expect 2 or 3 times increase in the energy density (in practice). The second difference is material availability and pricing – certain materials are easily available; others are getting scarce making them expensive and unreliable in terms of exploitation. With Li-ion battery, there are ethical concerns around the sourcing of the materials required, such as Cobalt (which is predicted to be more difficult to source in the future). In comparison, Li-S batteries use lithium and sulphur electrodes, so do not require rare or heavy metals and sulphur can be found pretty much anywhere on earth which make it inexpensive (US$100 per tonne). Also, our patented electrode processing for Li-S batteries (PCT/AU2019/051239 ) is completely water-based, with no need for toxic hazardous solvents often used in Li-ion battery manufacturing. The third difference is the cost of production of Li-S batteries estimated to be 4 to 8 times less than Li-ion battery. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Monash University Lithium-sulphur battery prototype (Dr Mahdokht Shaibani). ​ ​ Dr Mahdokht Shaibani is leading the scale-up manufacturing and commercialisation lithium-sulphur battery project between diverse research, industry, and R&D partners. “Since day one, I knew that no manufacturer was going to shut-down their manufacturing line and create a new one for me. We needed to use the same fabrication method used in the battery industry and the same commercially available materials as the price was going to be a governing factor. As material scientist, I am not as excited to synthesise the material, because even if the device the battery works perfectly fine, the scale-up of that synthesis could take years and may never be cost-effective”. ​ The Lithium-sulphur battery prototypes built with the researchers' electrodes maintain 99 percent efficiency for over 200 charging cycles. The next prototypes have been successfully fabricated by German R&D partners Fraunhofer Institute for Material and Beam Technology. The team is also wanting to explore the use of Li-S batteries for more sustainable and clean transportation and grid storage. Last year in June, they teamed up with Monash Motorsport to explore the use of Li-S batteries in electric vehicles. Mahdokht mentions that "today’s EV batteries are an important part of the total EV cost (33% to 57% depending on the car) and EV weight (20% to 25%). Lighter batteries would result in higher EV range; and a low-cost lighter battery means the EV manufactures could, if interested, explore new car concepts like allocating more car space to the battery pack without having cost and weight concerns!". ​ Everything is moving towards being battery-powered, portable electronics, smart watch, cell phones, indispensable devices we use in our daily lives. Mahdokht mentions “Hunger for energy has reached a scary level, not for the users but for the players of the energy sector. Who doesn’t want to drive an E.V? Who doesn’t want to have a big battery to their residential solar plan to save on electricity bills? It is a critical time to explore alternative battery technologies. What I would like to see in the next years is more collaboration between governments, industries and universities to lead the change and take major steps towards cleaner batteries!" ​ For further information: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mahdokht-shaibani-29868440/?originalSubdomain=au ​ Scientific Paper: Mahdokht Shaibani, Meysam Sharifzadeh Mirshekarloo, Ruhani Singh, Christopher D.

Home Products Kinetics and Spectroscopy SFM Series Product Overview SFM-2000, SFM-3000, SFM-4000 Stopped-flow ​ A versatile stopped-flow mixing system designed to offer extreme precision as well as minimize the consumption of often expensive samples. ​ A range of single, double or triple stopped-flow mixing systems designed to ensure the shortest possible dead time. Request a quote The stopped-flow mixing system offering accuracy, precision, and versatility. A stopped-flow mixing system is an essential instrument for rapid kinetics investigations. A complete stopped-flow instrument is a mixing device coupled to a detection system. Two, three or four sample solutions are rapidly mixed and injected into an observation cell. When the flow is stopped, the kinetics are recorded with a detector chosen according to the chemical properties of the solutions and the information of interest (e.g. particle size, the environment of fluorophore, chromophore). ​ The SFM-4000 stopped-flow series is available for single, double or triple mixing applications (two reaction steps or one reaction step and one concentration change step before the final observed reaction). The SFM-4000 stopped-flow family has been designed to ensure the shortest possible dead time the highest precision and to minimize sample consumption as much as possible. ​ Applications include protein folding/refolding, protein-protein interactions, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET), ligand binding, water and ion transport in vesicles and membranes, enzyme/substrate reactions, coordination reactions in inorganic chemistry, as well as identification or capture of intermediates, and more. Virtually any application with a timescale in the range of 0.5 ms. to minutes is observable by our stopped-flow systems. The same stopped-flow mixers can be used with chemical quench or freeze quench accessories to collect time point samples for EPR, NMR, Mossbauer, or GC/MS analysis when the reaction has no appropriate optical signature. Free mixing ratio change. Mixing ratios can be freely changed by the user because our stopped-flow mixers use independent stepping motor technology. This technology provides microliter precision and accuracy at all flow rates, over a wide viscosity, temperature, and mixing ratio range. The user has a full control of volume, speed and mixing ratio from within Biokine software. A series of shots at various concentration can be programmed and run quickly without refilling or changing syringes. Advanced Berger-Ball technology mixers are used to provide the best turbulent mixing over the widest range of flow conditions. ​ Short dead time. With our SFM series technology, it is possible to achieve sub-microsecond dead times for following kinetics with a rate constant up to 3500 s-1. The standard dead time reachable by our SFM-4000 family systems is 700 µs, and 200µs is possible using the optional microcuvette for the most demanding applications. This extremely low dead time is achievable thanks to the precision drive mechanism and the quality of the stop mechanism. Quench flow and freeze quench applications have minimum ageing times of 2 ms. ​ Stopped-flow Modularity. The stopped-flow is easily adaptable to a wide variety of rapid mixing techniques and applications. The unique design is based on open access to the mixing chamber and the use of independent stepping motor technology. Therefore, the stopped-flow system can be switched from optical stopped-flow to chemical quench-flow, to freeze quench, to cryo stopped-flow to a beamline, to laboratory designed optical benches, all in minutes, with off the shelf options. A range of off-the-shelf accessories enables you to adapt the SFM-series to your specific needs in the lab, without buying a complete new system. Additionally, our R&D team provides special development services to customize the stopped-flow system and produce bespoke systems to meet your specific needs and applications. SFM Series brochure

Home Products Kinetics and Spectroscopy QFM-4000 Request a quote Product Overview QFM-4000 ​ Microvolume quench flow. ​ A unique design enables the QFM-4000 to trap and identify reaction intermediates. The device is also commonly used for analysing enzymatic reactionq, DNA cleavage or single turnover reactions. Quench-Flow. Quench-flow is a kinetic technique where a reaction is initiated by mixing two samples. The reaction ages in a delay line before being stopped after a user-defined ageing time, by mixing with a solution called the quencher. The aged solution is then collected at the exit of the quench-flow and is analyzed by external analytical methods. ​ Quench-flow is generally used to trap and identify reaction intermediates and to understand complex reaction mechanisms. It is also widely used for analyzing enzymatic reactions, DNA cleavage or single turnover reactions. ​ Microvolume quench-flow. Microvolume operation is now an absolute requirement for most quench-flow users as samples become increasingly valuable. The QFM-4000 is designed to minimize all internal volumes. Not a single drop of precious material is lost in the priming lines. The sub-microvolume precision of the motor drives ensures a minimum sample consumption. Only 10µl of sample is required for a successful experiment, and a complete kinetics run dataset can be obtained starting from a 200µl stock. QFM-4000 brochure

The Directors Foreword. Shaping the future. Together. ​ Whilst my background is Electronic Engineering, it appears that my career was destined to be one involving Potentiostats and becoming involved in the science of Electrochemistry and more recent years Nuclear Physics. From repairing Potentiostats back in the mid 70’s, Sales and Support in the late 80’s and then establishing ProDigital in 1996. The Electrochemistry industry had grown so much, that in 2004, I established ProDigitek to exclusively focus on the Scientific Instruments Sector and specializing in niche measurement systems for Electrochemical applications. Originally PAR, Solartron and Biologic, it was Biologic that ultimately became the star. In more recent years another division, CAEN instruments who are the Biologic equivalent in Nuclear Physics instrumentation. I never realised that the combination of Electronic Engineering skills and the passion for science would be such a remarkable combination. Over 36 years, I was absorbed in the world of Electrochemistry and became fascinated by the Science and those that used our Instruments. In the early days circa 1988 when PC’s and software started to take over “manually used” Potentiostats with XY recorders and attended my first ACA Conference, researchers knew their science but PC’s and software were a bit of a mystery for many. That’s were I came in and started to train researchers in how to operate our software to obtain the data they needed to analyse. Today of course, most everyone is familiar with PC’s and Software In the meantime, and over the years, I had not only attended several conferences, seminars, training sessions and been exposed to real applications, learning about real objectives and how to achieve them, but also became proficient in trouble shooting common problems that occur in setting up experiments and the software that run our Biologic Potentiostats. Today I find myself enjoying the people I meet and the many friends I have made in the industry. Some are considered Demi Gods in their respective discipline by very young students today. It is how one realises that they are getting older. It has been most gratifying to see that all the knowledge I had acquired became useful and to be able to support and participate in the discipline of this Science. Not only to see how the present has been shaped from the past, but also how the combination of the collective skills can shape the future. Of course, it’s not just the knowledge acquired over the years that is here to support you, but I am also backed up some 15+ PhD’s employed by Biologic and about the same in CAEN. Today I find myself joyfully waking up looking for emails from those that need assistance. I believe, that unknowingly, the passion to be indefinitely helpful and supportive to our customers that was there since the day I was born, has shaped my path in life and continues to drive me to this very day. This is something I am passing onto our team here at ProDigitek. Please know that our Philosophy at ProDigitek is that we do NOT take your money and run. No matter what you purchase from us, you have a partner in your research and objectives that wants you and will do anything for you to SUCCEED. Vincent Stafrace Managing Director/Owner of Prodigitek

Home Products Electrochemistry SECM Accessories SKP Probes Probes Scanning Kelvin Probe (SKP) 500 and 150 µm SK Probe. Accessory designed for use in SKP (scanning kelvin probe) technique Request a quote In Scanning Kelvin Probe (SKP) the probe is used to measure the Volta potential of a sample compared to the probe material. The resolution of the SKP experiment is directly related to the diameter of the SKP probe used. All SKP probes offered by BioLogic are composed of tungsten wire shielded from parasitic noise by a metallic casing with an air gap. The probe is composed of a brass casing and a W (Tungsten) wire. Shielding of the signal is ensured by the air gap between the brass casing and the W wire. The SKP probe is available with two diameters of W wire: 500 µm and 150 µm. The 150 µm probe hence allows users to perform SKP measurements on much smaller features than the larger probe.
