AB  - To contribute to the knowledge on the influence of synthesis procedure on the intercalation kinetics of lithium ions into phospho-olivines, LiFePO4/C composite samples (LFPC) were synthesized in two ways, the first one in a sol-gel procedure (SG), and the other in a solid-state reaction (SS). The X-ray diffractograms (XRD) of both samples overlapped with that of pure LiFePO4, taken from the crystallographic database. Scanning electron microscopy pictures indicated the high degree of interparticle sintering, which caused a considerable agglomerate growth. The results of potentiodynamic measurements in aqueous LiNO3 solution revealed that for SS sample, three times higher initial capacity from that of SG one, (amounting to 74 mAh g(-1) at 5 mV s(-1)). However, capacity fade on rising scan rate is much more expressed for SS sample than for SG one. We suggest that a different degree of material utilization due to the incomplete coverage of olivine particles by carbon explains this difference. The technique of separation of diffusion and capacitance currents was applied in a kinetic analysis, but it was shown to be inappropriate. We suggest the inapplicability of classic CV theory to the intercalation system accompanied by phase transition. Instead, a model of ohmic resistance determination of process kinetics was considered. LFPC-SS sample delivers three times larger capacity in LiNO3, amounting to 74 mAh g(-1) at 1 mV s(-1).

AB  - This paper presents a study on thermal stability of alkali activated slag (AAS) prepared from electric arc furnace slag (EAFS) using a mixture of alkaline sodium hydroxide and sodium silicate solutions. The samples were investigated by means of XRD, SEM, TG/DTA and porosity analysis. Compressive strengths of MS samples before and after exposure to elevated temperatures ranging from 600 degrees C to 1000 degrees C were determined. The significant microstructural modifications highlighted by changes in porosity due to the sintering process are responsible for the strengthening of MS sample after heating at 600,800 and 1000 degrees C. Moreover, in MS sample after heating to and above 600 degrees C wustite transforms to spinel.

AB  - The remelting of iron and steel scrap in the electric arc furnaces generates the non-hazardous waste – electric arc furnace slag (EAFS), which can be disposed of to appropriate landfills. Currently, this slag found its application in conventional concrete production to improve its mechanical, chemical and physical properties, as an additive to asphalt base mixture and in cement production. In this study we have investigated the effect of alkaline dosage on the strength and thermal resistance of EAFS based geopolymers. The results have shown that these materials are mainly amorphous with some crystal phases remained from the undisolved EAFS such as larnite, gehlenite, wuestite, monticellite, calcite. Compressive strength of these materials is strongly influenced by the alkaline dosage. An increase of NaOH concentration in the interval of 7-10 M leads to the increase of geopolymer’s strength. The maximal compressive strength of EAFS based geopolymer was obtained using the 10 M NaOH. Further increase of alkaline dosage to the value of 13 M NaOH results in the slight decrease of the geopolymer strength. Additionally, depending on the synthesis parameters, EAFS based geopolymers exhibit improved durability in high temperature environments in comparison with conventional cement based materials. All investigated samples exhibit a shrinkage which is attributed to the change of porosity. The mass loss due to the loss of water was also observed. This research was supported by a Ministry of Science of Montenegro under the contract No 01-460.

AB  - Glassy carbon plates were irradiated with 15 key H(+) ion-beam in the fluence range of 1 x 10(16)-3 x 10(18) ion cm(-2). The influence of ion irradiation on surface morphology and topology was examined by scanning electron and atomic force microscopy. Structural changes were monitored by Raman spectrometry, while changes of wettability and the content of surface oxygen complexes were examined by contact angle measurements and temperature programmed desorption. Elastic recoil detection analysis was applied for determination of hydrogen concentration profiles in irradiated samples. Cyclic voltammetry was used for the assessment of the electrochemical properties of modified glassy carbon electrodes. It was concluded that there is critical fluence range (2 x 10(17)-5 x 10(17) ion cm(-2)) inside of which significant changes of glassy carbon properties occur.
