Novel nanostructured tin based alloys for electronic applications and as electrode materials for Li ion batteries using ionic liquid analogues - NOVTINALBEST

Project summary

NOVTINALBEST aims to develop novel scientific and technological routes to reach high performance nanostructured and whiskers resistant Sn binary and ternary alloys with applications in electronic industries especially for advanced packaging technology and as nanostructured anodes for Li ion batteries, from environmentally friendly ionic liquids analogues (ILAs). The influence of graphene addition during electrodeposition to stop whiskers growth, to reinforce Sn alloys lead-free solders and to improve the nanostructured Sn based alloy anode performance will be also addressed. The use of ILAs will allow introducing safer and more efficient production processes with predicted impact both in environmental issues and in SME revenues for the implementation of a more efficient process and the production of novel high performance nanostructured materials. Many industries will greatly benefit from the scientific and technical output of the project.
