The relationship between Mn-Co-Ni-O ceramic slurry formulations and their volatility, rheology and stability, as well as the electrical properties of free-standing ultrathin sheets made from slurries were systematically investigated. The ceramic slurry with high solid content of 60%, viscosity...

With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, fast charging and fast discharging are gradually popularized, which puts forward higher requirements for power battery thermal management. In this paper, a novel power battery thermal management system (BTM) with emulsion as coolant and...

This study investigates whether and how a firm’s greenwashing — the gap between its “green talk” and “green walk” — affects bond pricing. Using 3,810 public bonds issued by U.S. firms, we find a positive relationship between greenwashing and the cost of bonds. We identify the...
