“…The utilization of diatomite meneral as a substrate combines the advantage of both CNTs and diatomite. According to previous investigations [23], we suggest that obtained Sample 2 (Diatomite/CNT) is highly crystallized, retains the porous structure of diatomite and contains fewer impurities, therefore the specific surface area increased in comparison pure diatomite, Sample 1 (Table 1).…”

Energy is a fascinating field that has been developing rapidly for many years. Various articles about alternative energy sources, batteries, and supercapacitors are being published today. This article is about the lithium-ion battery. The batteries come with three specific parts, one of which is the anode. In this area, electrons accumulate, which provide power to electrical devices. Since 2011, graphite anodes have been most commonly used in lithium batteries. Silicon is a tempting proposition for scientists working on next-generation lithium batteries with the potential to hold many times more energy than graphite. Silicon is a promising material for the anodes of lithium-ion batteries of a new generation since, in the process of electrochemical introduction, it can accumulate a large amount of lithium (up to 4.4 Li atoms per Si atom) and provide very high values of specific capacity (4200 mAh/g). The present article overviews the prospects for using diatomaceous earth (DE) (from the Mugalzhar region) in the continuous expansion of energy science and technology. Environmentally friendly silicon dioxide and silicon production, diatomaceous earth has the necessary nano-microstructure, which offers the advantages inherent in existing and new applications in electrochemistry, catalysis, optoelectronics, and biomedical engineering. Silicon, silicon, and silicon-based materials are useful for energy storage and storage applications. Also, for comparison, the surface of the DE was modified with nanotubes. The electrode material has been characterized by EDAX, SEM, BET, and electrochemical techniquesс. The results obtained showed the advantage of modified diatomite (specific surface area – 188.9 m2/g and particular capacity of the battery – 120 mA⋅h⋅g–1) compared to unmodified (specific surface area – 39.1 m2/g and a particular degree of the battery – 100 mA⋅h⋅g –1).

“…In Figure 3 , it can be observed that the surface of the raw HDPE is smooth, in contrast to the surface of the injection mold containing the DE/ZnO composite, which has a rough surface. Additionally, one can observe aggregate elements all over the surface, which corresponds to the DE/ZnO composite, and the EDS results show that Zn and Si elements are well dispersed all over the surface of the test specimen [ 36 , 37 ]. Regarding thermal stability, Figure 4 shows the TGA and its first derivative (DTG) curves.…”

One of the key factors of supporting the rapidly expanding seafood product industry in terms of quality control is the utilization of active packaging materials. Microorganisms are primarily responsible for the perishability and rapid disintegration of seafood. The incorporation of an inorganic compound, such as silica-based diatomaceous earth (DE), and a metal oxide, such as zinc oxide (ZnO), is proposed to develop active packaging materials with excellent antibacterial activity, minimized fishy odor, and brittleness at subzero temperatures. The mechanical, morphological, and physicochemical properties of these materials were investigated. The results show that the addition of DE/ZnO improved the antibacterial activity of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) samples by up to approximately 95% against both gram-positive and -negative bacteria. Additionally, it enhanced the Izod strength and stability at subzero temperatures of the samples. The odor evaporation test revealed that trimethylamine can be minimized in proportion to increasing DE/ZnO composite concentration. As a result, the development of active packaging materials from DE/ZnO composites is an emerging polymeric packaging technology for seafood products, wherein packaging and seafood quality are linked.
