Lithium-ion batteries are a kind of rechargeable battery that is charged or discharged through desorption or insertion of lithium ions (Li +) from or into the active material structure. In recent ...
A recent survey of magnesium sacrificial anode cathodic protection systems installed on Bahrain Petroleum Co. (BAPCO) pipelines in 1998 revealed that many of the anodes had failed prematurely and ...
Supercomputing simulations at the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory could change how researchers understand the internal motions of proteins. The team’s results are published in ...
Flexible transparent electrode materials such as conducting polymers, silver nanowires, carbon nanotubes and graphenes are being investigated as possible replacements for conventional brittle ...
Specific capacity of Mason Graphite product compared to the best grade of natural commercial graphite. (Measuring conditions: coin cell CR2325, lithium metal counter electrode, PVDF binder, ...
The latest lithium-ion batteries on the market are likely to extend the charge-to-charge life of phones and electric cars by as much as 40 percent. This leap forward, which comes after more than a ...
Efficient battery technology is a key component in achieving national and European climate targets. Lithium-ion batteries have dominated the market to date, but are increasingly reaching their ...
Solid-state batteries promise to elevate Li-Ion batteries to new highs, thanks to the advantages of using solid electrolytes. Scientists at the University of Texas at Austin have discovered that ...
New research has identified a nanostructure that improves the anode in lithium-ion batteries. Instead of using graphite for the anode, the researchers turned to silicon: a material that stores more ...
