Solid-state batteries pack a lot of energy into a small space, but their electrodes are not good at keeping in touch with their electrolytes. Liquid electrolytes reach every nook and cranny of an ...

Next-generation sodium- and potassium-ion batteries offer resource-unconstrained, cost-effective, and sustainable energy storage systems. In a recent review, researchers from Japan redefine the ...

Team develops a commercially viable and safe gel electrolyte for lithium batteries. Professor Soojin Park, Seoha Nam, a PhD candidate, and Dr. Hye Bin Son from the Department of Chemistry at Pohang ...

Many countries worldwide are increasingly investing in new infrastructure that enables the production of electricity from ...

Lithium-metal batteries (LMBs) are rechargeable batteries that contain an anode (i.e., the electrode through which current flows and a loss of electrons occurs) made of lithium metal. Compared to ...

Current electrochemical theory does not adequately describe realistic platinum electrodes. Scientists at Leiden University ...

In developing a versatile new electrolyte, a team of University of Wisconsin–Madison engineers has taken the next step toward a more efficient, energy-dense battery that could supplant today's ...

The consistently depleting fossil-based resources and the associated climate and environmental issues arising due to their consumption have prompted research on clean and sustainable energy sources ...
