Researchers have uncovered the mechanical properties of the nanoscale "thorns" that develop inside lithium-ion batteries, which can cause them to short circuit and die – or worse, such as ...

In chemistry, some problems are so persistent that they are nicknamed “forever.” Perfluoroalkyl and ...

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are primarily thought of as environmental pollutants, and most research ...

Chinese scientists have overcome a long-standing limitation of lithium batteries by developing a new component that may lead ...

VTT testing says Donut Lab’s “solid-state” battery likely matches lithium-ion; energy density measured at 298 Wh/kg, claims ...

A research team affiliated with UNIST has demonstrated that liquid electrolytes, when frozen, can still facilitate lithium-ion conduction sufficient for battery operation—challenging the traditional ...

Based on this new electrolyte system, the team developed an ultra-high specific energy lithium battery with a capacity of 700 watt-hours per kilogram at room temperature. Even in a -50°C environment, ...

Whether it’s to keep the lights on after a natural disaster or just to avoid peak energy rates, more people than ever are adding battery energy storage to their home solar systems. With some 45% of ...
