MXene materials are promising candidates for a new energy storage technology. However, the processes by which the charge ...

A cross-continental team from North China Electric Power University, TU Ilmenau and the University of Central Florida, led by professors Huajun Tian, Yong Lei and Yang Yang, has released a 34-page ...

We take a look at the chemistry behind electrolytes and sports drink science. Sports drink commercials love talking about them, but what are electrolytes, why do we need them, and what happens if we ...

Solid-state batteries are widely viewed as a key technology for the future of energy storage, particularly for electric vehicles and large-scale renewable energy systems. Unlike conventional ...

Electrochemical processes in devices like solar cells, fuel cells, lithium batteries, and water desalination systems rely on the safe, efficient, and robust transport of anions and cations between ...

Lithium metal batteries promise dramatically higher energy density than today’s lithium-ion systems, yet their widespread use ...

Creating battery electrolytes—the component that carries the charged particles back and forth between a battery's two ...

A new technique builds inorganic and polymer battery electrolytes at the same time, in the same vessel. This 'one-pot' in-situ method creates a controlled, homogeneous blend, pairing the conductivity ...

Scientists are looking at artificial intelligence to help revolutionize battery chemistries. A new paper published by Argonne National Laboratory scientists lays out their vision for electrolyte ...

There's a new battery chemistry in town, and it's supposed to have triple the energy density of lithium-ion cells. Share on Facebook (opens in a new window) Share on X (opens in a new window) Share on ...
