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

A battery electrolyte that is solid at normal temperatures yet still conducts ions could make lithium batteries safer and longer lasting by replacing flammable liquids.

CATL has successfully doubled the life of LMB battery cell prototypes with an energy density of 500 Wh/kg. The breakthrough came through the use of a new type of lithium salt for the battery ...

A new article puts artificial intelligence and machine learning on the task of finding new, powerful electrolytes for designing next-generation batteries for electric vehicles, phones, laptops and ...

In a bid to make lithium-ion batteries safer, cleaner, and easier to recycle, scientists at the Institute of Science Tokyo have developed a novel quasi-solid electrolyte. The material, dubbed 3D-SLISE ...

Researchers at Kennesaw State University are developing a sulfur-modified solid electrolyte designed to improve ...

A team of researchers in China has found a way to bring dead lithium-ion batteries back to life, potentially reducing both the amount of waste that’s quickly piling up from spent electric vehicle (EV) ...

Scientists at Argonne National Laboratory have used a machine learning model to identify new chemical “medicines” for batteries. By training the model on a small dataset, the team predicted effective ...

For the test, Consumer Reports used a freezer to cool the car batteries to 0° F. They then rated them based on how long they can provide enough amperage to start a car in the cold. This way, ...
