Sodium Battery Solid Electrolyte Development
November 12, 2020 | 1 Comment
Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… Université de Genève scientists have developed a non-flammable, solid electrolyte that operates at room temperature. It transports sodium – which is found everywhere on earth – instead of lithium. The lithium batteries that power our electronic devices and electric vehicles have a number of drawbacks. The electrolyte – the medium that enables electrons and […]
