A research team led out of Tianjin University replaced the traditional graphite anode in a lithium-ion battery with a bumpy carbon-based material, which maintains its rechargeable storage capacity down to -31 F. When temperatures fall below freezing, cellphones need to be recharged frequently, and electric cars have shorter driving ranges. This is because their lithium-ion […]

Current Lithium Batteries Could Be 3 Times Better
July 6, 2016 | 2 Comments
Paul Scherrer Institut materials researchers have developed a very simple and cost-effective procedure for significantly enhancing the performance of conventional lithium-ion rechargeable batteries by up to 300%. They said the procedure is scalable in size, so the use of rechargeable batteries would be optimized in all areas of application – whether in wristwatches, smartphones, laptops […]
