Stopping Oxygen Release Makes Safer High Energy Batteries

September 21, 2021 | Leave a Comment

Open Image…Save ImageOpen Image (using #TmpD/ia)… A Tohoku University research group has produced fresh insights about the release of oxygen in lithium-ion batteries, paving the way for more robust and safer high energy density batteries. As rechargeable batteries get more powerful, the chance of batteries overheating – thermal runaway – increases. Seeking a way to make batteries safer, researchers have […]

The Lithium Air Battery Makes Progress

March 28, 2011 | Leave a Comment

The research team at Japan’s National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) can show heat-treated metal-free graphene nanosheets (GNS) have much more stable cycling performance in a Lithium-air battery. This might be important and does show a research lead, because of lithium air’s capacity of 5-10 times that of standard Lithium-ion batteries.  That […]
