Shibaura Institute of Technology scientists have developed a faster, more efficient way to synthesize CoSn(OH)6, a powerful catalyst required for high-energy lithium – air batteries. CoSn(OH)6 (CSO) is an effective oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst, necessary for developing next-generation lithium – air batteries. However, current methods of synthesizing CSO are complicated and slow. The international […]

ETH Zürich researchers have succeeded in producing uniform antimony nanocrystals and testing them as components of laboratory batteries.  The nanocrystals are able to store a large number of both lithium and sodium ions, operate at high rates and may eventually be used as alternative anode materials in future high energy-density batteries. The materials hunt is […]
