The Organic Battery Technology Gets An Innovation Boost
April 14, 2022 | Leave a Comment
A joint research team from Tohoku University and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) has made a significant advancement towards high-voltage metal-free lithium-ion batteries that use a small organic molecule, croconic acid. The breakthrough moves us closer to realizing metal-free, high-energy, and inexpensive lithium-ion batteries. Organic, metal free, high-energy batteries may be a pathway […]

Making Protein Chemistry Batteries
September 4, 2019 | 1 Comment
Texas A&M University researchers have synthesized several polymers that adopt different conformations, such as a random coil, an alpha helix and a beta sheet, to investigate their electrochemical characteristics. The Texas A&M researchers presented their results at the American Chemical Society (ACS) Fall 2019 National Meeting & Exposition early last week. Proteins are good for […]
